I rewatched this drive and just noticed the announcers repeatedly call out how heavily Detroit was stacking the box & selling out on the run. They were chuckling talking about the LBs lining up 2 yards off the LoS on 1st & 10 like it’s a goal-line stand. Really accentuates how poor Getsy is at anticipating / reacting to the defense

Even on 3rd down, I get that Fields’ first read was to Scott and he made the right read + a great throw, but it is completely asinine to call a play that relies on a 50-yard bomb to our rookie WR4 to convert on 3rd & 9.

The lack of situational awareness is truly astounding.
