Going undefeated in the NFL is nearly impossible, and it’s why only one team has been able to do it as long as the league has been around. Nobody predicted the Detroit Lions to go undefeated in 2023, but fans are sure acting like they were going to after the 37-31 overtime loss to the…

Last week’s loss to the Seattle Seahawks was a shock to the system and a hard dose of reality for the Detroit Lions, who now stand at 1-1 on the season. This week, the undefeated Atlanta Falcons travel to Ford Field in search of keeping their perfect start intact.
Welp. Week 2 was not a great showing for the Detroit Lions, nor for this column, but there is no time for wallowing in the fast-paced NFL season. The Lions stay at home with the 2-0 Falcons coming to town, and Atlanta has plenty of intriguing fantasy options across its young offense.
Jared Goff sold a fake so well on Sunday that he ended up taking some punishment and creating a hilarious must-see moment. Goff’s Detroit Lions lost 37-31 in overtime to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 2. Detroit was down 31-21 in the fourth quarter and had their first play from scrimmage after a pick-six gave

On Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons, Detroit Lions safety Tracy Walker will get his first start since tearing his Achilles last season. As he comes out of the tunnel at Ford Field, it will mark 364 days since suffering that injury. Yes, literally one day before the year anniversary of that dreadful afternoon in Minnesota…
Heading into their home opener last week, the Detroit Lions were riding a wave of confidence and praise. They were coming off a spirited road win over reigning Super Bowl champion Kansas City on national TV in the season opener. The euphoria died down quickly last Sunday. Following a humbling 37-31 overtime loss to the
The Detroit Lions got off to a roaring start in 2023, earning the first win of the NFL season in a road upset of the defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs. Less than two weeks later, the vibe could be changing after the team not only lost their home opener in overtime in Week
The first official practice participation report from the Detroit Lions for Week 3 offers a discouraging look at the banged-up team. Six players who would be projected starters when healthy sat out with injuries, including two offensive line stalwarts. Left tackle Taylor Decker (ankle) and right guard Halapoulivaati Vaitai (knee) both sat out. Decker missed
The Detroit Lions released their first injury report of Week 3 on Wednesday and, no surprise, there is a lot to process. The Lions have incurred an influx of injuries over the last week and have been very active with their roster management, as they prepare to take on the Atlanta Falcons at Ford Field…
Many fans will remain hung up on the interception from Jared Goff that led to a defensive touchdown for the Seahawks. Rightfully so, the pick-six was poorly placed and it was a costly one in the 4th quarter that gave the Seahawks a 10-point lead. Looking beyond the interception, there were a lot of great
Earlier in the week, the Detroit Lions officially placed edge defender James Houston and cornerback C.J. Gardner-Johnson on injured reserve. By rule, both players must miss the next four games, but with both, the expectation is they’ll be out much longer than that. Houston has a reported ankle fracture that could hold him out for…
Atlanta is 2-0 and the Lions got that win over Kansas City to start the season (when everyone was watching), making these a couple of teams that have been exceeding expectations early on. One of them is going to be disappointed come Sunday though. I hate it when teams you want to back face off
Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown will miss practice Wednesday with a toe injury and is considered day-to-day, coach Dan Campbell told reporters.

In the first practice of the Week 3 preparations, the Detroit Lions were without their top receiver. Amon-Ra St. Brown will not practice on Wednesday as he deals with a toe injury suffered in the Week 2 overtime loss to the Seattle Seahawks. St. Brown injured the toe during the game and left to have
Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown is one of many players that will miss Wednesday’s practice, according to coach Dan Campbell. While Campbell did not confirm the basis of the injury, St. Brown was seen getting treatment on his right foot during the second half of the team’s game against the Seattle Seahawk.
Detroit also signed LB Mitchell Agude, CB Darius Phillips, RB Devine Ozigbo, and OL Dan Skipper to their practice squad and cut DL Chris Smith in a corresponding move. Knight, 22, wound up going undrafted out of North Carolina State back in 2022. He later signed a rookie contract with the Jets, but was released
On Tuesday, the Pro Football Hall of Fame announced nine former NFL players as first-time nominees on the 2024 ballot. These nine players are among the 173 modern-era nominees up for consideration for enshrinement in the Hall of Fame. The inductees will be announced in February.

Some weeks, the film review of the most recent Detroit Lions game can be a lot of fun. Other times, it’s an agonizingly painful recall of a brutal loss. For the Week 2 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks, the Lions film review was somewhere in between. The loss certainly hurt, but the film review put
