The Detroit Lions got back to playing the kind of complementary football that helped them win 15 games last season in a dominating, 52-21, victory over the Chicago Bears at Ford Field Sunday to improve their record to 1-1.
Chicago's defense had no answers for a Lions' offense that rushed for better than 175 yards, threw for over 300 yards and finished with more than 500 total yards of offense.
Jahmyr Gibbs rushed for a 6-yard touchdown on Detroit's first possession of the game and it never slowed from there as they found the end zone seven times total in the contest. David Montgomery also had a 1-yard rushing touchdown as both Detroit running backs recorded a rushing score in the same game for the 10th time. Gibbs led Detroit's rushing attack with 94 yards on 12 carries (7.8 avg.).
