The Detroit Lions used a walk-off, game-winning touchdown on Sunday to defeat the Minnesota Vikings by a score of 29-27 at Ford Field.
But according to the good folks at FiveThirtyEight, the Lions win over the Vikings was nearly impossible.

From FiveThirtyEight:
“… you may be shocked to find out that the Vikings lost a game that’s almost impossible to lose. They’re just the second team EVER to lose as at least a 7-point favorite, while winning the turnover battle and with a quarterback whose passer rating was at least 110. And the other team, the 2013 Eagles, allowed the Chargers to go 10-for-15 on third down — the Vikings allowed the Lions to go only 2-for-11. Just a stunning loss.”
Do you believe in miracles?
