Detroit Lions Coach PO'ed After Lose To Bears

Anybody that watched the Lions game yesterday was probably as dumb founded as the next guy/gal.

How could the Lions start out at such a good clip and just lose it after the first half?

It looked as though it would be a good match up as the Lions matched the Bears point for point, that is until half time when something happens?

Is Schwartz's half time pep rally derailing the team? Is the team out of gas?

Head Coach Jim Schwartz says he's as PO'ed as that next guy."A couple of you astutely observed that I seemed a little ticked off after the game and I’m here to say that after 24 hours I’m probably more ticked off now than I was right after the game."

Did the Lions have fighting chance to win the game or at least stay in it? Schwartz says, “We never gave ourselves a chance to win that game. There were way too many errors in all phases of the game, but particularly in special teams. You can’t win a game when you continually put the defense backed up the way that we did and we allowed scores on special teams.”

One is left to wonder if it's a good idea to come down on such a fragile team outside of the locker room?

As for Lions QB Matthew Stafford, Schwartz says, “Matthew is day-to-day with a knee and we’ll see what he does on Wednesday”

And as far as this weeks upcoming game. Schwartz says it’s possible but he's not giving away any secrets. “I’m not going to comment on (injuries). You know my philosophy on injures as far as commenting on specifics and things like that. He has a knee, he’s day-to-day and we’ll know more on Wednesday."
