Latest blog entries from Detroit teams across every league
Earlier this week, we published our latest SB Nation Reacts surveys, brought to you by the folks over at FanDuel Sportsbook, asking Detroit Lions fans two questions: As for our weekly survey, things have risen back to pre-season expectations. This year, we’ve seen a few dips in confidence following the Lions’ two losses. But after a convincing win […]
The Calgary Flames are not waiting around. With the league’s worst goals per game and a 1.5 clip dragging them to the bottom of the table, general manager Craig Conroy has begun working the phones for immediate offensive help. It is early, and most clubs are still in wait mode, yet Calgary is pushing to get an early read on what is available and what it might cost. LeBrun on Insider Trading says Leafs, Detroit, Florida, Buffalo and the Flames have all checked in and kicked tires on Yegor...
We’re pretty close to the halfway point in the 2025 NFL season, and your Detroit Lions are pretty close to expectations at their Week 8 bye. For example, way back in May, Erik Schlitt and I made 2025 Lions game-by-game predictions right after the schedule came out. Both of us had the Lions at 5-2 […]

Wait, the Green Bay Packers went down?! I mean, it wasn’t the best win ever, but it was still a win, right? Yes, it was, and the Packers are still third overall, which is very good! But it wasn’t the most convincing win while the Lions were beating the stuffings out of a good, fun […]
It seems impossible that the Detroit Tigers would actually do it. A team that is a true World Series contender should never consider such a thing. Despite it lacking all common sense and defies instincts of self preservation, there apparently is a chance that the best pitcher in baseball, the soon-to-be 29-year-old left-handed flame-thrower Tarik […]
Before the 2025 NFL season got underway, there was a lot of chatter about how difficult the Detroit Lions’ schedule looked. At least on paper and before any real football had been played, it appeared daunting. However, as we know, things can change fast in the NFL, and while some of the games to come […]
With the Detroit Lions on break this week, we felt it was as good a time as any to check in on some former Lions who are playing elsewhere. The purpose of this is to check in on some players we were fans of last year, and also to determine if Detroit made the right […]
After getting beaten on the road by a bottom-of-the-barrel Buffalo Sabres squad on Wednesday, the Detroit Red Wings (5-3-0) looked unenthusiastic and, honestly, played their worst game of the season in a 7-2 loss against the Patrick Roy-coached New York Islanders (4-3-0) Thursday night at UBS Arena in Belmont, New York. Similar to their start in Buffalo, the Wings struggled to get shots on goal against goaltender David Rittich and found themselves down 2-0 entering the first intermission ...
In the story that refuses to completely die, the NFL tried to provide a little more clarity on the operation of a ruling during the Detroit Lions’ Week 6 game against the Kansas City Chiefs. The controversy in question has less to do about the call on the field and more to do with whether […]
The culmination of the 2025 Major League Baseball season is here, with the Los Angeles Dodgers taking on the Toronto Blue Jays for this year’s World Series title. Of course, the Detroit Tigers were a part of the postseason action, but they faltered in the ALDS against the Seattle Mariners in a white-knuckle five-game series. […]
After years of this being the “Cade Cunningham vs. Jalen Green” game, it’s now a game between two young teams hungry to advance past the first round of the playoffs. Both teams come into the game 0-1 and desperate to get into the win column. Detroit’s offseason wasn’t loud, but demonstrated their belief in Cunningham […]
The Detroit Lions are on their bye week, but I’m sure many of the players will be locked in to “Thursday Night Football” from home. That’s because the Lions face off against the Minnesota Vikings next week, their first game against their NFC North foe. Why not do a little early scouting for a big […]
The Detroit Lions’ secondary was the story of the game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. With starting cornerbacks D.J. Reed and Terrion Arnold sidelined, along with starting safeties Brian Branch and Kerby Joseph also out, not many give Detroit’s “no-named” defensive backs much of a chance to stop Baker Mayfield and the Bucs offense, which […]
Tonight is officially listed as a home game for Edmonton, but it feels like part of an eight-game road trip. The Oilers played the Rangers, Islanders, Devils, Red Wings, and Senators on the road, and they host the Canadiens tonight before playing in Seattle and Vancouver this coming Saturday and Sunday. It’s an odd one-game…
Awards season is close. The Detroit Tigers already had the likely AL Cy Young award returning to ace left-hander Tarik Skubal. Catcher Dillon Dingler has a solid shot at a Gold Glove. On Thursday, outfielder Riley Greene and utilityman Zach McKinstry were named by Louisville Slugger as the Tigers’ Silver Slugger finalists at their respective […]
A few months into the season, Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Kelvin Sheppard is quickly becoming known for his infectious, run-through-a-brick-wall energy on the sidelines. It’s that type of explosive fire that sets him apart from former DC Aaron Glenn, explains Amik Robertson. “I think Shep is a little more passionate … He understands me a […]
The New Orleans Saints are set to face their first divisional opponent of the 2025 NFL season this weekend when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers visit the Big Easy. Both teams are coming off big losses as the Saints fell to the Bears and the Bucs fell to the Lions. The NFC South foe will be […]
Former Detroit Lions cornerback Jerry Jacobs was one of the most beloved players in the early days of the Dan Campbell era. The undrafted talent out of Arkansas beat a ton of odds just to make it onto an NFL roster, including starting out his college career at Hutchinson Community College. With Detroit, his gritty […]

With the Detroit Lions at the bye week, now is a good time to reflect upon the first seven weeks of the season. A 5-2 start is right about where expectations were for this team, despite a tough-looking schedule to start the season. It hasn’t looked exactly as we expected, though. The Lions offense has […]
A fair bushel of Islanders news came out in the day between mid-week games, before the Islanders host the Red Wings tonight. David Rittich gets the start tonight before Ilya Sorokin (more on him later) returns to the net for Saturday afternoon in Philly. First Islanders Goal picks for tonight go here.

With Detroit Lions safety Brian Branch coming off the reserve/suspended list this week, the team needed to create a roster spot to accommodate his return to the 53-man roster. That move comes with some bad news. The Lions have officially placed veteran linebacker Zach Cunningham on injured reserve. Cunningham returned to the lineup on Monday […]
