No More Complaining About Resources Used on the O-line

No I would not. But I don't think they necessarily have to top their win total to be a better team. It's a much tougher schedule and who knows what it takes to make the playoffs. Carolina was a division winner with a losing record, and they even won a playoff game.

Would they be a better team if they won a playoff game but were 10-6?

Yes, if they won a playoff game. That'd be a miracle.

They got royally screwed last year..that should have been a win.

They got screwed but still had time to win and couldn't. Doesn't count as a playoff win.

no shit

 

[RobBase]

So why say it shoulda been a win.

Yeah, it was bullshit that the refs made Sam Martin choke, put Levy on Dez and made Staff fumble twice.

Those assholes.

Technically the refs did make Martin choke, had they not picked up the flag, Martin wouldn't have been punting there.

Do I need to explain the difference between should have and is?

So why'd ya reply in the first place? I said they'd be improved if they won a playoff game. You replied they got screwed out a playoff win, implying they'd have won otherwise. Whats your point?

That was my point.

 

[LPinSLC]

I am so tired of the lack of resources used on the OLine.

 

[LPinSLC]

My bread and butter is bread and butter. That shit is just good.

I don't believe he choked, I think it was more of a statement that the defense could shut the Cowboys down. One play doesn't equal 60 minutes, it's what followed that was outrageous. Who knew it would be Lions vs the Dallas Officials on their last scoring drive. Allowing the Dallas O-Line to Hold (8 non calls) while calling a couple of Defensive Holding calls to move Dallas along.

but still had time to win and couldn't.

Hey, your catching on that NFL is a business. I say it all the time... whenever the Officials start their game changing call the Lions roll over and die.
At any rate if you were railroaded blatantly like that and if that didn't take the wind out of your sail, I don't know what would. That's one hard lump to swallow after getting kicked in the nuts.

They didnt show up for the second half. Time to stop blaming the refs and admit the lions sucked, period in the second half. If they had taken care of business the refs wouldnt have mattered. At the end of the day though, I knew they werent going to win the game before the game even started. Dallas was the better team.
