Yeah, because Jerome Bettis fumbling on the goal line is completely unheard of.
Likely, no. But anything can happen on one play. Cincinnati went 4-and-out from the 3 in Super Bowl XVI and ended up being the difference in the game. How many people automatically put 6 points on the board when it was 1st down?
Goal line stops like this are really not all that rare. Of course, there's a huge probability a team can gain one inch, but there's also a decent enough chance that the defense gets a good push and comes up with a stop.
