Live updates: Lions hang on against Bears, 27-24

The Lions allowed the Bears to drive into field range with the clock winding down, but Connor Barth's kick went wide right with three seconds remaining and the Lions held on to beat the Bears 27-24.

Those final minutes are a perfect example of just how thankful Lions fans should be for Matt Prater, who hit a 52-yard field goal to win the game despite struggling from 45 yards in warmups due to the windy conditions.

The Final Drive: The Bears started at their own 17. The Lions had good coverage downfield on first down, forcing Mitch Trubisky to throw the ball away.
