Hear ye, brave warriors of Ford Field: in the first month on the seventh day, 2024, the Lions stood firm against the Viking horde and claimed victory, 30–20.
Jared Goff led the charge, finding Sam LaPorta for a 2-yard touchdown to open the battle, and Jahmyr Gibbs thundered in another. Later, David Montgomery sealed the deal with a 1-yard run, smashing through until he could go no further.
The Lions’ shields were strong: they picked off Nick Mullens, held the Vikings’ offense at bay, and in doing so, secured their 12th win of the season — a feat matched only once before in franchise lore.
