The Lions entered their Week 7 game against the Ravens as winners in five of their last six games for the first time since 2011 and riding a four-game winning streak.
However, when Detroit (5–2) took the field on Sunday afternoon at M&T Bank Stadium, the Lions were out of sync and had no answer for Lamar Jackson and a Ravens offensive unit that generated 503 yards of offense in Baltimore’s 38–6 route against Detroit.

Mike Gesicki and Mac Jones first stun the Bills, then stun everyone with the Griddy
The “unseasoned Griddy” is back.
Last season, tight end Mike Gesicki’s griddy was a major point of discussion. During the Miami Dolphins’ Week 2 win over the Baltimore Ravens last year Gesicki dropped his debut Griddy on all of us, drawing comparisons to the Roadrunner in the process. The tight end was immediately roasted online, and apparently at home, as Gesicki admitted in the wake of his debut that he had to promise his wife that his Griddy days were over.
Sunday’s game between the Colts and Browns came down to the wire.
Late in the fourth quarter, Indianapolis was holding on to a 38–33 lead, but Cleveland had the ball and was driving for a potential game-winning touchdown.
With 47 seconds left on the clock, it looked like the Colts had sealed the game with a fumble recovery, but a defensive penalty negated the turnover and gave the Browns first-and-goal from eight yards out.
On the very next play, Cleveland quarterback PJ Walker threw up a prayer toward Donovan Peoples-Jones in the end zone.

The Raiders’ 30-12 loss on Sunday to a Bears team with undrafted rookie quarterback Tyson Bagent under center ranks as arguably the worst result of the Josh McDaniels era. Not surprisingly, fans went from being frustrated with the head coach to calling for his job following the loss, which moved Las Vegas to 3-4 on the season.
McDaniels opted to start Brian Hoyer at quarterback in place of the injured Jimmy Garoppolo, doing so over rookie Aidan O’Connell, which already had fans frustrated.
The Lions took a big step back against the Ravens on Sunday.
Mac Jones found Mike Gesicki for a 1-yard TD in the final seconds of Sunday’s game to cap an upset win over the Bills and deliver a milestone win for Bill Belichick.
