NFL Week 12 live updates: Bills beat Lions on game-winning field goal

Week 12 of the NFL season kicks off Thursday with three highly anticipated Thanksgiving Day matchups.

Kicking things off, Jared Goff and the Detroit Lions are currently playing host to Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills.

Later, it’s an NFC East showdown between the New York Giants and the Dallas Cowboys, followed by the New England Patriots facing the Minnesota Vikings on the road to close things out.

Here are the top plays from Thursday’s Thanksgiving slate!

Buffalo Bills at Detroit Lions

Setting the stage

Josh Allen gives his team a pregame speech before they take the field.

Lions on the board!

Jamaal Williams does what he does best. The Lions running back took the handoff and ran up the middle for a 2-yard touchdown to give Detroit a 7-0 lead. The touchdown run is Williams’ league-leading 13th rushing score of the season.

Picture-perfect pass

It didn’t take long for the Bills to answer right back as Allen hooked up with Isaiah McKenzie for a picture-perfect 19-yard touchdown.

The ball is loose!

The first turnover of the game came early on in the second quarter when Williams took a handoff, ran up the middle, and then fumbled. Buffalo’s Ed Oliver recovered the fumble, giving Buffalo great field position.

Is there anything Allen can’t do?

The Bills capitalized on the fumble as they put together a 10-play, 58-yard scoring drive, capped off by a TD run from Allen. He fumbled the snap on the play, then picked it up, juked a defender and ran it in for the score, giving Buffalo a 14-7 lead.

Everybody eats

Goff faked the handoff and threw a perfect pass to Amon-Ra St. Brown for a touchdown, tying the game at 14-14. Following the score, St. Brown made sure everyone on his offense ate their Thanksgiving meal.

Von Miller ruled out

Bills linebacker Von Miller suffered a knee injury late in the first half and was carted to the locker room. He was ruled out for the remainder of the game.

Have a day, Ed Oliver!

Holding onto a 17-14 lead in the third quarter, Oliver had another huge play, sacking Goff in the end zone for a safety.

Lions strike back

Goff fired a strike to D.J. Chark for a 1-yard score to put the Lions on top. Detroit added a two-point conversion to take a 22-19 lead.

Allen to Diggs for the score

Is there a better connection in the NFL than Allen and Stefon Diggs? The two hooked up for a huge 5-yard touchdown with 2:40 remaining in the game. The Bills missed the extra point, making it 25-22.

FOR. THE. WIN.

After the Lions added a field goal to tie the game, Buffalo drove down the field and Tyler Bass kicked a 45-yard field goal to win the game.
