Detroit Lions schedule 2025: Game-by-game win-loss record predictions for all 17 games
The Detroit Lions are preparing to begin their fifth season under head coach Dan Campbell. Detroit has made consecutive postseason berths in the last two years, a testament to how the head coach has turned things around.
After finishing as the top seed in the NFC conference last season, the Lions lost their first game in the playoffs to the Washington Commanders. Fans of Detroit will be looking forward to seeing the team make a deeper playoff run this season with a number of the team's key players back to full fitness in 2025, including pass rusher Aidan Hutchinson.
The Lions are poised to contend for the NFC North title once more, particularly given the strength of their roster on both sides of the ball.
Below is a look at the Lions' 2025 schedule. We have also evaluated predictions for each of the team's game this season using the Sportskeeda Playoff Predictor.

Detroit Lions' predicted 2025 regular-season record
After losing their defensive and offensive coordinators to head coaching positions this offseason, the Detroit Lions will likely experience some decline.
The Sportskeeda Playoff Predictor predicts that the Lions will only win nine games this season, compared to their 15-game winning total from last year. The tool predicts that the team will finish third in the NFC North with an overall record of 9-8, despite having a 4-2 record in their division.
Additionally, the prediction tool projects that the 2025 season will mark the end of Detroit's two-year postseason streak.
