Come join our Pride of Detroit community for the Detroit Lions’ preseason opener vs. the Los Angeles Chargers.
Soon, our football-less nightmare will be over.
At 8 p.m. ET on Thursday night, our Detroit Lions will officially be back. The team is down in Canton, Ohio, for the 2025 Hall of Fame Game, kicking off the NFL’s preseason schedule. From now until mid-February, we’re going to have football to watch every single week.
Congratulations, we made it.
The preseason bout is with the Los Angeles Chargers , but the opponent doesn’t matter all that much because teams aren’t doing any scouting or game plan building. It’s all about self-scout and staying healthy.
So with that in mind, we’ve set you up with all the pregame material you need. Including:
- 10 positional battles to watch vs. the Chargers
- Updated depth chart with jersey numbers
- How to watch the Hall of Fame Game
- Players we’re excited to watch on Thursday night
If this is your first Lions season with Pride of Detroit, we like to have a first and second half live chat thread for every game. Essentially, it’s a place for our community to hang out during the game and chat. Simply scroll down to the comment section when the game starts, and chat with our awesome community. And when the game kicks over to halftime, be sure to head to the front page of the website and be on the lookout for the second half live chat.
In addition to these live chats, we’ll have a live updates post that will give drive-by-drive analysis and highlights from the game.
But it’s almost game time. So sit back, grab your favorite beverage, and let’s enjoy the return of Lions football in our lives.
