The Detroit Lions ended a 10-game losing streak against the Vikings by surviving 20-17 in overtime on Sunday. The Lions' most important ally in this victory was Tarvaris Jackson, who happens to play quarterback for the Vikings.

[size=14pt]Official's error on catch keeps scoring drive alive[/size]
The Vikings scored one offensive touchdown in Sunday's 20-17 overtime loss to Detroit, and they used a dose of chicanery to get that one.

The Lions were leading 7-0 with 10 minutes left in the second quarter. On third-and-8 from Detroit's 41, Robert Ferguson did a turn 10 yards downfield and quarterback Tarvaris Jackson threw a low ball.

Bollinger should have to run wind sprints until he DROPS for that game-losing fumble!

I read most of them.. lots of small things lost this one for us..

if we could just have done 1 or 2 things different in that game.. we would have a different score.

all in all i see 1 thing that everyone says..
