It was one the most exciting games of the year. But here we are talking about referees. Ben Raven does his best to break it down.
What’s going on everyone Ben Raven with M lives Detroit Lions be here at the Press boox AT&T Stadium I’ll just get right into it uh crazy controversial finish as it always seems as the case when the Lions and Cowboys play here uh it’s a lot of he said they said
She said whomever said back and forth right now Lions players are being directly contradicted by the pool report but I think we all have eyeballs I think we’ve all seen the videos I think we’ve all seen Taylor Decker reporting as eligible to the receiver I think we’ve
All seen Jared gof directing Decker to report as eligible and uh the pool report is saying that Skipper reported as eligible and he said to us in the locker room I didn’t say a thing to the ref I’m not trying to get fined I didn’t
Say a thing to the ref let’s move on Dan Campbell took that route too and Taylor Decker you know went in a little bit more on it but he was just like I I did that play exactly as instructed exactly as practice all week exactly as I’m
Supposed to I went up to the ref and I said report Decker catches that ball you think the lions are going to win 2120 on a aggressive call by Dan Campbell who was aggressive all day today like it love it or leave it uh the fake punt was
One of their biggest swings of the game obviously they don’t convert on that fourth and goal but man I look at me I don’t know what to say this this was so confusing it was like 40 minutes of trying to get a straight answer in the pool report from the NFL referee Brad
Allen like I said a direct contradicts what Taylor Decker what Dan scaper what Dan Campbell what Jared Goff are saying you know you know G straight up said you know it’s the fix wasn’t in or anything like that they just messed it up and I mean I feel pretty safe in saying they
Messed it up because I think there was a lot of assuming going on because as we all know following this team Dan Skipper regularly reports as that third tight end regularly reports as that eligible receiver and it sounds like the Lions tricked the Cowboys the Lions also
Tricked the officials on that one and um it is is a shame cuz I don’t want to sit here and say the Lions lost because of the refs but uh it’s impossible not to sit here and say that they didn’t mess that one up that was a brutal Gaff this this
Officiating crew was under investigation by the NFL earlier this month into Miss calls and stuff like that PRN Adam shter and uh yeah Lions have one game left in the regular season they host the Minnesota Vikings next week and then it’s on to the playoffs so keep telling yourself that
They’re still division champs they’re still going to the playoffs they might get to see this team here in a couple of weeks and um I think you know the headlines and the stories and the podcast will write and fill out themselves that week but Lions lose very controversial finish here mlife.com
Lions we got you covered we got the player reaction we got the coach reaction we got the pool report we’re going to record a podcast here soon but um yeah I don’t know what to tell yall I can’t sit here and be the cheer up Squad
This week uh I it feels like this was a pretty bad Gaff by the end NL

This is proof the nfl determines the outcomes of these games, this should be a fun fair playoffs
it is unfortunate for the lions however not gonna score alot of points kicking field goals when the opposition is scoring touchdowns! 🤷♂️🤔👍
Dan Campbell is the reason they win and the reason they lose!
Anybody home? At all? Anybody? Dan Campbell says #70 reported. Not sure whats real at this point. Taylor Decker, #68 says he himself reported. Jared Goff is in agreement with this. WTflyingF!!!
Rigged garbage.
I believe Taylor decker did what he was practicing all week to do. And that FACT THAT THE COACH CONFIRMS OT AFTER THE GAME PROVES THE OFFICIATING CREW BLEW THE CALL. I haven’t seen officiating like that since the 1972 Olympics. Young people, ask an over 60’year old about that.🤦😡
Who is eligible to catch a pass in football?
Of the players on the line of scrimmage, only the two players on the ends of the line of scrimmage are eligible receivers. The remaining players are in the backfield (four in American football, five in Canadian football), including the quarterback. These backfield players are also eligible receivers.
CFL -COMMUNIST FOOTBALL LEAGUE
The games are fixed.
Nothing happens to the refs for the mistakes/lies. However if the players or coaches mention anything negative about the refs they get heavily fined. That’s communism folks. I’ll tell you all another thing, full time Refs is not the answer. It will make it worse.
I am a Texans fan but that was some of the most bias and horrible officiating wasn't just stealing the Lions win but all through the game the Lion receivers were getting mugged and nothing was called at all. When the Texans played the Jaguars we got called for pass interference when the DB didn't even touch the receivers. NFL referees are bais and do control who wins.
I’m gonna get seasick watching this video- stop moving in circles man
How could this not be a fix? Refs literally waited until 40 secs after the play was over to throw the flag. It painfully obvious it was rigged.
This is so funny. The Lions were trying to confuse to the Cowboys and they ended up confusing the refs.
The fix wasn't in?
Tim Donaghy did a better job fixing games. Brad Allen you are making it look too obvious.
SO bad. The ref told the defense the wrong player, and Brad Allen should be fired for how devastating that mistake was.
NO accountability.
Go Lions 🔥🔥🔥
say it loud and say it proud, Lions LOST BECAUSE OF THE REFS
as a reporter that no matter if he reported or not it was still an illegal formation because the end receiver was off the line, talk about that!
WWE FOOTBALL SO SAD
The best bet of all is that most of you will keep watching this crap. The WWE is less rigged than the NFL.
You are all wrong. The refs always announce to the crowd if an odd player (jersey number 50-79) is eligible. If the refs do not announce this, then the player did not properly identify himself to the refs.
AND, if you line up for the play, and see that the refs have not announced this to the crowd, you need to stop the play and re-identify yourself.
Lions haven't won anything since the Eisenhower administration we're not surprised. All the mistakes the Lions made they lost lol
BOTTOM LINE: Detroit still had an Illegal Formation. They should have been flagged for that as well. THEY LOST Legitimately.
Don’t count your chickens just yet that POS Roger can overturn the game and he just might he’s already suspended the referees from the playoffs
Dan skipper was in the game for 3 offensive snaps….
