We need help with the O-line first and foremost. Goff needs room and space to make a decision and deliver the ball.
It’s easy for me to say as a professionally ignorant nobody, I know and understand.
There are several ways to accomplish this, of course, such as free agency, current player development and future acquisition (UDF or veteran) by free agency and/or amateur draft.
JG had a bad game but he had Eagles in his face all night. Our short handed defense was stellar. I don’t recall any other team stopping the tush push like we did tonight.
Aggressiveness on offense didn’t work tonight but it’s what got us here from 3-13 4 years ago. As bad as it feels right now, I’m confident we’ll be fine.
What would the score have been if we kicked field goals instead of going for 4th downs? Still room for improvement. Defense deserves credit for keeping the Lions in a close game.
I know there was one for sure in the red zone plus the penalty point, that's and additional 4 and if there was another red zone 4th down, that could have been another 3 which would have tied, even with the Eagles defense.

Sorry for my incomplete fat fingered thoughts here. I hit post before I properly edited my opinion

Best O line?? Good QB??

Just going by memory there were only 1 or 2 4th downs that would have been gimmes considering the wind and the extra long extra point miss.
I know there was one for sure in the red zone plus the penalty point, that's and additional 4 and if there was another red zone 4th down, that could have been another 3 which would have tied, even with the Eagles defense.
I thought most of the 4th downs were closer to mid field since my memory is the Lions kept giving really short fields to the Eagles.
Live by the sword, die by the sword I guess.
