Here we are, going to Cancun the first week of January. It sucks,\u201d Skipper expressed, via the Detroit News.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-4\">The team was forced to reshuffle the offensive line when All-Pro center Frank Ragnow abruptly retired.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-5\">Christian Mahogany is only in his second season and the team drafted Tate Ratledge, Miles Frazier in 2025.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-6\">The 31-year-old felt he could have done a better job of bringing along the younger offensive lineman.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\">Skipper noted, \u201cPart of my job is pulling some of these young guys along, and I didn\u2019t do a good enough job with that, clearly. If I can get these guys a little bit better every day, if I can do a little bit more. Clearly, I did not do enough, right? Being on this roster, we didn\u2019t get it done.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-8\">Detroit had expectations of following up a 15-win season last season with another run in the postseason.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-9\">\u201cI don\u2019t know how else to say it,&#8221; Skipper commented. &#8220;I think we all need to take a good, long look in the mirror after this, reflect, figure out how we can improve and give the City a team that they\u2019re proud of again, because this year was bulls**t.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-10\">Linebacker Jack Campbell also struggled to find the right words to describe not being in the playoffs this season.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-11\">\u201cI mean, trying to think of the right word,&#8221; Campell said. &#8220;Obviously, it\u2019s disappointing just based on what I think that we\u2019re capable of, but again, you\u2019ve got to go do it. We didn\u2019t do it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-12\">The Pro Bowl linebacker expressed he would take responsibility for the play of the defense, which did not make enough spark plays.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-13\">&#8220;Just honestly super frustrated. I don\u2019t really have much to say. I\u2019ll take all the heat, just defensively, Defensively we played all right, but we didn\u2019t make enough spark plays,&#8221; said Campbell. &#8220;We didn\u2019t get any turnovers. In those types of games, we have to do that.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-14\">&#8220;It\u2019s on me, just frustration because I know how good this team can be and I know everyone puts into it, but you\u2019ve got to go do it.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"inline-text-15\"><\/h2>\n<figure><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Detroit Lions veteran accepts responsibility for poor season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":40559,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-40558","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-detroit-lions"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 -
