Detroit — The Philadelphia Eagles limped into Ford Field losers of five of their past six games and looked to be the wounded prey the winless Detroit Lions needed to get that first taste of victory.
Instead, for the second time in three weeks, the Lions were embarrassed on their home turf as the Eagles scored the game's first 41 points and coasted to a 44-6 victory.
The dismantling was as thorough as it was embarrassing. The Lions couldn't sustain drives on offense, couldn't stop the Eagles on defense and committed dumb penalties on both sides of the ball.
