Even when I try to go simple with my bold prediction, it still doesn’t come true. Last week’s prediction was a big ask, despite it being straightforward. This week’s bold prediction might be too much to ask for in this game, but as much as the Detroit Lions are in must-win mode, so am I. […]

NFL officials are fed up with a certain celebration from a few Detroit Lions players on offense. On the St. Brown Podcast, Amon-Ra said refs for their recent matchup against the Los Angeles Rams took issue with their first drive celebration—mimicking picking their nose and flicking the booger away, while mimicking a first down pose.

There’s been an odd trend with the Detroit Lions’ losses this year, and it’s involved running back David Montgomery. In most of those games, he’s been very efficient, but underutilized. Check it out: That has led many to believe that the Lions are doing Montgomery wrong, and it appears—at least to some degree—that Lions coach […]

Another year, another disappointment from the Detroit Lions defense.
