Lions coach on nixed TD: 'Over and done with'

ALLEN PARK, Mich. -- Detroit Lions coach Jim Caldwell had no interest in complaining Monday about the overturned Golden Tate touchdown and consequent 10-second run-off that turned his team from winners to losers against the Atlanta Falcons.

Caldwell dismissed questions about whether or not there should have been more than 10 seconds on the clock when the play was stopped -- which would have given Detroit more time. Caldwell said there were eight seconds remaining on the clock.

"I think everybody can split hairs and look at it differently and all that kind of stuff," Caldwell said.
