Going undefeated in the NFL is nearly impossible, and it’s why only one team has been able to do it as long as the league has been around. Nobody predicted the Detroit Lions to go undefeated in 2023, but fans are sure acting like they were going to after the 37-31 overtime loss to the…
Last week’s loss to the Seattle Seahawks was a shock to the system and a hard dose of reality for the Detroit Lions, who now stand at 1-1 on the season. This week, the undefeated Atlanta Falcons travel to Ford Field in search of keeping their perfect start intact.
Welp. Week 2 was not a great showing for the Detroit Lions, nor for this column, but there is no time for wallowing in the fast-paced NFL season. The Lions stay at home with the 2-0 Falcons coming to town, and Atlanta has plenty of intriguing fantasy options across its young offense.
On Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons, Detroit Lions safety Tracy Walker will get his first start since tearing his Achilles last season. As he comes out of the tunnel at Ford Field, it will mark 364 days since suffering that injury. Yes, literally one day before the year anniversary of that dreadful afternoon in Minnesota…
The Detroit Lions released their first injury report of Week 3 on Wednesday and, no surprise, there is a lot to process. The Lions have incurred an influx of injuries over the last week and have been very active with their roster management, as they prepare to take on the Atlanta Falcons at Ford Field…
Earlier in the week, the Detroit Lions officially placed edge defender James Houston and cornerback C.J. Gardner-Johnson on injured reserve. By rule, both players must miss the next four games, but with both, the expectation is they’ll be out much longer than that. Houston has a reported ankle fracture that could hold him out for…
Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown is one of many players that will miss Wednesday’s practice, according to coach Dan Campbell. While Campbell did not confirm the basis of the injury, St. Brown was seen getting treatment on his right foot during the second half of the team’s game against the Seattle Seahawk.
The NFL runs multiple campaigns throughout the season, including “Crucial Catch: Intercept Cancer,” “Salute to Service,” and “My Cause, My Cleats” to name a few. In Week 3 of the 2023 season, the Detroit Lions are running a unique initiative of their own, recognizing “Women in Football”, where they will be focusing on a few…
On Tuesday afternoon, the Detroit Lions made official the news we all expected to see: C.J. Gardner-Johnson and James Houston have been placed on injured reserve following injuries that occurred in Week 2. Both players will be out a minimum of four weeks, though the early expectations are that both players will be out for…
After a disappointing loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 2, the Detroit Lions currently sit tied for first in the NFC North with the Green Bay Packers. It was a game that the Lions were favored and should have won, but losses happen in the NFL, and perhaps the bigger disappointment was the injuries…
It’s never a good thing when a player is out on injury, but as the saying goes, it’s next man up. That next man up was Penei Sewell on Sunday, who stepped in at left tackle against the Seattle Seahawks while veteran Taylor Decker was sidelined with an ankle injury. It’s not uncommon for linemen…
It wasn’t the outcome the raucous crowd at Ford Field had hoped for in the Detroit Lions’ home opener this season, but it’s a stark reminder of life in the NFL, and how much the old adage rings true: any given Sunday. At one moment, you’re spoiling the banner night moment of the Super Bowl…
Through two weeks in the NFL, the Detroit Lions’ pass rush has been absolutely woeful. They only have one sack thus far—and that didn’t come until the very end of regulation in their Week 2 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks, and it came literally 13 seconds into the play. While Aidan Hutchinson does lead the…
The NFL closes out Week 2 with a “Monday Night Football” doubleheader, featuring rivals from the NFC South and AFC North. In the first of the two games, the New Orleans Saints are on the road to take on the Carolina Panthers, and then shortly after, game two will feature the Cleveland Browns at Pittsburgh…
Sunday’s loss to the Seattle Seahawks was undoubtedly a letdown for the Detroit Lions after their big opening win last week. The Seahawks are a good team, but with a raucous Ford Field crowd and a relatively healthy roster (comparatively speaking), there was a lot of optimism that Detroit would parlay last week’s win with…
Football is a game of inches, and Sunday was as much of a reminder as ever for Detroit Lions fans. It was a painful overtime loss, but it gave plenty to be optimistic about in some facets against one of the league’s better teams. In others, it left a lot to be desired. Here are…
The Detroit Lions lost their game against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday, but they lost more than that on the field. It’s one thing to have minor injury reports after a game, but the Lions boasted a lengthy list of wounds. Already missing Taylor Decker for the game and Emmanuel Moseley not fit for duty…
Can anybody stop Tyreek Hill? That is the question on everyone’s mind as the Miami Dolphins travel to face the New England Patriots on Sunday Night Football. In the Dolphins’ Week 1 win over the Los Angeles Chargers, Hill took over the game to the tune of 215 yards and two touchdowns. The offense isn’t…
