Ok, this was kind of hard, but I wanted to challenge myself with this one. On Thursday ESPN’s Bill Barnwell ranked the worst decision of all 32 NFL teams in the last five years. The Lions came in pretty low on the list and the mistake they chose had nothing to do with Brad Holmes. 

Bears The Bears dropped to 4-10 following Week 15’s loss to the Vikings. Chicago QB Caleb Williams said that losing “really affects me” but understands he’s still developing as a rookie.  “Losing is one of those things that really affects me,” Williams said, via Courtney Cronin of ESPN. “It’s tough. But I do have the understanding

There’s hope in Detroit that injured Lions running back David Montgomery, who suffered a torn MCL in his right knee on Sunday, could return in the postseason, ESPN reported Thursday.

On Thursday Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson was asked one of the questions he’s received multiple times over the last three years, but the first time this year. Do you want to be a head coach? His response had many Lions perking up in their seats.  “I think there’s a burning desire in every

Bears When asked about the possibility of the players not having much energy left for the season, Bears’ interim HC Thomas Brown responded he doesn’t think anyone is quitting and everyone is fighting until the final whistle.  “I would disagree with you,” Brown said, via Courtney Cronin of ESPN. “If you watch the tape, our

The Detroit Lions have lost four of their past six road games against the Chicago Bears and arguably enter their Sunday visit to Chicago in a precarious position despite their perch atop the NFC.

Dan Campbell said Monday his starting running back was set to miss the rest of the season with an MCL injury. The fourth-year Lions HC backtracked on that Wednesday, indicating Montgomery has sought a third opinion on his injured knee. “David’s getting another opinion,” Campbell said (via SI.com). “He’s had a couple, and really just

The Lions lost a tough game Sunday as they were out-dueled 48-42 by Josh Allen and the Bills.
