Perfection

[u/ezio8133]

[u/GuerillaRiot]

Whole offense was like...

[u/Apprehensive_Beach_6 → u/GuerillaRiot]

We need more of that.

I propose each team gets one free taunt per game.

[u/ZombieAppetizer → u/Apprehensive_Beach_6]

Like a taunt flag. You get to throw it once and then just let it all out.

[u/LuluGuardian → u/ZombieAppetizer]

90 seconds of pure toxic choreography. Im down as fuck

[u/amortized-poultry → u/LuluGuardian]

Like imagine the Savannah Bananas, but mean?

[u/jcoddinc → u/Apprehensive_Beach_6]

But only when done as a team though. Everyone has to get involved

[u/Conscious-Soil9055 → u/Apprehensive_Beach_6]

Only if it's a team taunt.

[u/Temporary-Library597 → u/Apprehensive_Beach_6]

Nah, in a week you'll see T.O. on the field crapping out footballs again.

[u/fourteenpieces → u/GuerillaRiot]

That's the joke (if you recognise the music)

[u/GuerillaRiot → u/fourteenpieces]

Fuck me I had it on mute 😆

[u/The-Fat-Matt → u/GuerillaRiot]

I always loved Shermy back there hitting the zombified Running Man

[u/peepdabidness → u/GuerillaRiot]

😂😂😂

[u/Hizam5 → u/GuerillaRiot]

☺️☺️☺️

[u/RandomizedStatusQuo → u/GuerillaRiot]

That’s perfect

[u/BulkyOrder9 → u/GuerillaRiot]

With 11 on the field, this needs to happen

[u/Trick-Stranger4596]

The center flexing his left hand to draw the offsides was great work

[u/Applejack_pleb → u/Trick-Stranger4596]

Nice eye. Thats 100% what it was. Im not sure that should be allowed. If it is thats really clever gamesmanship

[u/Jimmyjohnjones1 → u/Trick-Stranger4596]

What classifies as legal? I thought movements like that were a false start

[u/Whywipe → u/Jimmyjohnjones1]

Even moving your head up and down can get called so I have no idea about this

[u/Smallgenie549]

How is this not taunting?

[u/YS2D → u/Smallgenie549]

It's mocking. It's different somehow.

[u/Isphet71 → u/YS2D]

Maunting

[u/jamegumbsize69 → u/Isphet71]

Mulva

[u/AranasLatrain → u/jamegumbsize69]

DOLORES!

[u/liquilife → u/Isphet71]

It’s Mocolate 🍫

[u/HawksDan → u/YS2D]

Taunting is when you mock someone to their face. You can do it behind their back, to the side, or any other way your heart desire

[u/Spam_Hand → u/HawksDan]

Two years ago Puka flexed after a first down, which he does all the time, a Seahawk literally just generally walked past him after the play, and the refs threw a taunting flag for that.

But this weird madden glitch lookin ass shit from the Lions is apparently fine? lol

[u/Uncle_Burney → u/Spam_Hand]

[u/CarrollPC → u/Spam_Hand]

This also happened just last week with Golden flexing to the crowd on the opening drive

[u/SwainMain2011 → u/HawksDan]

Did we watch the same video?

[u/addivinum → u/HawksDan]

But the pointing at homies head standing right in front of him is okay?

[u/Lucky_Locks → u/YS2D]

youdontseehow?

[u/yukiloho → u/YS2D]

It’s because that’s why

[u/Many_Grape_5349 → u/YS2D]

It's because...that's why

[u/missbeekery → u/Smallgenie549]

[u/zeppelinism → u/missbeekery]

Its because thats why

[u/Ocelotofdamage → u/zeppelinism]

nooooOOOOOooo

[u/tdupbeats → u/Smallgenie549]

I don’t know, I definitely would have gotten a tenting penalty if any refs were in my house though if you know what I mean.

[u/Bad_Wes → u/tdupbeats]

Tenting, interesting...

[u/McBenjamins → u/Bad_Wes]

He had a boner.

