Allen Park — Here are four observations after having a night to ponder the Detroit Lions’ 48-45 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. First down Before “Hard Knocks” made him a star, linebacker Malcolm Rodriguez was already making headlines as a fixture in our daily camp observations.

Detroit – No, you have not seen this before. You might think you have, but you haven’t. You haven’t seen a Lions defense this bad, this ridiculously disjointed. You’ve never seen the Lions lose like they did to the Seahawks 48-45, as they allowed 555 yards of total offense and didn’t force a single punt.

Detroit — The Lions’ offense set more records Sunday. But in the end, they knew the only record that mattered looked worse than it had before. The league’s high-scoring team is now 1-3 at the quarter pole of the NFL’s regular season. And while head coach Dan Campbell spent most of his postgame press conference

Detroit — T.J. Hockenson never was worried about his lack of production to start this season, and on Sunday, he showed why.

Detroit — When you score 45 points, you should win in the NFL. But for just the 20th time in league history, and first time in franchise history, the Detroit Lions came up on the wrong side of that equation when they fell to the Seattle Seahawks, 48-45, on Sunday. As you might imagine, the

Detroit — With the offense missing several top playmakers, the Detroit Lions needed its defense to step up Sunday afternoon against the Seattle Seahawks. Instead, the unit failed to force a punt in a 48-45 defeat at Ford Field. In addition to the 48 points, Seattle also racked up 555 yards. Prior to taking a

The Detroit Lions are coming off a game in which they were the better team and still found a way to lose. Back at home against a Seahawks team that is not what it used to be, they are the better team once again, at least on paper. The Legion of Boom is no more.

Allen Park — The Detroit Lions’ injury woes on offense got a little bit worse Saturday afternoon when the team downgraded wide receiver DJ Chark to out for this weekend’s game against the Seattle Seahawks.

Allen Park — A year ago, Detroit Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson was threatening to set the franchise’s single-season records for receptions and receiving yards for his position, at times on pace to snag 100 balls. Obviously, that didn’t happen.
