Between the weather and the execution from the teams, it was about as messy and clumsy example of football you’ll ever see in this Week 10 matchup between the Detroit Lions and the Pittsburgh Steelers. The game ended everyone’s misery with a 16-16 tie.
Each team had a plethora of opportunities to seal the victory, but each time it was squandered with inept play or boneheaded mistakes that made it a tough watch. For that matter, the Lions play calling seemed to be taken straight out of a high playbook, where it was downright frustrating to muster any energy into the game. This was one of those games where neither team deserved to walk away with a victory.
There were a few moments that gave the Lions some life against the Steelers, but then there were others you could tell were going to be the death to any hopes of a win. That turned out to be the case in this week’s studs and duds.
