Lions win, make Skip Bayless eat his premature Twitter words image

Good for Matthew Stafford and the Detroit Lions. They rallied on Sunday with a touchdown drive in the game's final minute to beat the Redskins, 20-17. They're 4-3, alive and well in the NFC North.

They also were able to shut up premature tweeter Skip Bayless.

The Fox Sports 1 analyst tweeted late in Sunday's game his praise for Kirk Cousins and the Redskins, who indeed rallied from a 13-3 fourth-quarter deficit to take a 17-13 lead. "Skins win," Bayless included in his tweet.

Whoops.

The Lions, evidently possessing better social media skills, politely corrected Bayless.

Don't worry. Bayless is never totally wrong. He wants you to keep in mind he predicted a Washington loss. That matters!

Bayless moved on and instead attacked the formerly undefeated Vikings. He did so while simultaneously attacking the team that beat the Vikings on Sunday, the Eagles. Impressive.
