Heard this before? Dan Campbell and Lions fans furious over bad penalty on Taylor Decker

At least Taylor Decker didn't get in trouble for not reporting as eligible this time.

Still, there was a little deja vu on Sunday in Detroit. The Detroit Lions lined up for a fourth-and-5 during the NFC wild-card playoff game when the Los Angeles Rams jumped offsides. But as the Lions and their fans celebrated, the officials got together and decided that Lions left tackle Decker moved first.

Replays showed that wasn't the case. Decker — who was in the center of a huge officiating controversy earlier this season, when refs didn't register him reporting as eligible before he caught a 2-point conversion pass — didn't even flinch before Rams linebacker Ernest Jones jumped into the neutral zone.
