The Detroit Lions ran just eight plays on third down last week, a season low, while gaining most of their yards on first and second down.

The Detroit Lions locker room erupted in joy when veteran Tom Kennedy earned a game ball from head coach Dan Campbell. Kennedy, 29, was signed back in 2019 as an undrafted NFL free agent. His journey in the NFL has been as a journeyman who has spent most of his time on the Lions' practice squad.

The Detroit Lions are right back in the thick of things in the NFC playoff picture, and the Dallas Cowboys are hanging on by a thread. Jahmyr Gibbs scored three touchdowns, Jared Goff threw for 309 yards and a touchdown, and the Detroit defense forced three turnovers in a crucial 44-30 win.

Detroit’s offense is trending upward under Dan Campbell, but NFL writers remain wary of declaring the Lions fully “back.”

The Detroit Lions are expected to break the bank to make sure they keep superstar running back Jahmyr Gibbs with the team for a long time.

The circumstances keep changing. But Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff has remained one of the NFL's top-performing passers this season.

Safeties Kerby Joseph and Brian Branch are out for Sunday's game vs. the Rams, while Shane Zylstra could be back.
