The Detroit Lions overcame five Jared Goff picks to beat the Houston Texans on Sunday Night Football. Here are three takeaways.
C.J. Stroud led Houston to a 23-7 lead at the interval, but the longer the Texans took to capitalize on Detroit's turnovers, the more the Lions realized they could claw back.
Yes, the Houston defense eventually couldn't keep Detroit from coming back to win. But there's not much more the unit could've done after recording five picks off Goff. Kamari Lassiter nabbed two, while Jimmie Ward, Calen Bullock and Henry To'oTo'o each hauled in one. After a positive rookie campaign that showed promise of growing further this season, Stroud isn't exhibiting enough to indicate the Texans can seriously contend this year. And that's a problem.With the stunning result, the Lions made some history dating back multiple decades. The last time a team won a game trailing 15-plus points with the quarterback throwing five picks occurred in 1970.
