Our 2024 Detroit Lions free agent series continues, where we break down every single individual decision the team must make with their free agent class. We continue with one of the more interesting decisions to be made. In 2023, the Lions signed Emmanuel Moseley, hoping he’d eventually be their starting cornerback. Safe to say, that…

Super Bowl ads have had a rough stretch in recent years, but this year’s batch was a pretty good crop for the most part. While the game itself was a bit of a struggle to watch for the first 45 or so minutes, we at least got some funny and unserious commercials spread throughout.

Our 2023 Detroit Lions Pride of Detroit awards continues after kicking off on Monday with Breakout Player of the Year. Today, we move to the third phase of the game. And for as much grief as I give special teams, it can undoubtedly make a huge impact on a game. The Super Bowl provided a…

We continue our Detroit Lions free-agent profiles series for the 2023-2024 season with a fan favorite in offensive lineman Graham Glasgow. Glasgow returned to the Lions in 2023 after getting released by the Denver Broncos after the 2022 season. The offensive line is the most important position group for this front office and coaching staff,…

“The Detroit Lions would have played better!” That was a thought appearing quite frequently amidst the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers Super Bowl matchup. Both offenses struggled early and often, leading a halftime score of just 10-3. In contrast, the Lions had put up 24 points in the first half against the 49ers…

The Detroit Lions, sadly, will not be playing tonight—in the final NFL game of the 2024 season. We don’t need to talk about why. We don’t need to talk about how close they were. This night is not about the Lions, and let’s just not talk about it.

Detroit Lions fans have expressed pretty loudly that they have little interest in the outcome of Super Bowl. Hell, many of you don’t even plan to watch it. In our poll from Saturday, over half of Lions voters said they do not even plan on watching the San Francisco 49ers take on the Kansas City…

One of the more exciting parts of the offseason will be finally getting to see what the Detroit Lions have in quarterback Hendon Hooker. The Lions selected Hooker in the third round of the 2023 NFL Draft knowing that most of his rookie season was going to be redshirted due to his recovery from a…

The San Francisco 49ers and Kansas City Chiefs will be facing off in Super Bowl 58, and according to the folks over at DraftKings Sportsbook, this should be a tight matchup. At this time, the 49ers are the current favorites, but it’s by less than a field goal, which could mean we are in for…

Back again here with our Detroit Lions free agent profiles series for the 2023-2024 season. This time I am here to discuss offensive lineman Halapoulivaati Vaitai. Vaitai signed with the Lions back in 2020, inking a five-year $45 million deal. With injuries riddling Vaitai the past few seasons, it might be time for Detroit to…

It’s Super Bowl day, and it’s gloomy in Detroit. Fans are clearly not over the Detroit Lions’ heartbreaking loss in the NFC Championship game, and it’s hard to blame them. We are not familiar with stakes like this, so while we’re no stranger to pain—this is a whole different level.

On Friday, the Detroit Lions media folks posted a solid nine minutes of Amon-Ra St. Brown mic’d up at the Pro Bowl Games to the team’s official YouTube channel. There’s a lot of great moments in the video, from game action during flag football to goofing around with teammates. Several bits are nice callbacks to…

For many, the Detroit Lions’ loss to the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Championship game was too tough of a blow, and the interest in watching Sunday’s Super Bowl might be at an all-time low for Lions fans. For head coach Dan Campbell, he’ll be watching, as this is just another opportunity to find…

Earlier in the week, we posted our latest SB Nation Reacts poll, asking Detroit Lions fans: Which pending free agent do you most want the Lions to re-sign? The results of that survey are in, and while the overall preference order went as expected—they are nearly identical to how I ranked these players at the…

Late on Friday night, it was revealed that the Seattle Seahawks are hiring Ryan Grubb as their new offensive coordinator, despite the fact that Grubb had accepted the Alabama job just weeks earlier. As pointed out by ESPN’s Field Yates, this hire closes out the coaching carousel for coordinators and head coaches, as all 32…

Most of the Detroit Lions recent success has been understandably credited to general manager Brad Holmes and coach Dan Campbell. Holmes—who has a 99% approval rating—has built this roster from rubble, producing a depth chart full of All Pros and Pro Bowlers. Campbell (97% approval) has successfully turned around the culture of Detroit, when it…

Despite having a feeling this was going to happen last night, it didn’t seem like there was going to be this much blowback over the NFL Honors. The uproar was loud in Detroit Lions-centric circles after head coach Dan Campbell finished third in this year’s Associated Press NFL Coach of the Year award, earning a…

I will give the NFL this—at least that was entertaining. The 2023 NFL Honors show wrapped up late last night, and the Las Vegas flair was evident throughout most of the evening. Despite having several members of the Detroit Lions up for awards, both players and coaches ended up empty-handed. If you want to see…

The Detroit Lions came up emptyhanded at the NFL Honors awards for the 2023 season, but for the second year in a row, several came close. Offensive coordinator Ben Johnson came third in Assistant Coach of the Year voting, Jahmyr Gibbs (fourth) and Sam LaPorta (third) both finished in the top-five of Offensive Rookie of…

Last year, Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson came in second in voting for the Associated Press’ Assistant Coach of the Year award. This year, it was more of the same. Despite another impressive season for the Lions offense—and one that led the team to the NFC Championship game—Johnson was once again beaten out by…
