Game Notes

Lions hang on for a 24-17 win over the Oilers.

Detroit breaks up Steve McNair's pass into the end zone on the final play to preserve the victory. McNair had rallied Houston in the 4th quarter, drawing the Oilers within a score on his 1st NFL TD pass, a 39-yarder to Chris Sanders.

Detroit built a 24-10 lead with the help of Houston mistakes, and 2 TD passes by Scott Mitchell, who sets the franchise record with his 27th and 28th of the season. Barry Sanders rushes for 54 yards and 1 TD, becoming the 10th player to rush for 10,000 yards in NFL history.
