Does Erin Gaydgers like double anal? Asking for the refs.

Did Coleman touch him when this occurred ? He was a half step behind Lazard when he caught the ball ?

This DL needs to get much better at defending the run and hopefully a healthy Hand and Daniels will make it better. It seemed like every Packers run gained 5+ yards (didn't on every rush just seemed like it)

A' Shawn seems to be the best iDL so far.

Snacks needs to return to last season's dominance and years prior.

Walker's hit shouldn't have been penalized, imo.

 

[Gulf of Brazil]

Shoulda, Coulda, Woulda all throughout this game. Gotta keep the pedal to the metal in order to beat teams like this.

Hock drops the TD when his elbow hits the turf.
12 men on the field during the FG attempt.
2 false hands to the face penalties that weren't and that 1st one negates what ends up Lazard's TD.
The no DPI on Redmond against Marvin Jr.
Kerryon did get the ball over line of goal.
Difficult to win with 5 FG's and a TD against the Packers and on their home field.

Lions will need to sweep Minny and Chicago plus take the home game against Packers if they want to win this division.

For the most part I've liked the play calling by Bevell. Stafford didn't have much time in the pocket during the 2nd half and that needs to be cleaned up going forward.

The sack by Preston Smith against Wagner showed P. Smith clearly jumping the gun and should've been a defensive offside.

On the last FG of the half by GB, why didn't Patricia call a timeout with 39 seconds to go ? He had all 3 timeouts remaining and let GB sit on that time waiting to kick that FG and go into halftime. GB had the 2nd half kickoff coming to them.

Niyo: Detroit vs. Everybody? Lions get cold shoulder from refs in loss to Packers

Much like the umpire, Jeff Rice, who threw both flags on Flowers for illegal use of the hands against Packers All-Pro left tackle David Bakhtiari.


Referee Clete Blakeman explained after the game that Rice saw “prolonged” and “forceful” contact to the “head or neck area,” yet in both cases, replays clearly showed Flowers had his hand firmly on Bakhtiari’s shoulder pad.

“I didn’t think hands to the chest was a penalty,” said Flowers, who according to ESPN had never been called for a hands-to-the-face penalty in a five-year pro career that includes more than 2,300 snaps.

Monday night, with the game -- and first place in the NFC North -- on the line, it apparently was a penalty, however, never mind Bakhtiari’s hand in Flowers’ facemask on one of the plays.

Maybe we'd get more calls if Stafford sucked dicks like Rogers.

Officials flagged Lions for lining up with 12, didn’t flag Packers for 13

These are a sampling of the good plays (sacks/incompletions) by the Packers that were replayed on the telecast. There are others, but these were clear cut.

Like holding, it appears you could call "hands to the upper body" on every play...

 

[Rob]

This is the topper. This is a companion gif to the last still shot I posted. This play was a shot to the head, followed by a horse-collar.

I'm sure the flags came from the same official.


Who prolly gets a nice bonus.

I've got two apology texts from Packer fan friends in the last three minutes. Lol

What about the ref that said it was a fumble. The ref commentator is like, oh yeah it's for a sure a fumble. Then the Packers coach, who looks like he just finished puberty throws the flag, whispers sweet nothings into the refs ear. I text my buddy and am like, "I'll bet 1000 that they over rule this". Then boom goes the dynamite.

 

[Rollingthndr]

Lions will need to sweep Minny and Chicago plus take the home game against Packers if they want to win this division.

I am sure the refs at CHI and MIN will be on our side in those affairs as well.

 

[DJ]

I can't believe the Lions lost.

 

[LionsWhyMe]

The sack by Preston Smith against Wagner showed P. Smith clearly jumping the gun and should've been a defensive offside.

IIRC the play clock hit zero when he jumped...
