49ers come from 17 points to down to lead Lions in bid to reach Super Bowl
Well, Dan Campbell has got the Lions here by gambling and going for it on fourth downs, but this fourth and three didn’t come off when Detroit could have had a kick at a makeable field goal to tie the game.
Instead, the Niners take over in great field position and looking to close this game out now by going and scoring a touchdown.
Was that a risk too far for Campbell.
Jared Goff hangs it out there for Jameson Williams again using the speedster’s pace, but he can’t gather this one as the ball drops between his hands right on the goal line.
That was a touchdown if he could have caught that ball.

Jameson Williams bobbles a catch as he flies across the field, but he just about managers to gather the ball again under extreme pressure as it looks like the 49ers picked it off at first.
But no, Detroit keep the ball and keep the drive going.
Jake Moody makes no mistake this time as San Francisco make it 20 unanswered points and with just under 10 minutes left in the game they finally have their first lead of the match.
Brocky Purdy hasn’t been sacked tonight until now – as he’s taken down twice on consecutive plays! Detroit are lucky to get away without a flag for roughing on the second hit but it’s some welcome relief for the Lions as San Francisco will have to try the field goal.
Brock Purdy takes off again and again he’s not sliding but taking the contract head-on as everything gets laid on the line in the play-offs.
George Kittle takes just his second catch of the night 28 yards to rumble down to the Detroit 27 – the tight end’s been in blocking mode mostly tonight but is a huge threat in the receiving game if cut loose.
“It just shows how fast things can change in the NFL. The value of every possession is critical and none more so than now in the fourth quarter.
“Each team has to take advantage of possessing the ball and maximise every opportunity.”
