In case you decided to spend three hours on a Monday night doing something productive, and not watching the Baltimore Ravens and Cleveland Browns on Monday Night Football, you missed a great finish.
With the game tied at 27, Browns kicker Travis Coons lined up for a game-winning 51-yard field goal attempt. But in the perfect Browns way, the kick was blocked by Ravens defensive lineman Brent Urban, picked up by safety Will Hill and returned for a game-ending touchdown.
While many people were trying to get over the shock of what they just witnessed, Ravens beat writer Luke Jones was getting requests for future lottery numbers from fans as he predicted exactly how the game would unfold prior to it happening.
I’m calling it now. #Ravens block the field goal and return it for the game-winning touchdown. No one wants to win.

To be fair, he was half-heartedly joking about it as he was making fun of both teams for their mistakes late in the game. This was his tweet prior to predicting how the game would end:
“We don’t want to win, you take it!” “No, we really insist!” “Alrighty then.”

It’s still pretty amazing that it all came true, even if both teams are the definition of terrible.
