Tate, Quin, & Fuller help Lions rally against Saints, 24-23
Thanks in part to Glover Quin's interception late in the 4th quarter that gave the Lions great field position, Matthew Stafford found Corey Fuller for the winning touchdown moments later to cap off a dramatic comeback in Detroit's 24-23 victory over the New Orleans Saints.
The Lions trailed 23-10 before Stafford threw two scoring passes in the final 3:38 -- with Quin's interception coming between them. The Saints were in control late in the 4th quarter when Stafford found Golden Tate for a 73-yard catch-and-run that made it 23-17.
Detroit won for the second straight week without their star wide receiver Calvin Johnson, who is recovering from an ankle injury. Next Sunday, the Lions travel to the United Kingdom to face the Atlanta Falcons in London, England. Game time is set for 1 pm.
