MINNEAPOLIS -- Jared Goff wasn't even born the last time the Detroit Lions clinched a division title.
However, on Sunday, the veteran quarterback -- born in 1994 -- was at the forefront of the Lions celebrating their first division championship since 1993.
With the 30-24 win over the Minnesota Vikings, Detroit clinched its first division title in three decades, ending the NFL's second-longest active drought without a division title next to the Cleveland Browns (1989).
Goff passed for 257 yards and a touchdown and rookie Jahmyr Gibbs rushed for 80 yards and two touchdowns, but it was Ifeatu Melifonwu's game-sealing interception of a Nick Mullens pass at the Lions' 5-yard line with 58 seconds remaining with the Vikings driving for the potential go-ahead score that sealed the victory.
