Did the Detroit Lions get away with one on their 4th-down conversion late in their 34-31 win over the Green Bay Packers at Ford Field in Detroit, Mich., on Thursday night? That’s what some people think, but they are incorrect.

The Lions made the bold call to go for it on 4th-and-inches from the Green Bay 21 with 43 seconds left. Jared Goff handed the ball off to David Montgomery, who rushed 7 yards to convert a first down and set up the winning field goal. But before Goff handed the ball off to Montgomery, the Lions quarterback had fallen down, and his left knee hit the ground. That left some fans wondering why Goff wasn’t ruled down.
