Remember also, for OT, Dallas has a much better kicker than the Lions. And if all the Lions had managed was a tie after 10 minutes, that would have knocked them out of the 2 seed anyways.

They lost by 1 point to a 10-5 team that we are told NEVER loses at home. With a defense that I thought would get lit up holding Dallas to 20 points. Hell, this may have been their 2nd most impressive game all year after the KC game. I feel better about this team’s chances than I did 4 hours ago. Dallas had just as many chances to have won more easily - the first interception, the touchback, passing instead of burning clock, letting the Lions offense go 75 yards in a minute.

My only problem with the 2 point decision was trying a 3rd time. Presumably you’ve already used up your two best play calls by then.

In an alternate universe, I’m going to take Dan Miller’s call of the 1st attempt of the 2 Pt conversion as definitive and forget what happened starting seconds later. Lions Convert 2 Pt Covnersion.m4a

Now don’t spike. Take 4 shots. Geez Louise.

I don’t think you need to be spiking here yet.

Of course. Just speaking time-wise.

Drive for a TD and go for 2 for the win.

So basically the INT is only going to cost the Lions about 20 seconds off the clock.

Prescott doing the Lions a favor with the incomplete!

If Goff has simply thrown it a bit more outside like he easily would have, the Lions would have made it 2nd and 5 and set up nicely.

3rd and 10 with 4:19 to go. Get a stop here and it would be set up perfectly.

It’s like 3 Cowboys defenders looked and expected it after the ball fell incomplete.

I saw that, but looks (I hope) like something he just needs to walk off a bit.

lol, that’s what I was thinking. Imagine how nervous we will be if Badgley has to make a 44 yarder to win a playoff game, down by a point.

Whew, glad they didn’t run a play

I think that counts as a “little more out of the passing game”!

I thought for a split second he had pushed it but then it immediately came back into the middle. The guy never misses

Lions lead! What a drive.

That 1st down would have been perfect chance to pass. So predictable they’d stuff that. No worries, Reynolds then takes it inside the 10.

Camera barely got back from the shot of the cheerleader’s underboob to show the Lions’ 4th down conversion

Too many tackles for a loss.

I bet Cowboys fans are no happier with how the game has gone so far than Lions fans.

4-point deficit at halftime isn’t horrible, I probably would have taken it before the game, but very weird way of getting there.

Yards on 1st down haven’t been the problem.
