Result:
WIN

Detroit has continued its preseason success by winning the first two games this year and the Lions have won seven of their last 10 preseason games since 2015. Matthew Stafford was 8-of-10 for 84 yards and a touchdown for the Lions in their 16-6 win over the Jets on Saturday and their defense held New York to just two first-half first downs. New England is searching for its first win, and the Super Bowl champs have allowed 58 points their first two games, including a 27-23 loss at Houston last week. Tom Brady sat out the first game, but played two series against the Texans and went six of nine for 67 yards. Jimmy Garappolo was 15-of-23 with one interception for 145 yards and Jacoby Brissett was 5-of-10 for 36 yards. Detroit backup quarterback Jake Rudock was 8-of-13 for 84 yards and Brad Kaaya went four of seven for 38 yards. The Lions blew a chance to win the NFC North last year when they lost their final three regular season games and they have motivation to keep their fans excited at home on Friday. Take the points on the Lions.
