Don’t look now, but the Detroit Lions are on a roll.
Matthew Stafford scored a fourth-quarter touchdown on a 5-yard sneak and the Lions got another big game from their much maligned defense to beat the Oakland Raiders, 18-13, at Ford Field.
The Lions (3-7) have won two straight since general manager Martin Mayhew and president Tom Lewand were fired Nov. 4 after a 1-7 start.
They play just one team with a winning record – the Green Bay Packers in two weeks – the rest of the season.
Stafford, who led a late touchdown drive as the Lions beat the Packers, 18-16, at Lambeau Field last week, led his 19th comeback win Sunday.
