Top photos from the Lions win over the Bears on Thanksgiving

[DSF]

For the first time in too long, the Detroit Lions made it a truly happy Thanksgiving for fans with a win in the franchise’s showcase game. The Lions held off the Chicago Bears, 23-20, snapping a seven-year losing streak on turkey day.

From a dominant first half that saw the Lions shut out the Bears, to a well-received halftime show by Shaboozey, and then a nail-biting second half where the outcome wasn’t decided until the final play, this was a memorable Detroit win over Chicago.

Here are some of the best pictures from the professional photographers inside Ford Field from the Week 13 Lions win.
