There’s a convergence among NFL teams in their slogans. Much like the crab form in nature, all football teams eventually invoke the same totems in their quest to be the most football of all. Toughness, both physical and mental. Every wants to be blue collar, every wants that Midwest Rust Belt character of grit and…

The Detroit Lions’ thrilling win over the Chicago Bears was the cure to many ills on Sunday afternoon. For two-and-a-half hours, the game was a miserable slog.

The Detroit Lions continue to hold the No. 2 seed in the NFC Playoff Picture, but with the Philadelphia Eagles facing the Kansas City Chiefs this week, you can just smell that top seed.

On any given week, you can catch an incredibly passionate Penei Sewell giving an invigorating pregame speech, surrounded by teammates hanging on his every word. At just 23 years old, the offensive lineman quickly became a leader on the Detroit Lions—something that didn’t just start this year, either. He’s been doing this all along, cementing…

The Detroit Lions enter the “easy” part of their schedule this week with the Chicago Bears coming to town.
