Pride of Detroit

For the second time in the first four weeks of the season, the Detroit Lions are playing in primetime at home. Get used to it. It’s the new normal. While primetime games can be annoying for those covering the games, I cannot deny the pleasure of getting to sit and just enjoy a full day…

The Detroit Lions have made an addition to their Week 4 injury report, re-adding Brian Branch due to an illness. He is listed as doubtful to play on Monday night against the Seattle Seahawks. Branch, who suffered a concussion in Week 3, spent the week working his way through the NFL’s protocols. He opened the…

We’re back for another day of the SB Nation in-5 daily trivia game, and we’re returning to our system of a new article each day for the game. We tried using a single article for the game, updated with the latest game each day, but it was creating a bit of an unwieldy experience in…

The NFL seemingly made an absolutely puzzling decision this week in regard to a play from the Detroit Lions’ Week 3 game against the Arizona Cardinals. Lions safety Brian Branch was fined $10,128 for helmet-to-helmet contact on tight end Trey McBride, while McBride—who arguably initiated the contact—was not punished for the infraction.

The Detroit Lions face a pretty tough challenge on Monday night. Not only are the Seattle Seahawks undefeated and thriving under new head coach Mike Macdonald, but they also have the Lions’ number historically. Both teams are dealing with a bunch of injuries, but both have good depth to withstand them.

Detroit Lions fifth-round pick Christian Mahogany remains on the Non-Football Illness list thanks to a case of mono that cost the rookie guard his entire training camp. However, with Mahogany eligible to return to practice after Week 4, it sure sounds like the Lions plan to get him on the field soon.

Following the Detroit Lions Week 3 win over the Arizona Cardinals, the Lions exited the game with a litany of injuries. One of the biggest concerns centered around All-Pro center Frank Ragnow, who had suffered a partial pectoral tear and was ruled out of the Lions Week 4 game early in the week.

It was one of the worst-kept secrets from the 2023 NFL Draft, but Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell admitted on Saturday that they were very interested in cornerback Devon Witherspoon, who went fifth overall just before the Detroit Lions’ sixth pick in the draft. Witherspoon ended up going to the Lions’ Week 4 opponent, the…

For the fourth consecutive season, the Detroit Lions will square off against the Seattle Seahawks, hoping that this will finally be the year they get in the win column. The Lions are 0-3 in Dan Campbell’s tenure as head coach, and the Seahawks have a new coaching staff that has them sitting at 3-0 on…

The Detroit Lions (2-1) are hosting the Seattle Seahawks (3-0) on “Monday Night Football” in Week 4 and will be hoping to deliver them their first loss of the season. “This is a good opponent coming in,” Lions coach Dan Campbell said earlier in the week. “They’re playing complimentary football over there right now. A…

The respect for the Detroit Lions’ organization continues to pour out, and it’s not just from media and fans. In a recent survey done by The Athletic that polled “35 high-ranking executives and five coaches,” the Lions front office came out as one of the most well-respected in the entire NFL.

In 2010, the Seattle Seahawks hired Pete Carroll as their head coach and vice president of football operations. He was part of the hiring process for Seattle’s general manager John Schneider, and has had a hand in everything the Seahawks have done for nearly a decade and a half—including bringing home a Super Bowl championship…

The Dallas Cowboys and New York Giants will kick off Week 4 on “Thursday Night Football” in a battle between NFC East rivals. These teams have faced off 124 times over their histories (including the playoffs), with the Cowboys holding a 75-47-2 edge, including winning eight of the last nine times they faced off in…

The Detroit Lions and Seattle Seahawks will face off on “Monday Night Football” in Week 4, and with that privilege comes a slight alteration to the teams’ weekly schedules. Instead of releasing an injury report on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, things get pushed back a day, meaning the first official injury report will be out…

Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell made it loud and clear on Thursday morning: All-Pro center Frank Ragnow will not play this week against the Seattle Seahawks. “We’re going to put Frank down this week,” Campbell said. “So I’ll go ahead and get that out of the way. We can go round and round if we…

Another workweek, another week of NFL football. Here at Pride of Detroit, our staff has made their picks for not only Thursday night’s game, but the entire slate of Week 4 games. Thursday night’s game between the Dallas Cowboys and New York Giants gets things started this week, as East Rutherford is the site for…

In a way, I feel the same way about the Seattle Seahawks as I do about the Detroit Lions’ annual Thanksgiving Day game—we, as in the city of Detroit and fans of the Lions, are due. If it feels like the Seahawks have been the culprits of many tough afternoons of football, it’s because they…

These Detroit Lions aren’t the old Lions anymore, correct? The ones who would lose games in ways people haven’t seen before and a laughing stock around the NFL. The Lions have come a long way from being the loveable losers to being a Super Bowl contender, but one thing has been standing in their way…

Last week against the Arizona Cardinals, the Detroit Lions coverage team was at their best. Kyler Murray, who was coming off a performance that included a perfect passer rating against the Los Angeles Rams, was stymied almost completely. He completed just 61.7% of his passes for only 6.1 yards per attempt and a 76.5 passer…
