On Detroit's very first play from scrimmage, the ball came loose after Matthew Stafford completed a pass to Anquan Boldin. Officials ruled Boldin down, and that call was upheld after the Jaguars challenged.
Jacksonville had not forced a turnover since Oct. 2 against Indianapolis. The Jaguars (2-8) forced one on special teams and one on defense Sunday.
That was the only offensive touchdown of the game for Detroit, which also scored on a 55-yard punt return by Roberts in the second quarter and a 39-yard interception return by Rafael Bush in the third.

"One wasn't enough, and if that's going to be the case, that's fine," Jacksonville linebacker Paul Posluszny said. "We have to find a way to continue to build off that and make it happen, so that we end up winning these types of games."
The Lions had lost only one fumble all season before Sunday, and they had forced only seven turnovers themselves. They managed three more takeaways against the Jaguars, recovering a fumble in the second quarter and adding two interceptions in the second half.
"During the course of the season, you're going to have to win a football game a lot of different ways," Detroit coach Jim Caldwell said. "It can't just be your offense. Sometimes it's going to be your defense, sometimes it's going to be your kicking game combined with it."
