The Lions also had a chance to stop the Bears at the end of the 4th and get the ball back, but couldn't do that either. This call had much less bearing on the game than some Lions fans would like to admit.

The fine is garbage and so was the call. But let's not act like it handed the Bears the game, because it didn't.
I'm not talking about conspiracies, I was just saying I'm glad someone at least understands what its like to have your players get roughing the passer calls out of nowhere. And I'm not saying that every roughing the passer call on the Steelers is BS, but we seem to have gotten quite a few questionable ones recently.
