lol..... "Bunch of trickery"This whole thing to me is a nothingburger and blown way out of proportion and overanalyzed.
The Lions tried to use a bunch of trickery in the simple reporting of a damn player, f*** them. They ended up confusing the refs. They share the blame here. The wrong guy was announced over the PA system loud and clear and they still ran the play, that's on them.
They even got 2 more kicks at the can, bailed out on an offisde, still couldn't convert, that's on them. They could have and should have just tied the game up and went to OT too...
NFL referee crews have gotten away with so much more than this with no action. I'm all for holding bad refs and their crews accountable, I really don't understand punishing Brad Alen and his crew here.
The fact that we're now looking at Zapruder film analyzing the arm angle of Skipper as he jogs onto the field isn't on the Lions. One guy spoke to the ref to declare he's eligible.
The fact that y'all want to call back a play like the Philly Special because it's just too hard for the refs to follow and "I guess it could be illegal formation" is embarrassing.
