No. In fact, only nine teams have done this in NFL history. Five won the Super Bowl.

Bench Branch. I mean it. He's costing us points.

They just look exhausted.

That was an early flag, it was thrown with a second left. Making up for Baltimore in 2021?

I'm not a big play call complainer, but I don't get that play call.

#16 with the block!!! Ugliest looking block I've ever seen.... but a block!

I don't think you can change anything on offense. Seven more may not be enough.

NO GOOD

Dan Campbell nearly tackled Amik to stop him from drawing a penalty lol

Only the 5th 3rd down of the game for SF.

Actually decent coverage by Iffy on that, just dropped it in the bucket.

The pass rush literally looks like they don't know what to do when the offensive line gives them a free shot at Purdy.

Good decision, good play call, hell yes. You can't settle for 3 with this defense.

That's a frustrating 2nd and goal. Goff had all day and all night.

They showed him on the sideline with a bandaid on his face. Probably just a rotation thing.

Feels like the dozens of runs up the middle are setting up a flea flicker soon.

Not sure why we keep letting them return these kickoffs if they're gaining past the 30 every time.

It's going to take a fluke turnover on defense.

Decker looked like a rookie on that.

I wouldn't be surprised to see the Lions go for two again. If you like your odds to go at least 1/2 on two consecutive attempts, you have nothing to lose, and possibly the game winning point to gain.

I don't think they'll even delay it really. When the big dogs say goodbye, they're leaving and not looking back, even if those they are leaving throw a temper tantrum.. At most, they'll get some relatively small amount of money to make them go away. I would love to see relegation. It would be awesome. But the Vanderbilts, Northwesterns, Kentuckys, and Illinois of the world have enough friends to prevent it. Rutgers doesn't, they could be relegated and no one would care.

I held up the ✌️ before Campbell did. Tied up!
