When I saw this that's what I thought of, this is somehow the one team I can both believe it happening to, but also not believe it happening to because as the list grows longer it becomes more implausible to think it can keep happening.
It also doesn't surprise me that much in a way, because the NFL is so unprofessionally managed. Sometimes I get the impression that the NFL just has a dartboard that they use to decide how they will handle various things, because often there's little to no consistency and no rhyme or reason. This type of management structure is what allows for controversies like this to even happen, or half of the other ones that happen to the Lions, or deflategate, where these things likely could be prevented but they seemingly choose not to take such proactive measures because they prefer the controversy. Deflategate exemplifies the NFL management to me, they take a perspective that the air pressure in the ball is a competitive advantage, but yet they let the teams manage the balls. If you're going to do that, you might as well let the home team hire the refs for the game. Certainly no way that could go wrong.

Awful, scummy, completely botched call. Decker is on video obviously reporting to and being acknowledged by the ref. And while this loss will probably prevent the Lions from getting the #1 seed, I can also see it fueling the fire. This Lions team is legit.
