It’s Super Bowl week, and there are 30 franchises spending the next six days envious of the position the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs are in. These are two franchises that are not that far removed from their last Super Bowl wins, and they each look to be in a position where they could…
The season is over but Detroit Lions rookies are still showing up on awards lists. CBS Sports Chris Trapasso created a unique list of awards for first-year players. Although the Lions didn’t make his list of “official” rookie awards, they did rake in the awards for some other important titles.

The Detroit Lions’ defense wasn’t good last year, but by the end of the season, it did provide one thing: hope. Down the stretch, the Lions’ defense wasn’t just better, it was good. Since Week 9, the Lions allowed just 20.2 points per game, which ranked 11th over that time period. Over the same span,…

Of course, when an offense is firing on all cylinders like that, there are several reasons for it. The offensive coordinator deserves a share of the praise.…
Let’s face it: you are probably going to watch the Pro Bowl. Maybe not you, the personal you, but the rhetorical “you” will. In spite of all the bellyaching about the changes to the Pro Bowl, the cheapening of the title, and all those nasty things, the Pro Bowl still outperforms other sporting events in…
This week, news hit suddenly that Detroit Lions assistant head coach/running backs coach Duce Staley was leaving the team to join the Carolina Panthers. At first, it wasn’t clear why Staley would leave Detroit when he was not getting a head coach opportunity elsewhere. All that was clear was that Staley was joining a familiar…
