DETROIT—The comeback Lions keep winning — the hard way. Matt Prater kicked a 40-yard field goal as time expired after Darius Slay returned an interception 13 yards with 30 seconds left, lifting Detroit to a 16-13 Thanksgiving day win over the Minnesota Vikings and sole possession of first place in the NFC North. “I felt pretty confident we were going to close the game out at the end,” Prater said. The 7-4 Lions have won six of seven, including twice against Minnesota this month, despite trailing in the fourth quarter of every game this season. They extended their NFL season-opening record of games decided by seven points or fewer to 11.
