Providing Context for the Detroit Lions Decision to Run on 3rd and 7.
InsideThePylon

Part of the fun of watching a football game is second-guessing the play calling. From the comfort of their couches (or Twitter), fans will criticize an offensive coordinator for running too much or too little, not helping a struggling lineman enough, not using a dangerous weapon, or any number of other sins.
One curious play that undoubtedly had Detroit Lions fans yelling at their televisions came in the fourth quarter of Detroit?s 16-13 Thanksgiving Day victory over the Minnesota Vikings.
Trailing by 3 with 10 minutes left in the game and facing third-and-seven, the Lions ran Theo Riddick up the middle for 3 yards. What could offensive coordinator Jim Bob Cooter have been thinking?
