I’m getting more upset by this the more I think about it…

[rdlkgliders]

Havs said I have to know not to do that and Puka said I have to make that play. Maybe the NFL Mafia sent henchmen to reinforce the code

Just mentioned it in another thread. Very dirty team. F the Lions. Poverty franchise. The more I think about this loss, the more it burns me up. Lions didn't deserve it. They were hanging on for dear life all 2nd half and needed the refs to gift wrap it for them to do so successfully. Did Detroit get a single penalty in the 2nd half?

As Munny told Little Bill Daggett, "deserve has nothing to do with it."

You have the wrong play posted above.

That's NOT the holding call on 3rd and 4.

The above is the 3rd and 14 play.

Hutchinson went down on the 3rd and 4 holding play, when the pass was thrown to Rivers in the flat.

Yes, you are correct. Got it wrong. Working late into the night and simply blew it.

Sorry -- here is the right one.

And looking at it, there was no completed rip move and there was a grab outside the technical definition of the grap. So, being honest, on this play a hold was justified.

One of my favorite parts of that movie! haha

yea that game showed that the Lions are dirty as fuck. The non roughing the passer call was probably the most egregious....so fucking bad.

Takes a lot to go from a team I root for to a team vying to be my 4th least favorite but they accomplished that.

Fucking go AFC. The Lions can have their fucking first ever playoff victory in fate knows how long, but after this game - and this week in general, I’m feeling far too bitter to cheer for them.

There we go. That’s my response to your Palpatine GIF, @Angry Ram ; the guy’s one of the biggest dicks in media.

The thing with going head first into the knee of a huge TE like that is something has got to give. In Hockenson and Higbee’s cases it was the knee. Odds are eventually it is going to be his neck. They don’t do surgery to fix those they give you a wheelchair. If you live by the low hits to the knees you live with the consequences of them.

Justin Jefferson calls out NFL for sharing arguably insensitive Lions fan sign​

MSN

After a Lions touchdown in their divisional round victory over the Buccaneers on Sunday, the NBC broadcast cut to a shot of a Lions fan holding up a homemade sign. It got shared all over social media, including on the NFL's official account.



The sign references a famous portion of head coach Dan Campbell's introductory press conference three years ago.

"So this team’s going to be built on — we’re gonna kick you in the teeth, alright, and when you punch us back, we’re gonna smile at you. And when you knock us down, we’re gonna get up. And on the way up, we’re gonna bite a kneecap off, alright. And we’re gonna stand up, and then it’s gonna take two more shots to knock us down. And on the way up, we’re gonna take your other kneecap, and we’re gonna get up and then it’s gonna take three shots to get us down. And when we do, we’re gonna take another hunk out of you. Before long, we’re gonna be the last one standing. That’s gonna be the mentality.”

The issue that some fans — particularly those in Minnesota — have with the sign is how the kneecaps are listed with checkmarks next to the Vikings and Rams logos. Yes, those were the Lions' last two games before this one, but they didn't come without controversy. Safety Kerby Joseph caused season-ending ACL injuries to Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson and Rams tight end Tyler Higbee with direct hard hits to their knees. Whether by design or by coincidence, the sign almost reads as a celebration of those injuries.

Even though the hits were technically legal, opposing players and fans alike were not pleased. That includes Vikings superstar receiver Justin Jefferson, who called out the NFL on X/Twitter for posting the sign.

Why is it a penalty to barely hit a QB low like that and not one on a vicious hit on a te's knee?

TE don't take up 50% of the salary cap.

 

[Merlin]

Jefferson is such a sensitive bitch.

 

[Steve808]

I still rather have the Lions win the NFC than to see rat boy and cry baby dweebo have a chance at the title. Not to mention the bad calls that slanted in the whiner's favor in that playoff game. Green Bay beat them.

Whatever Campbell said it's just bad timing/coincidence for that sign. The fiery speech followed by the devastating knee hits then the sign is a bit too soon.

 

[Ramstien]

Kirby Joseph is a punk ass MFer and I will be watching the game in hopes of seeing him get his. Karma is a bitch!

Wasn't the 'biting knee-caps' comment by Campbell three years ago when he was hired by Detroit?

Or did he something more recently?

I do agree that the hits to the knees injuring Hockenson and Higbee made the sign, by one stupid fan, inappropriate; and the decision by the network to air it ... offensive, and ... like the fan who wrote it ... Stupid.
