LIONS GAINING STEAM IN RANKINGS (AGAIN).
Nearly a decade removed from record futility, Detroit is becoming astonishingly consistent. They move into the top 10 of our rankings for the third time in four seasons. Week 12 Power Rankings.

FPI NOT IMPRESSED BY LIONS.
Among the NFL's division leaders, nobody ranks worse overall in FPI than the Lions, thanks to one of the league's worst defensive efficiencies. So much for those fun fourth-quarter finishes.

Pride Of Detroit Blog PODcast: Thanksgiving-ganza Listcast, Vikings preview, bold predictions. 2 Hours.
We packed this one with stuffing and tons of content. Come in and listen to the staff talk Lions football.

This week on the PODcast:
Recapping Jags madness! It?s a disease contracted from jungle cats, and it?s deadly.

Was the Jaguars win a ?bad win?? Can you have one of those in the NFL?

Columnists and fans are decidedly unhappy with how the Lions won, and we investigate.

A short Vikings preview. A eulogy for Blair Walsh, and Kyle Yost speaks of solidarity among kickers.

Rage Corner comes back to talk about placards and why you shouldn?t be holding these stupid things up.

Ryan Mathews makes a bold prediction.

Thanksgiving brings back LISTCAST! We rank the top five Thanksgiving side dishes and Ryan hates my love for one hard-working tuber.

Mailbag, as per the norm. Questions about Thanksgiving, Lions games on Thanksgiving, Nintendo, the DeAndre Levy-to-Thurston Armbrister conversion rate and a whole lot more.

November 23, 1978, Horace King plunges into the end zone for the game-winning touchdown as the Lions defeat the Denver Broncos on Thanksgiving Day at the Silverdome, 17-14.
The Lions enter the game at 4-8 but they play well enough to defeat the Broncos, who had been in the Super Bowl the previous season.
