MNF Game Thread: Lions (0-3) @ Seahawks (1-2)

I kid y'all not, I was thinking to myself what lucky play was coming for Seattle. It's come to be the norm for them. Get every bounce, 50/50 ball, every call, every coaches dumbest day, etc. Even the fuggin head of officiating just said that swat out of the endzone should have been a penalty and Lions ball. You know damn well if that was the Panthers, it would have been called 100%. Even so, Calvin didn't even need that TD, just tuck it away and you most likely fall forward for a TD anyway. If not, you are at the 1 yard line anyway. Whatever, I'm over it. I hope Bengals and Panthers steamroll them back to back weeks.

Wow, guy just said that since Seattle batted the ball out of the endzone that it was an illegal play and Detroit should have had the ball half the distance to the goal. Ref's fuged the Lions tonight and Seattle pulls another golden horseshoe out of their ass.

Yeah I was wondering about that myself when I saw it live. You can't intentionally bat balls out like that. Refs huddle up to discuss after the play, still nothing. Under 2 minutes so booth can review it if they want, nothing. Hawks get gifted another W from the refs.

    • Everyone knew the catch was secured and didn't move. That was clear to the entire audience. The only ones who thought it wasn't a catch were in the NYC home office. They knew they'd just offer an apology the next day.
    • NEVER FORGET!!!!   Canales was on no one's radar. Tepper couldn't get anyone to come here. He was all in on Ben Johnson. Nobody wants to work with Tepper, however Canales tenure may prove important for the next guy. This guy still has no idea what he's doing. 
    • The 4th down play was poor execution by Chuba. He didn't want to get physical like Rico and cut North South to lean on his blocks from Tremble and Ekwonu for half a yard. Also, the 3rd down play before that Bryce audibled out to a QB run and almost got the 1st down was on Chuba for not knowing the play call leading to poor execution. You can see Chuba's confusion when Bryce had to realign him. Then Chuba thought he was getting the handoff and was slow to develop his double team on the DE with Tremble. Then Chuba hesitated on pushing the block and just ran to the sideline making Bryce have to loop around him. This pulled the DE away from Tremble forcing Chuba to chip on the DE late and leaving the safety as a free defender. Chuba was suppose to double down on the DE to let Tremble peel off to the safety. This allows Bryce to set up his run to the inside or outside after the safety commits. You can also see Tremble walk over to talk to Chuba after the play and Chuba shrugs which tells me he didn't know what to do. The audible would have worked on 3rd and the dive would have worked on 4th. The plays were good calls and drawn up well. The question is why was Chuba unprepared for those plays in two critical back to back plays? I like Chuba as a 1st down RB and passing downs, but I have always seen him lacking the power and vision to be a short yardage power back. Chuba didn't come prepared for the Saints game or he was thrown into a position at the 3 spot that he was never prepared for.
