The defining play of the Detroit Lions’ 38-30 victory over the Baltimore Ravens was David Montgomery’s 72-yard run late in the third quarter. Let's look at all the key elements from the romp.
Man this team is enjoyable to watch. The talent speaks for itself but the unselfish,teamwork type attitude is what sets this team apart from all other teams!
I was going to say the same thing. Those three were hauling downfield to potentially get a block or to be able to jump on a loose ball if Monty coughs it up when the defender takes a swing at it from behind. 99/100 that effort goes unnoticed by everyone except the coaches and teammates, but the one time that they are there to make one last block or recover a fumble is massive.
The best part of that run by Montgomery (tv version) was seeing him look up to use the “rear view mirror” (jumbotron) and angling away from the pursuit.

I love how all three receivers kick it into high gear to try to get downfield and get another block.

He almost rolled over his tackler without his knee making contact with the ground. Now THAT would have been a TD to see!
Genuine question: isn't 13 personnel with 1 RB and 3 TEs? I thought 3 WRs would be 11 personnel.
Yes. 11 personnel. Lack of sleep got me.
