Should have been a 15 yd penalty on the lions blocking the center which isnt alowed.

Would have or wouldn't have? Looks like it wouldn't have been good to me.

You can block the center. You just can't line up over the top of him.

Well we need a TD now. Blair is probably relegated to kickoff duty until he's fired tomorrow.

Always looking for the tick tack penalties - they didn't line up over the center and hardly touched him.

We have $260k in cap space. I'm not sure what the vet minimum is?

Center is considered a defenseless playen on field goals, cant hit him.

Dumb challenge but looked like they wanted to use a timeout anyway so kind of a good challenge.
