Even after producing one of their best seasons in franchise history, the Cincinnati Bengals have to get right back on the horse, as NFL free agency is right around the corner. Safety Jessie Bates III is heading into free agency and looking to become one of the league’s highest-paid safeties, so the Bengals are going […]

If the Detroit Lions want to look more like an NFL team and appear less like a dumpster on fire, then they need to plug plenty of holes on their team. The Lions nearly went winless for an entire year – again – in 2021, as it took them 13 games before they finally notched […]

The Detroit Lions had to watch as former quarterback Matthew Stafford won a Super Bowl with the Los Angeles Rams after they traded him away last offseason. It had to be hard for the franchise to watch their longtime signal-caller win the big game while wearing another uniform. However, if the Lions and their fans […]

The Detroit Lions’ trade of Matthew Stafford for Jared Goff spelled the end of contention for the franchise in many people’s eyes. That sentiment seemingly looked even better after Stafford led the Los Angeles Rams to a Super Bowl title while Goff and the Lions floundered en route to another losing season. However, hope should […]

Matthew Stafford may be with the Los Angeles Rams now, but he has nothing but love and appreciation for the Detroit Lions and the fans who continue to support him even after his move. In fact, Stafford had an awesome interaction with a Lions fan during the Rams’ Super Bowl victory parade at Disneyland on […]

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford finally got the elusive Super Bowl ring he coveted with his team’s win over the Cincinnati Bengals. Before finally securing the Lombardi Trophy with the Rams, Stafford had spent the previous 12 seasons with the Detroit Lions, making the playoffs just three times. Still, the veteran quarterback poured his […]

The Detroit Lions head into the upcoming offseason with plenty of dilemmas across the board within their roster. One could debate for hours on whether the first year under general manager Brad Holmes and head coach Dan Campbell was anywhere close to a success. Of course, the Lions once again missed out on playing playoff […]

Former NFL player and ex-Los Angeles Rams first round pick Greg Robinson has once again found himself in trouble with the law.

He was reportedly found to be in possession of as much as $120,000 […]

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff is happy for his former teammates in the Los Angeles Rams as they head to Super Bowl 56 with Matthew Stafford leading the way. However, he admitted there’s a little bit of pain and regret on what he missed. In an interview with Bally Sports, Goff bared his thoughts on […]

The Detroit Lions haven’t fielded a competitive squad since Jim Caldwell was still the head coach back in 2017. From 2018 on, the Lions’ record is an abysmal 17-46-1, having placed dead last in the NFC North four years in a row. While the team looks a long way from playoff contention, there is still […]

Jared Goff’s first season with the Detroit Lions was about as ugly and forgettable as everyone expected. He led a miserable team to a record of 3-10-1 in his 14 games this season. Not having Sean McVay or a talented supporting cast showed that he needs a good, if not great, situation around him in […]

NFL teams around the league are finalizing their coaching staff’s as the 2022 NFL offseason quickly approaches. Things could get interesting for the Detroit Lions, as they have yet to fill their offensive coordinator position. A rumor has been spreading the team aims to hire former Chicago Bears head coach Matt Nagy. However, somebody within […]

The Detroit Lions had another disappointing season. They went 3-13-1, and only one team had a worse record than them: the 3-14 Jacksonville Jaguars. There are a lot of things that go into the Lions’ struggles this season, including a pretty difficult schedule. They faced playoff teams eight times during the regular season, including the […]

The Detroit Lions are positioned well in the 2022 NFL Draft with the No. 2 pick. General manager Brad Holmes knows that with such a high selection comes some flexibility, both in terms of trades within the draft and outside of the draft. Holmes spoke to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero and revealed a possible trade […]

Amid the serious allegations cast against the NFL in a lawsuit from former Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores, more claims of racial mistreatment during head coach hiring processes have emerged. The latest team involved in the controversy is the Detroit Lions. The agent of former Lions defensive coordinator Teryl Austin alleged on Wednesday that […]

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford got into a bit of a dust-up with Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh during their NFC divisional round clash. Stafford and Suh were teammates for five seasons with the Detroit Lions, but it appears the two aren’t exactly on good terms. Speaking about the pair’s relationship on […]

The Detroit Lions are exactly who we think they are – a team undergoing a full-on rebuild that has young players in a few key spots, but with plenty of holes still left to fill. But heading into the 2022 NFL offseason, any options on the Detroit Lions free agent list should fit into their […]

Any team that wins three games in a season needs some serious work in the offseason, and the Detroit Lions are obviously no exception. It was a long year for rookie head coach Dan Campbell, but this Detroit team certainly had some bright spots throughout the year. The Lions have a decent amount of cap […]

The Detroit Lions picked up their third and final win of the season in their Week 18 game against the Green Bay Packers. That’s right, the Lions came out of the matchup victorious with a final score of 37-30. The high-scoring game was close up until the final quarter, but Detroit surprised Green Bay in […]

