The Packers have lost both Al Harris and Aaron Kampman for the season because of knee injuries. Eric Mangini and Jim Schwartz talked after Mangini implied that the Lions faked injuries on Sunday and the two "cleared the air." It apparently dawned on Mangini that he was simply deflecting blame by making those accusations, and he took some responsibility for the loss during today's press conference....

The bottom line is, we didn't do enough to win the game. Jim and I are fine." Schwartz and...

Spygate will forever go down as the bill where the former assistant coach turned head coach fires off at his former boss. Eric Mangini came up under Bill Belechick, and then opted to throw him right under the bus with alleged use of recording equipment during game situations. And since that went so well, Mangini [...]

The dramatic finish isn't the only thing NFL Films caught when it wired Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford during Sunday's 38-37 victory over Cleveland. It also caught Stafford playfully talking trash with former Lions defensive tackle Shaun Rogers, celebrating touchdown passes, cracking jokes on the sideline and having fun with his teammates in the huddle. Rogers hits Stafford after...

Matthew Stafford went another day watching practice instead of participating in it and seems doubtful to play vs. the Packers on Thanksgiving. Stafford dislocated his left shoulder late vs. the Browns in Week 11; Daunte Culpepper is expected to start in Stafford's place. "It's unlikely that he's going to play, but we'll see," Detroit coach Jim Schwartz said. "It's a deal if it gets...

The Browns did what every team does against Lions wide receiver Calvin Johnson. They kept their safeties deep. They double-teamed him. "They gave him a lot of attention," Lions coach Jim Schwartz said. So why did Johnson have a career-high 161 receiving yards Sunday? Yeah, he was playing the Browns, but he has played bad teams before. Yeah, he was closer to full speed after being nagged...

ALLEN PARK, Mich. – Jim Schwartz doesn't want his Detroit Lions to play an overly conservative offense. Without Calvin Johnson, he doesn't think he has much of a choice. Even with a bye week to prepare and the return of rookie quarterback Matt Stafford, the Lions (1-6) couldn't move the ball consistently against the hapless St. Louis Rams on Sunday, losing 17-10 to a team that hadn't won a game in...
