The Official Patriots vs Lions Game Thread

Not even penalties can stop our secondary

Snachise having a pretty good game

These penalties are keeping DET in the game.

Organized chaos has made a comeback after being non existent for this defense for the past 4 seasons.

I'll say it again. I think Collins is way over hyped.

D is playing extremely well. Defensive backs are in position on every play and even completions are contested. Very competitive secondary allows front seven to do more up front.

Every little break is going to Detroit

Even that bounce

I'll take the stop, let's get a long drive before the half!!!

The defense is looking dominant this game.

These officials are hilarious. They just love keeping other teams in the game.

the league has become the "automatic first down" league. Officials just bailing out offenses with penalties like hands to the face, illegal contact and ****. All of these are penalties you see on just about every play and the officials get to pick and chose when to call em. Would love to see somebody breakdown the percentage of these ticky tacky calls from Quarter to Quarter and on 1st and 2nd down vs 3rd.

Great job by the defense (excluding the flags)

tis the season to be giving. you get a flag, and you get a flag, ...

THIS will be the game where the league stood up and recognised the Pats as a SB contender. They way they are dominating the Lions lines on both sides is impeccable.

team record is 114 --> @E_Scal Last Collins penalty was the 100th #Patriots flagged infraction of the 2014 season.

Deep bomb to LaFell time.

"Grampa, what was the NFL like when players had to gain yards with plays instead of by playing the refs?"

need to get 1st down and change the field position a bit

Great hold by the D yet again. This game would be 14-0 without these flags

Maybe 21-0 as an offensive penalty stopped the first drive

I'm kinda surprised they did not try the long field goal.
