Stuff Happens

[Woodman]

The Lions got caught in an avalanche in the second half Sunday. What could go wrong did, and the only luck they had was bad.

While coach Dan Campbell has taken heat for his decision to go for it on two fourth downs in the second half, the Lions had the first one for a first down. Receiver Josh Reynolds dropped a perfectly placed pass on fourth-and-two from the San Francisco 28 that would have given the Lions a first down inside the 20 midway through the third quarter.

Reynolds later dropped a third-and-nine pass from Jared Goff that forced a Lions punt.

“**** happens, man,” Reynolds said Monday, via Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press. “I know what kind of player I am. Didn’t want to drop them. **** happens. I just — do I want those back? Of course, but I can’t and I just got to work this offseason and be prepared for the moment when it comes.”

He was laughing after the first one. If he catches that Detroit almost certainly wins the game. Mistakes happen. Killer mistakes happen. Laughing made it a lot worse.

Probably the largest set of chokes I've ever seen from one player in my life.
