2023 Season | Week 17 | Gameday Chatter Thread | Lions @ Cowboys | 12/30/2023 (Jimmy Johnson Induction Day)

We can’t overlook Joe Buck’s squeaky pre pubescent call on that last TD and the 2pt play that was not.

Add him to the list of people who I’d use for spare parts in a hospital.

I was wondering if I was the only one who caught that.

Maybe that's what happened. They had two people report.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

Um, is that WR's foot not basically directly in line with his?

Does Bob think being three inches back counts?

Our coach would never be that faggy though.

I like Dan Campbell. But he's still whining about that penalty in his presser. He insists his Olineman reported. I wish somebody would ask him about the other penalties that could have been called during the same play.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

Maybe that's what happened. They had two people report.

I bet that is it. That's why the ref ran toward the defense once he heard the first one report.

Maybe the lesson is, don't run such a tricky play in such a critical situation on the road before a loud crowd.

 

[dpf1123]

Maybe that's what happened. They had two people report.

Yeah. Campbell just said they had two people report.

This Oline seems to be getting worse by the week. They've struggled run blocking all year, but I put part of that on Pollard. He seems tentative, taking some unneeded stutter steps before he hits the hole. But their pass blocking has been solid. (aside from Steele 90% of the time)

But these last few weeks? Oof. The pass blocking has been shit all across the line. People can say Dak has been playing bad all they want. But he has been under some serious duress these last few weeks.

We need a talent infusion there, and we absolutely need to fire Solari's ass the minute the season is over.

Dak has been fantastic given the pressure he's facing. Agreed totally about Solari - he sucked in Seattle.

 

[Genghis Khan]

Maybe that's what happened. They had two people report.

They thought they were being slick I guess. Have two guys go to the ref but only one reported to keep us guessing or something? And told the refs pregame just in case? That's a lot of moving parts to count on.

 

[kidd]

Just want to take this opportunity to tell Richard Sherman to lick my sack!

He was ragging Cee Dee for the first 4-6 games of the season.

 

[Cowboysrock55]

That touchback rule is total horseshit.

I love it when it works out for us but yeah, I think it is too punative.

 

[Genghis Khan]

That touchback rule is total horseshit.

I hate it so much.

 

[dpf1123]

I like Dan Campbell. But he's still whining about that penalty in his presser. He insists his Olineman reported. I wish somebody would ask him about the other penalties that could have been called during the same play.

I thought he was saying the officials told him 70 reported and then 68 tried to. You can't have two people report on the same play.

OMG that is funnah.

Does Bob think being three inches back counts?

 

[NoDak]

A reporter just asked Campbell if he was frustrated.

You could see the veins bulge out on his neck and his face got red. After a moment he said "What the hell do you think, Dave? I don't like losing." Then left the podium. Looked like he wanted to jump over the podium and kick the shit out of that reporter before he answered.

 

[Chocolate Lab]

ESPN's next 20 for 20 will be BradAllenGate on how Detroit got screwed out of this game.

 

[boozeman]

Lions gonna lion . How they fucked this up I can’t imagine .

How we allowed them to be in a position to actually fuck that up was so Cowboys tho

 

[dpf1123]

I thought he was saying the officials told him 70 reported and then 68 tried to. You can't have two people report on the same play.

Now the rules analyst on post game is saying two people can report and blaming the official. Going to be a shit show tomorrow. Sucks to be them.

I think it does count doesn't it? That doesn't look covered to me.
