No matter how many times the Buccaneers screwed themselves over in the final two minutes against the brand new Lions, Baker Mayfield really played his ass off all season long!
Go bucs!
I’m a huge Mayfield fan just because the man never gives up early, plays with heart and not afraid to play physical
Been rooting for him since Browns sent him away
Lies he played mediocre
@@qkellz931found the guy who clearly didn’t watch the game…..
@@qkellz931He may be mediocre but he went crazy this year. Shoutout ShakeNBake
There was 1:33 on the clock at the time of the interception.
Even if the Bucs called their last time out after the first kneel down (let's say with 1:30 or 90 seconds left), the Lions still have 40 seconds to run off between plays.
2nd down, they take a few seconds off the clock before kneeling. The ball is reset and the whistle starts for the 3rd down snap. 87 seconds left, ball snapped at 47 seconds with a couple more seconds taken off before kneeling. Ball handed to refs, is respotted and the whistle blows for 4th down - under 40 seconds left. Everybody shakes hands.
The reason it looked like so much time was left is that, after snap one, they realised Tampa wasn't calling the time out and there were 14 or more seconds left when they snapped the ball.
They game was over unless a bad snap happened. Not calling the time out was simply good sportsmanship. Period.
No "conspiracy".
My opinion of Baker Mayfield improved and I liked him already. Not only did the dude play his ass off, he showed so much class. His praising the coaching, players and fans of Detroit, taking a selfie immediately after the game with the guy that he was (sorta) beefing with online, hearing the respect Dan Campbell has for him......I really hope that guy is in the league for a long time. What a fantastic opponent he was.
It really looked like both teams forgot that TB had a timeout left. Very weird. And it's hard to believe that in the playoffs you don't pull out all the stops, even if it's a 0.1% chance to win.
I feel like that timeout that was negated by a penalty earlier in the quarter made everyone think they were all gone
@@johnbrandon94016I was going to say the same thing
@johnbrandon94016 except Bowles said in his post-game press conference he knew he had one and just chose not to use it.
@@eesaylor Well what about the freezing conditions in Detroit though? It is clear the cold affected Bowles’ game plan and he needs to address that.
@@costco_pizza Detroit has an indoor stadium man.
"Todd Bowles acted like he didn't have a timeout" 😂
He fooked up he should just own it
Todd Bowles is too nice. He doesn't have that killer instinct.
Was there confusion about whether or not the timeout was available or not? It was taken, and then put back after the penalty. Did they get it wrong on the TV graphic?
That’s cause he didn’t have any timeouts 🤦🏻♂️ if you watched the game we used all 3 timeouts before 3 mins………
@@rektzyt1778no they had one but the lions were in field goal range so it was impossible to win
Let’s go Lions I’m rooting for them 100%. Kick those 49’s asses!!!
In your dreams clown
cowboys fan lol
And why the hate on the 49ers?? Most of America stands behind the niners. Their’s is a true underdog story. No one is giving them a chance. It’s time to send the big bullies of the NFL (Detroit Lions) home!!
@@costco_pizza You must be joking. Most analysts are predicting a 49er victory, and the spread is a TD. The Lions are bullies? Are you serious?! They haven't won enough or long enough to be considered bullies. They haven't won a championship since 1957. The fact that most of the country is probably rooting for them is partially out of sympathy over their extremely long exercise in futility. Seeing them finally turn things around and playing exciting football has deservedly gotten a lot of people's attention.
As a Lions fan, I think SF will win next week, perhaps big. I, of course, fervently hope otherwise, but I call them as I see them. Let the play do the talking.
@@costco_pizzawhat ? 😂
As a lifelong lions fan of 44 years. The locker room celebration literally brought tears to my eyes
As a life long packer fan, it’s been nice to see those celebrations in the Packer locker room most years.
Happy for you. Imagine being a resident of St. Louis. We’ve lost 2 teams. Cardinals/Rams.
Yeah but what about the freezing temps in Detroit? Dont you think that was a bit unfair to Bowles and his players? They were freezing out there and Bowles did not have a good game plan. Bowles will need to address playing in the cold.
