Thanksgiving provided the first exposure of the 2022 Detroit Lions for most of the national football audience. Playing against AFC darling Buffalo, the Lions were decided underdogs despite winning three games in a row.
The Lions went toe-to-toe with one of the NFL’s top teams. They looked like they belonged. More than that, Dan Campbell’s Lions acted like they belonged. Alas, a good effort came up short with the Bills winning 28-25 on a game-ending field goal from Buffalo kicker Tyler Bass with under five seconds remaining.
