For the first time since Thanksgiving of 2013, the Detroit Lions have a 100-yard rusher. Kerryon Johnson topped 100 yards against the New England Patriots on Sunday night.
That’s 101 yards for Kerryon Johnson. Lions haven’t had 100-yard rusher since Reggie Bush in 2013. #NEvsDET

That was 70 games ago.
Such a game is sure to bring out some interesting reactions on Twitter. We were not disappointed with the feedback here.
LET IT GO, THE STREAK IS DEAD! #OnePride
Kerryon Johnson is the first #Lions RB to rush for 100 yards in a game since Reggie Bush on Thanksgiving of 2013, the same month Disney's 'Frozen' hit theaters.

Johnson is only three games into his NFL career. But his performance on Sunday clearly won the people of Detroit over.
