    The darn NFL Officials certainly can screw up.

    This time the Lions HC Jim Calswell was smart enough to challenge the spot on that 'came up short' 4th down play by the Giants.

    How come the whole world can see it as it was and the Officials get it otherwise?

    A key Series for the GIANTS. A lot of time left in this game.

    Here they come and at the Lions 28 with 4:47 remaining in the 4th Qtr.

    24-10 LIONS.

    This is a good take.

    NO SALE on that Series.

    Eli needs a WR that can catch the ball.

    So it looks like the GIANTS will end this game with a 'L' and go to 0-2; but every other Team in their Division is at 1-1.

    Yup. Final score 24-10 LIONS ! A solid Team Victory.

    T.J.Lang looked really good and the Lions rushed for over 100 Yards.

    The GIANTS 'O' = Fizzle !

    Did he play better than Evans? Did he play better than Evans at 3x the cost?
    But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

    He played better than the young INJURED guys that TT HAD to sign first. They could have extended Lang a while ago and saved money. But TT likes his young guys, in more ways than one.

    Which guards were injured who played in place of Lang?

    Dolphins suspend Lawrence Timmons indefinitely
    Posted by Mike Florio on September 19, 2017, 4:17 PM EDT

    AP
    The Miami Dolphins have made a decision regarding linebacker Lawrence Timmons. And it’s an aggressive one.

    The Dolphins have announced that Timmons has been suspended indefinitely. As a practical matter, the Dolphins definitely can suspend Timmons for up to four weeks without pay.

    He’ll lose $58,823 per week (based on a $1 million annual salary), and he’ll potentially be required to refund 4/17th of the 2017 allocation of $5.5 million signing bonus ($647,000). The most also wipes out the remaining guarantees in his contract (he had $11 million fully guaranteed at signing), allowing the team to cut him with no further financial obligation.

    While the Dolphins have remained mum about Timmons’ decision to go AWOL while the team was in L.A., they clearly don’t like either what he did or how he handled it, apparently disappearing without telling the team that he’d be leaving. Now, he’ll be leaving for up to four weeks — and maybe for good.
