Luka Doncic calls out NBA media reports after Lakersâ playoff exit to Thunder
Luka Doncic pushes back against media speculation after Lakers' playoff loss to Thunder.
The Detroit Lions are expected to have four primetime games in the 2026 NFL season, down from five and six in the previous years. This prediction is influenced by potential 'Lions fatigue' and a less attractive schedule for primetime slots.
**My answer:** I actually think the Lions will drop down to just four primetime games for two reasons. First, I think there is going to be a little bit of Lions fatigue. Detroit has been in the national spotlight for three years now, and after a disappointing season, I think the league may look for more fresh stories. Teams like the Bears, Patriots, and Broncos could see more attention, and that has to come from somewhere. The other reason is Detroitâs schedule is not particularly chock-full of candidates for the primetime spotlight. Sure any games against the or Bears could easily be put into those timeslots. But the out-of-division games arenât that attractive. Outside of the Bills gameâwhich is already headed for primetimeâyou have the Patriots, , Giants, , , Titans, Cardinals, , , and Dolphins. You could argue for the Patriots, Giants, and Buccaneers, but thatâs about it. If the league still thinks Detroit can draw the ratings they have over the past few seasons, I wouldnât be shocked if theyâre at six primetime games again. But I just think some of that balloon has deflated after last yearâs disappointing season. What do you think? Vote in the poll below and share your thoughts in the comment section.
