The Buffalo Bills (5-9) held on for a gritty 14-13 win over the Detroit Lions Sunday at New Era Field in a game that, by its conclusion, saw the Bills with exactly zero healthy running backs available for action.
While rookie Keith Ford (14 carries for 46 yards) and Marcus Murphy (11 carries for 35 yards) enjoyed some success against the Lions, there was one run that really made a difference in the game, and helped a current Bill avoid a dubious distinction.
Trailing 13-7 on their first possession of the second half, the Bills faced a second-and-eight situation from their own 39-yard line.
