Pride of Detroit

A trap game. A revenge game. Every win in the NFL is hard. Whatever the mindset was to avoid a letdown loss to Carolina worked as Detroit waa locked in for their 42-24 victory against the Carolina Panthers. This is one of those weeks where the teacher is feeling proud and accomplished as they are…

The Detroit Lions face off against the Carolina Panthers for a big NFC matchup. While it may not look big on the surface—the Panthers are winless through four—it’s certainly a big game for the 3-1 Lions. Detroit does have a one-game lead in the NFC North, but if they’re going to act like the favorites…

The Detroit Lions (3-1) are taking on the Carolina Panthers (0-4) in Week 5, and while the Lions look like the better team on paper, they are dealing with some injuries at key spots. Let’s take a closer look at the Lions depth chart to see how they might manage those injuries and who is…

The Detroit Lions made a few roster moves on Saturday, updated their injury report, and elevated a practice squad player for their Week 5 game against the Carolina Panthers. One of the most impactful moves made was downgrading rookie running back Jahmyr Gibbs on the injury report. Gibbs practiced in full earlier in the week,…

The Detroit Lions announced on Saturday afternoon that they have activated wide receiver Jameson Williams from the commissioner’s roster exemption list and removed edge defender Julian Okwara from the injured reserve list. Both players are now on the 53-man roster and eligible to play Sunday against the Carolina Panthers.

On Friday, Ford Field announced the opening of the stadium’s sensory room, which will serve as a refuge for guests who need a quiet place to take a break from loud, crowded events and prefer a therapeutic environment that can develop sensory perception. With this addition, the Detroit Lions’ home stadium joins a growing list…

After a slow start, the Detroit Lions defense picked up in Weeks 3 and 4 with solid performances against Atlanta and Green Bay. One of the defensive leaders drawing much praise for this improvement is linebacker Alex Anzalone. Here’s former NFL safety and ESPN commentator Ryan Clark following the win at Green Bay in Week…

Our weekly Madden 24 simulations have been perfectly imperfect. Madden has predicted four winners thus far, and they have been 0-4 in their accuracy. Week 1: Week 1: Week 3: Week 4: It’s uncanny how incorrect Madden has been, but that seems to be par for the course for the video game series. They’ve pretty…

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown has missed his third straight practice, putting his status for Sunday’s game against the Carolina Panthers in doubt. While missing all practices would typically mean that player is certainly out, coach Dan Campbell left a little opening for the Lions’ top receiver to play this week.

Last year’s matchup between the Detroit Lions and Carolina Panthers produced some permanent scars for Lions fans. As the franchise was turning itself around and making a serious playoff push, they ran into a wall in Carolina despite being three-point favorites on the road. The Panthers proceeded to hang 320 rushing yards on Detroit, while…

Week 5 opened with the Chicago Bears beating up on the Washington Commanders, jumping out to a 27-3 halftime lead. The Bears let the Commanders come back in the second half and were a missed field goal away from pulling with a one-score game, but the Justin Fields to D.J. Moore connection put the game…

The Detroit Lions enter unfamiliar territory this week as 10-point favorites over the Carolina Panthers, the biggest line in their favor since 2017. With it being so early in the season, it can be a scary-looking line; we don’t really know the true identity of most teams at this point, and for a team as…

In their Week 5 matchup of the 2023 season, the Detroit Lions are back at home, hosting the 0-4 Carolina Panthers at Ford Field. It hasn’t been the best start to the year for the Panthers, who are in the early stages of their own rebuild. Their new head coach, Frank Reich, is working with…

The Detroit Lions are taking on the winless Carolina Panthers in Week 5, but both teams have something to prove, though in very different ways. “This is another opponent who’s dying for a win,” coach Dan Campbell said of Carolina. “They’ve got a damn good coaching staff, they’ve got real good players and we all…

The NFL opens up Week 5 with a matchup between the Chicago Bears and the Washington Commanders on “Thursday Night Football.” These two teams have faced off against each other 52 times in their teams’ histories, with Washington winning 23 regular season games, the Bears winning 21, and one game ending in a tie. Washington…

After the Detroit Lions lost to the Seattle Seahawks 37-31 in Week 2, fans and some local writers expressed their frustrations with defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn. It wasn’t just about allowing 37 points and nearly 400 yards of offense, but in Year 3 of Glenn’s defense, it was hard to point to any progress that…

In the old days, former Detroit Lions quarterback Matt Stafford was known for leading the team in fourth-quarter comebacks and game-winning drives. After having a rough start in games, the team would rally in the second half and in the fourth quarter to take the game over and win. Things have changed dramatically since then,…

Jameson Williams returned to practice this week after serving a four-game suspension for gambling, and his Detroit Lions teammates could not hide their excitement. On the “St. Browns Bros” podcast—featuring Lions receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown and his brother, Bears receiver Equanimeous St. Brown—they welcomed Lions running back David Montgomery to the show. Both Amon-Ra and…

Through the first four games of the 2023 NFL season, the Detroit Lions sit at 3-1, alone at the top of the NFC North division. They capped off the first four games of the year with a resounding 34-20 victory over the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field, and just like the three games played…

There’s no bigger story in football than the red-hot start of the Detroit Lions. Full stop. After all, they’re the only variable that could possibly be responsible for the NFL’s most-watched game of the season—one that even the almighty Taylor Swift couldn’t topple. This week, after an extended break, Detroit returns home with an opportunity…
