On November 24th, 2024 the Detroit Lions fans invaded Lucas Oil Field in Indianapolis. It looked like we had about 60% of the fans there to start the game. By the second quarter, you could see that the Lions fans were effecting the play of the Indianapolis Colts.
Colts got out to an early Six-Zero lead in the beginning of the second quarter. To become almost completely ineffective against the Lions defense. Detroit went on to score 24 unanswered points. Some onthe back of RB David Montgomery, who had a rushing touchdown, but was held out due to injury. But mostly by 2nd Year RB Jahmyr Gibbs with 90 yards on the ground and two touchdowns scored. Jake Bates extended his perfect kicking streak to 16/16 hitting a career best 58 yard Field Goal to summarize the scoring.
The Lions defense has held opponents to Zero Touchdowns in 10 straight quarters of football. Two and a half games! But that dominance doesn’t stop there. They have held opponents to 30 total points over a 7 games span in the second half of games. 19 of which were scored by the Vikings in week seven. AG has the defense running like a well oiled machine!
