For the first time in franchise history, the Detroit Lions have earned a playoff bye. It’s an unprecedented success for a team that just won two playoff games in the same season for the first time in over 60 years in 2023. It’s not a new situation for head coach Dan Campbell, however. Campbell was
When the Detroit Lions’ defensive struggles were at its worst, fans clung to the hope that the few players who would return from injury could help resettle a Detroit defense that once ranked into the top five in nearly every metric. Unfortunately, the injuries only seemed to mount and the list of players who could…
In what was one of the more electric atmospheres of the 2024 regular season, the Detroit Lions took care of business in Week 18 by soundly defeating the Minnesota Vikings, 31-9. In doing so, they finished with a perfect 6-0 record in-division, as well as locked down both their second consecutive NFC North title, and…
Aaron Glenn turned in a masterclass of defensive tactics in the Lions Week 18 win over the Minnesota Vikings. Detroit’s defensive coordinator used a barrage of seldom-used schemes and pressure/coverage packages to dominate Minnesota QB Sam Darnold in Sunday night’s resounding 31-9 victory in Ford Field. The Next Gen Stats spotlight from the game nicely
Welcome to the year of the “merchant.” For some reason, the internet gets locked onto a word and then just starts using it for everything. The other day I saw someone call Kerby Joseph a turnover merchant as a way to insult him. I have no idea what is happening to Football Twitter right now.
The Detroit Lions, in their second Game #272 “Sunday Night Football” game in three years, mauled the Minnesota Vikings 31-9. The Lions’ commanding victory was thanks in large part to a 21-0 run to end the game. The win is Detroit’s fifth straight win against Kevin O’Connell’s Vikings, dating back to 2022 and completed a…
The Lions head into the playoffs as the #1 seed with a 15-2 record. It’s an impressive feat. It’s even more impressive considering the absurd number of defensive injuries the team has had to overcome. I’ve compiled a video retrospective (if available) of the most significant injuries to the defense. The list is ranked starting
Just as the playoffs are getting underway, the offseason is in full force for the 18 teams that were not good enough to make the postseason. Six of them have the added challenge of attempting to hire the right head coach to lead them to the promised land. Let’s take a look at each of
Bears The Bears were able to finish their season with a win over the Packers, which served as a sort of redemption given that K Cairo Santos was able to make the game-winning kick after having one blocked by Green Bay with the game on the line earlier in the season. “You couldn’t ask for
The Las Vegas Raiders are in the market for a new head coach after the firing of Antonio Pierce on Tuesday. That seems to be a recurring theme for the Raiders as they look to hire a fifth head coach since 2019. Yardbarker takes a look at the possible five candidates the Raiders could target
Football has become cynical, deathly so. Only the best quarterbacks, only the top stories, culture means winning and not much else. When Dan Campbell came to town, it was far from that; a hope that things could change, a will to built culture and a new way for a franchise everyone had dismissed.
Fresh off his record-setting performance in Detroit’s Week 18 domination of the Minnesota Vikings, Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs is one of the three nominees for the weekly FedEx Ground Player of the Week. Gibbs ran for 139 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday night’s win in Ford Field. Just for good measure, he also
In his first press conference since the Lions clinched the No. 1 seed in the NFC postseason, Lions head coach Dan Campbell ran through a list of Detroit’s injured players. While not all news was positive, a couple of key players appear ready to come back right away, David Montgomery Detroit’s running back has been
The Detroit Lions plan for running back David Montgomery to be back for their first playoff game in the NFC divisional round.
