I know, that's why I said sometihng wrong with the rules in THIS situation when that team gets a 2nd chance........bet 9 times out of 10, you give an NFL kicker a 2nd chance and they will make it after correcting their mistake.

But it isn't a second chance. The play never happened. If the refs were quicker with their whistles then they stop everything before the ball is snapped and the kicker hits the ball.

Detroit finally has a coach that doesn't blow games.

I expect them to be in the mix at playoff time. I'm not 100% convinced Green Bay will win that division. The Lions have EXACTLY the kind of defense that can give Aaron Rodgers fits.

I don't know about that. There was no reason his team should have had the delay of game at the end there. That is on the coach to have his kicking unit ready to get in there and do their job. They got lucky.

We used to mock soccer here in the US. Then many of us had kids and found an newfound appreciation for the game.

we still mock soccer here; or to be more precise we mock the gomers that keep claiming every ten years that its going to break out here in the US and it never happens.

good question.. London is ahead of central standard time by 5 hours, so I'm assuming we (viewers in the USA with CST) will see the game at the scheduled time (12:00 pm) while in actuality they are playing it at 5 pm in London

I wonder why they didn't do it that way with the Lions vs. Falcons game.
