that was some impressive self-destruction.
Especially right after they posted the graphic showing that the Lions have lost 7 straight Thanksgiving Day games including 6 games decided by one score and three of those losses were to the Bears.

CeeDee Lamb has dropped two balls on two drives that were right in his hands

Well, talk about your rookie quarterback, screwing up clock management, and the head coach
That was bad. But I put it more on the coach than Williams.

I don’t know. Certainly the coach takes blame, but freaking williams was casually letting the clock wind down before he got the ball snapped definitely falls on him as well. Once everybody was set, it took him like another six seconds to snap the ball.

Rookie qb with a dumb mistake. However you have an entire coaching staff watching this unfold. At the very least they should have called a time out with no less than 12 seconds.

Dumb. If that was use we would already have JG tied to a stake and starting a fire.

Man I hate mike McCarthy. he is a terrible play caller. he should have been fired on the spot after that last sequence. literally needed 5-10 yards to give his kicker a chance and he leaves one of his best offensive players off the field for that sequence.

Oh, I get it. He obviously lost track of the clock. But you have grown ass adult coaches who can call a time out just sitting there watching the clock bleed away. No wonder they hate Eberflus in Chicago.

Generally you take a timeout after your QB gets smoked and have receivers downfield but he should’ve snapped it sooner. Just seems like a poorly coached team all around.
