The Lions blew another double digit 4th quarter lead, but found a way to rally and pull out a win, to move to remain unbeaten at 15-0. Following a blocked field goal that was returned for a touchdown by DeShon Ellis, the Lions entered the 4th quarter with a 22-10 lead. But a pair of 4th quarter Panther touchdowns moved them in front 25-22 with 4:50 left in the game. Following a Panther missed field goal, the Lions got the ball back with just over 2 minutes left in the game. Jared Goff drove them down the field and found D'Andre Swift from 4 yards out for a touchdown, putting the Lions up 29-25 with 53 seconds left in the game. The Defense was able to hold on.

Goff finished the game going 27/35 for 324 yards and 2 touchdowns. Swift added 54 yards on 16 carries. Jameson Williams caught 7 passes for 98 yards and a touchdown.

Defensively, Alex Anzalone had 12 tackles. Aiden Hutchinson and Charles Harris had a sack apiece. There were no turnovers in the game.

Baker Mayfield was 32/47 for 328 yards and 2 touchdowns for the Panthers. The Lions held Christian McCaffrey to just 61 yards on 15 carries. Rashard Higgins had 11 receptions for 138 yards and a touchdown.

The Lions are home next week, as they will host the 4-11 Chicago Bears. The Bears are coming off a 32-17 loss on the road to the Buffalo Bills. They had won their previous two games over likely playoff teams in Green Bay and Philadelphia. Game time is 1:00 PM
