DETROIT -- Ameer Abdullah got his second rushing touchdown in as many weeks. Golden Tate took a screen and turned it into a game-clinching touchdown. The two plays -- coming at different points in the Detroit Lions' win over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday -- meant a lot.
Abdullah’s touchdown tied the game at 10-10 in the second quarter after Detroit got off to a horrific start. Tate’s score in the fourth quarter gave the Lions a two-score lead.
Both of them transpired, though, because of strong blocking.
With the Lions up, 31-24, with 4:36 remaining, Matthew Stafford lined up in shotgun with Theo Riddick at his left.
