Pride of Detroit

It hasn’t been an easy road for the Detroit Lions. At this point, everyone knows the history. For decades, the franchise felt as though they couldn’t get things right. Even when there were glimmers of hope from Hall of Famers like Barry Sanders and Calvin Johnson, they couldn’t get enough together to make things click.

The Detroit Lions announced they are elevating linebacker, David Long Jr., from the practice squad for their Week 12 game against the Indianapolis Colts. With injuries to Alex Anzalone, Derrick Barnes, and Jalen Reeves-Maybin (all on injured reserve), the Lions have needed to shuffle around their linebacker group and have recently added more depth. This…

The Detroit Lions are activating cornerback Emmanuel Moseley from injured reserve, and placing rookie corner Ennis Rakestraw on injured reserve with a hamstring injury in a corresponding move. Coming off his third stint on injured reserve in as many years, Mosely will have a chance to prove he is still the player the Lions coveted…

On Saturday, the Detroit Lions announced that they have downgraded rookie corner Terrion Arnold (groin) to OUT for their Week 12 game against the Indianapolis Colts. Arnold suffered a groin injury during Thursday’s practice, and despite getting in a full practice on Friday, he was listed as questionable, and the team was optimistic he would…

The Detroit Lions are unstoppable right now. The Indianapolis Colts, on the other hand, are quite stoppable. Sunday, we’ll see what happens when an unstoppable force meets a very movable object. Will it be another 50-point game? I’m not so sure. But what I am sure of is that the Lions will continue to see…

The Detroit Lions (9-1) and Indianapolis Colts (5-6) have released their injury designations ahead of their Week 12 matchup on Sunday. The news is a bit of a mixed bag in the Lions’ secondary, as they’re dealing with a couple of injuries but they could also be getting some more depth very soon.

As the holiday season approaches and temperatures drop, the intensity of the NFL regular season gets cranked up a few notches. And with the Detroit Lions traveling to face the Indianapolis Colts in Week 12 for a 1 p.m. ET start, it leaves us as Lions fans open to watch some (hopefully) good football the…

Week 12 begins with an AFC North rivalry on “Thursday Night Football,” as the Pittsburgh Steelers (8-2) travel to Ohio to take on the Cleveland Browns (2-8). These teams have met 145 times in their histories, with Pittsburgh holding a 79-62-1 regular season advantage, as well as a 2-1 advantage in the playoffs.

After holding a walkthrough on Wednesday, the Detroit Lions (9-1) held a more intense practice on Thursday as they prepared to take on the Indianapolis Colts (5-6) in Week 12. With the core of the team and coaching staff having been together for over three seasons, the Lions feel like they have the intelligence and…

As always on Thursdays, we’re going to take the most important moments from the Detroit Lions offensive coordinator press conferences. This week’s topics range from Jameson Williams’ ability to save a play to a bunch of Aaron Glenn look-alikes as the team gets prepared for Sunday’s contest against the Indianapolis Colts.

Every year, we try to find new ways to expand the Pride of Detroit community, and this season, we’re doing something we’ve never done before! On Wednesday, December 4, we will be recording a mega-episode of the PODcast LIVE in front of an audience at The Magic Stick at the historic Majestic Theater in downtown…

In the modern NFL, you’re at a disadvantage if your quarterback is a statue. Having someone who can escape pressure and run for yardage or execute designed run plays has increased over the years. While teams can still find success with a pocket passer under center (*cough, the Detroit Lions*) more teams are starting to…

The Detroit Lions (9-1) are back on the road in Week 12, traveling to Indiana to take on the Indianapolis Colts (5-6). Just like the previous two weeks, the Lions are starting the week slow and running a walkthrough to begin the practice portion of the week. Unfortunately, these types of practices are not open…

You’d figure that Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff would have been a shoo-in for NFC Offensive Player of the Week after his performance against the Jacksonville Jaguars. As a quick reminder, he completed 24-of-29 passes for 412 yards, four touchdowns, zero interceptions, zero sacks, and a perfect 158.3 passer rating. It was only the seventh…

It’s no surprise that the Detroit Lions earned several awards and honors after their 52-6 dismantling of the Jacksonville Jaguars. It was near perfection from the offense and another strong day at the office from the defense. Let’s run through the honors in Wednesday’s edition of Lions Notes—knowing that more could be coming soon (Jared…

The Super Bowl favorite Detroit Lions head back on the road this week after returning to Ford Field to showcase a 52-6 drumming against the Jacksonville Jaguars last week. The Lions don’t have to go far, though, as they travel down to Indiana to play the Indianapolis Colts in the series finale of AFC South…

Perfection is something we all might strive for in one way or another, but it can take people years—even a lifetime—to reach that condition or state of flawlessness. For offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, quarterback Jared Goff, and the rest of the Detroit Lions offense, it only took until Week 11 to play some perfect football.

The Detroit Lions have found every way to win this season. They’ve won nail biters, rivalries, primetime games, and blowout games. Heck, they’ve won games they were supposed to lose. Some folks prefer the comfort of taking an early lead and never looking back. For others, there’s thrill in a game that comes down to…

The Detroit Lions continue to make adjustments to their roster, and according to a report from NFL insider Aaron Wilson, they have elected to remove defensive tackle Brodric Martin from injured reserve and add him to the 53-man roster. He will take the open spot created after placing Ifeatu Melifonwu on injured reserve on Tuesday.
