The Detroit Lions survived another dramatic overtime battle, and Amon-Ra St. Brown believes these moments have become an annual occurrence.
St. Brown explained that the Lions approach these situations with the belief that they have become part of their season, even though he hopes Sunday’s thriller will be their last overtime game this year.
"I feel like we have one of these a year. We had one in '24 vs the Rams Sunday Night Football here. We had one last year vs the Giants here, and then we had this one this year. So hopefully it's our last overtime game of the year, but I feel like we go in every year and that was one of them."
St. Brown noted that the game followed a familiar pattern, with both teams trading momentum throughout before the Lions ultimately made the decisive play:
"They came out strong. Feel like it was back and forth throughout all game. The defense got on the heater there. We turned some points. They started coming back scoring-scoring, and it was just back and forth, and we were able to make the last play."
The receiver acknowledged how both teams traded momentum throughout the contest. Detroit eventually delivered when it mattered most, securing another memorable overtime victory.
