So just a bunch of troglodytes grunting? That is not quite as satisfying.

The good ones are on Twitter like Dr Catfish

Damn that was awesome.

Damn sweet avatar.

Everyone just assuming we beat the Redskins.

I still remember that team being the one that consistently beat our god tier 90s teams so I'm just not taking it for granted.

NFL finally getting one right. "An attempt at deception by the Lions that backfired." Exactly right.

NFL has no plan to change procedure for reporting as eligible

With the Eagles losing to the Cardinals on Sunday, Saturday night's outcome in the Detroit-Dallas game becomes even more significant.

Here's an idea: Don't try to get the officials to help you do underhanded shit. They aren't a part of your team idiot.

The defense played well all game. You no longer have to worry about the run and you picked the ball off last drive with that aggressiveness. So why not go full on 10 yards off the ball prevent. Makes zero sense to me. Quinn lost his balls somewhere.

After losing the Super Bowl in a similar fashion, you’d think that he would learn.

second and 10+ is killer.

 

[kidd]

lol the arrogance from the Lions of all teams is amusing. Too proud to kick the extra point during any of those three tries eh? fuck off with that shit. Dan Campbell crying like a pussy.

He also passed on FGs opting instead to go for it on 4th down and turning it over on downs. He left at least 6-9 points on the field with that play calling.

One of my all time favorite plays

Bob Hayes 95 yarder doesn't count?

 

[kidd]

And btw, you can call tripping when a player just attempts it as well, so it should have been 15 yards against Detroit.

Thanks for clearing that up because I wasn’t sure. The attempt was clearly there. I just didn’t know if he had to successfully trip someone for it to be called.

Listening to Skip, he was saying he saw nothing to draw a flag either way. Should have known whern he said that, that the opposite is true.

 

[Genghis Khan]

Listening to Skip

Why?

 

[kidd]

Did this lead to a TD? I’m thinking it didn’t but it still should have been called and they still should have been backed up.

 

[kidd]

Why?

It was an Irvin segment. I enjoy Irvin’s commentary but he was a lot less homerish this morning. He was very critical of the offense. With that pathetic running game performance, I can see why.

Is Mazi really 40 lbs less right now vs what his weight was at Michigan?

Broaddus said he asked people with the Cowboys and they said he was 293.

 

[boozeman]

That is the rumor. Hey let’s take a guy who is supposed to occupy others and make him lighter, thinking he will get better if he is more nimble. It makes zero sense.

Stole that and posted as a meme on FB
