Stampede Blue CHALLENGE?



I'm not sure why I haven't seen this asked so I am going to do so:

 

What exactly was the point of that challenge of a two yard reception by Caldwell?  I can't remember exactly but i think it was in the second quarter and it was on about a second down and about 7 to go.  Who cares if you get back two yards in that situation?

 

What is the point of challenging that reception?  Even if you know you will win you have wasted a potentially valuable challenge for later on a play that may make a difference (long gain, third down, etc...).  Is this not another indication of the coaching staffs inability to manage a professional football game?  Even I was yelling at the TV why challenge in that situation?!?!?!

 

Anybody else notice this?
