They hyped this as the game of the year and then somehow it was even better. A team scored 50 points and lost, and that never happened before. You could say the same about so many things that happened in this game.
They packed this place, a makeshift game put on with seven days’ notice after the game was moved from Mexico City, and they all had a small part in making it the best night of the NFL season so far. If anyone left before the final gun they had a clear drive home, a rare moment here without traffic because nobody wanted to miss a second of this one.
