Ever wonder what an NFL quarterback says during a desperate final drive to win a football game? Fortunately, Matt Stafford for mic'ed during the Lions final drive Sunday. We can now say with great certainty that what NFL quarterbacks say during desperate final drives to win football games is "clock it" over and over again.
Although, you'll notice as the Lions are lining up for the final play that Stafford is only shouting "clock, clock, clock." Instead of "clock it, clock it, clock it." One wonders if that was the cue to his line that he intended to fake the spike and try a QB sneak. They wouldn't tell us even if that was the case, so we'll just have to guess.
