The Lions’ late comeback fell short, as they suffered a 48-42 loss to the Bills. Buffalo shredded the injury-riddled Detroit defense for 559 yards of total offense. After a slow start, the Lions’ offense match the pace, amassing 521 yards – 494 from the passing of Jared Goff. Goff threw five touchdown passes. Detroit found the end zone three times in the fourth quarter, but the final score came with just 12 seconds remaining.
