Lions-Texans preseason Game 2 reactions, studs and duds

The Detroit Lions’ preseason Game 2 started out ominously. After looking extremely outmatched in the preseason opener, the Lions picked up where they left off in the first quarter against the Houston Texans on Saturday night.

But then it all turned around quite quickly. The defense scored the first Lions touchdown of the preseason, David Fales magically turned into a very competent quarterback, and some playmakers on defense emerged.

What does it all mean, though? How concerned should fans be that it took until after the Texans starters were out for the Lions to finally get things going?
