Detroit Lions return Giovanni Manu to practice, want him ready for 2026
The Detroit Lions have begun the 21-day evaluation clock for offensive tackle Giovanni Manu. The second-year offensive tackle has been on injured reserve since Week 5 with a knee injury, but it appears he’s healthy enough to return to practice. He was officially listed as limited in practice on Wednesday ahead of the team’s game […]

The Detroit Lions (8-6) and Pittsburgh Steelers (8-6) have declared their initial Week 16 injury reports as they prepare to face off in Week 16. Both teams are dealing with a few key injuries, especially on the defensive side of the ball. Let’s take a look at the latest injury report and get you up […]
Mailbag: Is there hope in the future of the Detroit Lions defense?
Another year, another disappointment from the Detroit Lions defense. While the season isn’t over and there’s time for the unit to rebound down the stretch—particularly against at least two teams struggling on offense—it’s clear Detroit’s defense has not lived up to expectation for yet another season. And as pointed out by one of our listeners, […]
Detroit Lions scouting report: Pittsburgh Steelers strengths, weaknesses
Well, here we are. It’s the middle of December, and the Detroit Lions’ playoff hopes are roughly 35 percent, depending on where you look. The biggest thing the team must do in these final three weeks is win out, but that’s easier said than done. Detroit needs a little help along the way, but when […]
With 3 must-win games 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. The Lions dropped another tough one in Week 15 to arguably the best […]
Detroit Lions lose 1 DB from practice squad, add another
The Detroit Lions made a notable change on their practice squad, partially out of necessity. The Tennessee Titans signed Lions defensive back Erick Hallett off the team’s practice squad, and the Lions responded by adding cornerback Keenan Garber. Losing Hallett is notable, as he started Sunday’s game against the Los Angeles Rams at safety. With […]
Detroit Lions film review: Why run game has been inconsistent
For several years now, so much of the Detroit Lions’ identity as a team has come from how they run the football. It is a philosophy that has been etched into the minds of everyone around the organization since the first days of the Dan Campbell and Brad Holmes era. Both in 2023 and 2024, […]
NFL Week 16 power rankings: Doubts creep in as Lions’ playoffs hopes narrow
The Detroit Lions (8-6) have their backs against the wall following their Week 15 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, and now likely will have to win their final three games in order to have a chance at the NFL playoffs. The Lions had a chance to pull off the win over the top-ranked Rams, […]
The Detroit Lions could be eliminated from playoffs with unlikely Week 16 scenario
The Detroit Lions are on the verge of missing the playoffs. They almost certainly have to win their remaining three games, and if they do, their odds are actually incredibly high. Per the New York Times, just by winning their last three games, their playoff odds jump to 94-95 percent. Even if the Lions lose […]
Can the Detroit Lions’ season be saved?
The Detroit Lions’ loss to the Los Angeles Rams feels like the last slip-up this team can afford. While there are unlikely paths for Detroit to get in with a 2-1 finish in their last three games, the reality is Detroit almost certainly needs to win out, and even if they do, there’s a small […]
Detroit Lions stock report: 6 risers, 17 fallers vs. Rams
For a few brief moments—when Aidan Hutchinson’s red-zone interception immediately turned into a Jared Goff strike to Amon-Ra St. Brown on the very next play, or when Goff hit Jameson Williams for a 31-yard touchdown to briefly take a 24–14 lead late in the second quarter—it finally felt like this Lions team had rediscovered its […]
Detroit Lions’ playoff odds remain reasonable despite Rams loss
The Detroit Lions’ loss to the Los Angeles Rams certainly made a dent in their opportunity to make the playoffs. By some estimations, a win would have put the Lions’ odds well over 60% to make the playoffs—despite the fact that they would be still be in the eighth seed after Week 15. Now those […]
Discussion: What is the Detroit Lions’ biggest problem, how do you fix it?
If there’s anything that Sunday’s loss to the Los Angeles Rams made clear, it’s that the Detroit Lions are probably not included in the top tier of NFL teams right now. In fact, when you look at their overall schedule right now, the only wins over a team currently in a playoff spot are their […]
Dolphins at Steelers, Week 15 MNF fan discussion
Week 15 comes to a close with a “Monday Night Football” matchup featuring the Miami Dolphins (6-7) and the Pittsburgh Steelers (7-6). The Dolphins are riding a four-game win streak and trying to claw their way back into playoff contention, while the Steelers are trying to hold onto their lead in the AFC North. The […]
Lions injury news: Dan Campbell gives hopeful update on Amik Robertson
The Detroit Lions came out of their game against the Los Angeles Rams relatively unscathed when it comes to their injury situation, but the biggest concern was for cornerback Amik Robertson. The Lions’ veteran cornerback left the game early with a hand injury, leaving Detroit’s already-thin secondary even more shorthanded. On Monday, Lions coach Dan […]
Detroit Lions report card: Poor play calls, flailing defense cost game vs. Rams
We often like to play the blame game after a Detroit Lions loss, but in their 41-34 defeat at the hands of the Los Angeles Rams, there is not just one finger to point. Detroit had their struggles on both sides of the ball. The offense stalled dramatically at the worst possible time, and the […]
Lions, Rams Week 15 snap counts: Legion of Whom sequel not as good as original
The Detroit Lions (8-6) dropped a tough game to the Los Angeles Rams in Week 15, putting them in a precarious situation with just three games remaining in the regular season. With Detroit likely needing to win out to keep their playoff hopes alive, let’s take a look at how the Lions adjusted to all […]
Notes: Reactions to the controversial TD in Lions-Rams
Many fans were left disgruntled over yet another controversial call in a Detroit Lions game. In the Lions’ 41-34 loss to the Rams in Los Angeles on Sunday afternoon, every single point mattered. So when a controversial touchdown call late in the third quarter popped up, many were quick to cry foul. Rams tight end […]
Explaining Lions coach Dan Campbell’s denied challenge vs. Rams
An odd coaching and officiating sequence happened in the first quarter of the Detroit Lions’ loss to the Los Angeles Rams. After the Rams completed a 23-yard pass all the way down the Lions’ 3-yard line, Detroit head coach Dan Campbell threw a challenge flag. It was an odd choice, because there didn’t seem to […]
Discussion: Are the Detroit Lions good enough to win out?
The loss to the Los Angeles Rams was not an unexpected outcome, but that does not make it an easy pill to swallow for the Detroit Lions. The Lions sit at 8-6 on the season with three games left to play and things are dire. The odds of making the playoffs sit below 50 percent, […]

The Detroit Lions (8-6) and Pittsburgh Steelers (7-6) will square off in a Week 16 interdivisional battle between two teams with NFL playoff aspirations. While we know the outcome of the Lions’ Week 15 game, the Steelers have yet to play—they take on the Miami Dolphins on “Monday Night Football”—but that won’t prevent the sports […]

The margin of error is gone. The Detroit Lions were facing a tough task against the Los Angeles Rams, and the NFC West titan showed why they are presently a Super Bowl favorite.

In their fourth matchup since the 2021 trade, the Detroit Lions and Los Angeles Rams faced off in another close game.
