[@nancessheppard9784]

It’s almost as if since, St. Brown had so few opportunities the prior week-Ben Johnson felt obligated to get him the ball at the cost of taking touches away from Sam Laporta. With just two games played, There are many teams that are one on one. Don’t get discouraged! Go Lions!

[@Kevinb-z2p]

This reminds me of when you don’t study for a test because you’ll think you’ll be fine then you fail, hard….

[@HakeemTheDream616]

Yeah Ben Johnson didn't have any gameplan on how to attack the Buc's defense it was embarrassing lol

[@AnthonyTucker-sl4zj]

Kevinbz2p; I've always been a natural at taking tests. I took the ACT without a practice-test,with 45 minutes of sleep,as I left a night-club"On-TILT"off of cheap wine!! I had a composite score of 27(out of a possible 36)and on the English,reading and writing portion I scored THIRTY-ONE of a possible 36!! Had I studied and taken a practice test I shudder to think what I might've scored!! 😮

[@toxicfpv304]

completely agree with you on this...... the offense needs to find its groove..... the defense is playing way better than what we watched last year..... it honestly comes down to the muffed end of the first half...... that missed chance to kick a FG cost us the chance at the end of the game to win with a FG..... maybe the game would have played out different but i also think it would have been a big W for us

[@oscarh9546]

disagree. I blame the offensive line & coach & the defensive secondary. Goff got hit 19 times. at the 0.53 mark of this video Goff got smacked with a big hit and at the end of the game 4th & 8, Bucs rush 4 player, 2 hit Goff & caused him to throw a bad pass. Give him protection & Goff will go through the progression & make plays. Also Coach take the field goals . Defensive secondary gave a TD to #14 & wasn't even touched. The lions were up with 3 minutes to go in 3rd quarter, Baker rushed twice from the 30 yards and scored a TD. Never recovered after that. GO LIONS

[@curtisedmonds9933]

The defense only gave up 20 pts. Teams are going to score on you. Blaming the defense for this game is crazy.

[@boblangeland1333]

OMG totally agree where the F was LaPorta? He should have been able to shred a depleted Tampa secondary. No sign of a healthy Khalif Ramond either. Instead let's try to force the ball to Jamo or Saint

[@Bigoski1]

Goff should only be passing 30-35 times per game. When he does it this much the Lions see success

[@steezbreakdowns]

a good balance is key

[@Harpazoed]

You’re so right. The run makes it so the passing game to work. Ben Johnson showed he has a ways to go. I can see us winning 31-17 again Arizona. Goff allowed that BS turn over mess with his mind.

[@erinmobley168]

Those 3 points at the end of the first half absolutely mattered. We had 2 shots at the end of the game to score a touchdown and couldn't. if we had the field goal in the first half we would have only needed 3 at the end of the game, and would have certainly gotten that.

[@bubblegut148]

not really. 1-7 in the redzone absolutely mattered

Crazy thing is our offense ran double the plays of the Buc's offense and still came up with 4 less points how does that even happen?

[@forgivenn1]

If Ragnow was hurt, would that affect your run game or game plan?

[@elblouses128]

Lions put up a ton of offense in this game, per usual. They are still playing like a top 5 offense. But the red zone performance was bad. Something they've been really good at over the past 2 years. Ben needs to get back to his bread and butter (more Monty, more SLP) play calling and Goff needs to handle the pressure better (the line has given up a lot of pressures and QB hits this year, so far. They're ranked below average right now on the year).

[@JacobLakies]

They put up like over 400 yards. The problem is they ran out of steam as soon as the buccs secondary was condensed.

[@amateuratvs3716]

You can not compare this game to the seahawks game last year! Cmon, man, really? Like this was the offenses fault! Ben Johnson, Goff, even the O-line! They gave up 19 pressures against the bucs!

[@jonathonvidoevski3606]

exactly! 55 throws. best rb duo in the league and we don’t run it. dmont against the rams should have shown that all you need to do is run it. Defense isn’t the problem at all. the o line could have done a lot better aswell.

great analysis steez. some of these comments are crazy. lions will be just fine. these are problems that can be fixed.

[@markb3451]

Buccaneers defensive scheme is legit. You give Todd Bowels enough looks at an offense and he will figure out how to stop it. Look at what happened to the Chiefs in the Super Bowl. The Chiefs smoked the Bucs during the regular season. They put up 450 yards and 27 points. It was 27-10 with 6 minutes left in the 4th. Then comes the Super Bowl. 340 yards and 9 points. Bowels saw the lions twice last year and I guarantee he had this game circled on his calendar. He was ready.

