How does that happen. How much of an idiot do you have to be?
 
Yeah this game ends Nix’ involvement in the OROY race.
 
A Detroit loss would give fans a heck of down stretch for the top seed with both Minnesota and Philly right there in the mix. Detroit has the tie-breaker over both - Minnesota head-to-head and Philly by conference record. If Minnesota win out they take the North and would match Philly at 4-1 in common games and 10-2 in conference (assuming Philly win out), with SOV settling top seed however that is calculated. Detroit would fall to the 5th seed at 14-3. Yikes.
 
That is a boneheaded decision to go onside kick there.
 
I don't think the players necessary feel the way supporters do but that onside kick relieved the pressure I felt from that Lions touchdown drive very nicely.
 
It's the Lions identity guys. It's what makes them great.
