Basically, the Lions wanted the Cowboys to think Skipper was reporting as eligible and that Decker was not. Which would have caused the Cowboys to cover Skipper, not Decker, when the play unfolded. The problem is that, in trying to confuse the Cowboys, the Lions confused Allen.

The problem is only one of them actually tells the ref that he's reporting so you basically have to be a moron to get confused, so of course the ref got confused.

The play was successful since it was intended to confuse but it only confused the ref.
