Historic NFL Achievement
During their 37-24 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals, Detroit Lions running backs Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery tied an NFL record by each scoring a touchdown for the 14th time in the same game. This achievement places them among the elite NFL duos in rushing and receiving scoring.[1][2][3]
Key Game Details
Montgomery scored both a rushing touchdown and threw a 3-yard pass to tight end Brock Wright.
Gibbs contributed with a receiving touchdown, a rushing touchdown, and accumulated 54 rushing yards on 12 carries.[4][3]
The Lions built a 28-3 lead early, leveraging their running game and defense.
Cincinnati attempted a comeback in the fourth quarter, with three passing touchdowns from quarterback Jake Browning, including two to star receiver Ja’Marr Chase.
Lions linebacker Derrick Barnes sealed the game with a safety sack of Browning.[5][4]
Player Backgrounds and Significance
Montgomery, a Cincinnati native, made his first professional appearance in his hometown, contributing significantly with 65 rushing yards and a touchdown.
Barnes, from Covington, Kentucky, played a crucial role with the game-ending sack.
The duo’s record-tying performance reflects their strong chemistry and effectiveness, with Montgomery’s performance especially meaningful for his family and hometown supporters.[6][1]
Overall Impact
The Lions’ rushing duo has now scored touchdowns in 14 games together, matching the NFL record previously held by Emmitt Smith and Daryl Johnston of the Dallas Cowboys. This consistent scoring partnership has made the Lions’ offense particularly potent this season, and they are likely to set the record for the most games with multiple touchdowns by a running back duo soon.[3][1]
