Record for most yards in a game is 735.
If the Lions top that, I'd say Capers is gone tomorrow.

Yep. I think the Lions have ran a total of about 5 different plays today.
Capers head is so far up his ****ing ass....
Unless the offense comes to life on the very next drive, that one is going to do it.
No way to spin this. This is mismatch. The lions are almost on a 700 yard pace. Unbelievable.
Gotta admit, starting to see some dogging now.
That is inexcusable.

No real reason to believe the offense is capable of getting anything done. A fourteen point lead appears insurmountable.

I think we can all agree Moss would be a great choice. He has the MLB's playing lights-out football on a consistent basis.
Would like to see:
-some runs by Starks to the outside
-MM call some plays moving the pocket
-short passes tithe TE
Lions kicker is like most of us posters here.....looking around for somebody to blame.
This pattern has repeated on every stop of Dom's career as a HC/DC. His defenses start out well, and then get worse every season after reaching a peak near the top of the league. I'd have to guess it's a combination of him becoming too complex/cute with his scheme as things improve, and being a poor communicator in the locker room, someone that the guys just tune out once things go poorly.

Nah. There will be the usual balloon spit about it not being Capers fault. Then he will be ushered out after the season. Unless he resigns.
Sorry BK. But Capers is not all that great. Getting tired of his sht!

The Saints don't have any more talent then the Packers right now on defense. You have to be out of your mind to honestly say that this group can't at least be a mid-ranked defense. Dom is coaching for his job in the second half. I've been one of the biggest Capers backers on this board for years, but he really has to figure out some way to save this team's season in the second half.
I think about 90% of the board is on board with your thoughts.
Capers coaching for his job in 2nd half. Absolutely ridiculous this defense!
The one thing I'll say is this defense was great against the run early in the season. WTF happened!?!?
...and if you said it last year, you were wrong. Saying it this year, you're right.
You can't be predicting rain for 10 straight years, then when it rains scream "SEE!?!? I'm RIGHT!"
....and what about the offense? Who gets the kick in the nuts there? MM?
MM should thank his lucky stars he's gotten to coach 2 of the greatest QBs in the history of the NFL. We all see how his teams look without these 2 guys, and it ain't pretty. Lost, disorganized, disinterested...

Capers is not only playing CJ in single coverage but playing Shields soft. That 15 yard pass play is there alllll day.
MM bears blame during this streak as well. He has his team playing with NO sense of urgency and is running this offense scared. It's just a mess right now and I cannot believe one player in Rodgers out translates in mass suck at every other phase of the game.
I couldn't agree more in that MM bears alot of blame for this mess. It's like he's given up. His playing calling sucks. He is the head coach, and he has to be held accountable for the way this team is playing now. Him and TT have screwed up the backup QB situation big time as well.

Offensive line is mostly to blame. WRs also aren't nearly as good as some people imagine them to be. Rodgers makes them shine.
Pakz, I would say the problem with O are the injuries. The D has no fkin excuses!

MM has been riding Rodgers coat tails. He looks totally lost out there without Rodgers.
Honestly, why does it ALL fall on Capers? McCarthy is the offensive "genius" shouldn't some of the blame fall on his shoulders? I don't care if Rodgers is injured, you figure he would come up with something to win one of these games. There's plenty of blame to go around.
Didn't we have a game earlier this year where we were like a +4 in the TO margin and lost?
y'all see that play by Shields? And that play by Williams earlier? And that play by Perry?
That's talent. This defense has talent. All of you who disagree need to get a ****ing grip.

Cincy.
Ok. How does Newhouse get to wear 74 and 69?
It wasn't our year fella's. Venting with you all has been therapeutic. Enjoy the holidays.

To be fair, hard to make a Hawk/Jones duo be any good. No clue how Moss would do as a DC though, don't really want to find out
I've seen better performances coming out of Jacksonville.
I'm not a fan of a "player's coach" at the HC position, but defenses generally seem to thrive when they have a rah-rah type DC lining them up and slapping them on the back.
