The crew react to more of Vrabel's postgame from last night. Did he have an issue with the play-calling or are we reading into things?

Ben DiNucci, Garett Bolles and Courtland Sutton all gave their thoughts on the idea of Davis Webb calling plays instead of Sean Payton. If Payton does give up play calling, will be 100% his decision or will Greg Penner be involved in the decision? Payton hasn't publicly commented on if Webb will be calling plays, but does it seem like it is going to happen? Plus, the NBA trade deadline is tomorrow afternoon. James Harden was dealt to Cleveland and Giannis Antetokounmpo appears to be on the move as well. If the Timberwolves were to acquire Giannis, would that make them a more dangerous team than the Nuggets? Finally, a quick discussion about Olympic hockey and how Team Canada representatives feel about playing for their country. Check out Hot Takes with Eric Goodman and Troy Renck!

In this episode Joe Daniel and Daniel Chamberlain discuss the finer details to defensive play calling. They talk about the Three Levels of play calling, how you can always know what play to call, and how to use your own weakness to stay a step ahead.

7:30am - Jeremy and Joe look into TJ Watt's comments on the Bills play calling following the game.

Thanksgiving Loss Autopsy The Detroit Lions stumbled on the holiday stage. A 60-minute reminder that thin margins decide NFL games. The Green Bay Packers seized the key points. Detroit let them. The box score looked even. Yards and first downs were a wash. Penalties matched. Time of possession tilted late to the Lions. The first half belonged to Green Bay. The difference lived on the edges. Fourth downs. The Packers converted. The Detroit Lions did not. That flipped field position, momentum, and mood at Ford Field. Detroit's third-down efficiency hid a quieter problem. Too many calls short of the sticks on third and long. That set up fourth and manageable. It also invited disaster when the conversion failed. Fourth Down Philosophy Under Fire Aggression is a Detroit Lions brand. It has paid off. It also burned them here. Two fourth-down calls defined the loss. The first was telegraphed. The formation screamed run. Jamir Gibbs lined up deep. Offensive linemen dug their knuckles. Green Bay read it. Everyone in the building did. The play crashed into a wall. The second call was sharp. Roll Jared Goff. Move the launch point. Punish a pass rush that had battered the offensive line. Jameson Williams streaked across the field. He shook free. The throw and the catch were not clean. Both the quarterback and receiver owned it. The concept worked. The execution failed. That theme echoed all afternoon. Play Calling, Execution, and Bandwidth The Detroit Lions Podcast framed a broader issue. Dan Campbell taking over offensive play calling energized the Washington game. It also put strain on the operation. Since the switch, precision has slipped on both sides of the ball. Missed assignments. Late details. Detroit's edge in the margins dulled. Is the head coach stretched thin? In-game play design demands focus. So does clock, fourth down math, and defensive oversight. If assistants cannot carry more weight, small cracks widen. Thursday showed it. Detroit's tendencies were on tape. Green Bay anticipated and attacked them. The offense toggled between conservative third-down calls and aggressive fourth-down tries. That split personality cost possessions and points. Next Up: Dallas Test, Urgent Fixes The Lions visit Dallas next week. The Cowboys punish mistakes. Detroit must recalibrate before then. Throw to the sticks on third down. Break self-scout tendencies. Dress runs with motion and constraint plays. Use Gibbs as a decoy and a finisher. Protect Goff with movement and rhythm. Lean into Jameson Williams' speed with clear reads and layups. This roster wins with detail and conviction. Thursday lacked both. The solutions are not exotic. They are disciplined. Balance fourth-down aggression with smarter third-down design. Vary formation tells. Clean up timing and landmarks. If the Detroit Lions hit those notes, the path sharpens again. If not, Dallas will hear the same music Green Bay did. And play it louder. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4S3YWKlSTo #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #greenbaypackers #fourth-downaggression #third-downefficiency #jamirgibbs #jaredgoff #jamesonwilliams #dancampbellplaycalling #self-scouttendencies #passrush #dallascowboys Learn more about your ad choices.
