DETROIT -- Led by quarterback Jared Goff, the Detroit Lions nabbed their first home playoff win since 1991 with a 24-23 win over the Los Angeles Rams at Ford Field.

Sunday's wild-card round win came at the expense of former Lions (now Rams) QB Matthew Stafford in his return to Detroit. Both teams came out firing in the first half with the Lions carrying a 21-17 lead into halftime.

The Lions entered the playoffs as the No. 3 seed and will play the winner of the "Monday Night Football" matchup between the Philadelphia Eagles and Tampa Bay Buccaneers (8:15 p.m. ET, ABC/ESPN/ESPN+) in the divisional round next weekend.
