If Seattle is overrated because Detroit beat them, does that mean Detroit isn't all that good?
 
and Titus had 2 TDs that game, and Broyles with one as well... :p

now THAT...is a fluke. LKP uses fluke turnover every game.....its not a fluke when they do it every game. titus and broyles scoring in the same game?...pshhhhh....I woulda sent the tape into the NFL and demanded one get taken away.
 
61 yard field goal isn't a fluke that is talent.
A fluke would be a field goal that bounces off the hands of a guy that is setup to return the kick and it bounces through the uprights.

How many poor throws did the defender simply drop? How many great catches were there? All the good and bad even out over the course of a season and you are what your stats say you are.

Lol, that would be funny. I wonder if the fg would still count.
 
It didn't even out. Especially in that game. Pi on Carey bull. Face mask on green, more bullshit 3 points. Strip sack of Flacco. Guy on ground luckily recovers. Two Calvin drops. Tucker fg.

Tucker misses that kick 90 percent of his tries.
 
No luck in the kick, he's just good. Team recovers their own fumble, how is that a fluke? I guess that never happens to us..Lol.

Lions have bad recovery rate. The guy was already on ground. Lions all around. That is what makes it a fluke.

Guranteed he only makes it ten percent of time

I bet Akers makes it zero percent of the time and most K can't kick it either. When we recover our own fumble is that a fluke..?

Depends who is around the ball. If there are 4 Lions on their feet and one Raven who got put on his ass, then it's a fluke if the ball randomly bounced to the Raven.

The problem is most of the time the Lions players have their heads up their asses so they can't see the ball on the ground!

What is that 90% based on? He's a kicker with a strong leg that is 10 for 11 on kicks 50+

Redskins game griffin dives forward and fumbles, redskins WR drops ball in endone.

Dallas game holding call as they are simply trying to run out the clock gives lions the time they need

1st bears game stafford fumbles on sneak and ball stayels right by and he is able to recover.

2nd bears game sure handed Jefferies has TD overturned.

Stafford was standing up not laying on ground. Usually QB is the closest when he fumbles. The Ravens play the QB fumbled and the linemen on his ass just had the ball gravitate to him. That is why it's a fluke and Staffords is not.

That was a tough catch in Redskin game on a deep ball and Mathis was right there. Those drops happen alot on diving plays. Not a fluke at all. Good covergae.

Griffen fumble was flukey. Doesn't mean the flukes even out though. Doesn't mean they score a TD on the drive either.

Cowboys game holding call is not a fluke. It was holding and there should have been more holding called against the Cowboys. Refs finally got something right is what that was.

That was not a TD by Jeffrey. Check your eyes.

Fluke is something rare and crazy. A 61 yard FG and the Ravens getting that ball with a guy on the ground was rare and crazy.

Good coverage? The WR had a step on him and the ball was perfectly placed for an easy TD. If that was a Lion WR you would be livid that he dropped the easy TD.

The guy had to dive. Super tough catch. Not a fluke at all. Plus it was reviewed and clearly not a catch. I was there in person and was yelling at Redskin fans incomplete.

He didn't dive. He caught the ball kind of turning sideways and then went to the ground in the endzone. When he hit the ground the ball came loose. If wasn't a super catch...it was routine and he dropped it when he hit the ground.

Went to the ground is a dive. It wasn't a full lay out dive but he had to go to the ground like you said. Process rule. Aka Calvin rule. Plus it was very normal. Was it a break for the Lions sure but it wasn't a fluke. Ground causes non catches all the time.

If that is a fluke, so is Calvin going out of bounds with bad momentum on the 2 point conversion failed against the ravens. It was a great throw by Stafford.

so if someone falls to the ground it is considered a dive?
