After conceding the lead to the Commanders and looking at a 10-7 deficit, the Lions quickly recovered and drove right back down the field to retake the lead at 14-10. The touchdown came on an incredible one-handed catch by tight end Sam LaPorta in the back of the end zone.
The score capped off a drive that went 70 yards in seven plays and took three minutes and 11 seconds off the clock. The catch was LaPorta’s third of the night to this point and he has 22 total receiving yards.
Quarterback Jared Goff is starting to get into a groove, now at 8-for-10 passing for 120 yards and a quarterback rating of 150.0.
