INGLEWOOD, Calif.—Dan Campbell wanted to make sure his team had the ball until the last second, even if it meant passing up a chance to take the lead.
With 1:47 remaining and the score tied at 38–all against the Chargers on Sunday, the Detroit Lions coach went for it on fourth-and-2 from the Los Angeles 26-yard line. A field goal would have given Justin Herbert and the Chargers a chance to win or send the game to overtime.
