Resiliency. That’s been a key word regarding the 2024 Detroit Lions. The latest example came Sunday night when the Lions erased a 16-point deficit to score a 26-23 win on a game-winning field goal over the Houston Texans.
Needless to say, the locker room was buzzing after the game. Head coach Dan Campbell provided yet another of his prime postgame speeches, which started with Campbell saying “That is the definition of resiliency.”

The Lions could have packed it in, took their lumps and leave Houston with a 7-2 record. Instead, they kept control of the NFC, improving to 8-1 heading into a home game next week against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
