Detroit's Epic Comeback Shocks The Cowboys As Dallas Melts Down

A historic day from Megatron. Players fighting on the sidelines. A quarterback fake for the ages. This game had it all.


On the heels of a history-making day by his otherworldly receiver, Calvin Johnson, Detroit quarterback Matthew Stafford engineered a ridiculous last-minute comeback to stun the Dallas Cowboys, 31-30. Here's how it went down.

After a Dan Bailey field goal, the Lions got the ball with no timeouts, 1:02 on the clock, and 80 yards to go for the touchdown and a win. Clearly, it would be up to Johnson (12 catches, 290 yards at that point) and Stafford to make it happen.

Also worth noting that Stafford had endured something of an up-and-down game. This attempted "tackle" on an interception he threw was most definitely the low point.

And yes, Dallas had a 99% win probability with less than two minutes to play.
