With a performance like Saturday’s, it’s a little tough to pick out one individual performance after an impressive team game. The Detroit Lions were firing on all cylinders against the Chicago Bears, and for the first time in at least a month, the Lions played as a fully-functioning team.
But the allure of tradition compels us to pick out a few individual performances from Saturday’s game and honor them with the traditional Game Ball.
Before we get into this week’s candidates, here are the Game Ball standings after 14 weeks. Remember, first place in voting gets three points, second place gets two, and third place gets one.
