SERIES NOTES<br />
‣ ¾The Lions and Bengals met every<br />
year in the preseason from 1970-<br />
2001. The two teams have played a<br />
total of 35 preseason games, with<br />
the Bengals holding a slight edge<br />
in the series, 18-17.<br />
‣ ¾In the initial meeting of the series,<br />
the Lions jumped out to 31-0<br />
halftime lead and never looked<br />
back as they trounced the Bengals<br />
38-3 on September 27, 1970. The<br />
Detroit defense limited Cincinnati<br />
to six first downs and 140 yards on<br />
offense. RB Mel Farr led the Lions<br />
with 70 rushing yards on 13 carries.<br />
‣ ¾An eight-yard touchdown toss<br />
from QB Greg Landry to TE Charlie<br />
Sanders (now Lions’ Assistant<br />
Director of Pro Personnel) with<br />
29 seconds remaining in the game<br />
gave the Lions a 23-19 victory at<br />
Cincinnati in the 1974 matchup.<br />
‣ ¾In the Lions’ November 22, 1992<br />
game at Cincinnati, RB Barry<br />
Sanders passed RB Billy Sims to<br />
become Detroit’s all-time leading<br />
rusher. He rushed 29 times for 151<br />
yards and scored a touchdown as<br />
the Lions won 19-13.<br />
‣ ¾WR Calvin Johnson caught nine<br />
passes for 155 yards and two<br />
touchdowns in the 2013 matchup.<br />
His 155-yard outing was his 35th<br />
career 100-yard game, which set<br />
a new Lions career record for<br />
most 100-yard receiving games.<br />
Johnson broke the franchise record<br />
previously held by WR Herman<br />
Moore (34, 1991-2001) as the Lions<br />
fell 27-24 on a last-second field<br />
goal by Bengals K Mike Nugent.<br />
