Lions vs. Rams bold prediction: Detroit pulls off the upset
Another bold prediction not coming true. While it wasn’t the biggest whiff I’ve had this year, only missing it by six points, it’s still a miss. This week, I am going with a simple prediction that might not seem bold, but given the circumstances, it isn’t something people expect. This week the Detroit Lions go […]

The Detroit Lions (8-5) and Los Angeles Rams (10-3) were back on the practice field on Thursday and have updated their injury reports based on the latest participation levels.

6 takeaways from Detroit Lions coordinators: Life without Brian Branch, top TEs
On Thursday, Detroit Lions coordinators met with the media to discuss the Cowboys win and the upcoming game against the Los Angeles Rams. Topics this week ranged from how to stay disciplined when Matthew Stafford is trying to manipulate the defense, how Detroit has adjusted to the loss of tight ends and Brian Branch, and […]
Detroit Lions ‘ecstatic’ for Tom Kennedy, plan to keep him as kick returner
When Kalif Raymond went down with an ankle injury in the Detroit Lions’ Week 12 win over the New York Giants, it appeared they had lost one of their biggest weapons on special teams. While this hasn’t been Raymond’s best year, he’s a two-time All Pro and even had a punt return touchdown earlier this […]
5 Qs: Lions vs. Rams preview: Why Matthew Stafford is having best year of his career
One month of football remains for the majority of the league, but for those teams good enough—or lucky enough to play in an uncompetitive division—there’s a chance to continue their 2025 season beyond the Gregorian calendar. This week, we had the pleasure of connecting with Evan Craig from Turf Show Times, to give us some […]
NFL Week 15 staff picks: Moneyline, spread, over/under predictions
We’re just two weeks away from Saint Nick dropping by your home to spread Christmas cheer—and a gentle reminder to re-up your Netflix subscription so you can watch what the NFL has to offer. But until then, we can watch football as our forefathers intended: broadcast across local TV stations from coast to coast. As […]
Why the Detroit Lions present unique challenge to Rams’ offense
One of the bigger narratives surrounding the Los Angeles Rams’ explosive offense is their newfound love of 13 personnel—one running back, three tight end sets. The Rams almost never used 13 personnel under head coach Sean McVay—only 84 times during McVay’s first nine seasons. But this year, the Rams lead the NFL in plays with […]