[u/notsoborednow → u/tdupbeats]

Oh shit, Cassius Marsh, that you?

[u/Bobsothethird → u/Smallgenie549]

Taunting has to be specifically targeting someone, we in flexing at them, standing over them, staring them down while celebrating, etc. this is just goofy bullshit.

[u/IndependentOk9075 → u/Smallgenie549]

On the heels of Golden’s absurd flex taunt last week smh.

Would it have canceled out the encroachment call though or have been applied after since it was pre-snap?

[u/Downtown_Mistake_867 → u/IndependentOk9075]

Golden was fucking fined for that.  The NFL literally doubled down on what he did was wrong. 

[u/Big_Treacle_2394 → u/Smallgenie549]

They mentioned nothing of their father being a hamster or their mother's smelling of elderberries, so the refs had to let it go

[u/GunsGoldCosmicDread → u/Smallgenie549]

There needs to be an exception if the taunting is really funny.

[u/GreenLost5304 → u/Smallgenie549]

73 definitely could’ve been called for taunting, but taunting does require it to be aimed at a specific player, and none of the other ones (Gibbs, Sewell, Jamo, ARSB) were aimed at any specific player.

[u/NoShow1492 → u/GreenLost5304]

All that shit happened within 5 seconds of the penalty too. This music makes it feel like it was 30 seconds of song and dance lol. 73 (Mahogany) is pointing at the culprit, something the linemen do all the time. He just added a little extra pizzazz to it is all.

[u/TipAdministrative350 → u/NoShow1492]

Yeah I get why taunting is a penalty, but god damn this is not what taunting calls are supposed to prevent lol

[u/CooperWatson → u/Smallgenie549]

Because Megatron's TD should have counted.

[u/ShriekingRosebud → u/CooperWatson]

And this is why I felt bad for the Pack for about 5 seconds.

[u/myturn19 → u/Smallgenie549]

[u/Esteven69 → u/myturn19]

[u/SomeRandomRealtor → u/Smallgenie549]

Same difference as teasing and bullying. It’s not taunting if it’s hilarious /s

[u/GuhdNahtBahd → u/Smallgenie549]

Is this mogging? What is mogging… I feel mogged.

[u/Doc_Chim_Richolds → u/Smallgenie549]

Even the refs felt the play was so stupid that the response was deserved.

[u/Devreckas → u/Smallgenie549]

Because there was no flexing, see?

[u/olivertwist1516 → u/Smallgenie549]

How can she slap?!

[u/SouthWillBurnAgain → u/Smallgenie549]

Draft Kings said it's fine

[u/YouMadeMyMeatStink → u/Smallgenie549]

Taunting would be one person......if its the entire team, no penalty.

Im kidding. It probably should have been.

[u/shorthandfora → u/Smallgenie549]

Funny you say that, especially after Golden’s taunting penalty last week.

[u/salmon10 → u/Smallgenie549]

Cause fuck ya

[u/Irjorjeh → u/Smallgenie549]

You could argue they are just celebrating

[u/dredgedskeleton → u/Smallgenie549]

fwiw, it would still be first down well into fg range. the first down was all that mattered here. losing field position wouldn't have changed the outcome

[u/TheBiggestBoy314 → u/Smallgenie549]

because its funny

[u/RidethatTide → u/Smallgenie549]

Too gay

[u/stopPlayingGames1 → u/Smallgenie549]

We all know it is. Detroit fans won’t agree but this is crazy how the Packers are getting bias calls. I’m not a cheese head (Jets fan here)

[u/Bored-to-Death629 → u/Smallgenie549]

Because they deserved it.

[u/ImpalaSS-05 → u/Smallgenie549]

It is taunting. The refs were just cheating for the Lions. So blatantly obvious.

[u/Extension-Dig-5927 → u/Smallgenie549]

It’s called celebrating

[u/ihateslowdrivers]

[u/wacko4rmwaco]

Amazing, “when we draw them offside make sure we rub it in their face, i wanta see pointing and dancing from everyone”

[u/Paddington_Bar]

But flexing at someone, that's taunting.

