Detroit beats Los Angeles 26-20 in overtime thriller

David Montgomery's 1-yard touchdown run in overtime helped the Detroit Lions to a home win over the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday night. Montgomery finished the game with 91 yards, complementing 40 yards and a touchdown from his backfield partner Jahmyr Gibbs.

The Lions are 1-0 while the Rams are down 0-1.

Detroit led for most of the game thanks to Gibbs' run, a 52-yard touchdown pass from receiver Jameson Williams and two field goals from Jake Bates, a rookie kicker making his NFL debut. Bates converted a crucial 32-yard pass with 17 seconds left to send his team into overtime.
