No surprise after the surprise, Matt Patricia is the new Detroit Lions head coach after the 41-33 Philadelphia Eagles upset over the New England Patriots in Super Bowl 52.

The Pittsburgh Steelers, Dallas Cowboys and Detroit Lions each won on Thanksgiving. Here's a recap of the holiday NFL action:

Calvin Johnson, Jr., the face of the Detroit Lions franchise over the past 9 seasons has officially retired.

By now, most people have seen the crazy ending to last night's Monday Night Football game. Just when it seemed like the Detroit Lions were in position to score a late touchdown and take the lead, Kam Chancellor was able to poke the football out of Calvin Johnson as he was reaching for the goal line...

A family from Amarillo took their 10 year-old son Roman to last weekend's football game at AT&T stadium between the Cowboys and Lions. The tickets were a surprise from Roman's grandma because he is a huge Detroit Lions fan.

It is tough enough that the Detroit Lions will play their first playoff game in three years on the road against the red hot Dallas Cowboys. Now, they will have to do it without the services of one of their best defensive players. Tackle Ndamukong Suh was suspended by the NFL for one game today for stepping on the calf and ankle of Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rogers in the fourth quarter yesterday.

The Detroit Lions come into the 2014 season hoping to be able to put together a complete season and get themselves into the postseason.  They stumbled down the stretch last year when they had the best opportunity to win the division.  The late season swoon cost Jim Schwartz his job a coach...

Snow my GOD! The Detroit Lions and the Philadelphia Eagles battled it out in blizzard-like conditions in Philly today. Here are a few incredible photos from the game.

DETROIT (AP) — Calvin Johnson thought Matthew Stafford was going to spike the ball for at least another snap. The Dallas Cowboys did, too. Stafford's 1-yard lunge over a pile of linemen with 12 seconds left and Johnson's 329 yards receiving lifted the Detroit Lions to a 31-30 win over Dallas on Sunday...

ALLEN PARK, Mich. (AP) — The Detroit Lions have formally announced the signing of wide receiver Kevin Ogletree. The team also said Thursday that defensive tackle D'Anthony Smith has been released.
