Game 3: Falcons @ Lions Thread

[dtroitlionsfan951]

I think we got screwed there. I don't believe it was clear enough to overturn the ruling on the field.

But I am proud of the boys for hanging that close with the Falcons, and, in my opinion, doing enough to win this game.

If I blame anyone, it's Ebron.

We won man, we could have easily did a qb sneak.

I don't see how that angle was definitive.....fucking stupid.

 

[biggunsbob]

He was not touched until after the ball crossed. This is such bullshit.

 

[manchild98]

Even when we win, we lose.

 

[tigermud]

One of the biggest screw jobs I've ever seen

 

[manchild98]

No clue how they overturned that

 

[biggunsbob]

He catches ball and the ATL defenders hands come off. This is bullshit

 

[brewer229]

So because the refs blew a call we don't get a chance at a hurry up play. Fucking NFL rules. Always discover them by being on the wrong end.

All the bullshit aside....its sad that on the 1 yard line we have to line up 4 wide 3 times at the end of a game. 1st down you call 2 plays and punch it in with abdullah doing a dive. End of Game. But instead we try to be fucking cute like always.

 

[turok]

Should have tried to run it in once, or QB sneak.

 

[UMRules06]

That's why you can't rely on comebacks all the time. The other shoe has to drop at some point.

It sucks, but I thought he looked short? *shrugs*

If im being 100% fair his knee is down with the ball on the 1 inch line and ATLs defenders hands all over his backside.

 

[brewer229]

He didn't even complete the process of the catch until he crossed the goal line. So marked down before completing the process. Awesome.

 

[LKP]

Refs again. We got a tru win folks

 

[cmlfactor]

Once again...WHY is it a 10-second run off????

 

[UMRules06]

Refs again. We got a tru win folks

Yay? Who cares

 

[everyoneneedsasmil]

That may very well have been the most Lions-y game I've ever witnessed. It pulled together all the best and worst narratives the Lions are known for, and was ultimately decided by the refs.

 

[mhughes0021]

Even if thats the case you could call down by contact at that point.

 

[biggunsbob]

Fuck these fox annoucers blowing the refs cocks.. this is bullshit . It should not have been overturned .

I agree he was down.
What im saying is by the refs missing the call and calling it a TD that prevents the Lions from running a hurry up play if they would of just called him down live.
