The first one in the 2nd half would have been a 45-yard field goal and should be nearly automatic in good conditions. At that point, Detroit was dominating and up by 14. They would have then been back to a 17-point lead with about 6 minutes left in the 3rd quarter. I'm sure 49er fans and the team were delighted to have Campbell go for it, because it seemed their only hope at the time to keep the game down to two scores. They were emotionally dead at that point. The fans and team were invigorated after that 4th down failure.
The second was 4th and 3 at the 30, so a 47-yard field goal.
