Another swing and a miss for me in the bold prediction factory. After thinking Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff would throw for over 300 yards and three touchdowns, Goff finished with two touchdowns and only 203 yards last week. That doesn’t mean I have to give up making bold predictions. I’ll get one right this…

Earlier this week, the NFL suspended Detroit Lions safety Brian Branch for starting a fight with JuJu Smith-Schuster after their game against the Kansas City Chiefs. On Wednesday, they upheld the suspension when Branch tried to appeal the decision. And on Thursday, NFL Films added insult to injury, posting a weird and insulting video as…
After back-to-back road games, the Detroit Lions (4-2) are back home in Week 7, as they host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (5-1) in a “Monday Night Football” showdown at Ford Field. With this game falling on a Monday, both teams’ practice schedules are altered a bit, with the Lions holding their practices on Thursday, Friday,…
When the Detroit Lions’ schedule was first released, we all knew their Week 6 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs would be tough. After all, the Chiefs have represented the AFC in the Super Bowl in five of the last six years. Even after they got off to a slow start to begin the 2025…
The Detroit Lions’ secondary is going through it right now. At cornerback, D.J. Reed and Khalil Dorsey are on injured reserve, Terrion Arnold is expected to miss at least another game, as is nickel corner Avonte Maddox. That’s not even counting 2024 second-round pick Ennis Rakestraw, who is out for the year with an injury…
When Robinson was loose, he displayed incredibly quick feet, rapidly picking them up and down like a typewriter working its way across the page. His focus on technique did help him with efficiency in drills, but when he relaxed, his natural skills took over. One of the best examples of this was in the figure…
Detroit Lions safety Brian Branch will officially miss Monday night’s game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Branch appealed a one-game suspension, and the NFL has decided to uphold the punishment. Branch’s suspension comes from a post-game fight where the Lions safety shoved Chiefs receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster after frustrations from the game boiled over. The shove…
There’s not much question about whether the Detroit Lions’ trick play against the Kansas City Chiefs was against the rules. Lions quarterback Jared Goff was called for an illegal motion on a play he motioned from quarterback to receiver and caught a touchdown pass from David Montgomery. By definition, Jared Goff had established himself as…
On Tuesday, Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell was still being a bit dodgy when it came to the availability of defensive tackle Alim McNeill. The Lions key defender has been practicing for the past two weeks, as he continues his recovery from a torn ACL suffered late last season, but he still currently remains on…
Back-to-back primetime games for your Detroit Lions. Did you ever think you would hear something like that being said? Yes, the Lions are now playing from “Sunday Night Football” to “Monday Night Football” as they hope to overcome their loss last week to the Kansas City Chiefs. The upcoming challenge won’t be easy, as the…
NFL officiating is not good. I don’t think there are many people who would disagree. Observe the fanbase of any single NFL game, and you’ll find—at least—an underbelly of people who believe their team was cheated by the officials. But this isn’t just a bunch of fans viewing the game through a heavily-biased lens, it’s…
Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell held a press conference on Tuesday, the first since his postgame media session following the team’s 30-17 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Immediately after the game, Campbell disavowed the actions of safety Brian Branch, who started a fight during post-game handshakes. The Lions coach called Branch’s actions “inexcusable” and…
On Sunday night, the Detroit Lions tried to finish off their opening drive against the Kansas City Chiefs with a trick play. David Montgomery took a direct snap, threw it over to quarterback Jared Goff, who stumbled his way into the end zone for a 1-yard touchdown. After nearly two minutes of conferring, though, the…
“You have to weigh every one of those, and so we’ll do that with Kerby,” Campbell said. “We’ll reassess here. We saw the game the other day. He tried to gut through it, played most of the game, and, look, it wasn’t his best performance, and he’ll tell you that, too. He was giving us…
