Pride of Detroit

After getting beat up on Thanksgiving Day by the Green Bay Packers, the Detroit Lions are taking another hit on Tuesday morning, this time from the national power rankers. There are portions of the Lions fan base that are understandably concerned after a few games that were tighter than they should have been, but coach…

The clock is ticking until the 2024 NFL Draft — quite literally at Campus Martius, where a giant clock displaying a countdown to the big event ticks away second by second. In about 150 days, Detroit will host one of the biggest sporting events from April 25-27. The key, said Mayor Mike Duggan at a…

With a tough loss on Thanksgiving, the Detroit Lions’ odds to win the division took a minor hit, and their odds to take away the No. 1 seed in the conference have all but disappeared. But much of that changed on Monday night. In an ugly NFC North bout, the Minnesota Vikings lost to the…

During his Monday press conference, Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell named two starters who could miss this week’s game due to injury: left guard Jonah Jackson and linebacker Alex Anzalone. Jackson has missed five out of the last six games. During the first three, he was dealing with a knee injury. For the past two…

The Carolina Panthers started the week by announcing the firing of head coach Frank Reich. But as the day went on, it became apparent that this was not the only coaching change they were making. As first reported by ESPN, assistant head coach and running backs Duce Staley and quarterbacks coach Josh McCown were also…

If the past two weeks have taught us anything, it’s that the Detroit Lions have some obvious flaws. That doesn’t mean the team is doomed, just about every team in the NFL has flaws. However, it has been a bit of a rude awakening for some who believed this team would walk to a division…

After a 1-10 start to the season, the Carolina Panthers have fired head coach Frank Reich. He is the second head coach fired in the middle of the 2023 season, joining former Raiders coach Josh McDaniels. This was only Reich’s first season with the Panthers, so ownership is looking to move on quickly here.

With a tough loss on Thanksgiving, the Detroit Lions’ odds to win the division took a minor hit, and their odds to take away the No. 1 seed in the conference have all but disappeared. But the one thing that remains in perfectly good shape is their odds of making the playoffs overall. They still…

Are you ready for a second dose of “Sunday Night Football” in Week 12? After closing out Thanksgiving Day, “Sunday Night Football” returns to its regularly schedule day. Whereas the Thanksgiving nightcap was a rout by the San Francisco 49ers, hopefully tonight’s edition is more competitive. And with two top-offenses, we could certainly see it.

The Detroit Lions saw their NFC North divisional odds take a pretty significant dip this week after dropping their Thanksgiving Day game to the Green Bay Packers. However, they’re still 8-3 on the season and in a pretty darn good situation when it comes to the NFC Playoff picture. By the end of the week,…

For the second week in a row, the Detroit Lions didn’t play like a team battling for the No. 1 seed in the NFC. After escaping Ford Field with a victory against the Chicago Bears in Week 11, the Lions came out on the losing side of things in their Thanksgiving Day tilt with the…

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown was fined $43,709 for a block he threw during the team’s Week 11 game against the Chicago Bears. That is an absolutely massive fine by NFL standards—particularly for a player who doesn’t exactly have a rep of bad behavior or poor conduct. In fact, it was the largest…

This week’s Detroit Lions draft watch focuses on just one game. Actually, not just one game, it’s THE GAME: Ohio State (2) at Michigan (3) at 12:00 p.m. ET on FOX. This game is loaded with NFL prospects, some of which have already been featured in our weekly draft watchlist this season. Because of this,…

Of course I spend the last ten weeks shouting “brand new Lions” from the rooftops, only for the Detroit Lions to be humiliated in front of their largest audience of the year. We’ve got lots of movers this week, and it’s safe to say it’s a bear market.

Well, that was a wild week of football for the Detroit Lions. Two really sloppy games in a span of five days. One miraculous comeback victory against the Chicago Bears in the final minutes of the game, and one pretty ugly loss to the Green Bay Packers on Thanksgiving day leaves the Lions at 8-3…

The Detroit Lions fell to the Green Bay Packers in a sloppy game on both sides of the ball. The offense had too many turnovers, while the defense didn’t seem to have an answer for Jordan Love. Let’s hand out some grades for the Lions’ 29-22 loss on Thanksgiving.

Have you had your fill of turkey yet? I hope you have not had your fill of NFL football, since we have one more game to cap off the night. The San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks face off in an NFC West showdown, two teams looking primed for a playoff push. The question is…

In the third quarter of the Detroit Lions’ Thanksgiving Day game against the Green Bay Packers, Lions coach Dan Campbell turned up his aggression to 11 by calling a fake punt. With the team trailing by two scores early in the third quarter, fourth-and-4 from their own 23-yard line, the Lions dialed up a direct…

For the second week in a row, the Detroit Lions struggled in all facets of the game against a division rival. After dominating the Green Bay Packers in Week 4, the Lions made mistake after mistake in a game that was not as close as the 29-22 final score would indicate.

Thanksgiving was not a holiday for the Detroit Lions. The Lions’ loss to the Green Bay Packers marks back-to-back poor outings from the team. They were lucky enough to rally for a victory last week against the Chicago Bears, but an early deficit was too much to overcome against a Packers team playing at its…
