Detroit rookie Jahmyr Gibbs rushed for 152 yards and a touchdown while carrying a heavier load Monday night against the Raiders, prompting teammate Penei Sewell to remark that the Lions 'finally saw the real Jahmyr.'

"It was fun and it's good knowing that your coach and teammates got that much trust in you," Gibbs said. Detroit enters its bye week with the second-best record in the NFC, and there's plenty of reason for optimism moving forward, as the Lions have the fourth-easiest remaining schedule in the NFL based on their opponents' record .
