In this game, Brosmer managed to avoid any turnovers, which he gets credit for. But everything else was a mess. He completed 9 of 16 passes for 51 yards and lost 48 yards on seven sacks. The three net passing yards are the fewest by a winning team in nearly two full decades.
The first big play of the game came from the Minnesota defense, as Lions’ quarterback Jared Goff mishandled a snap deep in Detroit territory, and Andrew Van Ginkel fell on the fumble to give the Vikings’ offense the football inside the Detroit red zone late in the first quarter.
Justin Jefferson made history during the Minnesota Vikings' 23-10 win over the Detroit Lions on Thursday. Jefferson reached 8,379 career receiving yards during the contest, surpassing Pro Football Hall of Fame wideout Randy Moss for the most by any NFL player through their first six seasons.
Despite a furious comeback attempt by the Detroit Lions, the Pittsburgh Steelers recorded a 29-24 win in a wild game that literally came down to the wire.
