The Detroit Lions outlasted the Los Angeles Chargers in a shootout with both teams going back and forth late in the game only for Riley Patterson to deliver a game-winning 41-yard field goal in the dying seconds to move Detroit to 7-2 on the year.

Offensive spotlight: The Lions offense was clicking in all aspects of the game this week with Jared Goff throwing for 333 yards and two touchdowns while the run game did significant damage early in the game. David Montgomery returned to the lineup after missing two games with a rib injury and while his running mate Jahmyr Gibbs took over the goalline work, he found ways to be productive by ripping off a 75-yard touchdown run in this one. Montgomery totaled 116 rushing yards on 12 carries on the day. Amon-Ra St. Brown was the primary receiving weapon for Goff, as usual, leading the team with 156 yards on eight receptions.

Quentin Johnston scored his first NFL touchdown at a crucial moment of this game with the Chargers down by a touchdown and passing on fourth-and-one from the one-yard line. Johnston also drew a big defensive pass interference penalty on fourth down to keep that that same drive alive. The rookie first-round pick finished the day with four catches for 34 yards to go along with his score.
