Lions head coach Dan Campbell is facing some criticism over his late-game decision vs the Cowboys.

Late in the fourth quarter, the Lions drove down the field while down seven points to score a touchdown and were able to cut the lead down to one.

Campbell decided to go for two, and while successful, the play was called back after offensive lineman Taylor Dekcer didn’t report to the refs as an eligible receiver on the play.

Despite the penalty, Campbell went for it again, but this time, the Cowboys were called for a penalty. After the Cowboys’ penalty, Campbell went for it a third time, but this time was unsuccessful.

Campbell immediately got crushed on the Internet for not kicking an extra point to tie the game to go to overtime.
