I thought that the saying goes, “They have the Heart of a Lion”. All we had today was a huge bunch of pussies out there with very few exceptions.
Well there was no heart out there after the first half today, that’s for sure!
Never did I think that I would see a professional team of any kind quit. Yup, I said quit!
The Lions in the 3rd quarter of the game against Baltimore Sunday absolutely quit playing and just started going through the motions.
Ask Coach Schwartz, he saw it too! That’s what all of that screaming and hollering on the sidelines was about from the Head Coach.
It will be more than interesting next week to see what signals he sends in to those he saw only doing the bare minimum today.
Can you imagine the number of new faces that we’re going to see on the Lions next year? Oh my!
I think it’s a great time now to only play the 1st and 2nd year players and see if you can find some lightening in the bottle. Can’t we find a few guys who want to play, that maybe can play?
Everyone was calling for Stanton instead of Culpepper, come on folks, no quarterback in the free world, not even Bobby Lane in his prime or Joe Namath on his best day could have won with today’s display of ineptness!
Do you think that the Lions’ players back up to the pay window when they collect their paychecks? Do they really have the balls to look at the Fords’ and think that they gave 100 percent and “Earned” their paycheck?
The “Quit” in the 3rd quarter was a disaster! This was one of the worst debacles that I have ever seen, of any team, in any professional sport!
At least 99 percent of the previous Lions’ teams never quit like they did today.
I could have ran for 100 yards in the second half against the Lions defense today! No one wanted to hit anybody and nobody certainly wanted to get hit!
I hate to say this, but there can’t be anyone safe from the chopping block. They need to just clean house, the entire house, and with very few exceptions! At least bring in people who will give you a performance full of heart, because all of us who live and pull for the Lions have to be totally embarrassed from this horrible, unemotional performance Sunday.
Gosh all mighty, they don’t even have Millen to blame for the performance either, do they? Now who are they going to blame?
Do any of them have the balls to point that finger at themselves or have the guts to look in a mirror and say they gave a 100 percent Sunday?
