Report: NFL blames Lions for 2-point blunder, reporting process will not change According to ProFootballTalk, the NFL believes the Detroit Lions’ deception was the cause of the 2-point blunder and has no intention of changing its reporting process.
He says there is no.
Qualification notification procedure.
If you were expecting a full apology from the NFL for the post-game debacle between the Detroit Lions and the Dallas Cowboys, you need to sit back and watch for a moment.
Because the NFL is going in the exact opposite direction.
According to Pro Football Talk, the NFL has no plans to change the process for declaring players eligible.
Why?
Basically, they’re accusing the Lions of confusing officials.
Mike Florio goes on to say: “According to sources familiar with the situation, the NFL has no plans to change the process by which players declare their eligibility.
That’s true.
The NFL is in full throttle, blaming the Lions for an obvious official error.
Their argument was essentially to send three offensive linemen towards the head official in a noisy and chaotic environment to hide their intentions from the Cowboys.
Brad Allen set him up to fail.
After the game, Allen insisted that Dan Skipper (picked No.
70) be reported eligible, not Taylor Decker (No.
68).
“In this game, No.
70, who I had called several times during the game, informed me that he was eligible,” Allen said in his postgame pool report.
“Then he lined up in the tackle position, so he didn’t really have to report at all.
In the end, No.
68, who was offside and touched the pass, did not report it.

All parts must be checked.
Decker reported that ARSB was off, Sewell was on, and JR was off.

The referee pointed at him as he ran in, which was a signal that he was coming in.

explained the situation on Twitter.
The approach from the Lions is commonplace and essential to the success of the play.
This is one of the laziest takes of him I’ve ever seen.
Anyone who really knows football and is familiar with plays like this knows that if you just send the OL to the referee for a 2 point conversion, the defense is stagnant before the snap and what happens is I know it’s like telling yourself that you can see everything.