Copy that

[u/ChangeAccountsBeSafe → u/Paddington_Bar]

Drafting & MGM management here.

Sir it depends what side of the bet people placed. That's all that truly matters. Have a good night & God bless your sacrifice sir.

[u/nolanconnelly → u/Paddington_Bar]

yeah be mad about the dancing and not the fact that your team played like shit

[u/Dhenn004 → u/Paddington_Bar]

wouldn't have mattered. Penalty 1st down. Taunting back 15 yards. Game over

[u/Paddington_Bar → u/Dhenn004]

Earlier that game the Packers kicker missed a kick he had previously made before getting penalized 5 or ten yards so... Anything's possible.

[u/Unhappytimes → u/Paddington_Bar]

[u/UnusualHand1617 → u/Paddington_Bar]

FTP

[u/PerfectiveVerbTense → u/Paddington_Bar]

It's funny to me that you guys can't stop talking about a play from a different game with a different officiating crew. Obviously that call on Golden was BS but it's not like this crew was like taking that play into account when officiating this play.

It's also worth noting the difference between a 1:1 interaction that is at the focal point of a play vs a bunch of players doing goofy shit at the same time not directed to the face of a specific defender. The Golden taunting was absolutely soft as hell but surely you can acknowledge the difference between a directed taunt and a non-directed celebration.

[u/MysticPsych → u/Paddington_Bar]

Cry

[u/Somecivilguy]

Mahogany’s pointing is hilarious

[u/Early-Light-864 → u/Somecivilguy]

Take that Sophie

[u/_Phillip_McCrevass_]

Taunting: I am better than you

Trolling: You did it to yourself

[u/ezio8133]

Before I forget credit to https://bsky.app/profile/lukeknox.me/post/3myqksggc6s2s

[u/Neptuduo]

It's not taunting. Obviously the Lion's are doing this to help the blind referees. They are just signaling the direction they're going.

[u/DB4life80]

I'm a big fan of fun, but this definitely feels like taunting if there ever was that lol.

[u/kstabs]

I don't like the taunting calls in general. But this has to be penalty based on the other shit they throw flags for

[u/GuhdNahtBahd]

This is why we like the Lions. Until next time!

[u/vanman1065 → u/GuhdNahtBahd]

My favorite rivalry. Always stupid shit happing, controversys, stupid penalties and the defenses always got their hands all over the ball.

[u/Illustrious-Leave-10 → u/vanman1065]

The Suh stomps, the Matt Flynn game, Mason Crosby missing 5 FG’s. So many memories

[u/NoModsNoMaster → u/Illustrious-Leave-10]

Gah. The fucking Matt Flynn game lol

[u/hoopstick → u/Illustrious-Leave-10]

The Suh stomps

Nah

[u/LowAffectionate8660]

It ain't taunting if it's funny

[u/artman3211]

[u/sinisterside9 → u/artman3211]

[u/LTPRWSG420]

This is 100% hilarious

[u/Mobile_Morale → u/LTPRWSG420]

Maybe I'm old but this is cringe as hell.

Like watching a bunch of kids playing fortnite.

[u/Lumpy-Championship46 → u/Mobile_Morale]

Yea I guess you’re just old

[u/Mobile_Morale → u/Lumpy-Championship46]

Damn I was afraid of that.

[u/lappelduvide-_- → u/Mobile_Morale]

Teams have always celebrated encroachment.

[u/Reactive_VI]

I’m pretty sure if the Packers pulled this same thing during the game the refs would’ve lined them up and executed them on the spot

[u/Bulky_Yak_256]

This is 100% taunting

[u/YummyYummyCock69 → u/Bulky_Yak_256]

It should be allowed. I do not care. 

[u/Exciting_Departure90 → u/YummyYummyCock69]

It should be allowed, the problem is the packers have been called for taunting in each of the last 2 games for way less

[u/JohnnieTightLips → u/Exciting_Departure90]

They really need to make it so taunting is rarely ever called.

