    This isn't a huge travesty. It's not like the ball was on the turf and a lion was going to fall on it for a TD and a Seahawk snuck from behind and poked it out of play.

    He was by himself, and could have just grabbed it.

    But he didn't grab it. Should have been Detroit ball inside the 1 yard line. Total screw up by the back judge. And likely changed the outcome of the game.

    Not to mention, 1) no guarantee Detroit scores from there with that OL. 2) There was 1:30 left and Seattle had all three timeouts and Wilson is incredible in the two minute drill.

    This isn't a game they had won with a right call and lost with a bad call. It's not the Fail Mary.

    Still sucks if you're a Lions fan. But lots of things suck if you're a Lions fan.

    Seattle did not have all 3 timeouts. At most, they had 1.

    They had 3. You're thinking of the 1st half
    Turns out they had two, Seattle used one TO with 1:51 left. Still, 1:30 and two timeouts is plenty of time for a drive.

    We are both wrong. Seattle had 2 timeouts. They took their first timeout with 1:51 remaining.

    But had the right call been made, 1st and goal Detroit inside the 1, Seattle would have burned their 2nd timeout.

    2 timeouts with 2 minutes. Plenty of time to score.

    Blown call. Too many "what ifs" though. It didn't happen with 1 second left.