@@costco_pizza I was about to inform you it was a dome. But then I realized this is purely a troll account. Because all your comments are wild lol
@@chrisweidner4768Dang… good point
Ragnow is our most important player for sure.
If there's ever an example of home field advantage this is it😂 Lions fans were already partying
Because the chances of anything happening were slim to none. They had a very tiny chance at coming back
@@JustYouKnowYea 2015 Michigan vs Michigan State
Lot of idiots in here thinking 48 yard FGs are 100% success rates. Yep. Very low chance Bucs tie it. But in the playoffs, if there is a chance, take it.
Facts
For sure, I’d say it’s almost worth punting tbh.. jack fox sticking them inside 20 with less then 30 and no time outs I think would have better odds then the field goal
With the way these kickers are missing this postseason playoff anything can happen, they definitely need to take that timeout
@@manuelreyes8624 especially badgley he’s like 50% from 50 yards
@@t.j2418 your right. The lions might not even try the FG and instead punt daring the bucs to get a TD and 2 point conversion backed up in their own territory.
Bengals fan here, native to cincy. So so happy for the lions and their fans. They had it worse than us and very very happy for them. I remember saying the same things the first bengals superbowl run a couple years ago. Go lions!!
That’s the Todd Bowles we Jets fans remember 🤦♂️
Big win by our devils last night
Keep in mind - there was a point in the second half where bowles used a timeout that was later nullified by a penalty on bucs defense. I was a bit confused as to how that works because there was no signal about it until the ref started addressing the penalty. Could that have played a part in bowles assuming all his timeouts were gone?
I remember that and the ref actually made a call to the stadium "no timeout was used due to the penalty" or something along those lines. And then at the end of the game I was like huh it says 1 time out and the ref announced it... maybe it's just a graphical error but I guess not LOL
Stadium clocks everywhere show the times outs, not that hard to see
@@justinphillips8317assuming they had it up and weren’t confused either. Plenty of times those boards are wrong or make mistakes
Except Bowles said he knew he had a timeout, but just chose not to use it because he felt the game was already lost. "Delaying the inevitable" (his actual words)
@@Daladier70 and what about the freezing Detroit weather? A lot of people out there are saying that it really affected Bowles and his decision making process. Bowles has to answer for his poor decision making in that frigid weather.
Ngl, when the Lions drafted Gibbs, my jaw hit the floor. I wasn't happy about the pick. But i trusted Brad Holmes and MCDC enough by that point because they crushed their first 2 drafts. Goes to show that we, as average fans, dont know as much as these GM's who are getting paid millions. I will never doubt Holmes again. OnePride Go Lions 🦁
Still don’t think it was a great pick Gibbs is good but other backs could definitely do what he did
I remember when the pick came in I was watching a live stream and I commented "I actually find Brad Holmes hard to predict" and then they said Gibbs and I was immediately proven right lol
Same when they drafted Jamo, I thought for sure they traded up for Kyle Hamilton
@xipper3550 who could lions have drafted at that spot that is more productive than Gibbs?
So far the only 3 more productive rookies are Stroud, Nacua, and LaPorta and 1 of those guys is already a Lion
@@Aaron-kj8dv Christian Gonzalez makes your team way better then Gibbs does. If you don't think so you're actually crazy
@@Aaron-kj8dv I also like JSN and Addison Flowers more, theres several tight ends. taking a back at 12 is absurd.
Ngl I really feel like everyone just simply forgot the Bucs had a timeout left because of a penalty earlier in the game where the Bucs called a timeout but they got it back due to the penalty nullifying it.
Bowles going for 2 on that first TD and not taking a timeout because "they were just gonna kick a field goal" is just really bad coaching.
Absolutely ridiculous to give up like that in a playoff game.
Not going for it on 4th and 2 after some big plays earlier in the game was the start of that for the Bucs. He played conservative when he shouldn't have and then got aggressive when he shouldn't.
That was real goofy and defeatist actitude as a coach
i think the math does support going for 2 there but yeah not taking a timeout was hella wild
going for 2 is correct
@@andrewkarn6963brooo I remember that I was so mad, this is not the time to be playing like that you go for it
Wouldn’t it be ironic if the Lions beat KC on the first and last game of the season…
I’m betting on it! 🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁
That's what I'm saying!!