[@poopeycooper89]

[@steezbreakdowns]

What parts?

[@theo1776]

This game should have been won by the Lions. Lions outgained Tampa by a mile in Rushing yards and passing yards. Anyone that says this game is on Jared Goff doesn't know football. 1) Tampa scored a TD on a busted coverage ( not Goff's fault ). 2) Goff's interception on his first pass to Jameson Williams was defensive pass interference which was never called by the refs. Jameson WIlliams was breaking in well beyond the five yards where contact is allowed and it messed up the timing on the throw by Goff. 3) Goff's second interception was because he was being pressured up the middle and threw the ball to the inside of the right hash marks to Tim Patrick who was just signed from the practice squad. It was an obvious miscommunication where Goff though he would be breaking in but he went the other way. Not Goff's fault. 4) Lions O-line up the middle played poorly. Ragnow, Zeitler and Glasgow had trouble dealing with the pressure from Tampa's blitz happy D-line/linebackers. Not Goff's fault. To be fair, Goff had a bad game but the Lions still should have won this game. Dan Campbell lost this game for the Lions with the blown too many men on the field at the end of the first half. The Lions should have scored three points right there. Then the Lions would have only needed three to win which they would have easily gotten at the end when driving to try and score a td instead of kicking a game winning fg.

You are pretty much spot on except your opinion on dan dumbbell. He gambles with a fake punt but doesn't try the 60 yard field goal? Then the end of the half was all dumbbell.

[@willcordelo9582]

Steez Breakdowns, You accuse some of your fans for not knowing what they are talking about, but you need to check yourself and make sure you really saw what you think you saw! 1. You said on Goff's first pick the Bucs got a free turnover because of a no pass interference call! Now, take off your rose colored glasses and rewatch the play! The Buc defender you are accusing never moved! He never took a single step! And the Lion receiver plowed right into him! In fact, if it wasn't picked, it could have been OPI. It was a horrible throw by Goff and a worse route by the receiver. That sir, is why it wasn't called! Yet, you kept harping on this over and over in your video while you were clearly wrong! 2. Then you said the one that was called against Arnold was "weak," but in the same breath, you said, "He DID grab his facemask though." LOL, seriously? If a defender grabs a receivers facemask as the ball is coming down, that's NOT a weak PI call bro! 3.Aaron Glenn: Ok, you said on defense "the only play you could be mad about was the long pass to Godwin." Then let me ask you. After the Lions finally took the lead 16-13, do you remember what happened? I'll remind you. The defense got Baked! Mayfield answered with a TD of his own in only 3 plays! A pass, then two Mayfield runs up the middle! The 3rd play was a 11 yard Mayfield TD run! But yeah Glenn was "phenomenal." Stop making Lions fans look bad by being such a homer! The Bucs weren't given anymore than the Lions were. Go back and watch the Carlton Davis no call against Godwin. He held Godwin first with one hand, let him go, then held him with the other! Plain as day! Maybe Carlton felt the need, because that is the only way he stopped Godwin all day long. Before you cry about something and put it on your channel, maybe you should double-check to see if you saw what you think you saw. And not just hear what the announcers see or ONLY what your biased eyes allow!!!

[@steezbreakdowns]

I was saying “but he did hold is facemask” agreeing with the call. I felt like besides the facemask it was weak PI and even with it he only really grabbed it for a second and didn’t pull him. I still think it was PI tho. For Jamo on Goff’s first pick, I know he ran into the defender, and I know the defender didn’t move. But I think that is still PI. The DB isn’t aloud to make contact with the WR post 5 yards. I’m not sure how the rules would rule a WR running his route and a DB is there. I think it’s PI but overall it’s just unlucky. And for Glenns defnese sure that drive wasn’t the best. But overall the D was good!

[@willcordelo9582]

@@steezbreakdowns It wasn't about grabbing the facemask, in fact I don't think he grabbed it at all. It's about "facemasking" which is putting his hand on the facemask blocking the view of an incoming pass. You can't do that. On the first play, yes he was outside 5 yards, but you are entitled to your space. There can't be PI if you never move. In fact, even if he moves the receiver can't just plow into a DB. Think about it, otherwise there would be receivers running into defenders on every pass!
