Bills spoil Lions' Thanksgiving with field goal in final seconds, 28-25

DETROIT — In front of one of the biggest crowds to ever witness a football game at Ford Field, the Detroit Lions went toe-to-toe with a Super Bowl contender, but it was the Buffalo Bills who scored the knocked blow in the closing moments of the final round.

Reminiscent of last year's playoff game against Kansas City, Buffalo quarterback Josh Allen needed fewer than 30 seconds to get his team into field-goal range after the Lions tied the contest at 25 with a 51-yard Michael Badgley field goal.

A 36-yard pass to Stefon Diggs was the key play, setting Bills kicker Tyler Bass up to knock home the 45-yard game-winner with two seconds remaining, sending the Bills to a 28-25 victory and snapping Detroit's three-game winning streak.
