The Detroit Lions did just about everything they could to make this one interesting. They were not going to get blown out by the Los Angeles Rams without putting up one hell of a fight.
The Lions pulled out two fake punts and a surprise onside kick to try and get the offense moving against a solid Rams defense and to keep former Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford off the field. The plan worked as the Lions jumped out to a 10-0 lead.
But when Stafford was on the field, the Lions had no answer for him.
