The Detroit Lions' long-suffering fan-base is flying high in 2024, with Dan Campbell's squad entering Week 11 at an NFC-best 8-1 following last Sunday's 26-23 comeback win at the Houston Texans. The Detroit faithful showed up in droves for the prime-time thriller at NRG Stadium.
Images from media and fans inside Houston's home confines pregame and during the contest showed a large influx of Lions faithful inside NRG Stadium. And the wave of Detroit supporters didn't just impact the aesthetics on the field. Instead, it seems as though Detroit fans were loud enough to alter an element of Houston's offensive gameplan.
