Detroit Lions Secure Fourth Consecutive Win Over Bengals with Strong Defensive Performance

The Detroit Lions secured their fourth consecutive victory with a 37-24 win over the Cincinnati Bengals, demonstrating a strong team performance despite some offensive line struggles due to Taylor Decker's absence. Quarterback Jared Goff delivered an elite performance, completing over 75% of his passes and throwing three touchdowns, maintaining his league-leading completion rate and touchdown count. Running backs David Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs combined for 119 rushing yards and multiple touchdowns, including Montgomery's emotional two-touchdown game in his hometown. Defensively, the Lions excelled in the first three quarters, with linebacker Jack Campbell and edge rusher Aidan Hutchinson leading a dominating effort that earned top Pro Football Focus grades, despite some fourth-quarter pressure from Bengals quarterback Jake Browning. The receiving corps, led by Amon-Ra St. Brown and rookie Isaac TeSlaa, contributed significantly with multiple touchdowns and key receptions. Overall, the Lions' balanced offense and stout defense have solidified their impressive start to the 2025 NFL season.
