Jamaal Williams, Detroit Lions (Photo by Leon Halip/Getty Images) Three years ago, the Detroit Lions opened the season with a new coaching staff. And they got run out of their own building, losing 48-17 to the New York Jets to open the Matt Patricia era. Three years later it looked like the Lions would open
Sunday was an incredible day for the Stafford family.

The first song of any album or playlist is supposed to set the tone. Depending on the overall theme of the record, it’s meant to kick into high energy, grab you by the collar, tease you with something vaguely intriguing or pull at your emotional heartstrings. The first song in an album is drastically important
Everybody was going crazy. OK. Stop. That’s deceiving. Let me rephrase: The few fans left in Ford Field were going crazy on Sunday afternoon. Near the end of his Detroit Lions head coaching debut, Dan Campbell stood on the sideline, watching intently, slowly chewing gum. Campbell did not come across as a crazed, over-caffeinated, fist-pumping, vocal-cord
The Detroit Lions came up eight points short against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 1, and while a spirited effort down the stretch earned them a slight bump in most rankings, their spotty play over the course of the entire game will still keep them near the bottom of the league. Let’s take a
The Detroit Lions we knew wouldn’t be very good. The Chicago Bears figured to be below average, too. The Minnesota Vikings looked like a middle-of-the-pack team, mostly because they play the Lions and Bears twice this year. But the Green Bay Packers were supposed to be a Super Bowl contender. The fact that the Packers got
Drafted to play right tackle for the Detroit Lions, many are wondering what the future holds for rookie Penei Sewell after a stellar debut on the left side of the team’s offensive line, in place of injured starter Taylor Decker. Lions coach Dan Campbell hears that noise, but moving Sewell permanently to the left side, a
Every week, we’re going to look around the Detroit Lions’ division to see what happened with the other NFC North teams.

If
Week 1 of the 2021 regular season is in the books for the Detroit Lions and seven of the team’s 10 rookies made their NFL debuts.

While the Detroit Lions’ fight to stay in the game Sunday may have been exciting for fans, many sports bettors were likely pretty peeved. Perhaps it’s because it just recently became legal in Michigan, but sports betting seems to be all the rage right now. Every other commercial is a sportsbook ad. So, naturally, when
When the Detroit Lions face reigning MVP Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers next Monday night, they likely will start rookies at two of their three cornerback positions. Third-round pick Ifeatu Melifonwu is in line to take over for Jeff Okudah after Okudah ruptured the Achilles tendon in his left leg in last week’s
On the surface of the Detroit Lions’ season opening loss to the San Francisco 49ers, there wasn’t a lot that we didn’t expect. The offense struggled to push the ball deep early in the game, relying heavily on checkdowns and the running game for success. Defensively, the Lions picked up where the left off last
For the first time in the regular season, football will be played in Las Vegas with a packed crowd in attendance. Allegiant Stadium is ready to make its in-season debut with fans, and it’s a big one for the hometown Las Vegas Raiders: Monday Night Football. The Raiders are hoping to build upon a mediocre

It’s a devastating blow for both the player and team. Okdauh had been a standout on the practice field throughout the offseason and
FOOTBALL IS BACK! The first Detroit Lions game is in the books. Some of us were realistic about the matchup, while others were a bit more optimistic. The Lions fell to the San Francisco 49ers with a final score of 41 to 33. Things seemed to be going okay in the first half until they
The Detroit Lions made it official and placed cornerback Jeff Okudah on injured reserve on Monday.