Discussion: Where do you want the Detroit Lions’ 2026 international game to be played?
According to a report from the Detroit Free Press, the Detroit Lions have been informed that they will play an international game in 2026. The news comes as little surprise considering new NFL rules will require teams to play a game in a different country every eight years, and the Lions haven’t done so since […]
Report: Detroit Lions will play international game in 2026
The Detroit Lions are going global. According to Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press, the Detroit Lions have been informed that they will play an international game in the 2026 NFL season. At this point, it’s unclear where the Lions will play, but the NFL has already announced that there will be international games […]
Lions add veteran safety, waive another TE
The Detroit Lions continue to churn the bottom of the roster as they adjust to injuries. On Wednesday, they announced that they’ve claimed veteran safety Jalen Mills off waivers (from the Texans) and waived tight end Hayden Rucci in a corresponding move. As a defensive back at LSU, Mills was drafted by the Eagles in […]
Lions, Rams Week 15 injury news: 6 return, starting LB misses practice
The Detroit Lions (8-5) and Los Angeles Rams (10-3) have declared their initial Week 15 injury reports as they prepare to square off in an NFC showdown. With this game being played on a Sunday, the Lions’ practice schedule is back on its regular timeline: Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, with designations happening after the third […]
Frank Ragnow ‘has plenty in him’ to play, Lions’ door remains open
On Wednesday, Detroit Lions offensive line coach Hank Fraley offered a little more insight into the crazy week that included Frank Ragnow coming out of retirement only to go back into retirement upon failing his physical. The All-Pro center was revealed to have had a Grade 3 hamstring spain that would have prevented him from […]
Christian Mahogany returns to practice, starts injury evaluation clock
The Detroit Lions could be getting an important piece of their offensive line back soon, as starting left guard Christian Mahogany has returned to practice, which starts his 21-day injury evaluation clock. In Week 9 against the Vikings, Mahogany suffered a lower leg injury after his leg swung into a defender, forcing him from the […]
Lions EDGE Al-Quadin Muhammad wins NFC DPOW
Another Detroit Lions player has won weekly honors from the NFL, but not one you’d normally think of. After his three-sack performance against the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday night, Al-Quadin Muhammad has been named NFC Defensive Player of the Year. It’s the fourth time a Lions player has been named Player of the Week, with […]
With a month remaining, what’s your confidence level in the Lions?
Each week, SB Nation tracks NFL fans’ confidence levels of their favorite teams with their Reacts Surveys posted on their team websites. For Pride of Detroit, we are tasked with gauging Detroit Lions fans’ confidence in the team heading into each game. Through the Lions’ first ten games, we’ve seen some expected fluctuations, as well […]
Discussion: Which Detroit Lions player would you pull out of retirement?
On Tuesday, the Indianapolis Colts signed quarterback Philip Rivers, who had been in retirement for five years and was a semifinalist for the Pro Football Hall of Fame for the 2026 class. The 44-year-old quarterback could very well be the reason the Colts—at 8-5 but without starter Daniel Jones for the rest of the season—make […]
Detroit Lions scouting report: The Los Angeles Rams are a complete team
So we meet again, Matthew Stafford. The former Detroit Lions starting quarterback faces his former team for the fourth time in five years in Week 15. In the first matchup back in 2021, the Los Angeles Rams won 28-19, but since then, Stafford hasn’t defeated his former team. The Lions beat the Rams in the […]
Report: Detroit Lions position coach being poached by Iowa State
The Detroit Lions’ 2025 coaching staff is already starting to get picked apart. According to a report from Dave Birkett, Lions tight ends coach Tyler Roehl is being hired as the next offensive coordinator for Iowa State. The team has not yet announced the hire. Roehl is just a year removed from being the Cyclones’ […]
Detroit Lions re-sign CB Arthur Maulet, waive TE
The Detroit Lions announced on Tuesday that they have re-signed cornerback Arthur Maulet to the 53-man roster and waived tight end Ross Dwelley to make room for him. Maulet signed to the Lions’ practice squad back in early October, and when the injury bug hit at cornerback, he got some significant playing time. Most notably, […]
NFL Week 15 power rankings: Are the Lions a top 10 team?
The Detroit Lions (8-5) got back in the win column, convincingly beating a hot Dallas Cowboys team by two touchdowns. But was that enough to sway voters to put the Lions back inside their top-10 rankings? Let’s take a look at how things shook out in this week’s power rankings. The Ringer: 5 (Previous rank: […]
How Detroit Lions’ playoff, NFC North odds changed in Week 14
It’s not hyperbole to say the Detroit Lions saved their season with a Thursday night win over the Dallas Cowboys. Had they lost that game, their only likely path to the postseason would be to finish the year going 4-0 against a moderately tough schedule. Instead, the Lions have a little wiggle room. Detroit can […]
Detroit Lions plan to play rookie G Miles Frazier vs. Rams
On Monday, Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell showed some reservations about playing rookie guard Miles Frazier this week after the 2025 fifth-round pick got his first NFL action last week against the Dallas Cowboys. However, during Campbell’s weekly radio appearance on Tuesday, he seemed to suggest the Lions will continue to the guard rotation this […]
Lions News: Detroit Lions break another TV ratings record
The exciting Detroit Lions victory over the Dallas Cowboys this past week drew the highest number of viewers since Prime Video began hosting “Thursday Night Football.” The matchup drew a record-setting 19.39 million viewers—the highest since Prime Video took over TNF in 2022.
