The Detroit Lions have won five of six games since starting the season 1-6 and head into next week’s matchup with the New York Jets brimming with confidence just like their coach.
Along with Moore’s fake punt, he signed off onon third-and-7 at the two-minute warning, leading 31-23. Sewell made a twisting catch for a 9-yard gain and dove past the first down marker to keep the clock running and help clinch the Lions’ victory.
The Lions jumped to an early 7-0 lead on Goff’s 41-yard touchdown pass to Williams on a broken coverage and never trailed. Williams, in his second game back from the torn ACL he suffered in his final college game in January, celebrated excitedly on the Lions sideline and handed the ball to his father for preservation.
Kirk Cousins finished 31 of 41 passing for 425 yards for the Vikings, who fell to 10-3. Justin Jefferson had 11 catches for 223 yards after being held to a career-low 14 yards on three catches against the Lions in September.
