First Quarter


The opening quarter set the tone for the Lions as quarterback Jared Goff showcased his precision. Completing 23 out of 28 passes for a total of 334 yards and five touchdowns, Goff was instrumental in establishing an early lead. His longest pass spanned an impressive 64 yards, contributing significantly to Detroit's offensive momentum.


Second Quarter


In the second quarter, Amon-Ra St. Brown emerged as a key target for Goff. St. Brown caught nine passes for a total of 115 yards and three touchdowns. His ability to secure first downs on seven occasions kept the chains moving efficiently for Detroit.


Third Quarter


Defensively, Brian Branch made his presence felt with six tackles and one sack during this period. The defensive line applied consistent pressure on Da Bears' offense, resulting in four sacks overall and forcing three three-and-outs throughout the game.


Fourth Quarter


As the game progressed into its final stages, running back Jahmyr Gibbs added another dimension to Detroit's attack with his rushing prowess—accumulating 94 yards on just twelve carries and scoring one touchdown. Meanwhile, Kerby Joseph contributed defensively by intercepting one pass from Chicago’s quarterback.


For Da Bears, despite their efforts led by their own offensive plays that managed to score three touchdowns throughout different quarters of playtime; it was not enough against such formidable opposition from The Lions who controlled both sides effectively across all four quarters played today here at home ground advantage inside dome stadium setting up perfect conditions favorably towards them winning comfortably without any major setbacks encountered along way towards achieving desired outcome successfully achieved ultimately leading them victorious once again after previous loss suffered earlier season opener match-up faced previously before now having turned tables around completely opposite direction altogether positively instead this time round much better result obtained overall indeed!
