Motor City Sonics

We sure didn't get cheated on good games this weekend.............

How long did it take for that flag to come out. Was it immediate or did they need to think about it. This whole thing just smells rotten, like it wasn't an honest mistake at all. Use it, Lions. Don't grouse about it. Shove it back in their faces, boys.

A lot of it depends on which team drafts them and what situation they go to. If the Lions draft Tom Brady, would anyone outside of Michigan fans know who he is?

YOU CAN STUFF YOUR SORRIES IN A SACK, MISTER !

**** their apologies. I'm ****ing sick of the league apologizing to the Lions. I hope the Lions can use it and shove it right up the league's ass.

No, they don't want to pay Fields. So they'll take a big step backwards. It's the Bears.

So the Bears seem to be like the Lions last year. Really coming together in the 2nd half. So they're gonna let Fields go now for an inexperienced rookie? We love you Bears, You keep being the Bears.

Someone asked why did all 3 go over to the ref (Sewell, Skipper and Decker) and Rex Ryan had to point out that you don't want to make it too obvious to the defense and Rex also said that players and coaches tune out PA announcements.

`but because of it, the Lions might have to go back to Dallas in Round 2 - because Dallas holds the tiebreaker now and that sucks. Guess we'll have to hope for Seattle or the Rams or whomever comes in at #7 to beat Dallas (and if we win our home game, we'd get another one if that happened). Why not dream of a Super Bowl? I mean, I know this team has not peaked and that might happen 2 years from now, but Dallas had been destroying teams at home and the Lions held with them. A missed play by Derrick Barnes and a bad call by the refs is what it took - the defense held yesterday - and if they can play like that, they could take this all the way (not expecting it, but why not us? other teams not as good as this one have gone on runs).

There is probably an ESPN email to Rex Ryan telling him to cool it on not supporting the Cowboys

ESPN, who fellated the Cowboys all night last night, has a story about how Adain Hutchinson should have been called for a tripping play. Way to deflect, ESPN. We know what you're doing.

Mike McCarthy needs to be thanking this crew, not for winning him the game, but for getting all the attention off of him for throwing the ball and stopping the clock. That's not going to help his job security.

**** you, NFL. A little late now.

But the Lions know they can beat these guys (if it's a fair fight). That goes a long way too. I think maybe the Lions walk away from this game feeling better than the Cowboys do today, because there has got to be some doubt creeping in for the Cowboys. Not for the Lions.

The next play being the 2 point conversion (since they hadn't run it yet). It's like slamming Brady Hoke for not noticing his QB stumbling after a hard hit. Brady wasn't looking at the huddle, Brady was focusing on the next thing.

Plus you show the team that you believe in them and that you have brass balls and believe me, that is going to resonate with those players. I guarantee you there is not a single player in that locker room grousing about what Campbell did. He showed a lot of love and respect to his players by asking them to go get it and the loss stings but that, in the long run, only fuels this team's fire.

Um, no, they weren't. They are very focused on what the next play is, they're probably talking to players/coaches the whole time and it's not always easy to hear what is being said on the PA anyway (plus the crowd noise). Players/coaches drown that **** out

Here comes the apology from the NFL. Well........

I want to buy a DAN CAMPBELL VS. EVERYBODY shirt.

Who the hell declared them "America's Team" anyway? I am telling you right now that 80% of the country watching that game last night was rooting for the Lions. And then it happened AGAIN. The Ref got sudden deafness and it cost the Lions a victory. Now we have video evidence that Decker DID check in as eligible. Lets check to see if anyone from the officials was seen hanging out on Jerry Jones's Hooke........I mean, "Party" Bus again. And I know what's coming. The officials and the league will offer another apology to the Lions and it will have all the sincerity of Bluto apologizing for smashing the guitar in Animal House. I love and I mean LOVE that DC went for 2 there and he did it three times. It doesn't bother me that they didn't get it, it bothers me that they DID get it and the zebras found another way to screw the Lions in Dallas. DC and his boys need to use this as motivation as they go on a **** YOU tour in these playoffs. DC showed total confidence in his team last night 3 times and that will help them long term and that screw job by the refs (in Dallas again) could be a great motivator.

They weren't going to let the Cowboys lose on Jimmy Johnson night.

That's kind of what I was thinking. Took your shot, you get another one - just play for OT. But, Dan's unzipped and letting them hang out. That was fun, wasn't it?

Yeah, he sucks. We had a great one like Matt Patricia, why would we ever trust a bum that took us from 3-13 to 11-5 and the first division title in 30 years. Fire him on the plane ride home. Let Harbaugh coach the rest of the way.

Of course not. He wouldn't go for 2 in the playoffs. They know, like we all do, they are pretty much baked into that #3 slot, so why not go for it all. Like Gary Moeller in the MSU game.

Remember what they did in that playoff game. Why would this shock you tonight?
