After the turnover, the Rams drove to the Lions’ 6, but had to settle for a 29-yard field by Greg Zuerlein after Nick Fairley sacked QB Sam Bradford on third down and the Lions kept the lead, 7-6.
The Lions defense has been pretty good, not allowing big plays or the Rams receivers to get behind them. The run defense has been good, considering Steven Jackson is a load to bring down. On one play, Ndamukong Suh fought off his block and brought down Jackson with one hand, for a 1-yard gain.
With 2:35 left in the half, the Lions have an opportunity to tack on another score — if they can stay away from turnovers.