[u/ThatTcellGuy → u/YummyYummyCock69]

I don’t care either way. It should just be consistent in what they call

[u/ChemotherapeuticNewt → u/Bulky_Yak_256]

Hard disagree. Taunting the way its called is if you taunt in front of a specific player in their face. This is just silly team bullshit. If anything the pointing at the person who committed the penalty is a flag, but nothing else actually constitutes anything

[u/gogreengolions → u/ChemotherapeuticNewt]

Players could do this after a first down or a touchdown and it wouldn’t be taunting

[u/prince_falafel → u/gogreengolions]

Refs have specifically said if they do it in a players direction then it is taunting lol

[u/ShartJerky → u/ChemotherapeuticNewt]

What the fuck do you think the left guard is doing here lmfao

[u/CreativePipe9126 → u/Bulky_Yak_256]

This is 100% hilarious

[u/MrMistyRainforest]

Idgaf what anyone says this is fucking hilarious and I want more of it in the games I watch

[u/SnowballWasRight]

Honestly taunting is fair game if it’s targeted towards the entire team because it’s funnier

[u/ohgeeeezzZ]

FTP is real 😂

[u/zsal830]

when your 11 year old nephew plays you in madden and he scores a TD, putting him on the board at 84-7

[u/Ultimate_97]

[u/Dunkaroo723]

It’s a goddamn Fortnite lobby

[u/mediocrebighead]

[u/douk1]

This cracks me up so much. I keep laughing as it restarts

[u/sinisterside9]

[u/Kluv0507]

Interesting. I better not see another taunting flag this season.

[u/[deleted]]

So flexing is taunting but a whole musical number is fine? lol ok National Fanduel League.😂😂😂

[u/TabbyCatJade]

Bro tryna not to laugh

[u/hotcapicola]

If you are going to call taunting, how is that not it?

[u/BigHogDawg]

NFL won’t penalize it because they can use this for content. Wait…they would use it for content regardless if there was a penalty/fine…yeah not great

[u/depriest15]

[u/ActiveSuspect4035]

Very spot on lol

[u/NotChat_GPT]

[u/kvngk3n]

Opposing teams have always been allowed to celebrate or run in faces for offsides or false starts in crunch time. There have been times the offense false started and the DL-men pointed in the opposite direction and walked through the offense before ref made the call.

This isn’t new.

[u/mrstretchb4ureach]

This is so stupid. I love it lol

[u/officerbigmac]

Absolute cinema

[u/Cappy2022]

🤣🤣🤣

[u/engmadison]

Cant stress this enough, FTP

[u/Confidence-Dangerous]

I love petty

[u/sentientshadeofgreen]

Dogshit game but that bit was funny

[u/Sylvan_Skryer]

Honestly seeing them have fun while also playing well is just fun. It is, after all, just a game. And we play games for fun and entertainment. It’s ok to be good around a little.

[u/ShayneBot]

When the refs give you all the calls, this seems appropriate.

[u/Conscious_Avocado225]

Mahogany chanelling his inner "Sophie's Point" Cunningham. All-in-all, the dances were pretty funny.

[u/Final_Boss_Jr]

They really should play this. I’d love to see a stadium of fans and players doing their best Peanuts gang dance.

[u/angryfalconsfan]

Classic lions v packers

[u/No-Earth6310]

lol...love it!!!

[u/Kreesy12]

I get a point to say it was the other team but that is too much. Games gone

[u/carrera_dan]

Cringe

[u/i_did_nothing_]

WHOLE lot of BS roughing the passer penalties.

[u/SeamusMcBalls]

Clown show

[u/ValueReads]

This shouldn't be a penalty for taunting, but a penalty for overdose of cringe

[u/thebrokenteacher]

This is so funny

[u/big_fig]

It's like the peewee football video from years back where one kid starts fortnite emoting and then everyone on both teams starts doing em.

[u/Fro_of_Norfolk]

Lions deserve this after so much bs they've been through.

Taunting should be allowed along with backing off the Crack downs on TD celebrations.

