The Red Zone stayed focussed on the Cowboys and the (formerly) winless Jets, and the Falcons/Cardinals game (both teams with losing records) while mostly showing clips of the match up between Division leaders, one being the NFC Champs, and the other being the only undefeated team in the NFC.
Ho hum. No big deal.


Watching Dallas lose to the (formerly) winless NYJets yesterday was ALMOST better than sex.

TBH - I miss Tom Landry and Bud Grant. They were two class acts!!!

And like I stated before, I'll be cheering for the Lions, but I had to pick the Packers tonight.

So, should we keep track of questionable calls against the Lions and obvious calls not made against the Packers?? LOL!!!

9:50 in the 4th quarter, Lions called for hands to the face and it wasn't. Went from a sack on Rodgers which would have made it 4th and 20+ to a 1st and 10. GB got a TD 2-3 plays after the call making it a 2 point game after the PAT.

Missed Defensive pass interference call on Green Bay which would have resulted in a 1st down instead of a punt in the 4th.

The refs just gave this game to the Packers. Bad call of hands to the face. I'd laugh my butt off if the field goal attempt goes wide!!!!!

This bar is really pissed off. Whatcthey do not realize is they would have still kicked the field goal even without the penalty.

Lions still covered the spread by .5 points though. Of course no one here could care about that.

@Jesse_O I see what you mean about the Lambeau refs. Yes, there are plays the Lions could have made to win this game(a dropped pass in the end zone, a dumb penalty on a field goal attempt), but the truth is that, in spite of those missed opportunities they played well enough to win. The reason they lost is because of bullshit officiating. Plain and simple. Even the normally stoic Barry Sanders went on Twitter and called out the refs. The officiating in this game was hot garbage. I can’t wait to hear how the league comes out and explains how we didn’t actually see what we saw.

Almost 1700 penalty calls so far this season. The highest since 2001.

What gets me is the amount of assumed penalties that are being called. Even pro wrestling referees know you can’t call it if you don’t see it! Jimmy Graham falls down, the official doesn’t see what happened but assumes the Detroit player must have taken him down and throws the flag. A Packers receiver is lying crumpled on the ground, the official doesn’t see what happened but assumes it must be unnecessary roughness on Detroit and throws a flag. The Packers’ tackle’s head snaps back in a critical situation (twice!), the official doesn’t see what happened but assumes the Detroit player must have pushed his face mask and throws a flag (twice!). This is sub-WWE officiating! At least in wrestling the referee is in on it! Okay, I am done talking about this. Well, almost. One more talking point that came up on the radio post game show last night that is worth mentioning: people were questioning why Matt Patricia didn’t challenge the blatant PI non-call in the fourth quarter that would have extended the Lions’ final drive and possibly put the game out of reach. They presented what I think is a very telling statistic: out of 21 DPI non-calls that have been challenged this year, only 1 has actually been changed to a PI. That’s over 95% of the official’s decisions on the field upheld. To challenge a PI non-call is basically to flush a time out! What is the point of making this reviewable if the ruling on the field is never going to be overturned? The system is broken! Okay, now I’m done. On to Minnesota.
