We don’t back down.”The NFC North-leading Lions (8-2) overcame four turnovers, including Goff's season-high three interceptions, and a 12-point deficit late in the fourth quarter to win. “That’s probably a top-five team in the league, maybe top three, and we know we should have beaten them," Fields said.