He absolutely didn’t know they had a timeout. Inexcusable.
The Bucs used a timeout earlier in the second half and then a penalty happened or something and they got their timeout back. I think someone on the Bucs still didn't realize that and they thought they had no timeouts left. They probably just said what they said earlier to save face.
kinda reminds you of Michigans football passion this year in the NCAA. It would be a miracle if the Lions win the superbowl for Michigan.
Its really interesting how many people are saying "ahhh, who cares, the game was over, what are the chances something could have changed." Very interesting mentality.
It's a loser mentality. The reason why Todd Bowles is not HC material. Imagine if Belichik and Brady gave up when down 28-3 against the Falcons? It's not over until the clock hits 0.
@@denniscobos3306 Imagine believing you could come back in that situation down 15 points.😂
@@ggary04 they were down by 8?
@@denniscobos3306 its absolutely a loser mentality. anyone who says "haha u couldn't have come back why even try" will always be armchair analysts
Todd Bowles should be fired. That's one of the sorriest things I've ever heard of, especially considering it's the playoffs!
When MCDC steps on the field as if the game is over, it is so.
Detroit lions momentum is unstoppable!!!! St brown , Gibbs, Montgomery, la porta serious weapons!!!
actually its very stoppable this weekend lol ..49ers will take care of business
Hell of a game. Yes, bucs were most likely not wining that anyway with the timeout, but at the end of the day, it's sloppy coaching - and it has been for 2 years now. Andy Reid / Bill Belichik during patriot dynasty is taking that timeout 100/100 times - ESPECIALLY if he notices that the lions are mentally checked out and celebrating the W already.
Tracy McGrady was down 13 with 50 seconds left and won things happens in sports
@@chicagowest23 100% agree
I’m not a lions fan.. Until a few weeks ago, I couldn’t even name a single player on their team other than Jared Goff. But I wanted them to win that game. And I want them to win the next one. And I want them to win the Super Bowl. Not because of what it would mean to me, but because of what it would mean to that organization and that city.
That's very classy of you.
We’ve been through a lot lol it’s our time we deserve this 😭
Bowles def forgot he had a timeout. Fitting way to end the season considering Bowles was the master at saving timeouts this year
Badgley only hits about 40% of 50+ yard field goals, so it was no gimmie.
48 yards isn't 50+ bud
💯💯💯💯💯
@@Adam-fn3hfIts also not a gimmie
And what about the freezing temperatures in Detroit though? The Bucs players were freezing and Bowles’ game plan was clearly affected. Bowles needs to address this and get better at play calling in cold weather games.
@@costco_pizzaford field is an indoor field man.
I could not believe that either. Especially not running the play clock out.
Dan Campbell is the best, pure coach and probably leader in the NFL. His players would do it all for him.
Every other team fan would love DC as their coach LOL
I just think of how close Texas came in the CFB playoff despite an impossible situation. You still have to try; you never know what might happen.
why does your desk look like a kids messy bedroom
I don’t think the coaches Realized the refs gave Tampa back their time out they called right before they had an injury, late in the 4th. So both teams thought that time out was counted against Tampa and that’s why they played the game out as they did. 🤷🏻♂️
No, Bowles said after the game they were screwed either way, he knew he had the timeout.
@grbggaming6885 maybe he was just covering his ass
Yeah both teams acted like Tampa had no timeouts. Bowles seemed like he was lying to cover his mistake
@@krahn23 They knew the timeout situation, its on every scoreboard, there are numerous coaches on the team and at least one is responsible for the TO situation. I will tell you what happened. The Lions were in FG range with 1st and 10. Bowles conceded the game knowing if he calls his last TO the lions just run the ball and get closer for FG or get another 1st down. So he conceded and Campbell realized and kneeled.
Yeah but wouldn't the timeout be displayed somewhere on the scoreboard unless those guys also forgot?
