All offseason, we heard the Detroit Lions hype up Derrick Barnes heading into his fourth year. He was a surprise contributor in 2023, playing well enough to split time with first-round pick Jack Campbell. But heading into 2024, the Lions had found a very specific role for Barnes—the SAM linebacker spot—that he was uniquely qualified…

After beating the previously undefeated Minnesota Vikings, are the Detroit Lions now the best team in football?

It was a rollercoaster of a heavyweight battle. The Detroit Lions were dealing with a case of quicksand early in Minnesota against a Vikings team fresh off a bye.

Last week after the Detroit Lions clobbered the Dallas Cowboys to the tune of 47-9, former New Jersey governor Chris Christie went to sports talk radio to complain. Christie, a Cowboys fan, thought the Lions went over-the-top with their conduct, still running trick plays against Dallas while up four scores. In particular, he seemed to…

I don’t need to convince you that the Detroit Lions offense is on fire. Detroit has put up 30 points in three straight games, and Jared Goff is in the midst of an MVP-type of run. But sometimes a stat comes along that makes your jaw drop, no matter how in-tune with the team you…
