Why would you not challenge that 3rd down, Robison had the FBs knee down

They blew it. Didn't see it, I guess.

That was a much too long of a drive, though. Vikings got dinked and dunked to death there. Could use some more pass rush but Stafford is getting rid of it quick.

I think the gametime last week hurt this team more than we thought. They look so much more crisp today. Playing at home helps, too. I would like to see them win every home game this year. Wishful thinking, I know, but in the NFL, the teams that make the playoffs are the teams that dominate at home.

They should have challenged that 3rd down play, he was over a yard short. I never understand how the team can let that happen with today's technology. There should be one person looking at every play when it is done. That #### pisses me off.

Agreed. He's been getting hit, though. Stafford is just good at finding recievers.

I don't think it was that clear at all. I thought he made it on second effort prior to his knee going down.