I didn't notice that at all wow😮
Todd Bowles clearly didn’t prepare his team for the weather in Detroit
Earlier in the game Tampa bay used a time out but it was after a questionable call inside the 5 yd line and up top they used the time to review it and because of that they gave Tampa Bay back there time out I honestly don’t think Tampa bay or the lions even knew they still had that time out
I don't often go to Lions games for the product they put on the field, but this season was very different and it started the pastfew drafts. That game vs Tampa was the loudest sporting event, especially football, that I've ever been to.
MCDCs first presser was awesome.
Going for 2 and losing momentum was possibly the worst call I have EVER seen especially from a coach as conservative as Bowles it literally made NO sense
No it made a lot of sense
I thought i was just crazy. But they def could have called one
I was staring at the screen wondering what the hell was happening. The announcers never said anything so I thought I had read the screen wrong.
I thought I was dumb when they didnt take the timeout
Go lions!
I noticed as soon as he kneeled with 16.6 seconds to go on the play clock like wtf is he doing
Lions guy almost ate his mic
Not since college, since high school, he was amazing and he’s a good person. I was in band and he treated me like another person he respected, I wish nothing but the best for Gibbs
If you haven’t already, I highly recommend Inside the Den episode 3. It includes behind the scenes draft footage and having watched it before the season got going, it was a treat watching these rookies develop!
Yes it really shows how brilliant brad Holmes is... He's the goat.
@@Whispering.Graves What about the freezing conditions in Detroit though? The Bucs players and Bowles were really slowed down by that cold weather. Bowles needs to address his poor decision making during cold weather games.
Got the call from the sports books to let them run the clock
After 32 years, you could consider winning two playoff games as mission accomplished, and act like you're playing with house money. But these guys aren't acting that way. They are operating as though they belong there, and they're just going to stay on schedule
Lions fan here…I was thinking bout this while watching the game wondering the same damn thing! But again as a Lions fan…why would I care. As a coach I’d use that timeout just to give my team another chance. It made no sense but glad we got the W. 🤔
"...so many moments this season...this ain't the same ol' Lions" put it on a T-shirt.
Jared Goff is the man too. No asterisk. He's as good a quarterback as there is in the NFL today.
Barnes' pick took all the fight out of the Bucs...Bowles was like "just end it..."
I was wondering the same thing
Rog called Todd and said you better not take that timeout. Stick the to the goddamn script.
Two games in a row Lions could have covered the spread but didn't. Im so damn happy we won...but i lost again.
When the Lions hired Dan Campbell I thought, "This franchise is forever broken and this is the worst decision they have made yet" and right now I would run through wall for him.
The weird thing is how both teams acted like the bucs had no time outs
When I was watching I’m like Goff is snapping these way to quick, the Bucs could call a timeout and get the ball, what are you guys doing.
I mean I get that it was the gentleman thing to do since had they fully utilized the play clock the time out wouldn’t have mattered. But like it’s the playoffs.
You wouldn't shoot a guy with glasses, would you?
sounds like a coach that quit on his team if you ask me
I think they took a time out and then there was a flag thrown on the previous Loins drive. Because of the flag (penalty on Buccaneers) they gave them the time out back. He may have thought they didn't have one, including the Loins.
My humble take is this: I understand you play to win the game, but these coaches coach in a shared universe: they know each other, worked together, come from the same tree, etc. the lions took the first kneeling and Bowles didn’t call a timeout, the subtext in that moment is that Bowles knew the game is mathematically over and instead of wasting 30 seconds of everyone’s life by calling a timeout he chose to let the game end, he knew the game was mathematically over and took the loss professionally and as a man… if he takes the timeout after the second kneel or later, yes he can get the ball back, but then he’s a snake, a rat, a coward for resorting to those tactics just to get the ball back (and still likely lose). He chose to respect the moment and knew his team lost
Love It Pat ThePatMcafeeShow Bro Let's Gooooooooo.
Todd "Bowels" is guilty of coaching malpractice. He let his entire team and the city down by not doing everything to win.
