...On a holistic level, one TD instead of a FG would have won the game for the Lions. On a game situation level, the 1st down instead of 4th down on the first hands-to-the-face penalty may not have been utterly decisive, but it was probably pretty much so. Also, the no-call on a very easy-to-call PI that would have significantly increased the Lions' chance of scoring at least 3 more points was quite weighty in the game situation, I believe.
