The Detroit Lions got off to a terrible start in the Week 7 matchup with the Vikings in Minnesota.
The Lions offense was rough on the first three drives, failing to pick up a single first down. Meanwhile, an easily-stopped fake punt on Detroit’s opening series set up Minnesota for an easy rushing touchdown. Minnesota tacked on a 57-yard field goal to quickly seize a 10-0 lead.
To add injury to insult, running back David Montgomery limped off the field with considerable assistance after being tackled on a 3rd-and-short, where he was snuffed under the pile. The team quickly ruled Montgomery’s return as questionable with a knee injury.
UPDATE: Montgomery returned to the game after sitting out a series.
