I never thought I would say this, but the Detroit Lions are Super Bowl contenders. This franchise has seen Hall of Fame players never receive a Super Bowl ring, and it’s time for that to change. The Lions had a franchise-best season, going 15-2 and clinching the top seed in the NFC for the first…

This year, the Minnesota Vikings made history in the wrong way, becoming the first ever 14-win team to lose their division and have to go on the road in the first round of the playoffs.

In training camp, NFL players always have lofty goals that may or may not be attainable. Every team wants to win the Super Bowl, and every player wants to be a superstar.

The 2024-25 NFL playoffs kick off on Saturday afternoon, and there’s never been a more anticipated postseason for the Detroit Lions in the Super Bowl era.