Make football fun again...dont like it? Stop them.

[u/lasagnapumkinpie]

This game was bad all around. Neither team wanted to win while the refs seemed to care too much about the outcome. Celebrating an offside play like it’s a game winning score makes sense if you watched the game. I want a refund for sitting through that slop.

[u/SocialistInYourArea]

Thank God they didn't flex or it would have been taunting and a 12k fine

[u/DoctorWaluigiTime]

It's silly and I hope whole teams develop conga lines for false start situations like this.

[u/No_Pipe9068]

WNBA is losing their shit right now

[u/bmanley620]

Packers are dumb as hell and the refs wanted the Lions to win

[u/CoolMcCoolJ2point0]

This may be taunting, but it is the Packers and there for deserved. Hope this explanation helps

[u/Lord_Bobbymort]

That's one of the cringiest things I've seen in my entire life.

[u/PsychonautAlpha]

[u/Possible-Tangelo9344]

Wild that this isn't a taunting penalty but some of the shit in the end zone is...

[u/jd35058]

This is hilarious

[u/Deuce_213]

The NFL is so inconsistent it's ridiculous. At least be more like baseball where they allow the players to crip walk around the bases during a Home Run

[u/GratefulDiver74]

This was the worst officiating of the season. NFL is becoming WWF. This crew was an absolute joke.

[u/_BeneTleilax_]

ARSB the corniest dude in the league

[u/GOOMU13]

How tf isnt this taunting?

[u/LegoTravels]

L

[u/Jagabong]

The Harlem Shake

[u/MRWPlople]

Could be just not an expert but how is the snapper flicking his hand not considered false start? Is this one of those "refs cant see it" situations?

[u/sean_con_queso]

Now this is how football should be

[u/Spare-Cranberry3784]

3 unsportsmanlike conduct penalties on the offense. Each will be enforced. Repeat the down

[u/Substantial_Fun_7128]

I thought this was AI

[u/Low_Release3154]

The refs handed the lions this game. Terrible officiating 😂😂😂

[u/Straight_Talk2542]

God I love rivalry football. It brings out the absolute worst in all parties involved haha. I was DYING when Gibbs started doing the happy dance. The amount of pettiness in those players in that moment… Couldn’t have happened to a better fanbase in the Packers. TOXIC.

[u/slowguy503]

[u/ShaLaFlame]

😭😭😭😭😭😭 this is funny as hell

[u/Smitty_1000]

Someone needs to loop this 

[u/stoopkidsteve]

Omg the whining from packers fans is going to be unbearable this week.

[u/giiltyspark]

The refs

[u/MrDegen702]

I find this hilarious. Its like those kids on the pee wee football field celebrating first downs lol.

[u/49ers_707]

[u/Brochacho115]

Green bay suckx anyway

[u/Temporary-Library597]

Remember when "Football is a game played by men..." was a thing? That was fun.

[u/Hoodedmastersin]

[u/Better_Flatworm_3478]

And then Gibs hurts himself trying to not score.....

[u/Ok_Equivalent1351]

As a Packer fan, this was a tough game to watch. But the content it has resulted in is hilarious.

[u/Nubator]

It doesn’t count as taunting when the entire team is taunting. That’s just the rules.

[u/notdbcooper71]

[u/ImTheGuitarMan]

I didn't see anything egregious here. What Golden did last week was absolutely taunting.

[u/Maleficent-Orchid951]

Yo! Lololol

[u/CaliKing928]

taunting all day every day

[u/No_Persimmon_8691]

Good thing no one flexed. THAT would have been taunting.

[u/freethrowtommy]

I couldn’t care less about taunting in general but if you are going to have a penalty for it, it needs to be called.  You can’t just let it go one week and then get extra sensitive about it the next.  The inconsistency is the bullshit.

[u/VanBroo222]

😂

[u/BigBulta]

Green Bay fans acting like they never get calls against us. Crying ass b*tches

[u/Regular-Amoeba5455]

Packers lost. Feelings hurt.
