Lions rush two and still get pressure. That's actually pretty clever if you're confident you can get at least some heat inside...and I'm sure you feel good about that with Schlottmann and Ingram. You have three OL rendered useless.

On the flip side, big kudos to Kirk and KJ for konnecting where the Lions had NINE in coverage at the sticks. JJ was open too. What the hell were the others doing?

Dropping 9 into coverage and still an open guy getting the 1st.  Guess it was a fail on both sides.

So at one time this game, Brandel was out who's the backup to a starter. The backup center was in. Ingram is struggling. Yet they gave Cousins some time to throw. It wasn't like the Lions brought heat consistently rushing 2 guys, lol. You aren't throwing for over 400+ yards if you don't get a pocket and the other team is getting consistent pressure on rushing 2 guys.

Looking at this again, the Lions guessed on this play. Or knew. I think this was intended to go to Hockenson and you can see that's where Kirk looks first. Wisely, he went through his progressions and found KJO.
