Could someone indicate for me how this admittedly hilarious gaffe was a gamechanger? Or how it was even REMOTELY important in any respect whatsoever?

I live in Minneapolis, so I have a distinct advantage of listening to Viking fans bicker. I've said it before and I'll say it again, the unfounded McCarthy hate sounds like Viking fans.

Now, you can substantiate a criticism. But that takes writing more than one sentence. Claim, evidence, reasoning. It's not rocket science.

William Henderson didn't have to run people over. His preferred method was levitation.

Hey, didn't it seem like everyone was a little confused about the challenges today?

This is a horseshit complaint on probably the best complete game we have played all season.

Complain about the penalties... but I didn't think the Nelson challenge was a bad one.. the Williams one was brilliant.. and if they refs are confused.. why not try to sneak one in.

I am all for knocking MM head around.. but this is a little to nitpicky even for me. 😉

I don't think it was a mistake in any way shape or form. I think it was a deliberate gambit to buy our defense some time. The one who actually looked silly in this situation was the referee, compliantly going under the hood when everyone else in the stadium knew the challenge was bogus.

McCarthy need to fire the guy upstairs yelling Challenge that, or at least wait as long as possible before throwing it.

On Nelson's challenge, he should have challenged the spot, and he would have won. Still wouldn't have been a TD but we would have saved a TO.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

That 3rd challenge was nice. Stop the momentum. Had the flag mine as well use it.

Reminded me of Bielema with the offsides on the kick offs to chew clock.

(The actual challenges of the referees' calls.)
Oh, challenges. OK. I challenged one too many. That's the first point and that was my fault. Where do you want to go from there? Do you want to go through each one?
