DETROIT — Dan Campbell’s latest gamble did not pan out and the Detroit Lions made plays in all three phases — with some yellow flags that went their way — to bail out the aggressive coach. Jake Bates made a 22-yard field goal as time expired to give Detroit a 20-17 win over the Green […] Detroit Lions defeated the Green Bay Packers 20-17 in a last-play field goal to bail out coach Dan Campbell's risky decision. The Lions made several key plays in the game, including a 22-yard field goal from Jake Bates as time expired to secure a win. Campbell had made a reckless decision to go for it on fourth-and-1 from his 24 with under 5 minutes to play and Jahmyr Gibbs was stopped for no gain. Rookie Trey Smack missed a 35-yard goal and became the first kicker to miss two field goals from 35 yards or closer in same game since 2019. The win puts the Lions in third place in the NFC North behind Minnesota and Chicago. The Packers had their three-game winning streak stopped and dropped to last place in their division.
