Did The Coaching Staff Learn From Past Mistakes?

After the 58 yard touchdown by CMC yesterday, he was clearly in pain after the tackle.  He came down funny and may have hit his head.  On the sideline he dismissed the trainers twice, according to the announcer.  Then next thing you know he was in the medical tent.  It turns out everything was fine, but did the coaching staff force him to go in the tent to get checked out.  If so, this is different than how they have approached this in the past.  Because of the injury with Cam and how he "hid" it from the coaching staff, are they now not taking players at their word when it comes to injuries?

Ron said CMC came up to him after that and said "I'm ready to go back in the game" and Ron told him to sit back down.  So maybe, yeah he is learning a little bit.  I was glad to see him keep CMC out of the game when it was obvious that we were going to hang on and win.  Getting Reggie in the game and getting him so carries is a win-win for everybody.

Yeah, I'd call that a step in the right direction.

Yep.  Game was well in hand.  Good call by Ron.

    • This is factually incorrect. He was a two time Pro Bowler with the Rams and in fact statistically he was better with the Rams in his best season there than he has been with the Lions(could change with this season). Some of his per game stats have creeped into being marginally better with the Lions but there have not been dramatic differences in his play, actually. The biggest reason that McVay and he ended up splitting was McVay didn't think he could win a title with Goff. TBH.....so far he was 100% correct. Stafford almost immediately won them a SB and Goff in a historic run was about 70% of the reason the Lions faltered in the NFC championship game. He missed critical throws all over the first half and throughout the second half that he normally wouldn't. He choked. So, until Goff actually does win a SB...McVay has been right.
    • they have the best defense they've had in a long time...probably the best in the reid/mahommes era.  but i think they are probably the most beatable they've been in a while as well. record doesn't exactly bear that out, but they just don't look as strong on offense as they usually do. lots of reasons for that, like trying to build chemistry with newer receivers, but right now they just aren't as frightening as they typically are. i mean they'll probably win tomorrow, but i don't see them as the strongest team in the AFC right now. 
    • He will likely remain unsigned the remainder of this season(barring someone being in a pure QB panic AND making poor decisions) largely due to the cost. I do think he will get multiple offers to be a backup QB and perhaps a couple to potentially start this offseason.  I will continue to beat the same horse over and over.....he should go to a successful team with an established starter. If I were him, go to somewhere like SF, LAR, etc. Somewhere with a successful QB coach and brilliant offensive mind and ALSO a set situation at QB. Ride the pine and adjust for a year or two. Chill and be around better culture. I would suggest the same for Bryce but he will be limited to wherever we can trade him.
