------Yes a quarter of a century later, zero nfc championship appearances because its a conspiracy. Hint: its Jerry
I was being nice earlier, when I said that I'd like this crookedness cleaned up by the time we are decent again....I realize that its not gonna happen until Jerry is dead....there, I said it. I realize that we SUCK, and the Goon does not have control of that....but he DID have control over the Dez catch and all the non holding calls in the loss two years later to Green Bay at home. You know, the same Green Bay team that season who went like 9 1/2 straight games without ONE Offensive Line holding call. If we broke up that pass on the last play of the game today against Baltimore, what do you think the chances are that we do not get called for something? The answer is ZERO chance.
The Dez catch was a game we should not have played in. The Lions were cheated by refs in the wild card round. Dez should have been called for unsportsmanlike conduct and it was flagrant interference on a cowboys defender. Resulting penalty would have sealed game for Lions.
One other note about Dez catch in green bay (it WAS a catch) is that there was almost 5 min on the clock and all packers needed was a fg IF Dez catch was a TD. Our defense could not stop Aaron Rogers and we would have still lost. People act like there was 5 sec on clock when dez scored.
