The Detroit Lions are no longer winless after a come-from-behind victory over the Minnesota Vikings in Week 13 that was capped by an 11-yard touchdown pass from Jared Goff to Amon-Ra St. Brown as time expired.

Love to see it @JaredGoff16 to @amonra_stbrown for the game-winner!

The Lions led early with a 20-6 lead at halftime, but the Vikings slowly chipped away in the second half. Detroit turned the ball over twice in the final nine minutes of the game, setting up Minnesota for a 3-yard touchdown pass from Kirk Cousins to Justin Jefferson to take a 27-23 lead with just under two minutes left.

Goff, 27, orchestrated a 14-play, 75-yard touchdown drive in the final moments of the game and found St. Brown for the game-winner.

Detroit improved to 1-10-1 with the win and the Vikings fell to 5-7.
