Completely depends on your own risk tolerance, and if there is anything after your flight to LHR. (Perhaps via AMS?). How "safe" do you want to be?

 

2 hours is a decent connection - DTW is far easier for connects than ATL. If you take the longer connect, you can either use the SkyClubs (if you have access), stroll through the light-show tunnel, rest near the Water Feature or have a nice meal at the Westin, which is attached to the terminal. Plenty of other dining as well. Reasonable amount of shopping available, and there is a day spa where you can have some "work" done on you, including massages.
