Nice running, but can someone tell me what universe Murray ran a 4.3 at the combine? Nothing against the guy but he doesn't look like he even has 4.5 speed, what happened?

4.3 without pads and helmet, several years ago, before ankle injury. He’s not a speed burner.

I know. He looks so slow. Gotta be the ankle injury/surgery.

Don't want this game to turn into a shootout like the Redskins game. Defense needs to step up right here and force a punt

Glad to see the Sendejo missile is back. With those arms you'd think he'd try to wrap up every once in awhile.

lions get the refs help to march down the field and score. Refs moved from the 50 to the end zone. Pathetic
