This victory ended a 14-game road losing streak against the 49ers, dating back to 1975. Lions quarterback Jared Goff was pivotal, throwing for 303 yards and three touchdowns, all on third or fourth down, maintaining his season’s impressive record of 17 touchdowns and zero interceptions in those situations. Wide receiver Jameson Williams continued his scoring streak, adding a 3-yard rushing touchdown and a 41-yard receiving touchdown to his tally. On the other side, 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy had a standout performance, throwing for a career-high 377 yards and three touchdowns, but his night ended with an elbow injury. Rookie receiver Ricky Pearsall shone with 8 receptions for 141 yards and a touchdown. However, the 49ers’ kicker Jake Moody struggled, missing two field goals and an extra point. The game was an offensive showcase, with both teams combining for 74 points and 914 yards.
