#5 Best Pat Patriot game: Week 5 vs. Lions 2022
The matchup with the Detroit Lions was memorable as the Patriots brought back the uniforms for the first time in over a decade. A 29-0 dominant win also helped make the day special. The Patriots' defense shut out a high-powered Lions offense that became one of the best in the NFL by the end of the year.
Two notable items from the game are that it was the first start of Bailey Zappe’s career as he was filling in for Mac Jones and a highlight scoop and score from Kyle Dugger. The play from Dugger was memorable as Matthew Judon had a strip sack, and then Dugger scooped it up for the score.
