This is just wrong...
Last Week's Challenge
In keeping with the time-travel plots plaguing Star Trek Enterprise, the Challenge was to name some aspect of the NFL timeline that future space travelers should come backward in time to alter.
Carol Lang-Drapala of Norman, Okla., wants the Federation crew to prevent the Houston Oilers of 1992 from blowing their 35-3 playoff lead over the Bills. Carol -- the Oilers could have done that themselves simply by running the ball in the second half, rather than repeatedly throwing incomplete and stopping the clock.

I love this one.
Dorsey Howard of Harrisburg, Pa., suggested the Enterprise should return to the Music City Miracle game and use its advanced sensors to show that the "lateral" was a forward pass.
And this one...
Many readers, including Charles K. Smith, suggested that time travelers should make Scott Norwood's last-second kick in the Bills-Giants Super Bowl go through. Charles, my feeling is that Norwood's kick did go through, but sinister Giants fans from the future altered the timeline. Jason Sheehan of Newport News, Va., adds that if the timeline was altered so that Norwood's kick goes in, the Bills would surely still be wearing red, white and American flag blue -- not to put too fine a point on it, but the single-most successful color scheme in world history.
