Lions hope to build momentum from first win

Allen Park — During their 0-5 start, Lions players mentioned their confusion about their inability to win a game, typically pointing to the talent in the locker room.

Now, after beating the Bears for their first victory, the Lions have to find a way to carry something positive into next week — and beyond.

“It’s awesome,” wide receiver Lance Moore said after the victory. “I think we got too good of a team to not win ballgames. Obviously, it was kind of ugly. We had to do it in overtime. We put our defense in tough situations a couple times, but a great team win, something to build from and hopefully we will continue to play well.
