Detroit Lions trade deadline quick thoughts: So what’s the OL plan?
It was an uneventful Tuesday for the Detroit Lions, as the NFL trade deadline came and went without the Lions getting involved. The move shouldn’t come as much of a surprise given Lions coach Dan Campbell said last week that he didn’t expect the team to make a move. “I love where we’re at. I […]

Detroit Lions Week 9 stock report: 12 fallers, 4 risers vs. Vikings
Not to be hyperbolic, but the Detroit Lions’ 27–24 loss to the Minnesota Vikings might go down as the most surprisingly unprepared and disappointing efforts of the Dan Campbell era.

Detroit Lions coach Dan Campbell provided mostly optimistic injury updates for the team’s offensive line.
