Reggie Bush shines as Lions win opener vs. Vikings, 34-24

Running back Reggie Bush carried 21 times for 90 yards, caught four passes for 101 more and scored one momentum-shifting touchdown as the Detroit Lions defeated the Minnesota Vikings in the regular season opener, 34-24.

Quarterback Matthew Stafford threw for 357 yards and two touchdowns, running back Joique Bell scored twice on the ground, and the Lions amassed 469 yards to win their first NFC North game since 2011’s playoff run.

Next Sunday, the Lions look to carry the momentum to the desert when they face the Arizona Cardinals for a 4 pm game.
