The Detroit Lions take on the Houston Texans November 10th, 2024 at NRG Stadium at 8:20 pm
The Detroit Lions travel to Houston to face the Texans in a highly anticipated matchup at NRG Stadium. The Lions boast a strong 7-1 record, driven by an efficient offense led by Jared Goff, who has been proficient with 1,840 passing yards and 14 touchdowns. Their ground game is bolstered by the dual threat of David Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs, both of whom have been effective in the run game. Amon-Ra St. Brown continues to be a reliable target for Goff, adding depth to their offensive arsenal. Despite key defensive injuries, the Lions have maintained solid defensive efficiency, which will be crucial against the Texans. The Texans, with a 6-3 record, are led by rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud, who has been impressive with 2,139 passing yards and 11 touchdowns. However, the absence of top receiver Stefon Diggs and Nico Collins due to injuries could hamper their passing attack. Joe Mixon remains a consistent performer in the backfield, but the Texans face a challenging task against the Lions’ defense. The Texans’ own defensive unit is dealing with significant injuries, which could impact their ability to contain the Lions’ offense. Given the Lions’ balanced attack and the Texans’ injury woes, Detroit is well-positioned to exploit mismatches and secure a win on the road. The Lions’ superior record against the spread and their overall efficiency on both sides of the ball make them a strong pick in this contest.
