Pride of Detroit

Detroit Lions safety Ifeatu Melifonwu has been named the NFC Player of the Week after his impressive game against the Minnesota Vikings.

The Detroit Lions took care of their own business and have now clinched a playoff spot, a divisional title, and a home playoff game. While that checks the first few boxes of the team’s goals this season, they are far from done this regular season. Detroit currently sits at the third overall seed in the…

To say Jameson Williams had a slow start to his NFL career would be an understatement. As planned following selecting him 12th overall in the 2022 NFL Draft, the Detroit Lions let him rehab from a torn ACL for most of his rookie season. His Year 2 progress was quickly derailed, too. He suffered a…

The Detroit Lions took down the Minnesota Vikings 30-24 for their 11th win of the season. No divisional game is easy on the road—particularly if that opponent is fighting for their postseason lives.

Prior to the Detroit Lions’ Week 15 game against the Denver Broncos, the team decided to make a change at kicker. Riley Patterson, who had been the team’s kicker all year, was benched in favor of Michael Badgley from the practice squad. This past week, the Lions made that change a permanent one, by waiving…

If you’re still in the afterglow of the Detroit Lions’ divisional title from this weekend, I don’t blame you. Putting to bed a 30-year drought and earning this team’s first banner of the 2000s is an accomplishment worth celebrating for more than just a day or two. Make no mistake about it, it’s a monumental…

There have been a ton of awesome videos in the aftermath of the Detroit Lions first NFC North crown ever. There’s Dan Campbell’s postgame speech honoring the veterans on the team that have gone through the wringer with this organization. Or Dan Miller’s amazing call of Ifeatu Melifonwu’s game-sealing interception. Or a compilation of locker…

If you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em. That’s essentially what the Denver Broncos did on Sunday night in the midst of their critical matchup with the New England Patriots. Facing a second-and-10 at midfield, down eight point with under five minutes remaining, Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson went to the line. After surveying the defense for…

Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell continues exemplify leadership in every possible way. After the team’s nail-biting victory over the Minnesota Vikings—clinching the team’s first divisional crown in 30 years—Campbell went into the locker room, and showed why he’s a leader of men and he gets it.

The Detroit Lions have done something unprecedented in franchise history: they won the NFC North.

With a win over the Minnesota Vikings—and a loss by the Dallas Cowboys—the Detroit Lions have temporarily moved into the NFC’s second overall seed in the conference. If the Philadelphia Eagles beat the New York Giants on Monday, Detroit will drop back down to the No. 3 seed.

‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all through Mile HighNot a creature was stirring, not even a fly.The jerseys were hung by the lockers with care,In hopes that the NFL soon would be there. The players were nestled all snug in their threads,While visions of Super Bowls danced in their heads.And Bill in his hoodie,…

It’s not a Detroit Lions win until we officially hear from play-by-play announcer Dan Miller. The iconic Voice of the Detroit Lions has been through the thick and thin with us fans, and he’s often delivered some iconic lines to narrate the best and worst moments of this franchise.

The Detroit Lions are NFC North champions, and they owe it, in part, to the play of safety Ifeatu Melifonwu. The Lions moved to Melifonwu three games ago, taking over for Tracy Walker. Since then, he’s been a sparkplug for the team’s defense. He’s a vicious blitzer, shown decent coverage skills, and has even made…

The Detroit Lions announced on Saturday afternoon they are elevating two players for Sunday’s game against the Minnesota Vikings: tight end Anthony Firkser and kicker Michael Badgley. Neither move is particularly surprising. Firkser is a necessary call-up from the practice squad, seeing as Brock Wright, the team’s TE2, has already been declared out with a…
