Lions defense sets up TD, Lions lead 17-10u200b
After the Lions punted, and a holding penalty against San Francisco pinned the 49ers deep in their own end, the Lions defense appeared to go to work. On third-and-eight, Josh Bynes and Haloti Ngata hit 49ers quarterback Blaine Gabbert, forcing him to fumble. Tahir Whitehead recovered the fumble at the 1-yard-line and Joique Bell punched in the short touchdown run. With 8:54 to go in the first half, the Lions lead 17-14.
