...With a record of 2-11, the silver-and-Honolulu blue are firmly entrenched at No. 32 on any power poll in this spiral arm of the galaxy. Entrenched, that is, until another loss drops them behind Ohio State, Florida and the Hamburg Sea Devils. Think it can't get worse? Hey, this is the Lions. NFL schedule makers saw fit to arrange the endgame Kitty Cats' so, so long season likewise: at the Green Bay Packers where the Lions haven't won since a guy named Brett Favre took over there (that's right, 1992); against the Chicago Bears in a game which figures to see Motor City backers immortalize the chant "Fire *&#!!%&ing Millen!"; and at the Dallas Cowboys , who on New Year's Eve will probably looking to bag the No. 2 seed in the NFC... Kevin Jones, who was knocked out of the loss to the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, figures to be out for the remainder of the season... Pro Bowl nominee Shaun Rogers... was slapped by the commissioner after testing positive for steroids. The judgment had Rogers forcibly sitting out four games and giving up $250,000. Naturally, "Big Baby" was innocent, protesting that the positive test represented a product that the 354-pound Rogers used to help him control his weight. Or he has asthma. Or he thought they were Shawne Merriman's Pez. Or something... Team officials announced yesterday that WR Mike Williams - you remember him: the former first-round draft pick cum The Most Useless Player in the NFL Today - flunked a weigh-in. At 240 pounds, Williams only missed the target set by Rod Marinelli and Co. by 20. Though no punitive measures have been mentioned, any punishment would seem pointless other then some quality time on the bench... Fire &#!!%&ing Millen.

[Brave AI results]

The Detroit Lions defeated the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 31-23 in a Monday Night Football matchup on October 20, 2025, at Ford Field, marking a significant win for the Lions as they improved their record to 5-2.

The game was a high-stakes NFC showdown, with the Buccaneers entering with a 5-1 record and the Lions at 4-2, and featured a dramatic 78-yard touchdown run by Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs, who reached a speed of 23.23 mph on the play.

[’Civ’s remarks: The game is about halfway through the 3rd quarter, and that ain’t the score. But anyway, I don’t generally watch the games, I look for a ‘real’ highlights vid on YouTube. Helmets off to Baker Mayfield, he’s carrying an entire NFL franchise on his back, and will lead them to the playoffs. Another great move by Cleveland, running Baker out of town.]

Live box score, graphics to entertain us:
