NFL Week 5: Rookie Team of the Week (Interior Offensive Line: Tate Ratledge, Detroit Lions – 62.4
Ratledge had an up-and-down showing in the Lions’ win over the Bengals. He wasn’t great in pass protection. While he only allowed three pressures, one was converted into a sack and another into a quarterback hit, which ended in a 49.5 PFF pass-blocking grade. He was better blocking for the run, though, as he put up a 63.3 grade — including a 69.0 mark on inside zone runs.):  https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-week-5-rookie-team-of-the-week

2025 NFL trade deadline: Biggest need for all 32 teams entering Week 6 (1. Detroit Lions - BIGGEST NEED: Cornerback.  Terrion Arnold will be out "for a long time," according to Dan Campbell, which puts the Lions' corner crew in a tough spot. A potential season-ending injury is a massive blow to a secondary that wants to play physically. Fellow starter D.J. Reed is already on IR. Backup corner Khalil Dorsey (wrist) is also injured. That leaves Rock Ya-Sin, Avonte Maddox and, potentially, recent practice squad signee Tre Flowers playing significant roles alongside nickel Amik Robertson. This group needs help.):  https://www.nfl.com/news/2025-nfl-trade-deadline-biggest-need-for-all-32-teams



Detroit Lions’ Week 5 Win Sees Extremely Rare Triple Position Dominance:  https://www.profootballnetwork.com/detroit-lions-week-5-win-sees-extremely-rare-triple-position-dominance/

NFL Game Recaps: Week 5 (Lions 37, Bengals 24:  Jake Browning had some nice performances late in 2023 when he took over for an injured Joe Burrow, but he hasn’t enjoyed nearly the same success in his second stint as Burrow’s replacement. Browning gave this game away, preventing the Bengals from having a chance to pull a big upset.  Jared Goff was actually the first quarterback to make a mistake in this game. He had a 7-0 lead, but lost a fumble on Trey Hendrickson strip-sack. However, it was all Browning gaffes after that. Still down 7-0, Browning threw his first interception, allowing Detroit to get the ball deep in Cincinnati territory. Browning later hurled the ball up for grabs from the back of his own end zone.  The mistakes continued into the second half, as Browning was picked a third time because he didn’t see Alex Anzalone in coverage. He also fumbled on a strip-sack, but a teammate recovered. Following this was one of the very few positive moments for Browning, as he launched a deep touchdown to Ja’Marr Chase. This allowed the Bengals to draw to within 11, but the Lions answered on a touchdown on the next drive to put this game away.):  https://walterfootball.com/nflreview.php
