week 13 ,scroll downBut like the wrong call being right, maybe the "bad" coaching was exactly as intended. Maybe the Lions were intentionally setting the table for this made-for-TV drama. Because, believe it or not, Rodgers and TE Richard Rodgers (who caught the pass) ACTUALLY PRACTICED THE HIGH ARCHING HAIL MARY PASS BEFORE THE GAME, supposedly "for fun." If that doesn't flat-out tell you this was a production, I don't know what else can. That and the fact that the betting line was Packers -3 or -2.5, and the TD let them cover the spread. A nice little bonus for Vegas (and their larger, shadier bookie friends nationwide) considering this fact:

n the lateral play which should've been the final play had the facemask penalty not been assessed (and would Matthew Stafford gotten that call if the roles were reversed?), what were the two Lions defenders thinking? Rodgers completes the initial pass, it's lateraled, then it's thrown back to Rodgers who (a) can't throw another forward pass, (b) has no blockers around him, and (c) has no one behind him to lateral the ball. He'd dead in the water. The Lions defense could've just let him run towards a sidelines and wait for the other nine defenders to close in on him. But no, in the age of head trauma, Taylor doesn't go for Rodgers' waist, he swings for his head. Why? It was as if he was begging for a flag. If not the facemask, then an illegal blow to the head. Either way, the game's extended.
