Lucky bounce into Gore's mitts!
Sports can be a peculiar thing. When partaking in fiction, like a book or movie, we adopt a "Willing Suspension of Disbelief" for enjoyment's sake. There's a similar force at work in sports: "Willing Suspension of Rationality". If you doubt this, listen to any conversation between rival team fans. You even see it among fans of the same team. Fans argue over who's the better QB or goalie, and selectively cite stats that support their views while ignoring those that don't.

That's a make-up for MacKenzie's deflection.

Aside on that Gore recovery: would that stand in the NFL, I think you're not allowed to fumble forward after that Holy Roller?

Time count, loss of down, settle for try at 3. Ugh.
