While Lydia (my DAUGHTER, Dave) and I walked to the stadium. I told her if the Rams end up losing, the Packers need to punch the Lions in the mouth quick and hard. Make Lions give up. And basically was just telling her, if Lions have nothing to play for, you gotta step on their throat early and squash any fight that could be in that dog.
That fourth quarter is why I feared a Lions team that didn't have anything to play for. That hook and lateral on 2nd and 17? Going for it on 4th instead of taking FG? Maybe Lions play the same exact way if Rams beat Seahawks? It just felt like they were more loose and Packers more tight.
I believe it was the 2:00 minute warning and they played Jump Around. The Packers bench was stoic, no one moving. The Lions bench? They were jumping up and down and waving to get louder at the fans behind their bench, which, I am sad to say was littered with Honolulu blue.
I wasn't really happy with going for it so early on the wrong side of the field too. I kept saying throw it to Christian. The guy just kept getting open. It was insane. The Lions fan in front of me was in a panic because of how wide open he was at times.
I think Romeo Doubs had what would have been a TD if he catches it. The ball looked perfectly placed too. That one hurt.
There's just something wrong with this team.
