The Lions D/ST recorded five sacks in a 30-23 win over the Bears in Week 13.
Fantasy Impact
The unit stood tall despite suffering multiple injuries once again, holding the Bears off of the scoreboard for the first two quarters in the win. The defense will look to shut down a Green Bay Packers offense hitting its stride in Week 14.
The Lions D/ST held the Colts out of the end zone despite failing to record a sack or turnover in a 24-6 Week 12 win.
Fantasy Impact
The unit continues to hold opposing offenses in check despite suffering key injuries of late, holding opponents under 20 points in five of the last seven games. Fantasy managers can deploy the unit with confidence against an inconsistent Chicago Bears offense on Thanksgiving in Week 13.
The Lions D/ST forced one turnover (one interception) while also recording one sack in the Lions' 52-6 win over the Jaguars in Week 11.
Fantasy Impact
The unit continues to hold opposing offenses in check, recording a turnover in all 10 of their games to this point. The defense will look to find success against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 12.
The Lions D/ST allowed 23 points while notching four sacks and forcing two turnovers in a 26-23 win over Houston in Week 10.
Fantasy Impact
Detroit held the Texans scoreless after halftime, giving their offense an opportunity to complete the comeback victory. They got sacks from Pat O'Connor, Alim McNeill, Josh Paschal, and James Houston in the win. The Lions draw a plus matchup against the Jaguars in Week 11.
The Lions D/ST allowed 14 points on 411 total yards with an interception on Sunday against the Packers.
Fantasy Impact
Detroit held Green Bay to just six points until the Packers scored a touchdown with the two-point conversion with just under four minutes in the game. The big play was a pick-six recorded by Kerby Joseph at the end of the first half. They'll be a risky play next week against the Texans if Nico Collins is healthy.
