Then, the FS1 analyst began explaining the mechanics of the play. Lions quarterback Jared Goff and running back Jahmyr Gibbs both faked a fumble on the hand off, causing the Bears\u2019 linebackers to step up and allow Lions tight end Sam LaPorta to slip out wide open into the end zone.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow the reason you do this is because linebackers, their eyes are always in the backfield. So when they see the quarterback fall down and the running back fall down, their natural instinct is, \u2018Wait. See ball, go get ball.\u2019 We think there\u2019s going to be a fumble. Here\u2019s the problem, the linebackers have to guard No. 87 (LaPorta) on this play.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In a separate video, Acho points out that the Lions\u2019 offensive line was coached to yell \u201cfumble\u201d on the play. Listen below:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">I\u2019ve turned the volume up to 500% and looped the clip so you can hear the O line yell, \u201cfumble\u201d in unison.
