Game stats would tell you the final score was an inversion of reality. Almost every stat favored the Seahawks., except for one. You guessed it. Stupid penalties chipped in an additional 30 yards on top of the other 516 yards by Seahawds just for the ‘hell’ of it. Deep pass defense needs remedial education on basic rules, especially what constitutes ‘holding’.
In an almost schizoid manner, Lion’s offense made almost every opportunity count. J. Goff warrants all the kudos cast in his direction. Beside pass completions, he took ‘sacks’ rather than making ill advised pass attempts. Balance of attack was augmented with great rushing efforts by Gibbs and Montgomery.
In what has become fashionable as part of Lion’s play, at least one ‘razzle-dazzle’ play is expected and fans were not disappointed. Surely, Vince Lombardi is turning over in his grave with the oscillating Lion’s performance half to half and or game to game.
Maybe the Lions have created a new paradigm on how achieve the ultimate NFL goal. Not for the faint of heart who have watched the last 66 years of rebuilding.
