Detroit keeps adding wins
The Detroit Lions beat the Miami Dolphins 19-9 at Hard Rock Stadium in Week 9, moving to 6-2 in the 2026 season. Detroit has scored 222 points and allowed 189, building a plus-33 point differential. The Miami result followed narrow home victories over Minnesota, 19-15 in Week 8, and Green Bay, 20-17 in Week 7. Detroit also beat Arizona 45-21 on the road in Week 5. The Lions scored 19 or 20 points in each of their three most recent games and won all three.
Gibbs sets the season fantasy pace
Jahmyr Gibbs leads Detroit with 209.2 PPR points, ahead of Amon-Ra St. Brown at 157.6. Jared Goff has 147.4, followed by Jameson Williams with 105.7 and Sam LaPorta with 93.1. St. Brown delivered Detroit's highest listed fantasy total in Week 9 with 16.6 PPR points. Kicker Jake Bates added 15.0, while Gibbs finished with 13.4. LaPorta contributed 7.2 and Goff had 5.3. Gibbs remains Detroit's season-long fantasy leader, but St. Brown provided the stronger Week 9 return. Goff's modest output also underscores the difference between Detroit securing a win and its quarterback delivering a productive fantasy week.
New England is next
Detroit hosts the New England Patriots in Week 10 at FC Bayern Munich Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for Sunday, Nov. 15, at 9:30 a.m. ET.
