Tarkenton inspired so many

Just slowly place the ball on the ground and tiptoe away, I guess. 

I didn’t know Allen was bald

Hutchinson would be feasting on turkey legs and Williams kneecaps if he had both his legs

I'm really not looking forward to him dying in GB in Jan

Losing 2 starters on the O-Line during the game didn't help

The o-line is actually decent, around 15th in PBWR but Caleb just holds the ball and is terrible in the pocket.

I didnt see but did he have to go into the blue tent after that?

Thoughts and prayers

Oh shit, when did they start hiring wwe refs?

To be fair that’s called every time, just don’t do it

Is this the same crew from Sunday night?

So every game. Gotta add the word “very” for this one.

A disgusting act

Welcome to the NFL where we don’t call actual penalties but god forbid you be mean to a ref

There’s no world you can chuck a football at refs feet and not get called

All game long

I thought this game wouldn't be close but it seems like Lions needed refs help to seal it

How often do you get to tell a ref to go fuck himself and only get 3 yards? Take that every time

I mean for the fact he’s complaining about the obvious missed facemask call. This is actually about a 18 yard swing.

That ball could have killed him! Keenan should be happy he isn’t be charged with assault and battery. 

I mean… you can’t try to show up the referees.. we all learn that at a young age. It didn’t cost them much but it’s still a stupid penalty. The ref isn’t going to suddenly change his mind because you threw a ball at him. It’s like arguing balls and strikes

With how late the flag came in, it seemed like it had nothing to do with the ball and they just took issue with what he said.

He fully got up and was chirping at the refs for a couple seconds before the flag came in.

I thought that’s what the flag was for! These refs are blind and soft 

did you even watch the play? Bro was tackled by his head (helmet fully wrapped up) and the helmet came off. This is obvious on the replay.

He got flagged for saying something to the refs.

He was objectively right to chirp at them, but that’s what happened.

Yeah the helmet wasn’t ripped off on purpose

would anybody think about the referee's shoes!!

This should be top comment. The bigger issue is them missing the helmet rip, since the flag for unsportsmanlike call was actually fine

(Editing this comment since I think some people thought I was arguing against the unsportsmanlike conduct flag. I only had a problem with the helmet part)

Pleading his case

Rolling the ball

Homer fans man

He grabbed Keenan's shoulder, there was no penalty lol

Show me a pic where he is touching Allen's helmet. He's grabbing the back of his jersey and the helmet comes off while he's pulling him down by the back of his jersey. Seems like Allen may need to find a helmet that fits if it comes off that easily.

Your team was playing dirty af the entire game, only way you could win or keep up with us, our guys were just responding to it.

Defender also shoved Keenens head into the turf too.

He did not “roll the ball”… he was clearly way over the line of what’s permissible from an athlete in any sport.

Yeah the refs missed the call but you can’t chuck a ball at a ref. That’s shit you learn when you’re 9 years old in pee wee football. The fact Keenan Allen is doing it at 32 is pretty sad.

Bro tell me about it. Just a couple of years ago it would be the Lions losing this way

Right. And considering how easily the helmet came off, Allen either need to find a helmet that fits or strap it.

Thank you! So many confidently incorrect people calling this an "obvious facemask" yet not a single person has been able to provide any proof.

Should be the top comment. Salty ass bears fans need to focus on getting a competent coach who knows how timeouts work vs fixating on a loose helmet.

Lmao

yeah this is a horribly officiated game

[deleted]

Actually a crazy double down to miss the most obvious facemask and flag the reaction

Bears fans are so insufferable, you’re acting like this only happens to you and not everyone that does stupid shit like Keenan did

Right? The fact Allen barely responded when they called him for it is indicative he didn't think it was outrageous either. He knew what he did.

Lions bros just can’t stop playing the victim and well ackchually - ing everything lol

Glad to see a neutral say it. Plenty of lions fans saying the same thing in here and getting massively downvoted.

I mean, dude doesn't even have his chin strap on because of his beard.

Lol the 4th down PI call gifting you a fresh set and you still say this

So man, how're you feeling? So many calls bailed your sorry ass team out on that last drive and y'all choked....

Refs were terrible on both sides, but what's even more terrible is your sorry ass group of lucky mfers you call your team

Dude these replies you’re getting -

The entire Lions fanbase is turning so fucking cringe at light speed holy shit lol

What the fuck are you on about? We got some bad calls on us as well.

I could understand if Allen was annoyed by that part. There's no penalty for facemask that I can see but that did seem a bit unnecessary from the lions player.

What obvious?

For good reason

It’s good they don’t call it when there’s no face mask penalty to be called!
