That throw to Durham in the 4th quarter to setup the pass to Johnson, had that throw been done by Mahomes, the NFL would have exploded and social media would've went insane. But Stafford was doing that even before this game, never got any credit for the unreal arm talent he always had and that one throw by itself is all the proof you need.

[@AlexSmith-tz2lf]

NFL analysts: "300 yards is a good mark for a quarterback." Calvin: "Fine. I'll do it myself."

[@alphabuckeyelion2233]

I love how Stafford MADE SURE he was in. He didn't just quit on the play after the dive and the touchdown, he stayed up and ran around the pile and into the end zone to make sure there was absolutely NO CHANCE it wasn't a touchdown. Stafford is one of my favorite players in the NFL

[@Pomni740]

Same.

[@blunbot]

Sb champ Matthew Stafford

[@ocfilmsdotcom]

It's funny that they took so long to review the final touchdown, even though Stafford came back down and then ran to the end zone. So if it wasn't a touchdown when he extended, it was when he just walked there,, haha

[@hotbam37]

That's what I was thinking but I'm guessing the refs blew the play dead after he jumped. They are always too eager to stop the plays.

[@james_ford86]

@@hotbam37 That's exactly what happened. They blew the play dead the moment they felt he had crossed the goal-line. They do this, especially on plays involving QBs or Kickers, to protect the players. Is it annoying? Yes. But it's done in the name of safety. Since they blew it dead and ruled a TD, the extra action after that where Stafford ran off tackle to cross the goal-line a second time wouldn't have mattered. Even worse, if they had ruled he didn't cross the goal-line on the initial push on replay review, they would have assessed a 10 second run-off, even though they're the ones who stopped the play prematurely. The NFL can be mind-boggling at times. I've lost count of how many times my Lions have been screwed over by the Refs.

How can you always place the blame on Tony Romo, if his defense allows a 300 receiving receiver??? How's that Romo's fault. He gets undeserving criticism sometimes .

[@RMBII91]

This is the season I always point to as a big defense of Romo and that offense. He could play flawlessly and still lose because of the defense that year, or have to play catch up because the defense couldn't stop a thing. I was glad to be able to see such a defensive travesty every week though, because now their defense is a far cry from it. At the time, this Dallas defense ranked 3rd in total yards allowed and 2nd in YPG/allowed in NFL history. That year they allowed the most yards defensively (6,645), gave up the most first downs per game, tied for 31st in yards allowed per play, were 29th on 3rd down conversions allowed, and 27th in points allowed. On the flip side, the offense was 5th in scoring that year and 10th or so in total yards. Atrocious defense across the board, yet they still went 8-8. The Cowboys were 8 total points across 5 games from hypothetically going 13-3, which would have tied Denver for best record (although had Dallas won that shootout in this case, Denver would be 12-4).

Thumbs up for having this edited without commercials. Must have taken forever. Watching this reminds me how grateful I should be that my Lions nowadays don’t miss tackles like they used to. For so many years the were the worst tackling team in the league. This video reminds me why Johnson is my favorite player of all time. Unfortunately, he pulled a Barry on us and Troyes WAY too soon. Don’t blame him though. Lions never would have traded him and he didn’t want to add more and more wear and tear on his body for a non playoff team year in and year out.

The most epic gane that I ever see!!!

[@francescol9868]

I was there!

[@manbeastmorris]

This is one the best games of this decade. This comeback and the Eagles comeback was the best comebacks in the 2010's.

[@pokesmot3174]

The 27 3 comeback against Dallas in 2011 is waaaaaay better then this

[@manbeastmorris]

True but no one talks about that and that was in Dallas

[@LC-iu3nz]

Manbeast Morris actually the best comeback is super bowl 51 lol

[@romedawg2095]

If I've ever doubted those who said Stafford wasn't all that great....I probably never seen this game. Kudos to you, kudos to you.

[@ZaStacher]

Romedawg Look up "Matthew Stafford VS Browns mic'd up" I think that game is even more impressive but not that many people know about it.

[@robertblack3452]

And this why win lose or tie, I'm a lions fan until I die................................Stafford has been my favorite QB since the day we signed him. Megatron was an and still is in my book, one of greatest receivers in the game.

[@jtrain3874]

That throw from Stafford to Durham is stupid, like holy crap other side of the hash marks to the sideline😍beautiful

[@Chopski64]

Such a crazy game. I remember watching it live and I was like what? Lol. Lions tried their best to lose but pulled it out. Stafford was the man along with Calvin. Go Lions!

[@Aezetyr]

Great game, I remember watching this one on first airing. Best part? Stockton tried to give the Cowboys the game with just over a minute left in regulation. He always was a Cowboys homer.

Brandon Carr is the ultimate example of the Peter principle. Really good and versatile CB#2 but the moment you promote him to being CB#1 on a team, he can't hang

[@CPerryTravels]

I had Megatron on my fantasy team that year lol

[@rightyleftable]

Christian Perry I had both him and Dez
