For the second straight game, a hit to Sam Darnold’s head resulted in a no-call by the officials and it costs the Vikings.
During Week 8’s Thursday Night Football game, there was a blatant facemask that sealed the game or the Rams over the Vikings that wasn’t called.
Early in the second quarter, Colts defensive tackle Grover Stewart steamrolled center Garrett Bradbury and got into the backfield. He appeared to make contact to the head of Darnold as he threw him down. Darnold lost the ball on the play and it was scooped up by Kenny Moore II, who darted to the end zone for a defensive touchdown.
A referee initially threw a flag on the play but picked it up after a discussion with the crew.
