lions just force fumble and return it for a touchdown which is a huge game changer but because one DUMBASS ref decides to call the play dead when he has no fucking proof the guy being down the touchdown is now taken away

Horrible job.....seems like he blew the whistle when Detroit defender was at 10 yard line also. These NFL refs can determine games....and often do

not many people here care about fantasy but the primetime event on fan duel is 50k to first place and only 7% have detroit with only the two primetime games to choose from. i am one of the 7% and instead abdullah gets the touchdown. makes me so sick

the refs are for sure taught to let plays like that finish and the late whistle kills the play and any chances i had of hitting the lottery tonight. very frustrating how they get away with being so bad at their jobs

What % was Abdullah and CJ Anderson in that?

RB was tough since Starks/Lacy situation is up in the air

IMO these primetime contests are the only way you can win real money because someone like joique bell who is 2% owned you can take for cheap and if he goes off you are way ahead of everyone else being theirs only 2 games to choose from. worth the 5$ risk to take some fliers. ALA detroit defense!!!!

Cmon RC..

NBA has a legit gripe, that is a brutal call by the refs.

Cruise was basically just bitching about playcalling. I think it is a little different.

So what you're saying is that the refs didn't really ruin the game, they only ruined your fantasy football game.

Maybe what we should do is anytime someone wins money because of something like this, it gets put into a pool to be be paid out to anyone who whines about losing money in these situations

I live in a place where I'm not allowed to play DFS but I agree with you 100%.

If I played you gotta take your shots with people like bell that's less then 10% Owned.

You will finish OOTM more often doing that but it's the only way to hit the really big money.

If you got Calvin Johnson and 80% of the competition had him you really don't have much when he goes off

the refs took a touchdown away from the lions for no reason other than wanting to blow the play dead.. take your head out of your ass

Just bustn balls. The ref thought he was down, should the NFL allow TD's that happen after a whistle so someone's fantasy team wins? Or should they try to make the correct call? They ended up changing the call and got it right. It's not fair to allow a TD after the fact when everyone gave up on the play. It's hard to get every call right in real time.

@Chop

Yes and No....

You don't want your whole lineup to be contrarian. Obviously you still want the +EV plays as well. It is a balance.

Gotta figure out which of the 25-50% owned guys you like and don't like.

no one gave up on the play and he was full speed into the end zone. they shouldn't be blowing the whistle in that situation is my beef. its already over with for me
