Debuts highlight opening weekend
Lions 20, Bears 16 CHICAGO -- Finally, a road win for the Detroit Lions. Detroit ended its NFL-record 24-game streak of futility away from home Sunday, rallying to beat the mistake-prone Chicago Bears 20-16 in Lovie Smith's debut as head coach. Bracy Walker, who earlier returned a blocked field goal 92 yards for a third-quarter touchdown, intercepted a third-down pass in the end zone by Rex Grossman with 18 seconds to go, preserving the win.
