Official 2025-2026 Detroit Lions Thread.

We had questions about oline. They’ve been answered already. Gonna be rough especially with having a QB thats a statue

No questions are answered in week 1. Y'all gotta relax. O lines are units. Them nikkas gotta grow together. If it still looks like this into week 5 then I agree. But I ain't bout to flip out over a weak game 1 showing with 2 rookies and losing an all pro in the middle. I'm willing to give them time to gel.

Ya'll look like absolute dog shyt, week 1 or not.


@Piff Perkins 200 rushing yard against our "weak" defense u said

Not right now but honestly, this is what I expected when we lost defensive coordinator and offensive coordinator (Araon Glenn and Ben Johnson)

It happens. Teams come picking u apart when u have elite staff members(we gonna lose our DC probably next season). Window to winning in the NFL is thin as paper. Last year was yall chance.

Not understanding all this Packers hype. Even before the Parsons trade they are being predicted to be better than Lions based on nothing. They were 1-5 in division last year

WR core still not good, Unless they think Golden is a day one superstar. Jacobs a workhorse but a year older. RBs fall off over night generally. Love is still an INT machine. Lafluer has not done well against Campbell in his career. Campbell 6-2 vs GB and 3-0 in lambeau

Packers added Parsons but we are getting Hutchinson back who missed both GB games last year. Davenport healthy. Kenny Clark has always played well against Lions. Packers small as hell up the middle now. Gibbs and Montgomery gonna eat. Parsons a monster pass rusher but too light to hold up in run game

Lions only worry is the oline play. Glasgow is biggest question mark but he's a much better Center than Guard. Mahogany looked like stud last year whenever he played. Ratledge has been praised throughout camp. Sewell one of the best but Decker getting up there in age. No clue how good they will still be

Ben Johnson being gone will be biggest upgrade. Boy genius coached way too cute. No reason for the tricky shyt when your offense is as stacked as Lions were. And While AG was a great leader, his in game coaching was suspect. Hopefully Shepperd imprints his own identity on defense.

Prediction
Lions 35
Packers 14

I have no problem admitting when Im wrong

Still not impressed by Packers. This was horrific performance by Lions. Knew oline would take a step back but not this much

The zero mobility from QB position is a killer. Goff is gonna have a terrible year.

it’s go be long season brehs, you already see the effect of the Lions not having Ben or Aaron. Our offense looks so stagnant. O line don’t look as strong. We better figure it out soon or it’s go be a long ass season my det brothers

Its the vets that were bad though. Which is most concerning. Decker and Glasgow look bad. They are both older players that are past their prime. Goff without an elite oline is not a good QB

Holy shyt TeSlaa

Not going to blame coaching yet. Defense gave offense a chance to get back in game. Just offense gave them nothing. But Ragnow was arguably the best C in football and Zeitler was a probowler. Glaring difference in talent and experience

Crazy catch by Teslaa

I’m hope I’m wrong but I got a feeling we go lose our 1st 3 games

 

[manyfaces]

Seriously, they need to find a way to force this kid on the field and getting him the ball. His hands are fukking unreal and he athletic as fukk.

Again, o lines are most effective as they feel together as a unit. I feel like it's the most communication and having dependency on the guy next to you unit on the field. Individual talent matters of course, but you can still even exploit that with movement confusing the unit. They got some shyt to figure out, but the sky ain't falling

 

[Piff Perkins]

Only positive takeaway is the defense settled in after halftime. And that TeSlaa TD. Outside of that...complete disaster. Offense gave me flashbacks to when Lombardi was the OC and we had those ridiculously long routes. Nothing was open. Even when we switched back to play action in the second half and moved the ball a bit we still couldn't finish.

I'm stunned.
