The ending of the Detroit Lions game against the Dallas Cowboys will be talked about for days and days.
To quickly summarize, the Lions believed they had scored the go-ahead two-point conversion with 24 seconds left, but officials ruled that left tackle Taylor Decker—who caught the pass—was an ineligible receiver.
The controversy surrounds a miscommunication between the officials and Lions players. Replays show Decker approaching the head official Brad Allen to report as an eligible receiver. But with Dan Skipper jogging onto the field—the player who typically reports as eligible—the official believed that it was Skipper who reported, not Decker.
