The Lions turned Thanksgiving 2015 into a holiday to sleep off for Eagles fans.
The Eagles traveled to the Motor City for their second Thanksgiving game in as many seasons and entered the game with a big question at the quarterback position, but after Sam Bradford tried his best to prove during warmups that he was ready to go, the Eagles elected to have him sit one more game, giving Mark Sanchez his second straight start. The Eagles’ offense stalled, and the defense had no answers for how to slow down Calvin Johnson, resulting in a 45-14 Lions win.
