Vikings at Lions predictions: Expert picks for NFL Week 9
Are you ready for some football? With the Detroit Lions taking a week off after their thrilling “Monday Night Football” win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 7, they’re back and ready to get back to business on Sunday afternoon. The Lions host the NFC North divisional rival Minnesota Vikings for their first matchup of the season. The Vikings come in at 3-4 and aren’t as scary as they’ve been in years past, but that doesn’t mean the Lions can overlook them.
“I know what the talent is, I’ve seen it,” said Lions head coach Dan Campbell on Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy. “They’re going to do what they need to do to help him out and try to reduce the stress. Take as much off his plate, yet allow him to do things he does well. They’re going to find ways. They’re going to try to establish the run, screen game, get it to 18 (Justin Jefferson), get this kid on the move. They’re going to do a hell of a job. They’ll have a good plan ready, and so will we.”
Here’s a look at our Pride of Detroit staff picks for the Lions in Week 9:

Terrion Arnold ‘maintains complete innocence’ in kidnapping, theft case
I represent Mr. Terrion Arnold in connection with an incident that allegedly occurred on February 4, 2026, in Tampa, Florida, which resulted in the arrest of five individuals on serious felony charges.
To be clear, Mr. Arnold had no involvement whatsoever in the activities that led to those arrests. He did not participate in, nor was he present for, any conduct related to the alleged offenses. There is no evidence in police reports, text messages, or witness statements that implicates Mr. Arnold in any way.
In fact, after direct communication with the lead prosecutor, it has been confirmed that no charges have been filed against Mr. Arnold in connection with this matter.
Recent media coverage has referenced an Order issued by Circuit Judge J. Logan Murphy, which improperly suggests Mr. Arnold’s involvement in the incident. That same Order also incorrectly identifies Ms. Devalle as Mr. Arnold’s girlfriend. Both assertions are false, misleading, and entirely unsupported by the record.
Mr. Arnold categorically denies these unfounded claims and maintains his complete innocence. He was not involved in the crimes allegedly committed on February 4, 2026, in Tampa, Florida.
We strongly urge members of the media to refrain from perpetuating inaccurate or speculative narratives. The facts are clear, and they do not support any claim of wrongdoing by Mr. Arnold.
