The FUMBLE by Kerryon that they ran back for a TD, the lineman had possession first with three Lions on him touching him, but no whistle was called, so he flipped it to that DB who just ran it. I can't believe they called that a TD!! It was a fumble no doubts, but the lineman had it first, but was DOWN with Lions all over him. They didn't say he had possession, but somehow he flipped it to the KC db, just a rigged play. NFL is shit.
Ref's should have reviewed the play and saw the lineman had it and was down before he flipped it. I don't think they even reviewed it. Despite the BS Lions still almost pulled it off.

Thoughts on the game:
I was expecting a blow out so this game was pretty encouraging (especially without their best player). Frustrating though, as they had every opportunity to put it away.
Why in the world did Patricia challenge that pointless spot check that still resulted in a 3rd and 1 and not challenge that non-PI call? If anything is clear an obvious, that was it. If they challenge that and win, the Kerryon fumble likely doesn't happen and they come out of there with a MINIMUM of 3 points. That right there was the difference in the game.
Despite the loss and 2 bonehead turnovers, this was Stafford's best game of the season. He actually didn't completely fold in the last 5 minutes and came up with some big plays.
Hockenson, really? If you're gonna hurdle at least do it when the guy is in front of you.
Rather than call that timeout on the last Chiefs' possession, I thought they should have just let them score to get more time.
Patricia seems like a good X & O guy (at least for the defense), but his game management is terrible. Maybe he's the next Andy Reid.
Does this defense have a conditioning problem? I know the line has injuries but it seems like conditioning has been a huge issue in all 4 games in the 4th quarter. The line in particular has been gassed toward the end of all 4 games. Not sure if it's just due to the injuries and not being able to do a normal rotation.

Uh, based on the 5 minute break after that play, pretty sure they reviewed it. Bottom line is that play was on Golladay for not making the tackle in the end zone. How hard is it to keep playing if you don't hear a whistle? I don't care if they were placing the ball. No whistle and the guy with the ball is running? Fukkin make the tackle.

Officials blew that on a lot of fronts. It can be hard to hear whistles. Especially in those situations when it’s loud. Add into that refs running into to spot the ball like the play is dead. Refs botched that whole sequence. They didn’t blow it dead, but did everything else as if they did blow it dead.
Yea, no refs ran after the KC guy, they jut huddled up looking to spot the ball. If the play was still going they would have been running with the guy or not act like the play was dead. They got punked by the refs again.
It's beyond disgusting at this point. Same with the defensive holding on the last drive. Was great coverage, barely touched KC Wr. They helped KC when it matter most.

No doubt, the refs blew the entire sequence, but I still say if you don't hear a whistle, and there is a guy on the other team running with the ball, you tackle him. That said, if Patricia challenges the non-PI a few plays prior, all of this is most likely a moot point.

And then you take chance of getting 15 for unnecessary roughness, because you just may not have heard the whistle in a loud stadium. It was just completely botched like a lot of the game was by refs.
The PI, I have a tough time complaining much about because refs have been so unlikely to overturn those. No matter how bad it was. I mean they could have overturned Golloday in EZ on the review of that for the catch. They could have on last Hail Mary when they tackled Jones, both of those were pretty blatant and command center let them go.
They had plenty of time to eat some of the clock before scoring, even though scoring isnt guaranteed and you take it when you can, I just knew it was over for them when they scored with over 2mins left.
Also, am I the only one that saw Williams get bent back and knee down on the game winng TD? He did not break the goalline until 2nd lunge, but his knee was down before the lunge.
Of course you were...this game is exactly what I expected...close with the lions having a shot for the win...
Congratulations.
Not sure why you take it so personal that I was expecting them to get blown out. I'm ecstatic that I was wrong. I assume you're joking about the hat. Not to mention trucker hats are just...weird.
Great to see the Lions being so competitive and they have a fight in them quite frankly I have not seen in a long time!
It was tough to see some dink and dunk offense drive the field at the end of the game and score a TD. Like to see Patricia change it up a little bit here on that last drive.
Also the mental blunders and turnovers cost the game. Oh and the refs...the mother fucking refs!!!!
The running game....great to see that get going! The passing game looks great with Bevell. You have to admit, Stafford has never looked so good without CJ! Defense played tough down some key players in the secondary versus a great offense.
Things I noticed from the game 1) the depth is the best I’ve ever seen on this team. slay out, Diggs gets hurt, yet the D played pretty dam good. You couldn’t say that before Quinn took over as GM. 2j we finally have an OC who knows what the hell hes doing. 3) didn’t tske long to get away from RB by committee and feed the rock to KJ. 4) best TE group we’ve ever had. 5) they need to tell players to quit trying to leap over defenders. The risk isn’t worth it. 6) The Lions could and and should have best the a chiefs. This team is legit. And it’s only year 2 with Patricia. I’m stoked.
I've been pretty disappointed with Jesse James, especially given the money they gave him. Was hoping he would show his presence more after Hockenson went down. Saw him miss at least 2 blocks as well.

Anyone see that C'mon Man segment before the game tonight and they showed Jarrad Davis literally just casually standing around/walking in the middle of the field during a play? It didn't even look real.

Yeah, he hasn’t done much. When they drafted Hockenson, he felt more like insurance than anything. I actually think Logan Thomas has looked like the guy that could step up be something.

He was clearly a spy, but I’ve never seen anything like that.
Also that should have been hands to the face on that OL, just ran up and socked him in the facemask.

Did anyone see KC guard, Laurent DuVernay-Tardif, holding Snacks Harrison on the last play when KC scored the winning TD. He has his arm around his throat and pulls Snacks completely backwards, it is brutal. Don't tell me that the Refs did not see it, they just did not call it. Fucking bullshit. Found the picture on Eric Schlitt twitter. Sorry I could not pull it in here for everyone to see.

It’s not as easy to spot live, picture makes it look awful. But yeah, he got held for sure.
