Throughout this scintillating stretch of football from the Detroit Lions, I keep thinking to myself, “Wow, that was really impressive. That has to be the most impressive win of the season, right?”
Well, the bar has been raised again. The NFC North leading Minnesota Vikings came into Ford Field with aspirations of locking up the division, only to be handled for the vast majority of the game. Every time the Vikings punched—and thanks to star wide receiver Justin Jefferson, they punched a lot—the Lions had an answer for them, and would go on to win the game 34-23.
