Did The Lions Get Screwed
Ok so I just want to go back on record saying that I was 100% wrong.
You can CLEARLY see that not only did we have 7 guys on the Line of Scrimmage, but none of the eligible receivers were covered up ANYWHERE!
What the hell did the Refs see???
Top to bottom
Calvin Johnson - On (1)
Nate Bureleson - Off
Jeff Backus - On (2)
Rob Sims - On (3)
Dom Raiola - On (4)
Steven Peterman - On (5)
Gosder Cherilus - On (6)
Brandon Pettigrew - On (7)
Bryant Johnson - Off
The only thing I can MAYBE see them call is that Cherilus wasn't forward on the line enough, because Pettigrew was further up than he was - but that's really reaching. Looks like a screw job to me, and they've come in bunches for this team this year.
Sucks,
