Crap.

AND we lose 10 seconds.

AND Ford didn't quite get both feet down.

A new QB a new RB and a new old stock receiver. Things are looking up.

That 10-second runoff is garbage.

The Vikings had a timeout. If the ref would have called him down, we would have called a timeout.

Hate that rule.

Why did the clock run down? Can't we take a time out?

Yes, the offense also gets credit but when receivers are open by 10-15 yards all the time, that's on the defense.

What got jobbed. What a god-awful #### rule. That just cost us a TD. I am livid.

They should have tried to run the ball in. Give it to Felton or Asiata. Then call time out if you don't make it.

Ditto. It may have just cost the Vikes 4 points.

Ford made a heck of an effort on that near-TD.

What a stupid call, run a dive or QB sneak and you can easily use your timeout. Instead you call a slow developing rollout? :wallbang:
