series notes
¾ detroit claimed victories in the first four
games of the series, with each being a
shutout. The Lions also won seven of
the first eight meetings.
¾ The Lions’ last tie in a regular season
game was against the eagles (23-23)
november 4, 1984, the only tie in
Silverdome history.
¾ on September 26, 2004, the eagles
visited detroit for the first time since
1984. With 135 yards, Wr roy Williams
became the first detroit rookie receiver
to gain 100 receiving yards since 2000..
¾ in the Lions’ first visit to Lincoln
Financial Field (Sept. 23, 2007), QB
Jon Kitna set a franchise record with
446 passing yards. Kitna connected
with Wr roy Williams for a 91-yard Td,
career highs for both players. With 204
receiving yards, Williams’ career high
was the then third-highest tally by a
receiver in Lions history.
¾ in the most recent meeting on oct.14,
2012, the Lions pulled off a 26-23
comeback victory against the eagles on
a K Jason hanson field goal in overtime.
The Lions’ defensive line forced eagles
QB Michael Vick into two sacks on the
opening drive of overtime, causing the
eagles to punt the ball. QB Matthew
Stafford then led his eighth-career
game-winning drive that was capped off
by hanson’s 45-yard game winning field
goal as the Lions sealed the win 26-23.
