    INGLEWOOD, Calif. – Jared Goff broke the huddle in a pass play. Then he started walking toward the line of scrimmage, and realized something was wrong.

    The play required two tight ends.

    They had just one on the field.

    With offensive coordinator Ben Johnson screaming into his headset about the playcalling gaffe, Goff quickly checked into a run play at the line of scrimmage. And David Montgomery didn’t stop running on that play until he was in the end zone 75 yards down the field.

    That’s right. A potentially huge mistake turned into the hugest touchdown run by a Lions player since 2011.
