Vikings 19, Lions 17 – Vikings survive Lions rally 19-17 on Joseph FG at final gun

Greg Joseph made a 54-yard field goal as time expired to give the Minnesota Vikings a 19-17 victory over the winless Lions. Detroit scored the go-ahead 2-point conversion try with 37 seconds left. Joseph made four field goals as the Vikings casually played the field position game until the extra-safe strategy nearly cost them. Alexander Mattison fumbled on a third-and-7 run from the Minnesota 21 right after the 2-minute warning with Detroit out of timeouts. The Lions took the lead on a TD and Campbell's gamble.

Bears 20, Raiders 9 – Fields throws 1st TD pass, Bears' defense dominates in Vegas

Justin Fields threw his first career touchdown pass, and the Chicago Bears’ defense largely shut down the Las Vegas Raiders’ high-powered offense in a 20-9 victory. Damien Williams rushed for a touchdown in the Las Vegas debut for the Bears. Derek Carr passed for 206 yards and Josh Jacobs rushed for a late touchdown in the second straight loss for the Raiders. The Bears’ 32nd-ranked offense managed just 252 yards, but Chicago’s defense allowed just three points in the first 50 minutes and held Vegas to 259 yards. Derek Carr passed for 206 yards for the Raiders.

NFL – Lions' Campbell can't hide tears for latest last-second loss

The emotion came spilling out of Detroit coach Dan Campbell after another crushing loss. Campbell successfully called for a 2-point conversion with 37 seconds left. That gave the Lions a one-point lead. The Vikings then moved in position for the winning field goal on the final play for a 19-17 victory. Campbell held back tears in his postgame news conference as he discussed the disappointment of defeat. The winless Lions lost to Baltimore by an identical score two weeks ago. Justin Tucker made an NFL-record 66-yard field goal as time expired to give the Ravens the win.

White Sox 12, Astros 6 – García, Grandal shine as White Sox beat Astros 12-6 in ALDS

Leury García and Yasmani Grandal homered, and Grandal’s borderline baserunning helped the Chicago White Sox top the Houston Astros 12-6 to stay alive in their AL Division Series. Backed by a boisterous crowd of 40,288, the AL Central champions erased a 5-1 deficit in the franchise’s first home playoff game in 13 years. Tim Anderson collected three more hits, and Ryan Tepera started a stellar finish for Chicago’s bullpen after Dylan Cease and Michael Kopech struggled. Houston was hoping to sweep its way into its fifth consecutive appearance in the AL Championship Series. Game 4 of the best-of-five series is Monday afternoon.
