Regardless of whether or not he was mistaken, the Lions were aware of this (by Goff’s own admission) and threw to an ineligible receiver anyway. It is their job to confirm the ref knows who is declaring as eligible.

Damone Clark can be seen pre-snap pointing at #70. Essentially reminding everyone on defense that #70 was reported as eligible.

There's no way #68 is left wide open if he's reported as eligible.

The media is trying to paint this as guaranteed points for Detroit if it was called right when in reality if it was called right #68 would've been covered.

Thank you for posting this! So no matter what was said to the ref the Lions heard the announcement that 70 was eligible. No excuses now. Let’s see ESPN spin that.

70 reported but didn’t have to report because he lined up as a tackle. Decker tries to report, and is told by the refs that 70 has already reported and, therefore he could not report, because to players cannot report as eligible on the same play. 70 reported first, and the crazy thing is, he didn’t have to. But because he did, it eliminated Decker from being able to report.

Ref still got it wrong....he can deny it all he wants....but the tape doesn't lie....probably has dyslexia.
