The Detroit Lions boast a storied 90-year history that began in 1930 as a founding member of the National Football League (NFL). Since then, the Lions have built a passionate fan base supporting their team through highs and lows. An absolute highlight was winning the 1957 NFL Championship under quarterback Tobin Rote and fullback John Henry Johnson. The Lions capped a dominant season with a 59-14 title game rout of the Cleveland Browns - still the highest-scoring championship game in NFL history. Unforgettable were also the playoff runs in the 1990s led by running back Barry Sanders and receiver Herman Moore. Sanders' electrifying running style and Moore's acrobatic catches propelled the Lions to the 1991 NFC Championship game against the Washington Redskins. Other legends like quarterback Bobby Layne, receiver Calvin Johnson and defensive tackle Alex Karras have shaped the Lions' storied history. Unforgettable is also the Thanksgiving Day Classic - the Lions' annual Thanksgiving home game, an over 80-year tradition. With their iconic team colors blue and silver, the Detroit Lions have evolved into a beloved brand. Whether the classic "Throwback" jerseys or modern "Color Rush" looks - the official collection has Lions fans worldwide swooning.