The Detroit Lions immediately made a move within their coaching staff following the conclusion of another losing season, as they announced that offensive coordinator Anthony Lynn had been fired. Head coach Dan Campbell, who had hired Lynn before the season began, clearly wasn’t pleased with the former head coach’s performance in the coordinator’s chair, as […]

The Green Bay Packers’ Week 18 ended in a rather shocking note, losing to the Detroit Lions and dropping to 13-4 on the season. This game didn’t affect Green Bay since they had already clinched the one seed and homefield advantage in the NFC. Aaron Rodgers and the Packers starters only played in the first […]

The Green Bay Packers’ Week 18 game against the Detroit Lions was meaningless, and they clearly played like that. Despite the loss not affecting the playoff seeding at all, head coach Matt LaFleur is not happy with the mindset they had. After the Packers suffered their fourth loss of the season, LaFleur shared to reporters […]

There haven’t been too many positives to take away from the Detroit Lions in 2021, but the emergence of Amon-Ra St. Brown should have the fanbase feeling optimistic about the future. The rookie wideout is enjoying a tremendous season and managed to etch his name in Lions history on Sunday. Per Dave Birkett, St. Brown […]

The Detroit Lions are hosting the Green Bay Packers in Week 18 for their regular-season finale. While the historic rivalry dates back generations, Sunday’s game will be pretty special for one particular player. Jamaal Williams spent the first four years of his NFL career in Green Bay before joining the Lions this past offseason. The […]

The Detroit Lions had a forgettable 2021 campaign that looks likely to end as the NFL’s second worst team record-wide. That in of itself is already a marked improvement after the team started 0-8 while staying winless in its first 11 contests until a closely fought win over the Minnesota Vikings in Week 13. It’s […]

Green Bay Packers left tackle David Bakhtiari hasn’t played yet this season because of a torn ACL.

We take a look at this Lions-Packers game with some of our Lions Week 18 predictions in mind. Detroit’s defense has been putrid this […]

The Green Bay Packers have been without left tackle David Bakhtiari since midway through the 2020 season, as the All-Pro lineman has been recovering from a season-ending ACL injury. Green Bay has been cautious with Bakhtiari, though the latest update is a major step towards the star left tackle making his return in Week 18 […]

The Green Bay Packers have clinched the NFC’s top seed and are playing the conference’s worst team, the Detroit Lions, in the final week of the regular season. Surely, they would rest Aaron Rodgers, their MVP-caliber quarterback, in this meaningless game, right? Well, apparently not. Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that Rodgers will start […]

The Green Bay Packers are set to finish off their regular season with a Week 18 matchup against the Detroit Lions. Ahead of the Packers-Lions game, we’ll be making our Packers Week 18 predictions. Already having clinched the No. 1 seed in the NFC and earning a first-round bye in the 2022 NFL Playoffs, the […]

The Green Bay Packers have already clinched the top seed of the NFC standings. They’ll have the bye during Wild Card Weekend, giving them an advantage for their postseason run. Many believe the right decision is to sit the starters in the final week of the season. However, Matt LaFleur has other plans in mind […]

The Detroit Lions were soundly defeated by the Seattle Seahawks, 51-29 in Week 17. The Seahawks played to the very end, seemingly running up the score by leaving their starters in on a long drive to the Lions’ one-yard line with the game already in hand. Lions head coach Dan Campbell was asked about if […]

Pete Carroll’s squad finally appeared to shake off the rust during the Seattle Seahawks Week 17 matchup with the Detroit Lions. Amid what has been an utterly disappointing season in Seattle, the team rallied for arguably their best performance of the season when they took down the Lions. The offense was sharp and while the […]

While this year was always going to be a lost season, the Detroit Lions have certainly made the most of it at certain moments, and their high-scoring loss at the hands of the Seattle Seahawks certainly fits that bill. Facing a 31-7 hole heading into halftime, the Lions fought to make the final result semi-respectable […]

David Bakhtiari has yet to make his season debut for the Green Bay Packers amid what has been a relatively troublesome rehab process on his knee injury. As it turns out, however, the 30-year-old tackle could actually make his highly-anticipated return to action on Sunday when the Packers take on the Detroit Lions in Week […]

Sunday’s dominant 37-10 win over the Minnesota Vikings allowed the Green Bay Packers to officially clinch the top spot in the NFC. The Packers still have one more game remaining in the regular season, but at this point, head coach Matt LaFleur doesn’t sound like he’s going to be resting on his laurels. When asked […]

For Seattle Seahawks star Russell Wilson, the season has been as tough as an overcooked steak. They failed to advance to the NFL Playoffs for only the third time in the last 10 years and it has become clear that Wilson hasn’t truly performed to his level. It’s no coincidence that he’s been the subject […]

Earlier this weekend, it was a real possibility that the Detroit Lions would be without Jared Goff for the second straight week. Those fears became real with Detroit announcing that Goff would be among seven inactive players for the Week 17 showdown against the Seattle Seahawks. #DETvsSEA inactives presented by Henry Ford Health System pic.twitter.com/4n99zGi2uN — […]
