You know better, Pantry. It’s not crazy at all. It’s a very familiar place for the Lions to find themselves. And as usual, they got screwed. tOfficial Detroit Lions Thread: Sheila ain't fucking around - Page 25 502811600

Like Deja vu. The Saints and Tom Dempsey beat the Lions 19-17 on a last play NFL record 63 yard field goal in 1970.

Since we’re getting into in on the delay of game thing, it’s another example where football is so so stupid.

Basketball- the backboard lights up when the clock hits 0. It is very obvious if the shot was before or after.

Soccer- the ref wears a watch that tells him if the ball goes over the goal line. If it’s over by 1 mm, the ref instantly knows. It is infallible.

Football- the back judge keeps his eye on the clock, then if it hits 0 he checks out what’s going on with the play. Then if the play hasn’t started he reaches for a flag, but if the play started before he gets to it well so be it I guess we won’t call it now.

It seems so so easy to fix. Like, so easy. Why do we have to act like it’s 1952 regarding something that is so easy to automate? You don’t even need replay, just have the ref who is watching the ball be snapped have a watch on that gives him a buzz if it hits 0.

The ball should just explode when the clock hits zero.

by **Travis of the Cosmos** 2021-09-26, 17:30

That would be a fun addition I think

Something about this new coach tells me he won’t leave with a better record than Jim Caldwell.

Wondering what time the NFL will announce the refs goofed on the play clock.

Did they ask why he took a 30 second TO before the 4th and 19? I really like him but the lions made some mistakes and by doing so they allowed the refs to fuck up.

Yeah they screwed the 4th down. Took a timeout to save Baltimore and then only rushed 3 and played man. I'm a Campbell fan already but they screwed that

First Lions game, huh?

Watched Stafford today. He looked great and happy to see him get that big win. Miss him in the Honolulu blue but also wishing him a healthy season full of winning and glory.

Not so fast Turtleneck. In Detroit, first you give the coach a vote of confidence. Then you extend their contracts in year 3 after almost making the playoffs. Then you fire them the following november and pay them for a few years after they are gone. Also, said fired coach never gets another NFL head coaching job.

One Pride.

It’s one unusual feeling when you realize your only hope is that some new billionaire to buy out the team and take over.

Maybe, if they get lucky. So, who is the odds on favorite to be the #1 draft choice? Are any potential franchise QBs going to be available?

Must be nice to be a Ford and be born into unfathomable wealth and your job is to run a play toy business (lions) that no matter how bad you fuck it up, it keeps going up in value because NFL
