Skipper turned into a good player. We had him here in Dallas. Gave up on him too fast. Just saying.

ESPN some how believes the Lions getting screwed was worse that the Cowboys getting screwed... The ref doesn't tell the Cowboys that 68 is eligible so the cowboys don't guard him, if they win on that play the Cowboys are the ones that would have gotten screwed by the refs.
Who is to say that if the ref reports it correctly, that 68 still catches the pass since he would for sure have been covered since the Cowboys would have know he was illegible?

Honestly....I can't blame them. How many more times do we need to see an official screw something up before the league admits there is a problem? Every week it's something....As a fan...I just want to see an unbiased...impartial crew that can do the job....competently
Oh, I think a few of the game calls/no calls tonight will sure provide additional grist for the conspiracy theory/rigged discussions next week.

Horrible? No but I do agree about the run plays. Rather see a bit more bootleg roll out passes to the tightends on first down. I feel Ferguson would have had success.
You are right, all in all, it wasn’t horrible. The last offensive drive was a head scratcher. I think it was far from his best game - but this was no slouch of a team they were playing.

Darren Sproles had 50 yards rushing and 10 yards receiving in his first season. 60 yards - total.

I'm not saying Deuce will be Sproles 2.0, but anyone expecting an immediate impact from him was dreaming.
Lots had dreams about Deuce this year.
Apparently even the team, as we kept him on the 53.
Should have targeted him to the PS this season and let him learn the playbook and routes.
He always looked good receiving the ball to me. He's made to be our next gimmick player, and he's not really ready for it yet.

MM called a horrible game. The first down runs. And the last offensive drive…
Pollard saved us in running game....the scheme should have been if we run only to set up the pass...if you get a good run....next play do play action...which they

did do couple of times

Sure seems like the league is doing everything they can to cover their mistake.

Alls this moron does is spin back and forth and that is how he beat Steele because Steele is too stupid to ask Smith what the clown is doing, Yes Smith go beat once but most of the time Hutch looked like a spin dry cycle on a washing machine. Smith just stood there and watched him during the spin cycle.

If that game meant anything, like playoffs, seeding, division, I think he kicks, but he’s on the road in a game that means nothing other than pride. He’d seen Dak roll up and down the field with Lamb. He told his team before the drive started that they were going to score and go for two to end the game right there. That’s who they are.
it was nice to be on winning end of these debacle games

Well, Campbell needs to learn that games are won by field goals and overtime too. Not complaining tonight.
Yes. His decisions led to some Detroit points left on the field tonight. A sure killer when you're in a 1 point loss.
