I know a lot of Lions fans feel they were jobbed by the refs. Save it. I’ve heard it all before.
I’ll run down some key moments of the game which all contributed to the loss to the Bears as well as games prior.
In the third quarter they recovered a Jay Cutler fumble and only got a field goal to show for it. You have to get six points when you get that kind of opportunity and when Chicago scored their winning touchdown, the Lions missed on a couple plays. When Ndamukong Suh was called for the bogus personal foul penalty, linebacker DeAndre Levy missed the tackle for loss on Cutler which led to Suh committing the penalty. Then how do you miss a 300 pound tight end and not cover him and score? He should be the easiest guy to keep track of. They missed him again when they allowed him to get loose, catch a pass for a first down and close out the game.
They simply just don’t know how to win.
I’m still waiting for them to just clamp down in the fourth quarter and stop someone when they have to. I’m hoping that day will come sooner than later.
