When your team has nothing left to play for, all you can do is try to ruin other people’s fun. The Detroit Lions did it back in 2022. After missing the playoffs, they had nothing to play for in Week 18 going up against the Green Bay Packers. Just because you have nothing to play…

Week 15 was not kind to the Detroit Lions. Not only did they drop their game against the Buffalo Bills and suffer four season-ending injuries, but the teams the Lions needed to lose didn’t. Our Week 15 rooting guide went 0-7 on Sunday and Monday, and it’s left the Lions in a much tighter playoff…
It’s not that the Detroit Lions lost against the Buffalo Bills—or even the manner in which they were beat. Lions fans are bumming this week because in addition to the loss—and wins by the Eagles and Vikings—Detroit suffered four serious injuries against the Bills, further depleting their already-patchworked roster.
The Detroit Lions announced on Tuesday the placement of three players on injured reserve: defensive tackle Alim McNeill, cornerback Carlton Davis, and cornerback Kahlil Dorsey. On Monday, Lions coach Dan Campbell confirmed that all three players suffered serious injuries, two of which will require surgery. McNeill reportedly has a torn ACL, Davis suffered a broken…
The Detroit Lions hadn’t suffered a loss in almost three months, but their defeat at the hands of the Buffalo Bills may have been far more significant than just the second loss on the season standings. More injuries to key contributors and a thorough beatdown of the offensive line, coupled with Josh Allen doing whatever…
I’m not gonna lie, as far as losses go, that was a fun one. A loss to the Buffalo Bills and the MVP-favorite in Josh Allen is a quality loss, especially under the circumstances the Detroit Lions defense is facing. Plus, it’s a good reset for the Lions, as they enter the home stretch of…
Despite a tough loss to the Buffalo Bills, Sunday was certainly a great day for Dan Skipper. The Detroit Lions offensive lineman has been getting more and more attention lately for stepping up whenever and wherever needed. Fans just loved this clip from Dan Campbell’s postgame locker room speech after the Thanksgiving win, in which…
With recent news that they will be without star running back David Montgomery for the foreseeable future, the Detroit Lions will need to explore other options at that position. While the Lions still have second-year standout Jahmyr Gibbs and a reliable backup in Craig Reynolds, they still will need to sign another running back to…
According to a report from NFL insider Aaron Wilson, the Detroit Lions are signing linebacker Anthony Pittman—who was on the Jacksonville Jaguars practice squad—to their 53-man roster. While the Lions have yet to make any official roster moves, they lost four players to injury in Week 15, including running back David Montgomery, defensive tackle Alim…
The NFL closes out Week 15 with two “Monday Night Football” games being played on ABC and ESPN. Detroit Lions fans will likely want to turn in to ABC, as the Chicago Bears will play at the Minnesota Vikings, while the Atlanta Falcons will play at Las Vegas Raiders on ESPN.
The Detroit Lions injury luck cannot possibly get any worse. [Editor’s note: Who are we kidding, it probably will.] After suffering three more defensive injuries against the Buffalo Bills, the news got even worse on Monday. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Lions running back David Montgomery is “out indefinitely” after suffering an MCL injury on…
Let’s hand out some grades in our Week 15 Detroit Lions report card. You won’t’ be very surprised by the defensive grades of the team’s 48-42 loss to the Buffalo Bills. Jared Goff put up as good of a game as you could possibly hope for in a shootout. The times the offense struggled were…
Dan Campbell didn’t mince words in his postgame press conference after the Detroit Lions’ 48-42 loss to the Buffalo Bills. “I didn’t have those guys ready to go, not like that,” Campbell said. “Not when you’re playing a team like that. That’s with me. We had a number of guys that have played a lot…