As a 49er fan I’m scared the script writers are making the perfect Cinderella story line for the Lions
If my 49ers were out I’d be rooting for them because their my grandma’s favorite team
She don’t got much time left and Michigan winning the college title it would be really cool for the Lions to win for her while she’s still alive
More like they want the chiefs and swifties to win to attract more viewers
Dont worry. Outdoor Away Goff, is the script writers worst enemy
Don't worry according to the color of the superbowl logo. It will be 49ers vs Ravens SB.
@@uglymugsamson3015I pray this doesn’t happen so you guys can stfu with this
@@hungrypandastudios6213 Goff beat Green Bay last year in DEC to prevent them from making the playoffs.
As much as I love having Jamaal Williams on the Saints as a Saints fan... He deserves to be riding the wave of success over there.
That was his fault though. He had first dabs to come back but because he didn't agree with the amount that was offered to him by Brad Holmes, which wasn't bad my any means, he decided to venture out to see what he could get.. meanwhile Holmes called up Chicago and upgraded.. to Monty.. had him on backup incase Jamaal didn't fall through.. and what's soo funny about it is that Jamaal had a deadline to let Holmes know and if he didn't we was gonna pull the trigger on Monty..
So let's say Jamaal wanted and was looking for 10 mil right??.. he was getting like 5 mil in Detroit his previous contract.. Holmes said something like "ok we can do you like 7.5.." well because he waited so long Holmes pulled the trigger on Monty.. then that left Jamaal in no man's land and desperate for a team and at the end of the day signed for the same amount Holmes was gonna give him anyways.. lol🤷 🤦♂️.. he got greedy..
Detroit figured "yea you had a nice record breaking season but most of your TDs was like from the 5 yard line or less, shii we can easily find another back to to that but better!" ..
So yea that's how that situation went down.. just fyi if you ever really wondered how it went..
Love Williams and he was a huge part of the team last year. With that said, Lions wouldn't be as good with Williams as they are with Montgomery. Just being honest, why didn't Saints use Williams more this season is what I don't understand.
I agree he deserves better (Saints fan here)
@@larcelmer I think he was hurt for half the season or something but HELL even when he did play, it seem like he didn't have as big of an impact as he did here or just didn't get set up like he was here in Detroit 🤷
It's crazy he broke Barry's td record last year and followed it up with... 1 garbage time td that he wouldn't even have gotten if not for Jameis going rogue 🤷

@@armiyaKursk high knees!
Im a lions and I was at the game and I was absolutely dumbfounded when Goff took a knee with 15 on the play clock
I couldn’t believe what was happening
LOL Coach was a good sport! Thanks!
As a Lions fan, I was jumping up and down when the they drafted P. Sewel. He's an All-Pro and future H.O.F. Brad Holmes get's a lot of credit for our transformation.
its called sportsmanship. I am sick of teams burning all their timeouts in hopeless situations just wasting everyones time.
So when something unexpected *actually* happens? The team should go Oopsie and not count it?
Ask Buffalo when they played the Vikings last year and were winning by 4 points and were kneeling the clock out with only 47 seconds left., and fumbled the snap and Vikings recovered. Then the Vikings went on to win that game.
Guess the Vikings should've went Oopsie, and let the Bills win instead? :(
I was thinking the exact same thing. I was like “WHAT ARE THEY DOING?”and when Goff snapped the ball with 38 seconds left. That was just an amazing brain fart with everyone involved
Look at the score, 23-31. It's statistically improbable for the Bucs to win that. Force a 4th down field goal, assume the Lions make it and it's stystically impossible to win. Assume the Lions miss it, the Bucs then need to go downfield with 36 seconds on the clock and with no timeouts, score a TD AND convert a 2 point conversation, just to TIE the game. And then most likely lose in OT anyways. Now for what really would've happened. Bucs call a timeout forcing 4th down. What the Lions would do is snap the ball and run all the way back to their own endzone burning as much time off the clock as they can and take an intentional safety. Bucs get 2 points, Lions kick the ball off and force the Bucs to go downfield with at most 20 seconds left on the clock and zero timeouts. They're not doing that against Detroits defense. If he didn't quit on the team, he conceited the win because he knew it was absolutely pointless to even try and possibly risk injury to any his players.
Detroit vs everybody!!!
