Pride of Detroit

In the NFL, you don’t expect to be playing your best ball in Week 1, but you also don’t want to come out so flat that you kill the vibes and start with a loss. For the Detroit Lions, they did what great teams do. They didn’t play their best game—not even close—but they found…

Week 1 of the 2024 NFL has been chock full of excellent Primetime games. The Kansas City Chiefs beat the Baltimore Ravens in a game that came down to a toe being out of bounds on Thursday, the Philadelphia Eagles beat the Green Bay Packers in a game that came down to the final possession…

It appears DJ Reader will make his Detroit Lions debut on Sunday for the team’s Week 2 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The Detroit Lions have won 21 of their last 28 regular season games. Hold on, I just had to quadruple check that to make sure I wasn’t hallucinating.

The Detroit Lions’ battle with the Los Angeles Rams in last year’s Wild Card round was one of the more exciting and tense games of the year. The 2024 sequel certainly did not disappoint. It took overtime to decide the Week 1 tilt, but thanks to a coin toss and an imposing run game, the…

The Detroit Lions’ path to Super Bowl 59 begins on Sunday night. Detroit enters 2024—their 91st franchise season—in a position they’ve rarely ever been: a popular Super Bowl pick.

The Detroit Lions have declared their inactives ahead of the Week 1 matchup with the Los Angeles Rams on “Sunday Night Football.” After reducing their roster to 52 players at cutdowns, the Lions had an open spot on the roster and used that opening to sign defensive tackle Chris Smith to the active roster. Additionally,…

The Detroit Lions kick off their 2024 season just as they kicked off their 2023 postseason: at home, Sunday night, against Matthew Stafford and the Los Angeles Rams.

The Detroit Lions have declared their injury designations ahead of their “Sunday Night Football” matchup with the Los Angeles Rams in Week 1 of the 2024 season.
