Same old Packers D. If Rodgers plays QB better than anyone ever has, they'll still win some games. But yeesh

 

[Plinko]

Why should the Lions benefit from the calling being wrong in that case?

Why should they be punished for the ref screwing it up?

 

[ryutaro's mama]

haha

Ruthless

 

[hughesta]

lmao bengals

 

[hanspampel]

Lions were down 30-26, they scored a TD with 8 seconds left.
The call was reviewed and overturned; They were a few inches short

By rule, there's a 10 second runoff when a scoring play is overturned, and the game is over.

had it been ruled short on the field, they would have had time to either spike the ball, or just call a timeout.

they had no timeout
otherwise the timeout would've been used instead of the 10seconds runoff


afaik

Russ is high on all of his throws.

 

[JABEE]

Vereen running out of bounds and the clock operator helped on the play that brought the clock to 7 seconds.

 

[Walter White Walker]

Oh goodie, another punt.

 

[King Kovu]

Put Henry in

 

[neoemonk]

I am beside myself right now with how that Lions game ended. I remember the batted ball play against the Seahawks a few years ago, and I thought that was bad, but this is something else.

 

[B.O.O.M]

Wtf Wilson?

on a positive side, OL!

 

[MarauderShields]

Why should they be punished for the ref screwing it up?

But were they? If call him down on the field then the clock would have run out before they get another snap.

Brad Wing’s hair is the real MVP.

Don't forget his tattoo

 

[ZeoVGM]

Brady's arm was down.

That's arguable as it was very close. But it also doesn't change what I said.

Either way, the Pats were on 4th down and kicking the ball away. So yes, it was stupid to waste a time out there.

It was going to be 4th down and they had no timeout.

 

[BravesCountry]

The runoff makes sense, he was short and they wouldn't have had time to run another play.

 

[Officerrob]

That's an awful call against the Bengals

 

[Grexeno]

Also, I called that botched run-in by the Bears not-mattering. In fact, it was the 6 point swing that won them the game.

 

[Rflagg]

Punt them into submission. :/

 

[Tamanon]

Bullshit PI against Adam Jones there.

 

[Elfforkusu]

Why should they be punished for the ref screwing it up?

^^ right. Even if the call was right, which I don't think it was, the punishment of one team because the call is wrong -- and that punishment reversing the outcome of the game?

That's how you would rig a game.

 

[hughesta]

fucking awful PI call against the Bengals

 

[mreddie]

Ugly but glorious finish in Philly

 

[Sparkedglory]

Bullshit PI against Adam Jones there.

You're right, and as a packer fan I'll take it. Lmao

 

[Violence Jack]

Russ throwing everything high. Come on now.

 

[Ultratech]

BULLSHIT CALL

Agreed.

 

[panthapanda]

The runoff makes sense, he was short and they wouldn't have had time to run another play.

I think some people think it was a sure touchdown. I saw knee down, ball short a couple of inches, and there was a hand on his shoulder as he caught the ball and going down.

 

[boxter432]

And Packers again gifted a long penalty they don't deserve.

 

[msdstc]

Woof that call.

 

[linkboy]

But were they? If call him down on the field then the clock would have run out before they get another snap.

Exactly. The last play was 3rd down, which means it would have been 4th and goal. The Lions therefore can't spike the ball to stop the clock and they don't have a TO.

There was no way for the Lions to get a play off, so the game essentially ends. By the time Stafford even gets under center, the clock would have expired.

 

[Plinko]

But were they? If call him down on the field then the clock would have run out before they get another snap.

They could have run a play in 8 seconds. All players were right there at the line.

 

[squicken]

That's an awful call against the Bengals

Terrible. He fell and ref had no angle to make that call

 

[Turbowaffles]

What the fuck happened to the Ravens???

 

[FloydtheFathead]

Hey guys.. did we..

Oh... oh... oh...

I'm scared for Hue right now

 

[AndrewDean84xX]

Rivers is so bad.

 

[Jeff6851]

Also, yeah, they do have time to run another play

There is no chance they get a play off that fast. It takes too long to get the ball reset.

 

[Tankard]

This Chiefs team, man...

 

[Tamanon]

Wow.

 

[Dreams-Visions]

Drafting focused on footspeed over reliable hands, I guess

Unfortunately they play football games, not track meets

That was some of the hardest to watch football in a long time for me.

I believe I counted 10 catchable drops. That's just insane.

 

[DataStream]

Tale of the game:

Bell went down every single time he was contacted.

Bears RB's broke like a million tackles.

Despite Bell's skill, his injury history gives me pause and I really wonder how he holds up long term due to that. Also, his distinct style will get (already is) dissected and adapted to by defences and situations where he should just ram it forward end up being a wash yardage wise. We may be missing some O line starters, but our offence is feeling really off and I think they need to evaluate the playbook a bit giving what they are seeing performance wise.

Our D has been quite good in terms of passing but finding ourselves with terrible rushing D is quite a flip.

Going to be some serious tough love this week in practice.

 

[Sparkedglory]

Challenge that call!!!

 

[jbug617]

Watson is the truth. I think the refs missed the time out call.

How many sacks and fumbles?

 

[VenomousCoffee]

That's not a fumble.

These fucking refs in the Packers/Bengals game...
