We need to use Ferguson as a focal point in the playoffs. Like Kittle and Kelce. Detroit made a couple great plays on Ferguson or he would have had a great game. Sometimes the other team is why you don't play as well. Getting a win was huge.

Kwyn---you think Campbell forcing the 2 pt play lost it for them?....i mean tie it up and play OT verses forcing the

2 pt play but i think Campbell realized they can lose their 3 seed so he did not care???
Yes and no.

I think he made the right call the first time but should have kicked the extra point after the penalty.

Dallas just beat a team that’s probably going to win 12 games, is now 4-2 against likely playoff teams, and people just can’t be happy.
Yeah, it was a good win against a good team. We know what are shortcomings are by now and so do our opponents yet the team still gets the win.

We’re far from perfect but others in the NFC have their issues as well.

Also, there was nothing stopping the Lions from kicking the extra point from the 7.
Which is the obvious play. 7 yards on a short field against a good defense is just a bad call. I liked it at the 2. At the 7 it's just dumb.

That 12 wins will be the most in Lions history. Mike McCarthy and the Cowboys will win 12 for the 3rd year in a row.

If there is a Fred Warner LB type at #1 when you draft you 100% take him. Should be what they are looking for. Tyron is having a great year but he gets hurt at the drop of a dime. It's handicapping. If he is 100% for 4/5 games in a role he can come in, that's great. We need a player like that! Still need to rebuild the line or start to. Steele is a major problem. Tyron, old and injured.

Center is like the 3rd problem out of 5 right now and I think Dak likes Biadasz. He's not elite but finding his replacement is lower on the totum-pole for sure.
I'm not for playing "we like our guys" at C. Biadasz is decidedly average. Very good deal for the draft pick we spent, but he won't be at free agent prices. It's time to move on.

That parsons offsides negated an interception that would have ended it easier

Too many other more critical holes just to concentrate on Biaadasz unless they try to uograde with a FA..

and good chance win wild card...then we play SF in divisional round most likely...unless upsets occur...like Seattle beating Philly?...if the 6 or 7 seeds win

then we probably play philly in divisional....most likely its the Bucs in wild card then SF in divisional....we do not match up well against SF?

Everybody on ESPN keeps saying oh well why did decker go over to the ref?? To just say hi???? But they have yet to mention even one time….. well why did 58 go over there for? Did he go to say hi?? Cause he’s not even mentioned as eligible or not

Detroit tried to pull a fast one and trick Dallas. Instead they confused the ref.

Also NO ONE has mentioned that if Dallas knows 68 is eligible….. maybe they would’ve covered him? They almost covered him anyway
It also appears from the still shot that #14 on the right side is on the line and thus covering up #70 who HAD reported eligible. He went out into the pattern making it an ineligible man down field. If they rule #14 was off then I don't think there are enough Lions on the LOS.

If only Detroit had two more chances after their illegal play to correct the wrong that was done to them…

Oh welp. Better luck next time

mr Mahoney---i see you are still missing the dinner bell a bit too often....or you may have eating disorder going by your profile pic....nothing personal just observing..j/k :lmao: ...but its not affecting your football reasoning....i agree we need to limit presnap penalties that often doom us....we need to start playing

as good on road as at home...i mean learn real quick because most likely on the road will be where we play all our playoff games????:huh:

Ronnie---it was nice to be on winning side of these debacle games for once...but i also think if we can get our act together on the road....we might do better than

people think...if 6 or 7th seed pull an upset and we win.....we might see a home game...maybe these top tier teams are not "shoe ins" as they appear?
