Execution eats playcalling for lunch

[droopdog7]

So tired of hearing people complain about playcalling. Fans just need to know one thing. If it works, it was a great call. If it didn’t, then it was terrible.

Nahh. Not running The best RB in the league when you have second and goal with only a few yards to go. Is just bad playcalling. Whether it works or not.

Yep it cost us last year and darn near cost us today.

You do understand coaches have just as much responsibility in the execution as the players don't you?

If only Austin caught that early pass in the endzone.

So pretty much the entire of national media as well as former players and coaches, and people with eyes say the playcalling is awful, but thankfully we have your expert guidance and tutelage.

Droopdog7 - one thing you have to understand though. Win or lose - in here 60% will still say everything sucked. Running, passing, coaching, front office, hot dog guy etc.

First of all, I’ve seen people blame pretty much every aspect of the offense, not just the playcalling. That just tells you there is nothing definitive.

As for people blaming the playcalling, yeah, lots of people just talk out of their a**. Either way, I’m not listening any take on playcalling unless it’s accompanied with film study.

This is the nfl. You’re not just going to ram the ball in from the six yard line. And had we tried and failed, you best believe the playcallet would have been killed.

Like I said, if it works it’s great. If not, the call was dumb.

Wish I could like this more than once. And poor execution goes to coaching as much as play calling does, so people can still ***** about the coaches.

Execution is important but it is one thing to execute versus a stacked box to stop a dive and run a dive and its another to execute an off tackle play against the same defense.

Nope. If we fail with the strength of the team, we're not good enough. I can live with that.

They won today in spite of the coaching, not because of the coaching, in my opinion. I'm not even going to discuss the zones in the fourth quarter.

I hate not being aggressive on D in the last 5 minutes. And I hate playing for a 40 yard FG with a new kicker. I know it worked and they're all heroes, but I still think it was a bad choice.

Perhaps, a worthy discussion vs a Top 5 defense, feels kinda uninspiring vs DET.

Linehan apologist....play calling still sucked. First and goal from the 5, what do we do??

You would...lol!! You know our coaches are bad, that's why you laid low last week.

We run for half a yard then bunch of people *****ing because we didn’t run it two more times.

I laid low last week because I have a low tolerance for whining. I always come back by Wed of the week after a loss in case anybody who has a history of disagreeing with me wants to talk seriously about the game. But I don't consider it my responsibility to babysit grown men and women who handle disappointment badly. We've got guys around here who can't even tolerate a close win. The way the league is setup, that's insanity.

Uh, yeah!!!

Didn't Detroit have the #1 ranked pass defense coming into the game?
