Ndamukong Suh flagged for shot at the knees, Lions’ score erased

First fine of the day? Could be going to Ndamukong Suh, the controversial Detroit defensive tackle, whose low block on an interception return wiped out a Lions’ pick-six.

Early in the second quarter against Minnesota, Christian Ponder’s pass for Jerome Simpson on a quick slant was deflected. The ball was picked off by DeAndre Levy and returned 34 yards for an apparent touchdown.

But the score was wiped out by a flag on Suh, who dived at the knees of Vikings lineman John Sullivan. Suh was called for a personal foul.

That moved the Lions back, and Matthew Stafford’s ensuing floating pass over the middle was intercepted.
