Latest blog entries from Detroit teams across every league
On Saturday, we discussed the most important Detroit Lions players this week in order to come away from Week 7 with a key victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Now it’s time to turn that conversation on its head. The Buccaneers are a really, really solid team that has gone 5-1 to start the year. […]
If you’re a Detroit Lions fan looking for some vindication via officiating from the team’s Week 6 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, you won’t find any after the NFL fines for the week were revealed. Only two players were fined from the Lions/Chiefs game, and neither of them were from Kansas City. Lions defenders […]
The Detroit Lions (4-2) and Tampa Bay Buccaneers (5-1) have declared their injury designations ahead of their NFC battle on “Monday Night Football.” Let’s take a look at the latest injury report and get you up to date with what we know. Note: Any changes from the last injury report will be bolded. Ruled OUT […]
The Detroit Lions (4-2) and Tampa Bay Buccaneers (5-1) will square off in a Week 7 “Monday Night Football” battle between two of the best teams in the NFC. If the Lions want to get back to their winning ways, they’ll need to follow the defensive keys to victory laid out in this week’s Honolulu […]
The Detroit Lions are facing a huge game on Monday night against a really good opponent. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are arguably the best team in football right now, and they’re led by one of the top favorites to win Most Valuable Player this year. But they are so much more than just Baker Mayfield. […]
On Thursday, NFL Films released its latest “NFL Turning Point” video as part of its online video series on ESPN. In an effort to promote the show, NFL Films posted a strange and frankly insulting video centered around recently suspended Detroit Lions safety Brian Branch. A few hours after posting the video, amidst backlash from […]
The Ottawa Senators will have to navigate life without their captain for up to two months as Brady Tkachuk underwent surgery to repair a right thumb injury. Tkachuk left Monday’s 4-1 loss to the Nashville Predators partway through the third period. While the team initially hoped surgery wouldn’t be required, a second opinion proved otherwise….
The Detroit Lions (4-2) and Tampa Bay Buccaneers (5-1) were back on the practice field on Friday, getting some more work in ahead of their upcoming showdown on “Monday Night Football.” After returning Taylor Decker to practice on Thursday, the Lions were able to return Terrion Arnold on Friday, and while things are looking up, […]
The Detroit Lions are back in the prime time spotlight for a tough matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Detroit’s coming off a disappointing loss on the road against the Kansas City Chiefs while battling some injuries on defense. The NFC-leading Bucs are looking red hot at 5-1, but dealing with a Lions team back […]
One of my favorite aspects of the Detroit Lions, since head coach Dan Campbell and general manager Brad Holmes arrived in 2021, is their ability to respond to adversity. Even after a tough loss like the one in Week 6 to the Kansas City Chiefs, you can see the confidence this team has with the […]
October 17th: Evan Petzold of The Detroit Free Press reports that Detroit’s offer after 2024 was for four years and less than $100MM. October 16th: The Tigers are now down to their final season of control over the American League’s best pitcher. Tarik Skubal is entering his last year of arbitration and trending towards the…
With the NFL trade deadline coming up in just a few weeks (November 4), analysts are starting to ramp up their predictions for the trading frenzy. In fact, we’ve already seen a handful of trades in the lead-up to the deadline. Like any team, the Detroit Lions could stand to improve their roster as they […]
It’s Lightning vs. Red Wings tonight at Little Caesars Arena. The Wings come into the game with a three-game win streak. It appears that John Gibson will get a shot at redemption. Really hope the team can play like they have been the last few games. Gibson needs to get his legs under him. It’s a long season and Cam Talbot is 38 years old. For what it’s worth, Mason Appleton skated with Dylan Larkin and Emmitt Finnie at practice on Thursday. A sign that perhaps Lucas Raymond is still heali...
Jon Heyman of the New York Post began stirring up the offseason pot on Thursday with a report claiming that the Tigers and star pitcher were $250M apart in extension talks. While no one doubts Heyman’s assertion that agent Scott Boras wants a contract in the $400-420M range, his claim that the Tigers offered less […]
The Detroit Lions and Tampa Bay Buccaneers will square off in a Week 7 NFC battle on “Monday Night Football.” Lions coach Dan Campbell and Bucs coach Todd Bowles have a long history together, dating back to when Campbell was a player in Dallas. “We’ve got a real good opponent coming in Monday night,” Campbell […]
Another swing and a miss for me in the bold prediction factory. After thinking Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff would throw for over 300 yards and three touchdowns, Goff finished with two touchdowns and only 203 yards last week. That doesn’t mean I have to give up making bold predictions. I’ll get one right this […]
The Washington Wizards got run out of the gym Thursday in their preseason finale, losing 119-98 to the Detroit Pistons at Little Caesars Arena. The Pistons trotted out their projected starting lineup for this one, in a contest that felt like a dress rehearsal for both sides. The Wizards’ starting lineup of Bub Carrington, Alex […]
Earlier this week, the NFL suspended Detroit Lions safety Brian Branch for starting a fight with JuJu Smith-Schuster after their game against the Kansas City Chiefs. On Wednesday, they upheld the suspension when Branch tried to appeal the decision. And on Thursday, NFL Films added insult to injury, posting a weird and insulting video as […]

Red Wings Rumblings Somber yet positive. That’s my vibe today as a fan of the Detroit Red Wings. Somber because we are still waiting to learn more about Lucas Raymond’s health. He left the game Monday with an upper-body injury after taking a heavy hit right on the boards. Didn’t look great, but he was able to move his arm afterward FWIW. No practice yesterday, so we’ll find out more later today. UPDATE: Lucas Raymond skated at practice . Coach says he’s out tonight and is considered ...
The Detroit Tigers were eliminated from the postseason just five days ago, but MLB news piles up quickly in October. There’s enough to fill a weeks worth of posts. While the Brewers-Dodgers and the Mariners-Blue Jays continue to battle it out for trips to the World Series, let’s run through some of the biggest news […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers wrapped up the preseason with a 118-110 win over the Detroit Pistons. Now, nothing stands between them and the regular season. But before we get there, let’s see what we can glean from this last dress rehearsal. The drought is over, as was indicated by head coach Kenny Atkinson’s water-soaked quarter zip […]
Kenny Atkinson finally picked up his first preseason win with the Cleveland Cavaliers, beating the Detroit Pistons 118-100. It feels good to be done with the preseason with real basketball on the horizon. Grades are based on our usual expectations for each player. Lonzo Ball 9 points (3-5 shooting), 9 assists, 4 rebounds, 3 blocks, […]
The Maple Leafs’ stars woke up offensively, and their depth scoring continued to chip in as they lit up the Nashville Predators for seven (two empty-netters) on Tuesday night. The Leafs largely carried over their five-on-five ascendancy from the final 40 minutes of the Red Wings game in the first period of play. They’re more […] The post Game Review: Maple Leafs’ stars roar to life offensively in 7-4 win over Nashville appeared first on Maple Leafs Hotstove .
