It did, with Goff throwing a short pass to St. Brown, who then shoveled the ball to Jahmhr Gibbs, who ran the final 20 yards for a touchdown. That gave the Lions a 20-7 lead, and they would need all of it to hold on for a hard-fought 20-13 win on Sunday against the Cardinals.

In the post-Same Ol' Lions era, Detroit turned a near-crucial mistake into the winning score in Sunday's 20-13 victory over the Arizona Cardinals.

Hook and ladders are typically reserved for the last play of a game when teams are desperate. The Lions had other ideas Sunday. They decided to dig into their bag of tricks and make the call to go for a hook and ladder late in the first half.
