McDonald picks up a first
Never was ruled down, need to see a replay though

by Sean Yuille on Nov 18, 2007 2:05 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

It's close
McDonald rolled over the defener as he was being tackled and his knee may have never touched.  Doesn't look like his knee never touched the ground, so the play should stand from the challenge.

by Sean Yuille on Nov 18, 2007 2:05 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Wow
Officials strike again as the call is reversed.  I don't understand how there was enough evidence.  Now 4th and 2.

Jones gets it again
About a yard short of the 1st down.

by Sean Yuille on Nov 18, 2007 3:03 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

They try to go for it
Flag on the play though.  False start.  

by Sean Yuille on Nov 18, 2007 3:07 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Not even close
Looks like it was tipped.  Another wasted opportunity.

Bad throw by Kitna is picked off
Way too many defenders around Roy to make that pass.

by Sean Yuille on Nov 18, 2007 3:21 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Wasn't a horrible pass
But still way too much coverage to throw into.

Kitna barely missed a wide open Roy Williams.  No one was near him

by Sean Yuille on Nov 18, 2007 3:35 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

deja vu all over again
the on-line updates that I'm 'watching' the game on, they make it feel quite like the Michigan game yesterday....

Giants doing just enough, a la the buckeyes, Lions doing nothing whatsoever, the way Michigan never got anything going

by ahtrap on Nov 18, 2007 3:42 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Agreed
The offense has to step it up.

by Sean Yuille on Nov 18, 2007 3:44 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

Great punt by NY
Lions take over at the 18

CALVIN JOHNSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a catch.  Touchdown Lions!!

C.J. jumped over two defenders
And took the ball away from one of them to make the TD catch.  Holy s***

by Sean Yuille on Nov 18, 2007 3:49 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

nice
more of that, please....well, maybe not the chuck it up and hope your receiver steals it away from the double team....more like more touchdowns, please, and in the next 4 minutes, if you could

by ahtrap on Nov 18, 2007 3:51 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

The passing game was great on that drive
ALl passes thrown to different receivers I think

McDonald fumbles out of bounds
He tries to do too much, just catch the ball and go out next time.

by Sean Yuille on Nov 18, 2007 3:56 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Flag on the play
Pass went for no gain but it'll be roughing the passer!!

by Sean Yuille on Nov 18, 2007 3:57 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

here's the question
Is this Kitna circa 2006, or 2007? Kitna 2006 gets us down to the 25-30 yard line and fumbles. If this is truly a new Lions era, we're winning this game.

by ahtrap on Nov 18, 2007 3:59 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Kitna is picked off
He just threw it up for grabs and McDonald was the receiver.  Dumb, dumb, dumb.  2-minute warning.  

No way McDonald was going to catch a jump ball like that.

Eli just takes a loss
Timeout Lions, they have 1 left with 1:49 to go.  (Ball on their own 18)

by Sean Yuille on Nov 18, 2007 4:01 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Timeout Lions again
Droughns picked up a short gain.  Have to stop them 1 more time.

by Sean Yuille on Nov 18, 2007 4:02 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

No flag on the play
Eli throws an incomplete pass.  Clock stops by itself now and Giants have to punt.  Thank God the refs picked up that flag.

by Sean Yuille on Nov 18, 2007 4:04 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Lions will have to go 70 or so yards.
Detroit does have 1 timeout left.  I thought they used 1 earlier in the half, guess not.

by Sean Yuille on Nov 18, 2007 4:04 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

i'm sorry, but wtf?
Did the giants really just try a pass like stat tracker says they did?

by ahtrap on Nov 18, 2007 4:05 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

McDonald f**** it up again.
Dropped a pass and it gets picked off.  Damnit

by Sean Yuille on Nov 18, 2007 4:07 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Giants win 16-10
Can't believe the Lions gave it away like that.

by Sean Yuille on Nov 18, 2007 4:08 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

believe it, it's the Lions
Well, at least you make it sound like it wasn't Kitna's fault, exactly....instead it's back to finding creative new ways to lose each week...
