PLAYER OF THE GAME

Lions Center Frank Ragnow may have allowed one sack, but receiving a positive rating for a significant number of his 40 run-blocking snaps – pending final review – is an otherworldly accomplishment. Detroit relied on Jahmyr Gibbs And David Montgomery to build a possession advantage for more than 13 minutes and decide the game. Ragnow’s blocking played a large part in this.
