Through the Lions' Eyes: Jahmyr Gibbs
The Lions trailed the Giants by 10 points in the 4th quarter before rallying late to send the game to overtime. Then they took their first lead of the game on the opening play with Jahmyr Gibbs making a house call from 69 yards out. It would prove to be the game winner.
