“They do a lot of different things scheme wise. Lamar (Jackson)’s playing at a very high level. I mean, they’ve got the screens, they’ve got the boots, the read run, the wide zone, the toss plays. And so, they do everything out of it. They keep you on your heels. You mis-fit a gap one…

So far, my bold predictions this season might be too spicy. I struck out in week one with wide receiver Jameson Williams, and while Detroit Lions EDGE Aidan Hutchinson did record a sack against the Chicago Bears last week, it wasn’t as many as I expected. I have to eventually strike on one of them,…
Detroit Lions edge rusher Aidan Hutchinson has been on quite a journey over the last 336 days. After a remarkable start to the 2024 season, he was the clear early favorite to win Defensive Player of the Year honors. With 45 pressures (per PFF) and 7.5 sacks through four-and-a-half games, Hutchinson looked unstoppable. Then, on…
The Detroit Lions and Baltimore Ravens will square off in Week 3, in a cross-conference battle between two of the NFL’s heavyweights. With this game being held on “Monday Night Football,” the Lions’ schedule gets a bit of a delay this week. The first official injury report is released on Thursday, followed by an update…
The Detroit Lions got their season back on track last week with a win over the Chicago Bears, but the celebration didn’t last long. Brian Branch earned a game ball from Dan Campbell for his efforts against the Bears, which included a forced fumble, a sack, a pass defended, two tackles for loss, and posting…
Per Rogers, McNeill said he feels 93-94% recovered from the injury thanks to his relentless offseason rehab. The process, which included physical, red light, and shockwave therapy, has been exhaustive. But he’s been back in Detroit with the team since May, and even believes that if he had to go out there and play on…
When thinking about the upcoming matchup between the Detroit Lions and Baltimore Ravens, it’s hard not to think of their last matchup back in 2023. The Lions had finally turned the corner. They had taken down the Kansas City Chiefs in the opener. They had gotten out to a 5-1 record to start the year.…
Baltimore Ravens rookie safety Malaki Starks has had his eye on Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff for a while. Back in April, before the 2025 NFL draft, Starks was asked by Kay Adams which NFL quarterback he’s hoping to intercept as a professional defensive back. Typically, when asked this question, defenders point to MVP winners…
Sometimes all it takes is a game at home to get back on the right path. After not playing how they wanted to during their Week 1 loss to the Green Bay Packers, the Detroit Lions rebounded nicely in Week 2, running over the Chicago Bears to the tune of a 52-21 beatdown inside of…
“A+ : Afforded a clean pocket, Jared Goff picked Chicago apart from start to finish, spreading five touchdown throws to Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams and backup tight end Brock Wright. Throw in another 151 yards from the Jahmyr Gibbs-David Montgomery duo, and the all-star attack is officially back.” — Cody Benjamin on CBS Sports
While the Detroit Lions looked pretty darn good for the majority of their 52-21 victory over the Chicago Bears, it wasn’t all clean in the film room. And in order to continually get better, the Lions are going to take a longer look at their issues than the things they did well.
Sunday’s performance by the Detroit Lions was what people expected out of them. The offense made multiple big plays, the defense made some key stops, created turnovers, and generated pressure on the quarterback, and the offensive line’s performance was night and day compared to the previous week. With how the Lions played against the Chicago…
The Detroit Lions made a flurry of roster moves on Tuesday afternoon, including changes to both their active 53-man roster and their practice squad. Here’s a full list of the moves: Let’s start with the most straightforward moves: placing Zylstra on injured reserve and signing Dwelley to the practice squad. Zylstra suffered an ankle injury…
I imagine the mood at Detroit’s press conferences will be a lot less tense this week after a 31-point bludgeoning of Chicago—a game in which the Lions both beat a division rival and stuck it to their former offensive coordinator Ben Johnson in the process. Quarterback Jared Goff was back to his machine-like efficiency, the…
