A defensive battle in the end the Lions just had too much for Miami. Miami did a great job of containing Mel Jacobs and Greg Landry, but Detroit countered with a solid game from Dexter Bussey, but in the end it was their defense that won the game. They never gave up a big play to Miami and forced them into a lot of 3rd and long situations, Miami was only 1 of 12 on 3rd down conversions. Detroit also got a great game out of their special teams, especially return man Nolan Cromwell he racked up over 200 return yards.
