NFL coaches just don’t get clock management strategy.

Why wouldn’t McVay use his time out before the 2 minute warning?

Nothing gained by saving it.

Call timeout before. 2nd down play runs to the warning.

Now, you going to have to call the TO on 2nd down and the clock will stop at 1:55ish instead of 2.

It didn’t matter.

But it could have.

Didn't matter. What mattered were the 3 stalled drives in the red zone and multiple swallowed whistles (and one that could've been).

Where it would have matter was if Detroit ran on 2nd and 3rd down meaning Mcvay would have cost his team plenty of seconds

Coming from the guy who is ALWAYS bitching about the refs this is pretty damn funny.

I'm not 1 who ever complains about the refs. They're human and missed calls are part of the game...but if that wasn't the worst missed call I've ever seen...it's among them.

I agree and I rarely bitch about the refs.

Was a bad call. I was just having a good laugh as I remembered the call the refs missed in the rams/saints nfc title game

Higbee tore his acl. 2nd time in a month that same Lions player significantly injured someone at that same hit but league to worried about head hits. Those low hits are more dangerous imo
