Lions linebacker Jamie Collins signals touchdown as Falcons running back Todd Gurley tries to stop short of the end zone to control the final minutes of the clock in October 2020 in Atlanta. Gurley broke the plane for a touchdown for a 20-16 lead, and the Falcons added the two-point conversion to extend the lead to 22-16. However, the Falcons left just enough time for the Lions to come back for the game-winning touchdown and extra point as time expired. (Curtis Compton / Curtis.Compton@ajc.com)
