The Detroit Lions managed to redeem themselves after their recent loss to the Seattle Seahawks by putting on an impressive defensive performance, beating the Atlanta Falcons, 20-6.

While there are some areas that still need addressing, the Lions’ young core put in a great effort and made significant contributions to the win. Here are the Studs and Duds for the Lions in their victory over the Falcons.