Gamesmanship. The Lions could of easily ran 3 plays to get a 1st down or kick field goal.
Cinderella continues Lions been my upset to win it all
Ok so you take a TO, 38 seconds left. They kick a field goal, 3 seconds or so runs off. You have 35 seconds left, down 11. Kickoff, another 3 second run off. 32 seconds down 11 from your own 20.
The game was over.
Imagine if it was packers lions next week
I'm glad the Lions are doing well but it sucks they couldn't keep Jamaal Williams for this run
Not really. Monty is way better and it's Jamaals own fault dude had one td this year lmaoo and it was the cheapest td of the decade
He's long gone and forgotten my boy
Listen Detroit loves Jamaal but Monty ripped off waaaaay longer runs than anything he did last szn
Jamaal thought he was worth more money than the Lions did. He made his choice to leave for money, then threw shade at the Lions afterwards. Jamaal doesn't deserve to be on this team
Actually i think the lions were offering him more money that he ended up getting. He played hard ball and held out for more. The lions gave him a deadline and he missed it. They moved on and he ended up getting less money. Again, if i remember right@FarmGuysTotallyRandomThings
I feel it was an understanding at the end of a game, instead of like the old days where a QB kneels down and the defense rushes hard and tries to hit everyone. Detroit could have kicked a FG, but they could have also run 3 running plays and got into significantly better FG position or a first down to legitimately end it. I appreciate that Bowles didn't just do something to do it, everyone knew the game was over at that point. Looking forward to what the Bucs can accomplish next season. Go Bucs!
A huge mistake. I see people saying the lions would be up by 11 and the game would be over. Ask the bills. Field goals are missed all the time in these high pressure situations. Texans kicker also missed an easy field goal to take the lead going into halftime against Baltimore. A huge oversight by the bucs.
Adding 3 to an 8pt lead is not the same pressure as adding 3 to tie or take the lead or making it a 1 Td lead..the clock,field position and point differential are all factors when a FG is attempted..although it's no guarantees with snap, hold and hit..that situation in the Lions game was nowhere close to Buffalo's situation..they needed to tie pretty late in the game.
@@keyonclark7857 can promise you every kicker in the nfl would know if they missed it there is a chance the other team could still win. That is pressure no matter how you put it. Kickers miss fgs in the season up 3 tds. The smallest thing can make a difference
I got a screenshot of this because I'm like they have a time out. What are they doing?
They didn't forget they had a timeout. The lions could end the game even with the timeout. When Bowles didn't call it, they took their knees quickly because they knew the game was "over." But the quick knees made it so that they actually could have tried to use the timeout at the end.
Tell that to these conspiracy nuts
Not true.
1st @1:33 = play, TO
2nd @1:30 = kneel
3rd @ :47 = kneel
Which means, Lions would have been forced to kick a FG or punt on 4th down with at least a few seconds left. Blocked kick, return, hail mary, anything could happen. Look up Minneapolis Miracle, or the Kick-Six, HailMurray, lots of plays that came down to the last play.
If there is only a few seconds left. Lions would’ve just threw the ball away into the end zone to run out the clock. Broncos did something similar against another appointment to end the game.
@@mysterybox9250 True, if there were only a few seconds left. But again, they could fumble the snap just like Allen did against the Vikings last year. That's why you force them to execute to the very end instead of just quitting.
Lol what are you talking about? That was 3rd down... Kneels with 38 seconds left making it 4th down. Bucs can call their final timeout then and stop the clock. Why the hell would they call a timeout BEFORE the snap?
I'm just glad the Lions made Jamelle Hill finally shut her mouth.
I was so baffled when this was happening. I had to convince myself that it was an issue with NBC's Graphics, because it made absolutely no sense to me. I was yelling at Goff through the TV "WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?"
I saw that T.O and wondered the same. Then just figured they were out & Brodcast forgot to take it off the screen
There's a few possibilities.
