Redskins: Studs and duds from the team’s Week 12 win over Lions

The Redskins were able to emerge victoriously for the second time this season against the Detroit Lions in Week 12. Playing at home, the team won for the first time in the confines of FedEx Field since Week 7 of the 2018 season against the Dallas Cowboys.

The game wasn’t exactly a resounding win for the ‘Skins. They still didn’t play a complete 60-minute contest and let the Lions get back in despite holding a 10-point halftime lead. But for the first time this season, the team played well in crunch time. They put together a game-winning drive and saw some nice late-game play from their stars and young talent.
