Ten plays later, Harrison Mevis kicked a 42-yard field goal to finish it.<\/p>\n
Their only concern for next week is Stafford\u2019s sprained finger, which may have contributed to a performance that was below his standard, as he went 20 for 42 with no touchdowns.<\/p>\n
\u201cI could be better, but, you know, playoff football is about winning the football game,\u201d Stafford said. \u201cPlayed great, threw for a bunch of yards last year in the snow and we lost. That … sucks. … So happy to have played a little worse today and going home with the win.\u201d<\/p>\n
It was Stafford\u2019s second game-winning, final-gasp drive in two playoff games. Does anybody not believe he can roll off two more?<\/p>\n
\u201cHelluva deal right there,\u201d McVay concluded. \u201cIt was like, all right, the football gods are smiling on us.\u201d<\/p>\n
Helluva deal, helluva team, and the gods are just getting started.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Now, do you believe? Finally, do you understand?
