Lions now 10-0 when Gibbs and Montgomery both score TDs

When Jahmyr Gibbs scores, good things usually happen for the Detroit Lions. When David Montgomery scores, good things usually happen for the Lions.

But when they both score? That almost guarantees a win for the Lions. Sonic and Knuckles, as they are now affectionately known as, have each scored a touchdown in the same game ten times. Detroit has won all ten games.

Montgomery, who rushed eight times for 37 yards and a score before leaving with an injury, knows that there are still bigger goals ahead of them, saying they want “the whole cookie”, the cookie being a Super Bowl win.

When asked why it’s a big cookie, Montgomery said “It’s so much sweeter.”

Monty and Gibbs look to continue their roll on Thanksgiving against the Chicago Bears. The Lions moved to 10-1 with their 24-6 win over the Indianapolis Colts.
