Lions falter out of the Bye Week, fall at home to Minnesota

In one of the worst games played during the Dan Campbell era, the Detroit Lions returned from the Bye Week rusty and sloppy and couldn’t overcome numerous mistakes made in all three phases in the 27-24 home loss to the Minnesota Vikings to fall to 5-3 on the season.

With the win, the Vikings are now back at the .500 mark overall at 4-4 on the season.

The Lions will be back on the road for the next two weeks against a pair of NFC East counterparts that begins this Sunday in the Nation’s capital against the struggling and 3-6 Washington Commanders at 4:25 pm.
