Jake Bates made Detroit Lions history in the team’s Week 10 comeback win in Houston. Bates became the first kicker — on a franchise with a rich history of great kickers — to make two field goals of at least 50 yards in the fourth quarter of the same game. The second of those came

For the second time in just nine career game, Detroit Lions kicker Jake Bates has been named NFC Special Teams Player of the Week. Bates was a no-brainer this week after making two huge kicks in the final 5:01 of Sunday night’s game against the Houston Texans. The first, a 58-yard boom, tied the game…
The Detroit Lions host the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 11, but the Jaguars will not look the same as they typically do. Thanks to an injured shoulder, starting quarterback Trevor Lawrence has been ruled out for the game by Jaguars coach Doug Pederson. Lawrence was injured in Jacksonville’s Week 9 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.
Last year I caught a little bit of flak for saying that Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn should be the most desired Lions coordinator when it came to being a a head coach. The Lions defense wasn’t super good at the time, but the big thing for me has always been that I believe
Detroit Lions great Herman Moore speaks about Aaron Glenn and the phenomenal job he’s done coaching the Lions defense.
Today we’re going to overreact a little bit. Last Sunday night was a big night for James Houston. It felt like it was a night that everyone had been waiting on for a long time because they actually had been. In January of 2023 the Lions played the Bears at Ford Field and late in

As if the dysfunction of the Dallas Cowboys couldn’t get any more delicious, owner Jerry Jones just keeps putting his foot in his own mouth. And I’m not even talking about his ridiculous takes on the sun and the moon and the complete disregard he has for the performance of his own players.
NFL’s Week 11 features a matchup between the Detroit Lions — who have been one of the best teams this season — and the Jacksonville Jaguars — who have been the polar opposite — this Sunday. Do you want to see this matchup in person at Ford Field? Here are the ticket details you need
The halfway point of the Detroit Lions 2024 season has past and things went pretty well. The Lions are 8-1 and heading into the home stretch where they could do some damage and have a chance to walk out of the season with the first seed and home advantage through the playoffs. If these three
The Detroit Lions have Super Bowl aspirations as they sit with the best record in the NFC at 8-1. Behind the scenes, scouts are already working on the 2025 NFL Draft. With college football’s regular season hitting its home stretch, draft season is starting to ramp up. That means mock drafts will ramp up, thus
As I’m sure most of you can attest to, being a Detroit Lions fan can sometimes feel like a full-time lifestyle. The NFL has done such a good job promoting the game as a year-round event, even if football itself is only played for five months out of the year. And as we keep learning…
Detroit Lions fans have longed for their team to be the last one standing at the end of an NFL season, and with Sunday night’s comeback victory over the Houston Texans, this may finally be the year for Detroit to be Super Bowl champions. Detroit coming back from being down 23-7 on Sunday night in

The other is wide receiver Maurice Alexander, as reported by Aaron Wilson of KPRC2 in Houston. Thomas has appeared in two games this season for the Lions, against the Packers and the Titans. He had
The Pittsburgh Steelers are off to a remarkable 7-2 start. Unless the Steelers completely collapse in the final eight games, Mike Tomlin will have an 18th consecutive non-losing season. He needs just two more wins to accomplish that feat. The Steelers over/under win total heading into 2024 was 8.5. To say the least, the Steelers

Well that was crazy, wasn’t it? When you see stuff pop on a screen that says “no team since 1970” you know it’s nuts, and when you then reckon that we’re talking about the AFL/NFL merger, where the prior period was loopy in stats anyway, it gets more nuts. The Detroit Lions were nuts against…
Grade: B- The reason I went with B- here is because the penalties did happen and while he took a big break from them, he had a 45-yard one on Sunday. He’s getting better at everything though. Ennis Rakestraw I had a lot of high hopes for Rakestraw coming out, but the Lions are really
The Detroit Lions offense played at about a C-minus level on the road in Houston. Yet Jared Goff and friends still managed to eke put 26 points and a road win over a top-10 defense. Things aren’t going nearly as well in Chicago. The Bears have scored just two touchdowns in their last three games,
Lions Lions K Jake Bates drilled a pair of 50-plus yard field goals including a 58-yarder to help seal Detroit’s improbable comeback in Houston.
