After a scoreless first quarter, Detroit jumped into the lead with kicker Jason Hanson getting a 26-yard field goal.  Afterwards, the Lions increased its lead with RB Kevin Jones getting a 4-yard TD run, while Hanson nailed a 52-yard field goal. In the third quarter, the Bears threatened Detroit's lead as QB Brian Griese completed a 20-yard TD pass to TE Greg Olsen for the only score of the period.  Fortuntaely, in the fourth quarter, the Lions held on to win as Hanson got a 20-yard field goal.
