Trust me, I'm not in any disagreement that Barry needs to go.  We all know what Barry's gameplan is.  I'm going to sit back with a soft box and wait for a QB to make a mistake.  But when QBs don't make mistakes and opposing teams can run the ball effectively, the opposing team is going to win.

Too many NFL QB will do just fine if they are playing with a strong running game compliment and the ability to do play action, boot leg and misdirection that builds off the run game.  Staying in 2nd and short/medium and 3rd and short is easy living for an NFL QB

not sure MLF has the sack to do it

He doesn't

[Mr. Fussnputz]

Apparently, Barry is committed to a 2-4-5 defense. Teams are going to run the ball against that all day and all night. The few times he goes to a 3-4 they get some stops. The 2-4 leaves the ILBs pretty exposed too. I just don't get what Barry is thinking. 

MLF is a mystery. Jones should be touching the ball 25 times a game. He's all we have at rb, really. Then with the O-line hurting, and a fierce Lion pass rush coming in, he goes with a deep route offensive game plan. He was out coached in another big game, and that's becoming a disturbing pattern.

LaFleur actually has no sack at all.

[{Family Ghost}]

We'll see if LaFleur has any balls .. sounded like he was pretty disgusted with the inability to stop the run.  Basically said they need to commit to stopping it an make teams beat you over the top.  Said you can't keep doing the same thing over and over and expect different results.  Now they did hold Monty to about a 3.8 yard average tonight, but they picked up about evert big first down and blew us out in the redzone.

I mean, we're at a 50% rate of giving up 200 yards rushing so far this season lmao. If Josh Jacobs uses us as a "get right game" and Barry doesn't get fired during the bye week, MLF can go this offseason with him.

3.8 yards is not great, but 3.8 x 3 gets you the needed 10 yards and a first down

Precisely.  And I've got to give a TON of praise to Ben Johnson for consistently putting Jared Goff in those advantageous situations.

Fire this ******* retread

GB had 2 drives in the early 2nd half that worked to get stops.   was that what GB did or what DET didn't do?   

seemed like Detroit got rolling pretty easily after the 2nd TD and that was it

[Zycho32]

Honestly, I'd love to see some coach or player break etiquette and completely diss Barry on record. Something along the lines of "I took that chance because I knew [Barry] didn't have the sack to stop me, and I was right."

[beekay414]

If we do fire Barry and our next DC hire is some mediocre retread DC again, we're 100% not serious about our coordinators and only look to save money there. There's no reason we shouldn't push for someone with high upside that could land a HC gig. It's sackless to hire guys that you think can stick around for a long time at a coordinator position. You should WANT guys that will ascend into HC roles.

IIRC, I think Detroit got a little full of themselves early on.  They got away from what they were doing well.

I've been saying for a couple years now that he is a cuck.

He's soft and not a natural leader. People don't wanna run through walls for him.

Him not firing Joe the trashcan Barry just proves it as a fact.
