Ford Field was rocking on Thursday night, with the Detroit Lions welcoming the Green Bay Packers to town for a primetime thriller. The first game of Week 14 will be a tough one to top over the rest of the weekend.
Detroit prevailed, 34-31, on a last-second field goal from first-year kicker Jake Bates. In a matchup where the lead changed hands four times after the half, the Lions drained the clock and came away with the NFC North victory.
The win clinched a playoff spot for the Lions, now 12-1 and winners of 11 games in a row. The Packers fall to 9-4, with two of those losses at the hands of Dan Campbell’s Lions.
Here are some of the top photos from Thursday’s thriller at Ford Field.
