Detroit Lions fans are mad at the officials this morning. They believe that their two losses were directly related to the officials costing them the game. Do you know how lame that is? Seriously, that is one of the lamest things you can do as a sports fan. Lions fans are like Wolf Stansston in D2 Mighty Ducks yelling to officials, ‘You lost it for us.’ And the officials should pull their best Gunner Stahl, ‘You lost it for yourself!’ Detroit did everything to keep Green Bay in this football game. Matt Patrica is a fake Bill Belichick asshole, but at least, he did not come out and go against the officials. Rather, he talked about the need for touchdowns and playing better.

Lions kicked five field goals in this game. Five. Not saying that all of these need to be touchdowns, but they could have easily put the Packers to bed early on in this game. The first two were the most painful looking back for the Lions. If Detroit gets one touchdown there, they lead 17-0 at the end of the first quarter. It is likely over at that point considering Aaron Rodgers did not have Davante Adams to mount a comeback. Further, there was a chance for the Lions to be up 17 or more in the second half too! It’s all about the officials, right? But right now, Lions fans want to bitch and moan about all the bad calls. Call the whambulance for these guys. I’m sick of it.

Many Detroit fans will say ‘Packers get all the calls.’ Shut the fuck up. Do you remember what happened in Seattle with the Fail Mary? Or how about the Clay Matthews’ roughing the passer call last year that changed Green Bay’s season? Remember when Green Bay lost a playoff game because Arizona grabbed Aaron Rodgers’ facemask in overtime? See, losses happen all the time with teams all over the National Football League. Detroit can say they’re the victim but at the same time, they’re one of 32 teams where this can happen.

I’m typically against betting Minnesota on the road, but I can see this being something lingers a little bit for Detroit. They need to clear it out of their system if they want to win next week in another important division opponent. When they lose though, it will probably be the officials’ fault.
