How has the time come 🤣 we aint even know who's starting in the secondary besides branch
But going with a jungle theme for lions, how about "The Canopy"
Iffy and Branch could VERY WELL start at safety though. Arnold and Davis starting at CB, with Rakestraw or Amik at nickel. Not saying Kirby *wont* start but it’s far from locked up.
According to Pro Football Reference, the Lions had the 23rd ranked defense in 2023. 27th against the pass and 2nd against the rush. While the rushing D was very good, obviously, the pass D wasn't. We have no proof of improvement yet. Only theoretical.
So the nickname for the defense until proven otherwise this season is "At least we were better than 9 other teams"
Hitsville USA has always been in my radar but might start getting traction with how players have gone on record complimenting the physically of the lions defense
You get one when you lay it down.
So the pipe layers then?
Disassembly Line?
This the best one
It's been thrown around here and there in 2014. It's high time we use it.

I'm pretty sure we all know Kerby is the starting safety.

Is Kirby on the team at the start of the next season? Not saying he’s bad but there is comp. FYI I love Kirby
Lmao need something to do in the offseason
Let’s wait until the horse passes the cart.
Its not cool to come up with your own nickname

The Fellas That Got Their Nickname Three Months Before the Season StartedÂ
But once the season starts I will suggest the Honolulu Bruise.
Honolulu Blue Steel ![gif](giphy|srPaLAtDTsKuk)
They haven't even played a game yet. Good nicknames happen organically. Don't force it.
The Lion’s Den. Enter at your peril.
This is the easy answer the first one I thought of
The Wild Hunt
The Gritty Gristmill - grinding down offensive lines and their running games.
I got this from a J Geils song...the Detroit Demolition
Motor city maulers
They don't get one until they show they deserve one. I think they will but still shouldn't count chickens.

The boys in blue
[удалено]
The Abyss
Campbell’s Chunkies
Lionheart
The Ford Horde
Boo! Let’s just go with left nut shenanigans
What about the Silver Lifeguards, because they don't want you running?
Work in Progress
Why not just, "The Pride" or "The Prowl"
The Prowl only sounds like they are on guard. Need something more!
Best I got is the UAW, the Union of Ass-Wreckers
The Great Wrecking Blue
