That's why I liked watching Tate so much, consistently catching a ball, backing up, and missing the first down.

Amazing to me that they can't use time stamps on two different angles to answer some of the things they were just discussing.

That said, Tate walks like someone kicked him in the taint and it bothers me.

This drive here is everything... that last drive before the half. No Dallas score = loss , Dallas Scores a TD before the half, 75% they win.

75% they win if they go into half down 14-7?

Give me those odds all day long.


Football is a game of momentum -- if you look at the stats, teams that score right before halftime and that score either ties or puts them behind only 1 score, go on to win games a large % of the time. I was reading this one time, it's not 75% but for the home team it is about 65% I believe.

But then if the Lions get a FG here, that puts them back on track with an 80% chance of winning this game.


Please link to any sort of tangible proof. I could sit and make up stats too.

Even before that FG, Detroit was still 78% to win.

Forcing it to Calvin Johnson ... That's his undoing.

Elite Stafford pass should have been picked.

He'd be crazy if he didn't. Tate has more targets in this game though.

An advantage that Seattle would have if Detroit were to win would be that Detroit would have to play on Saturday, one less day of preparation there and then one day of travel would eliminate most of another.

Byron Maxwell vs Golden Tate? Sherman vs Calvin Johnson?
Marshall Lynch vs Ndameka Suh?

Our offense would be sick with both Tate and Harvin. Sucks that we had to lose both.

Wow, hell of a recovery by the holder to get the spot down after that snap and for Prater to kick it thru, usually that's an automatic miss.
