David Montgomery was a key factor in the Detroit Lions‘ recent 38-30 victory over the Ravens, rushing for 151 yards with an average of 12.6 yards per carry and scoring two touchdowns. This marked an on-the-road performance not seen since the days of Barry Sanders.

The last time Sanders achieved a similar feat was in 1997, as the Detroit Lions’ X account highlighted. Montgomery is now on the same level as the legendary Lions player, who set a host of records with the franchise that were once considered nearly impossible to break.

Beyond that, the yards and overall numbers Montgomery posted against the Ravens were a first since 2002 in any type of game. The last player to do so was James Stewart.
