detroit1 Posted December 31, 2023 Posted December 31, 2023 Unfortunate ending, but a good game to watch. Most thought Lions had no chance against the Dallas team in their house. Campbell should have kicked a field goal earlier in the game to make the score 7-6. I was okay with the first 2 pt. attempt- (you know, the one where the official said the wrong man claimed eligible), but i would've kicked the extra pt. and take my chances in overtime. Oh well, they can heal up some starters next week to prepare for our first home playoff game since moving to Ford field. Go Lions! Go away Goodell, with your "improved" officiating... 1 Quote

This was a very poor decision IMO. I'm ok trying it once but after the penalty, it was a poor choice. Kick the PAT and go to OT. Holding the Cowboys to 20 points in that building where they've destroyed most opponents this season was an accomplishment in itself. Monster game by Lamb. I am not sure what will happen next week in week 18. Campbell doesn't seem like the kind of coach that will rest his players completely, but if there is really nothing to play for, there's no point in playing all your studs for an entire game. Quote
Global Moderator 12poundbass Posted December 31, 2023 Global Moderator Posted December 31, 2023 Dan Campbell has rolled the dice in the past and has worked for him. I like the call to go for two. Plus the NFL OT rules suuuuuuuuck! 1 Quote
Super User FishTank Posted January 2, 2024 Super User Posted January 2, 2024 The Lions got robbed. The Colts vs the Browns game will be the one that stays with me. That was horrible. Usually I would give the refs one bad call at the end of a game but three in a row, something's up. 1 Quote
