Bears drop seesaw heartbreaker to Lions
Sunday's heart-pounding seesaw game at Ford Field featured amazing comebacks by both teams and more drama than an entire season of "Homeland." But it all basically boiled down to the Lions making one more play than the Bears.DETROIT –
Lions star receiver Calvin Johnson leaped high over Bears rookie safety Harold Jones-Quartey to haul in a 57-yard pass from Matthew Stafford at the Chicago 6 late in overtime, setting up Matt Prater's game-winning 27-yard field goal.
The short kick gave the Lions a 37-34 victory, snapping the Bears' two-game winning streak and sending them into their bye week with a 2-4 record.