1. They didn't notice it.
2. They had the decency to accept defeat.
3. They knew it wouldn't happen, so accepted defeat rather than risk injuries on a hope and a prayer.
Todd Bowles may be a great defensive mind but that doesn’t automatically translate well to being a good Head Coach. He’s been highly questionable when it comes to game management and situational football throughout his entire HC career. Hell, even as a defensive coordinator… I’m still pissed about that botched defensive play against the Rams a couple years back in the playoffs that cost the Bucs the game and a potential Super Bowl appearance. Bowles should’ve never been promoted to HC after that disaster.
Reminds me if Dennis Allen. A very underrated defensive coach but overrated head coach
Bowles was cold and scared. I could tell the freezing Detroit temperatures were affecting him a lot.
@@costco_pizza True. He should’ve taken that reporter’s question regarding the cold frigid Detroit weather more seriously instead of arrogantly dismissing it like it was nothing.
@@fairwarning007 Exactly. Just goes to show you how important those reporters are. Had he listened to her he would be on a plane to SF right now.
The real reason is because I had a 1000 dollar parlay on David Montgomery rushing for 40 yards that if it would've hit would've hit for about 20 grand with every thing else included. Vegas couldn't have that. So they took the knees and TB conceded. All so the little guy can't win
-$1,000 loser LMAO
STOP GAMBLING
Got script written all over it. Especially when I see the Bucs RT lineup up in front of Aiden Hutch on a play, and run towards the DT to make sure Hutch runs free to sack the QB…there is no scenario that a tackle at any level would do that if they’re trying to win. Pee wee football wouldn’t even do that
NFL is fake. That’s why I watch it for fun. Other people act like it’s their life. I do want the Lions to win the Superbowl so it can bring more money to the city. That’s about it.
It was his assignment. Either a failed trap play or miscommunication. The offense doesn’t always just block the person in front of them.
@@afiftysixteen9584 I’m aware of those plays; however, you can’t use that excuse when it was a straight drop back pass lol
Sounds like the Michigan locker room. That kind of team spirit is very hard to beat. People who are playing for each other somehow manage to get it done. Go Lions!!!
😂😂😂 brah if baker didnt throw an interception they probably would have used it
The timeout wouldn't have mattered. The play clock is 40 seconds, so they would have ran a simple run up the middle then let the clock run out on fourth down.
I thought NBC had it wrong and they didn't have a timeout. I was yelling at Todd TAKE THE TIMEOUT and was like well damn NBC fucked this one up making me think they have a timeout....but they did have it just didn't use it. Kind of disappointed they just gave up, anything could happen.
Bowles definitely did not forget he had a time out he acnowledged this in the presser he gave a bad excuse that well they wouldve kicked the field goal
Nah bro forgot and was making an excuse.
I was wondering the same thing, I'm glad they didn't cuz you never know what can happen, been a lions fan for 40 years and it's pretty nice seeing the mentality Dan Campbell has brought here
i mean at that point the lions had over a 99% chance to win the game regardless but sure it would've been best to take the timeout and play it out. it's just so many things have to go right. they'd have to miss the field goal, then you have to drive the ball down the field and score a touchdown, get the 2 point conversion, and then win in overtime.
Remember the first game against the Bears though - the Lions had a 99% chance of losing that game but won in the final seconds.
Do lions probably win? Yeah. But lions fg kicker is under 80% from 40-49 yards in his career and he is 5/13 in his career from fgs 50+. The fg would of been like a 48 yarder. Honestly would of been a real decision to kick a fg or punt. If they missed the fg Bucs get ball already in Hail Mary range with 30 seconds left in the game. Much crazier things have happened
@@silversportsgaming9324 yeah but its just like you'd end up with like 30 seconds, no timeouts, must score touchdown, must get 2 point conversation, then have to win in overtime. that's a lot to ask for lol
@@softjones3128 35 seconds left in the game I highly doubt they can burn that amount of time off the clock.
@@Oh_deer777 I never said it was easy just said crazier things have happened.
Let's Go Lions!
I like the Lions, wanted them to win. But at the end, when the Bucs weren't calling the timeout, I was screaming at the TV, "What are you doing? Why does nobody see what's going on?" Figured maybe the graphic was wrong and they didn't actually have a timeout. Then I went to X and, sure enough, tons of people were seeing the same thing. Mindblowing. This is the NFL, how does nobody notice?
