Detroit Lions Betting FAQ
Zero. The Lions are one of 12 teams in the NFL to have never won the Super Bowl. Detroit is also one of four teams to never even make it to the Super Bowl. The three other teams to hold that distinction are the Cleveland Browns, Jacksonville Jaguars and Houston Texans.
In 1934, owner George A. Richards decided to play on Thanksgiving Day to attract more fans. With the Detroit Tigers serving as the main draw in the city at the time, Richards aimed to do something different in hopes of giving his team a bigger spotlight. It ended up working. The Lions not only would sell out the stadium for their first Thanksgiving game against the Bears, but they had to turn people away at the gates. Through the 2020 season, Detroit is 37-42-2 playing on Thanksgiving.
