That literally changed the entire game. from Lions having a first down and driving (and most likely would have scored). What a dogshit call by the NFL. They should play this game under protest.

And I would love to see the penalty they just called on the Rams. Feels like a makeup more than anything. But it makes up for nothing.

"He's not a very good athlete by NFL standards."

Have you watched Puka this year? Nobody can cover him, nobody can out muscle him, and nobody can catch him in the open field, if his TDs of 70 and 80 yards this season are any indication.
I think he was talking about in relation to the combine... which is why he went on to talk about the combine.

They showed a couple replays.. guy was sort of tackled trying to get to the returner.

I wish they would explain those false start/neutral zone calls. Like what was the call there? Did they determine the o line did not move as a natural consequence of the defender in the neutral zone? Did they decide he wasn’t in the neutral zone? Did they decide the o line moved first? All of those would be wrong but at least the first is an intent judgment call.

They should have to say the basis for the call.

Then they'd be guessing AND making shit up. You can only ask them to multitask so much.

Seems like the basis is, "We make things up as we go along."

We need an Ed Hochuli to explain things.

Jerry Jones, why was this such a big surprise?

Your team doesn't win in the playoffs. This was a playoff game. Ergo, you didn't win.

Horrible call
Officials love to fuck Detroit. Holy shit.
NFL hates Cleveland, Washington, and the Lions.

It happens over and over to those 3 teams.
There’s no reason television officials shouldn’t be allowed to correct that.
Lions continue to get boned by the zebras
Refs totally fucked the Lions there. Wow.
Why on Earth isn’t there an ability for that to be overturned. The state of NFL officiating is so fucking awful.

I'm still shocked at how bad that call was. They totally just guessed.
They’d be better off pulling every ref off the field and just using a team of guys watching the game on TV.
That’s why fans believe the league plays favorites. That was an atrocious call. Like, it shows a fundamental misunderstanding of the rules.
‪They still use cards and chains from the 1800’s to measure down and distance . They wont get with modern technology until the 29000 at this point. Unless they are dragged kicking and screaming to do it sooner.
It’s absolutely insane how baseball was the last sport to implement any type of replay and they are already more willing to use technology for literally Every aspect of baseball than the NFL
