NFL Power Rankings Don’t Give the Detroit Lions Much Respect

  Everybody will agree that Matthew Stafford had a rocky opening for week one. There were three interceptions (and almost a fourth one), which cost the Detroit Lions some points. But as much as people are crying about how much he stunk it up, look what he DID do. He was the yardage leader for [...]

Which Matthew Stafford Will Come Out to Play Sunday?

Matthew Stafford and the Detroit Lions had a remarkable roller coaster of a game last week. They started out beautifully, riding high up in the sky with a beautiful first series. Then Stafford was picked off. Then he was picked off again. And again. It was a typical game if you have been a Lions [...]

The Detroit Lions Shocked at Halftime

The Detroit Lions caught the ball in the endzone to start the game and opted not to run it, but take the field at the 20 yard line. What followed was 70+ yards of beauty by Matthew Stafford. His offensive plays were not to his favorite Calvin Johnson, which everyone suspected. Johnson did have one [...]

Detroit Lions vs St. Louis Rams Week 1 Preview

Week one shows the Detroit Lions playing the St. Louis Rams at Ford Field. Now, both teams have had a checkered past when it comes to success, so you can insert any number of jokes here. For instance, the Kittens vs the Ewes play on Sunday afternoon. The Cats and the Sheep will battle it out [...]

Jahvid Best Wants to Get on the Field for the Detroit Lions ASAP

Louis Delmas and Chris Houston Absent from Detroit Lions Practice

Practice on Wednesday still proved to be a little light in the secondary for the Detroit Lions. Louis Delmas and Chris Houston were not practicing in the morning portion on Wednesday. Since they weren’t in the a.m. practice, the chance for them taking part in the afternoon portion were slim too. Delmas’ knee surgery has [...]

The Detroit Lions Might Make History Sunday With Female Referee

The Detroit Lions are set to make history this Sunday in their season opener against the St. Louis Rams. It isn’t because of attendance or even because it is against a championship team. History will be made if the regular season referees and the NFL don’t reach an agreement because one of the replacement refs [...]

The Detroit Lions Release Ricardo Silva, Officially Sign Drayton Florence

The Detroit Lions have made some Labor Day transactions to bolster their roster.

Practice Squad for the Detroit Lions Full

There aren’t any more openings left on the Detroit Lions practice squad for 2012. Seven of the eight positions were accounted for Sunday afternoon, but not all officially signed for.

Detroit Lions 2012 Roster

The Detroit Lions have made their final cuts of the preseason and trimmed the roster down to 53 players. For now, the roster looks to be set. There weren’t any big surprises, just a few minor ones. Like the fact that Kellen Moore stayed on as the 3rd string quarterback. It makes one wonder why [...]
