The Detroit game was a microcosm.

[Ellard80]

Of the entire season.

Quite often 10 yards away, a call away from either winning a close one or blowing an opponent out.

The Bengals game - one bogus overturn and we lose by 3...

49ers game - we let them score at the end of the half - Kyren drops a pass right into the 49ners hands.

Steelers game on the 35 with a 1st down about to make the game a two-score game and come away with nothing....

Ravens game - driving down the field for winning TD - we can't get the play in and half to burn a time out - settle for a tie.

Detroit game - on the edge of FG ranger or better..... dropped pass by Higbee, then questionable calls and knocked out of scoring range.

We also had multiple games where we make a play here or there and it's a bigger blowout (redskins, saints ect)

In the end, we just don't have enough talent on both sides to separate or finish the games - or to overcome the consistently shitty officiating.

With some fee money for next year, this should be a different story.

We have a lot of reason for optimism. What happened yesterday was our floor going into next season. This was our rebuilding year and we still finished 10-7, made the playoffs, and of the teams that were eliminated yesterday, were the only one that was really competitive. A break here or there and we're playing next week.

This season showed us where we need to shore things up, and unlike some previous offseasons, we have the BOTH the cap space and the draft capital to do so.

Man, I can't wait until the new league year starts.

Missed extra point from tying game with Detroit. Hard to say what happens if it goes to OT.
Kicking game cost us all year!

We're we watching the same game? Maher made all his kicks.

Probably got confused with the Cowboys game earlier.

I can’t believe Mason Crossbar costed us another game!

 

[Spider2YB]

Yeah it honestly felt like we had the exact same red zone experience in like 4-5 other games. The Offense would march with ease down to like the 7 yard line and just stall out.

Could be, I thought we missed a kick.

Time to clean the old beer goggles! Lol

No ... two Stafford touchdown passes, and three short Maher field goals were the Rams' 23 points.

Each team had three offensive possessions into the Red-Zone. The Lions had three TDs, and the Rams had three FGs. Aside from a couple awful non-calls against the Lions, THAT was the difference in the game.
