Lions stuff Colts 24-6, win ninth in a row

The Lions secured a convincing 24-6 victory over the Indianapolis Colts at Lucas Oil Stadium Sunday, moving to 10-1 on the season with their ninth straight win.

Detroit ran the ball very well in the contest, with running back Jahmyr Gibbs finding the endzone twice on 91 rushing yards and David Montgomery scoring once on 73 total yards. This performance extended Detroit's already league-record 25 consecutive game streak with at least one touchdown run, including the postseason. The Lions outgained Indianapolis 390 to 268 in total yards but used an impressive 9 of 15 conversion rate on third down to extend drives into points.

The defense stood tall once again for Coach Campbell, as they prevented the Colts from scoring a touchdown. Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson struggled to get the offense against Aaron Glenn's defense, as many receiver drops and penalties prevented any momentum. This makes it 10 quarters since the Lions defense has allowed an opposing touchdown.

This win not only highlights the Lions' ability to play both a balanced offense and a staunch defense but also keeps them in a strong position for the playoffs, aiming for the first seed and a postseason bye in the NFC. Concerns do rise for the injuries sustained in the contest, as players like Kalif Raymond, Taylor Decker, Carlton Davis II, and David Montgomery went down during the contest. None are believed to be season-ending.

The Colts drop to 5-7 and now face pressure for a winning push to keep their playoff hopes alive. 

Detroit returns to action on Thursday, Nov. 28 for the Thanksgiving Classic against the Chicago Bears. Catch full game coverage starting at 11:30 A.M. on NewsRadio WBRN via 96.5 FM and 1460 AM. Kickoff is slated for 12:30 P.M.
