I didn’t like the timeout. Take the ten-point lead.

Also annoyed me that the broadcast was showing replays while not letting us know the relevant information that a timeout had been called. The clock was running when the replays started, then rejoins the live shot 20 seconds later with the clock stopped.

Why do people just assume the Vikings were gonna go into a shell if Campbell didn't call that timeout? They were trying to get points before the half so they were gonna try to pick up that 3rd and long one way or another the Campbell timeout didn't change their philosophy. 

If the Lions would've been able to stop said 3rd and long they would've had the ball back at the 20 with a minute left and two timeouts, plenty of time to get into FG range or put in a dagger TD before the half. People bitch about the team letting off the gas then when they try to go for the kill and it backfires people bitch about that too.

The lions would have gotten the ball back without about 30 seconds. Not a minute.

Another pathetic start out of halftime, when it happens a couple times I think maybe it's just a coincidence or fluke but when it happens every week there obviously is some problem. 

Aaron Glenn is the ****ing problem. And Campbell more so for not holding anyone accountable.
