A blowout victory was just what the Detroit Lions needed to right the ship.
The difference between this week versus the Washington Commanders and last week versus the Minnesota Vikings was night and day. The week prior, little was working with the Lions offense. Jared Goff was under duress for most of the night and was sacked five times. The running backs faltered heavily, with Jahmyr Gibbs having arguably the worst game of his short-yet-stellar career. The team was 5-for-17 on third down attempts, many of which were third-and-long. During one stretch of the game, the Lions went punt, punt,...

The best cure for a blowout is to deliver one yourself.
The Detroit Lions held no quarter against the Washington Commanders on Sunday, blowing out the home team 44-22. The game was never close, with Detroit taking the lead early and running away with it. Even on the odd occasion when Washington scored, the Lions would answer right back—they finished the day having scored points on every full drive.
Such an offensive turnaround will help silence the voices of concern after a rough loss to the Minnesota Vikings the week prior. However, how the Lions turned around their offense could...

After an early-season lull to the Detroit Lions’ offense, coach Dan Campbell opted to take over the head-calling reins from offensive coordinator John Morton for the team’s Week 10 matchup against the Washington Commanders. The results were undeniable. While the Commanders’ defense is not amongst the league’s best, Detroit still put up their best offensive output of the year. They finished with a season-high 546 yards, put up 44 points, and scored on every drive other than the final possession that ended the game.
After the 44-22 victory, Campbell explained why he made the move—and how Morton was still very...

These are the best kinds of games to watch when it comes to the Detroit Lions. It still wasn’t a perfect game by all three phases, but the offense had a complete bounce-back performance from their dud against the Minnesota Vikings last week. Detroit also sought revenge for how the Washington Commanders ended its season last year, so this game was a bit amplified.
Detroit started the game with a stout three-and-out by the defense. That gave the offense the ball, and quickly, the Lions scored to take the lead. Even though it was 14-3 at the end of the...

You could tell something was a little different when FOX cameras caught Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell wearing some glasses on the sideline. As the game progressed, it became more and more clear Campbell had a bigger influence in the offense than in normal week. While he is always on the headset with a play-call sheet in his hands, FOX cameras constantly caught him looking like he was relaying plays to quarterback Jared Goff.
According to Detroit Football Network’s Justin Rogers, Campbell has indeed taken over playcalling from offensive coordinator John Morton.
FOX sideline reporter Megan Olivi talked to...

After the third touchdown scored by the Detroit Lions, the game came to a screeching halt, and the FOX broadcast went between shots of the coaches on the sideline and Amon-Ra St. Brown visibly upset and voicing his opinion to someone off camera.
Come to find out, between the second touchdown scored by Jahmyr Gibbs and the Lions point-after try, Commanders defensive tackle Daron Payne had sucker punched St. Brown.
Payne was officially ejected for unnecessary roughness, and the Lions decided to use the penalty yardage gained to attempt a two-point conversion—which they converted with a run up the middle...

The Detroit Lions and Washington Commanders face off Sunday afternoon in a critical game for both teams. For the 3-6 Commanders, their season is already in danger of falling into “irrelevant” territory. With Jayden Daniels sidelined for at least a few games and a tough stretch of football ahead, it’s hard to imagine them turning the season around. But it’ll be nearly impossible if they lose this week to the Lions.
Detroit, meanwhile, is struggling to find their identity entirely, especially on offense. It’s starting to look like their significant losses on the offensive line—and loss of offensive coordinator Ben...

The Detroit Lions can’t afford a slip-up in Week 10. After losing two of their past three games, the Lions suddenly find themselves on the very edge of the NFC playoff race.
All week, the discussion has been about their lackluster offense. While they technically rank second in the NFL in points per game, they have struggled in the past few weeks. Both the offensive line and offensive coordinator John Morton have come under fire, and they could use a bounce-back game badly to restore confidence.
Facing off against a beat-up Washington Commanders defense could be just what the doctor...

The Detroit Lions (5-3) and Washington Commanders (3-6) have declared their inactives ahead of their Week 10 matchup.
The two biggest names that Lions fans were likely keeping their eye on were starting offensive tackles Penei Sewell and Taylor Decker—who were both dealing with shoulder injuries—but both have been cleared to play. Sewell’s injury is new, and while he took Wednesday off, he returned for practice on Thursday and Friday and was not listed with an injury designation. For Decker, this injury has lingered all season long, but after taking a couple of games off ahead of the bye, he’s...
