Pride of Detroit

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…

Last week, the Detroit Lions moved to 8-2 for the first time since 1962. Today, on Thanksgiving, they look to keep pace with that team by moving to 9-2 with a win over the Green Bay Packers. No divisional game is ever easy, but there are a few things working in the Lions’ favor this…

The Detroit Lions continue to grab attention in the best way and head into their annual spotlight game with plenty of positive momentum. Though the Green Bay Packers are not good enough to make this an exciting battle of true contenders, the Lions are unlikely to pass up the opportunity to make some noise anyway.

If you grew up watching or playing football, chances are you didn’t have dreams of one day becoming an offensive lineman. After all, how fun can it really be? Sure, everything starts with the players up front. But what about the recognition? Offensive linemen don’t typically sell a ton of jerseys (although we are seeing…
