Refs handed them that score. 7 for the refs.

Every time we get remotely close to coming back its a comedy or errors and screw ups to put us right back out of the game.

I would agree if the ball wasnt ten feet over his head ! But its a moot point once its in the books its in the booksyezzir wrote:

Dude. Yes..He could've. It looks different from the angle that we got, but those throws are designed to be high like that. If there's no one there to jump, of course it goes 5 yards out of bounds.Just Me wrote: It was 5 yards OOB. Even if Johnson was unhindered he couldn't have caught the ball in bounds...
Besides...The holding happend before or at the same time that Stafford released...Altering the throw?

I can't agree. Hit to the head, and a PI by Rhodes. Both were legit calls whether the rules are stupid or not.

Re: Vikings @ Lions Game Day Discussion Thread -- Week 1
The defense is just as worse as the offense.
Re: Vikings @ Lions Game Day Discussion Thread -- Week 1
It's speculative either way you look at it. IMHO (even with him leaping at the sideline, he wouldn't have caught it. It's a moot point now anyway...)PacificNorseWest wrote: Dude. Yes..He could've.
