It’s the first Sunday Night Football game of the 2024 season, and there could hardly be more storylines leading up to the Rams vs. Lions game. The Lions won their first playoff game in more than three decades, 24-23, against the Rams in Detroit in January. That game marked the first time Matthew Stafford, who had spent the first 12 years of his career with the Lions, was back in Detroit as an opponent, and the Rams fell to Jared Goff, who had led them to a Super Bowl appearance in 2018.

Both offenses are expected to be explosive with two talented veteran quarterbacks, and there could be fireworks tonight at Ford Field. The game caps off the first Sunday of NFL action, which saw Miami narrowly escape Jacksonville at home and Chicago pick up a win in Caleb Williams’ first start in the early window. Week 1 concludes with the Jets visiting the 49ers on Monday Night Football.
