“He Choked, He Screwed Up”: Cowboys Superfan Skip Bayless Claims ‘Lions Got Robbed’ Due to Bad Officiating

Known for favoring the Dallas Cowboys, Skip Bayless predicted they wouldn’t win this season. It might be okay if someone else said that, but Skip Bayless, a die-hard Cowboys fan, comes as no less than a shocker. The Cowboys won over the Lions with a razor-thin 20-19 score. But that day triggered a chain of chaotic events that caused havoc for the Lions.

The Lions got flagged for not reporting the eligibility status of Taylor Decker before the game. Despite the Lions coach insisting that he wrote the status before the end, the confusion persisted, resulting in hefty fines due to illegal touching. According to Bayless, this situation arose because of the confusion among the officials. But what makes the analyst think the Dallas Cowboys would lose to the Lions?

Skip believes the Lions got robbed!

During a recent episode of The Skip Bayless Show, Bayless discussed fans’ questions about the recent game between the Lions and Cowboys. As the discussion progressed, a fan asked if Bayless thought the Cowboys deserved to win. Bayless had not expected the Cowboys to win, but he believed they deserved it. He had predicted that the Cowboys would lose by a point.

Bayless explained his reasoning, citing examples such as Jared Goff’s 72-yard attempt and Dak Prescott’s touchdown as ominous signs for the Cowboys. He added that the “Lions got robbed on Saturday night.” He began explaining Brad Allen’s irresponsible act as he ran into confusion about Taylor Decker’s eligibility status. He said, “He choked; he screwed up.”

He further added that Dan Skipper had falsely claimed his eligibility. This was an intense situation on the gridiron that the Lions had never envisioned. But what was the case? The Lions attempted a two-point conversion when Jared Goff tackled it to Decker in the end zone. But the referee was interested in the middle and blamed them for illegal touching, ultimately leading to the penalty call.

Even Rich Eisen believes the referee was confused.

The analyst Rich Eisen shared his take on the messy situation of the holiday season clash between the Lions and Cowboys. In a recent episode of “The Rich Eisen Show,” Eisen said the main reason behind the Lions’ loss was the officials’ poor actions. He believes that Broad Allen “screwed” up the entire situation. The analyst thinks the Lions tried to confuse the Cowboys but ended up making fools out of themselves. He believes players might get confused, but Brad Allen was not supposed to be a puzzle, as he had worn the white hat for a reason.

The journalist further compared the situation with Tom Brady, who used to attempt a false pass, but it used to be a part of the gameplay to channel it in the right direction. To clear out all doubts, the NFL even shared a video to enlighten the clubs with the rules players must follow before the match. The players must report their eligibility before the commencement of the game to ensure the smooth running of the playing process.
