Week Seventeen: Detroit Lions (11-4) @ Dallas Cowboys (10-5)

[Mr.TaterSalad]

****ing cheated in Dallas again.  Just unreal.

[number20]

Good play call. Throw was just off

 

[MichiganCardinal]

He reported. I have no doubt.

[MichiganCardinal]

GOD FORBID the Cowboys lose tonight. 

[TP_Fan]

And when it matters most they throw it to James Mitchell.  On an out route.  A throw Goff hasn’t made all night.  I hate Ben Johnson.  I can’t stand that guy.   James Mitchell has no business on the field in that play.  And decker didn’t report.  They weren’t coached right.   

[MichiganCardinal]

The Lions won this game until the refs said they didn’t. **** them.

It was a 2-pt pass to Taylor Decker... but the refs called it back saying he didn't report.

That’s just one call I can’t see the refs getting wrong. It means a ref would be outright lying.  

[Motor City Sonics]

You know what,  Brass Balls on Coach.  I love it.  May not have gotten the win tonight, but he sent the world a message that he's not backing down and I love it.     Defense balled out tonight too.   You've seen what Dallas has done to other defenses at home this year.    Good job.    No moral victories, but damn, our coach is biting kneecaps, even in a loss.   Good.   About time we had that kind of fire around here. 

[Sports_Freak]

CeeDee Lamb has over 40 fantasy points. My opponent on the championship round has him. Bummer...

[Mr.TaterSalad]

This is the first time all year I felt truly upset for this team. They deserved to win and got boned at the end. 

[chasfh]

I hate being the foil for hero games. 

[Motor City Sonics]

You don't need any further evidence that the refs and the league are in Dallas' back pocket.       

[Sports_Freak]

Lions can hold their head high. Was a great game.

Well. He wasn’t covered either.  Even if he reported he would have been ineligible. This was an epic coaching meltdown.  Kick the ****ing extra point and go to OT. 
 

The replay clearly shows decker didn’t report.  And was uncovered.  Coaches lost the game for the lions tonight.  All of them. Except Aaron Glenn.  Somehow.

Remember what they did in that playoff game.    Why would this shock you tonight? 

[The Ronz]

You kick the FG earlier in the game instead of going for it and none of the 2 point BS matters.

Dan Cambell sux as a coach and I have no idea what you guys see in Gibbs.

[number20]

Man I hope we see these guys in the playoffs

Looking at the replay, decker never ale within 10 feet of any ref.

i speak for everyone:

SHUT THE **** UP!

[TP_Fan]

Dan Campbell can’t coach like this in the playoffs. That was rough.

Assorted offensive penalties on that play. Pretty exciting though...

I dunno man... I just don't know that they would have the intention of throwing to Decker and not having Decker report. I think it's entirely possible the refs didn't hear him report or something, but jeez man... how would they not having Decker report if that was the intended play?

[MichiganCardinal]

All of their BS specialists I’m sure will come out of the woodwork to say that it was the right call. It wasn’t. The Lions won this game fair and square. Until good ole Jerry Jones NFL referees said they didn’t.
