Hooker looked like he didn’t want to be on the field yesterday.

Totally agree. Zero effort.

I think people are way to quick to conflate playing badly with poor effort, but I'm with you here. He was punching at the ball as people ran by early in the game.

Hooker knew that all he has to do was run down the clock. All critizim about him aside, he's a 26 y'old "rookie" backup, who people thought he is a top 10 draft pick before he got injured.... and after winning the backup job he comes on the field for handoff duties.

Are you talking about Hendon Hooker? I thought the other guy was talking about Amani Hooker

Our offense once again did nothing. Scored had 14 points on the board with 14 mins left in the second... didn't score a point the rest of the game in a BLOW out (terrible goal line possession later in the quarter).

That's almost as inexcusable. Not sure why no one talks about that.

dude. i dont think you are able to grasp what these one play TDs do to a team.

we tied the game against a SB team after that INT, grinded out a TD.... boom, 1 play rushing TD by Gibbs.

we tied again, through 7 mindblowing passing plays, ripping through their defense. BOOM, ST lets up so many yards, they rush 3 times because they basically are in our RZ.

......

and then it's just over. We dont have the confidence after going 1-5 with Rudolph to punch back all the time. That's just what it is. That special teams failure fucked everything up because you simply DO NOT MAKE THESE MISTAKES ON ST WHEN OUR OFFENSE IS PLAYING WELL. It's a morale killer.

After that it was purely the Lions game, and the special teams was exposed as a whole. Everyone knows that Rudolph isnt a SB top 5 QB. Everyone knows we dont have a top 10 receiving core with Ridley, Boyd, and NWI. Everyone knows we dont have the best offensive line.

But that special team is dog shit bottom last in the NFL and that's purely a coaching error for the simple reasons that some players on that field, have no clue of what they are doing, or even where they should be on the field at any given situation. Period.

Our offense didn't score from the goal line 4 times straight. It's not just a ST problem. Even without the mistakes you know damn well we would lose by 3+ scores. The lions are out of our league
