    Fire Jim Schwartz right now

    A play like that is inexcusable from a head coach

    Just cost his team a TD and probably 200 cents on the moneyline

    A blatant mental error and lack of knowledge of the rulebook is grounds for immediate termination

    Players get ripped for making mistakes in the FIELD OF PLAY all the fkn time. But when a coach directly COSTS his team a fkn TD while he`s nice and cozy on the sideline with his fkn headset and 20 fkn advisors in his ear, nobody says shit.

    Coach is supposed to be smart, not a fkn idiot that doesnt study the rulebook

    You think Belichick makes a dumb play like that... hah, not a fkn chance

    Coaches get paid millions of dollars for their ability to LEAD a team, not for their athletic ability

    Players are bound to make mistakes.

    What Schwarz did was unacceptable. period.

    I give Schwarz a mulligan on this one. The rule is insane!!! Who cares if a coach throws a flag in that situation??? Make him pick it up and review the play.

    Lions could have used Wayne Fontes in that situation. He was so incompetent he wouldn't even have been able to find his flag.

    The rule is absolutely retarded you "penalize" the coach for throwing a flag which is a reflex action to a call he knows is absolutely wrong and resulted in a TD by allowing the bad call/TD to stand AND a 15 yard penalty against the Lions as well

    Makes sense



    This rule will last for one season before getting knocked off...of course for those who had the Lions today that doesnt mean shit

    The Rule will be changed.

    15 yard penalty is enough. The play still needs reviewed, plain and simple.

    I had the Lions and wouldnt fire him over that. That would be retarded. That rule is plain retarded. That was a reflex motion in the heat of the moment. If people got fired for making one mistake on the job they are paid to do no one here would have a job. Its just a stupid rule that needs to def be revised

    The rules surrounding coaches challenges are so fukin confusing that you cant blame Schwartz, the rules are just godawful. Any turnover/scoring play is automatically reviewed but as a coach you are programmed to "let them know" you saw something ****** up that you want reviewed by throwing the challenge flag but of course throwing it results in the call being unreviewable and a 15 yard penalty???

    GTFO of here...No seriously thats the rule...What the penetrate thats crazy that bullshit will cost teams the game for no reason??? Yep
