Detroit Lions fans pick winner of Lions vs. Jets in Week 3

Earlier this week, we published our latest SB Nation Reacts survey, sponsored by the folks at FanDuel Sportsbook, and asked Detroit Lions fans two questions: Confidence plummeted after the Week 2 loss to the Bills, and for the first time in the Dan Campbell era, fewer than half of Lions fans feel confident the organization […]

Detroit Lions vs. New York Jets Week 3 preview: Madden 27 Sim

Does Madden 27 have any true predictive power when it comes to real NFL games? Based on my experience, the answer is almost certainly no. Madden is crazy, random, and illogical so many times that we run our Madden sims that no one should be taking these seriously. But for the first two weeks of […]

Discussion: Who will be the Detroit Lions’ MVP vs. the Jets?

The Detroit Lions will be the first to tell you that good, fundamentally sound football requires the effort and skill of 11 players working in harmony. That was painfully obvious last Thursday night, when just about every play had one or two players not doing their assignment, and it made the entire team look disjointed […]

Lions, Jets injury designations: Starting OL expected to play in Week 3

The Detroit Lions and New York Jets have declared their injury designations ahead of their Week 3 matchup at Ford Field, and while the Lions have three starting offensive linemen on the injury list, all three are expected to play on Sunday. Note: Any changes from the most recent injury report will be bolded. Ruled […]

What do the Detroit Lions need to show vs. the New York Jets?

After a prolonged period of time where everyone had to stew on a tough loss at the hands of the Buffalo Bills in Week 2, the Detroit Lions are back at home this week where they will be hosting the New York Jets. And while the first order of business for Detroit will certainly be […]

Before the Roar: Previewing Detroit Lions vs. New York Jets

Now that it feels like it has been close to a month since last Thursday, it’s time for the Detroit Lions to get back on that horse in a Week 3 matchup where they will be hosting the New York Jets. Familiar faces abound, with Jets coach Aaron Glenn and defensive coordinator Brian Duker making […]

Lions vs. Jets predictions: 4 keys to victory in Week 3

The Detroit Lions (1-1) and New York Jets (1-1) will square off in a Week 3 battle as coach Dan Campbell welcomes back his protégé, Aaron Glenn, to Ford Field for the first time since the former defensive coordinator left for the Big Apple. “Our players know exactly what’s coming in here because the defensive […]

Detroit Lions vs. New York Jets preview, prediction: On Paper

The Detroit Lions are looking for a rebound this Sunday after a pretty sound defeat at the hands of the Buffalo Bills. Prior to the start of the 2026 season, Week 3 against a New York Jets team that finished 3-14 last year looked like an easy win. But Aaron Glenn has the Jets inches […]

Lions vs. Jets preview: 3 key matchups

Dan Campbell’s Detroit Lions and Aaron Glenn’s New York Jets face off in Week 3 at Ford Field, both hungry to put their respective Week 2 losses in the rearview mirror. Glenn has the Jets playing more competitively to start the 2026 season after a rough first season. It is not hard to see how […]

NFL crackdown on celebrations hits Detroit Lions, Amon-Ra St. Brown hard

On Thursday, it was revealed that 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk received a $14,926 fine for his “juice” celebration of what appears to be a cracking-of-a-beer motion followed by drinking it. A few hours later, Adam Schefter revealed that Colts guard Matt Goncalves was fined $8,847 for imitating chugging a beer. Well, the Detroit Lions may […]

6 takeaways from Detroit Lions coordinators: Kelvin Sheppard talks explosives

On Thursday, the Detroit Lions coordinators met with the media for their weekly press conferences. It was a highly-anticipated day, particularly for defensive coordinator Kelvin Sheppard, who has come under plenty of fire after Detroit’s defense has allowed 71 points through two games. Here are my six takeaways from Thursday’s media sessions, two from each […]

Lions Week 3 preview: Breaking down Jets’ offensive, defensive schemes

The Detroit Lions and New York Jets will square off at Ford Field in Week 3, as Jets head coach Aaron Glenn returns to Ford Field for the first time since his days as the Lions defensive coordinator. After a disappointing initial season in New York, Glenn revamped his coaching staff and roster, and the […]

5 Qs Lions vs. Jets preview: Big game from Amon-Ra St. Brown incoming?

Reunited and it feels… nostalgic. This week, we had the pleasure of connecting with MacGregor Wells, the Deputy Manager for Gang Green Nation, to give us some insight into who these New York Jets are through two weeks. We learned how Jets fans are still very much in a “wait and see” moment with this […]

Why Lions WR Isaac TeSlaa has limited targets, and when that will change

Through two games, Detroit Lions receiver Isaac TeSlaa has just six targets and two catches—one being a garbage time conversion on fourth-and-18 while down 17 points with about two minutes left. Given how much draft capital the Lions have spent on the second-year receiver, some fans have expressed frustration with his lack of production. On […]

Discussion: Should the Detroit Lions re-sign RB Jamaal Williams?

On Wednesday, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press dropped an article revealing that former Detroit Lions running back Jamaal Williams is attempting to make a comeback in the NFL after being out of the league in 2025. Williams told Birkett that he called up Lions coach Dan Campbell about a possible reunion with the […]

Detroit Lions fill 53-man roster spot with practice squad promotion

The Detroit Lions’ 53-man roster is back to a full 53 players after the team announced two internal moves on Wednesday. Center Seth McLaughlin signed from the practice squad to the 53-man roster, and the team backfilled his spot on the practice squad by re-signing linebacker Joe Bachie. This is all the result of a […]

Detroit Lions mailbag: What shakeups are coming on defense?

Changes are coming for the Detroit Lions defense. After giving up the second-most points through two weeks and having an extended weekend to diagnose their problems, Lions coach Dan Campbell promised changes were coming. “We’re going to do a couple of things defensively. We’re going to move some guys around,” Campbell said Monday. “We’re going […]

Free agent RB Jamaal Williams contacted Detroit Lions about a reunion

Jamaal Williams was one of the most beloved players for the Detroit Lions during his two-year stint with the team from 2021-22. His energy was palpable, he showed leadership in times of strife, and he was also pretty dang good, rushing for 17 touchdowns in 2022—a franchise high at the time. He left Detroit after […]

Detroit Lions scouting report: Jets are improved, but by how much?

With an embarrassing performance on “Thursday Night Football,” the Detroit Lions turn the page and shift their attention to the New York Jets. Lions head coach Dan Campbell has faced his former offensive coordinator in Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson, winning both games, and now he’s facing off against former defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn. […]

Survey: Will the Lions beat the Jets in Week 3?

Throughout the offseason, SB Nation will host NFL fan surveys, sponsored by FanDuel Sportsbook. For Pride of Detroit, we are tasked with fielding questions from Detroit Lions fans, and as we head into Week 3 of the 2026 NFL season, we have two questions for fans this week: After a disappointing game against the Bills, […]

Detroit Lions poach rookie safety off Steelers practice squad

The Detroit Lions have signed defensive back Bishop Fitzgerald off of the Pittsburgh Steelers practice squad and onto their 53-man roster. To make move for the Fitzgerald, the Lions have released veteran linebacker Joe Bachie. Lions coach Dan Campbell telegraphed this move on Monday, noting that the team needed both a shakeup in the secondary […]
