The Detroit Lions Podcast

Detroit Lions Podcast: Lessons from Kansas City and What Comes Next The Detroit Lions left Arrowhead with a loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, and while it was a frustrating finish, there was more to unpack than just the score. In this week's episode of The Gray Area, we break down what went wrong, what went right, and how this team needs to respond as it prepares for another prime-time matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. From Jared Goff's efficiency to Brian Branch's fiery moment, from officiating frustration to Aidan Hutchinson's continued impact, this episode covers it all. What We Learned Against the Chiefs The biggest takeaway from the Kansas City game is that this Detroit Lions team is built to win with its offense, not in defensive slugfests. Head coach Dan Campbell has preached complementary football since the day he arrived, but this roster leans on its offensive firepower to carry the load. In both of Detroit's losses this season, the offense was held under 20 points—13 against Green Bay and 17 against Kansas City. Against elite opponents like Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs, that simply isn't enough. Jared Goff was sharp again, completing 79 percent of his passes with two touchdowns despite heavy pressure and limited ground support. Amon-Ra St. Brown's rare drop on fourth down and penalties from the offensive front cost Detroit opportunities to extend drives. Meanwhile, Aidan Hutchinson and the defense couldn't generate consistent stops, forcing only one punt from Kansas City all night. When Mahomes is given that kind of rhythm, the result is predictable. The officiating became a headline, and for good reason. The Chiefs went an entire game without a single enforced penalty, something that hadn't happened in 363 straight nfl contests. Still, Detroit made enough of its own mistakes to shoulder much of the blame. Brian Branch, Discipline, and the Road Ahead Brian Branch's postgame scuffle and looming fine added another layer of frustration to an already heated night. His aggressiveness is part of what makes him great, but his emotional control is now a point of emphasis for Campbell. Branch has been fined over $129,000 this season, and another deduction appears imminent after Sunday's melee. The coaching staff knows it must regroup quickly. Tampa Bay arrives for Monday Night Football with a 5-1 record, confidence in quarterback Baker Mayfield, and a defense capable of exploiting any lingering Lions injuries. The message this week is clear: stay poised, play your game, and get back to executing the fundamentals that fueled Detroit's four-game win streak. Dan Campbell called the Chiefs loss a “wake-up call,” and that's exactly what it needs to be. The Lions are still one of the NFL's top teams, but if they want to stay in the NFC's top tier, they have to clean up the mistakes and refocus their edge—because nobody is going to feel sorry for them. https://youtu.be/Ju3LwbZJH7Q Let us know what you think about the show by commenting in the podcast thread in the subreddit, or by leaving us a voice mail message via Skype at: Detroit Lions Podcast  Your input will help make the show better, and if you leave us a message on Skype, you just might be featured in an upcoming podcast!

Detroit Lions vs Kansas City Chiefs Post Game Show: Game 6 Breakdown Lions Face the Ultimate Test at Arrowhead The Detroit Lions entered Week 6 of the NFL season with one of their toughest challenges yet, facing the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium. Regardless of the final score, this was a measuring-stick game. The Lions came in confident after a strong start to the season, while the Chiefs remain the standard by which contenders are judged. On our post game show, we'll dive into every angle from this clash between Dan Campbell's rising team and Andy Reid's reigning champions. Detroit aimed to show that its physical brand of football could travel, that Jared Goff could handle the noise and pressure of Arrowhead, and that the Lions defense could contain Patrick Mahomes. One of the main storylines coming in was how Detroit's young secondary would handle the speed and creativity of Kansas City's passing attack. Could Aidan Hutchinson and the Lions' defensive front get enough pressure to disrupt Mahomes' rhythm? That balance between coverage and rush will be one of our main talking points during the show. On the offensive side, we'll break down whether Detroit's running game, led by Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery, could find traction against a Chiefs defense that has improved considerably under Steve Spagnuolo. Did Amon-Ra St. Brown continue his streak of reliability? Were there explosive plays from Jameson Williams or Sam LaPorta that shifted momentum? Our Detroit Lions post game show will cover the biggest storylines from this high-profile Game 6 matchup: Quarterback comparison: How did Jared Goff stack up against Patrick Mahomes? Did Goff maintain composure, limit mistakes, and sustain drives against one of the league's loudest crowds? Defensive intensity: Was Hutchinson able to collapse the pocket and generate consistent pressure? How did the Lions' linebackers handle Travis Kelce and Kansas City's short passing game? Situational football: We'll look at red zone efficiency, third-down execution, and turnovers. Against a team like Kansas City, those moments define outcomes. Coaching and adjustments: Dan Campbell's aggressiveness is a defining feature of Detroit football. How did his decisions on fourth downs or clock management influence the game? As always, our post game show is fueled by fan perspective. We'll open the phone lines to take your calls and hear your Detroit Lions reaction. Were you encouraged by how this team matched up with the defending Super Bowl champions? Did the game highlight areas that still need work? No matter the result, this matchup serves as a valuable checkpoint for Detroit's season. Facing Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs on their home turf provides a clear picture of where the Lions stand among the NFL elite.

Detroit Lions Podcast: Bengals Recap and Chiefs Showdown Preview The Detroit Lions enter Sunday night's clash with the Kansas City Chiefs riding high after a dominant win over the Cincinnati Bengals. In this week's episode of the Bischoff and Brown Show, we break down the complete performance from last Sunday, discuss key player storylines like Jared Goff's MVP-level efficiency, Kalif Raymond's impact on special teams, and the defensive growth under fire. We also look ahead to the Chiefs matchup that has the entire nfl watching. The Lions made it look easy in Cincinnati, handling business on both sides of the ball. Jared Goff continues to lead one of the most balanced and efficient offenses in the nfl, completing nearly 76 percent of his passes while sitting atop the league in touchdowns and passer rating. He's calm in chaos, steady at the line of scrimmage, and surgical in execution. The podcast dives into how Goff's decision-making and tempo are elevating the play of everyone around him. Kalif Raymond once again flipped the field with elite vision and confidence in the return game, reminding listeners how valuable his consistency is to Detroit's complementary football identity. Sam LaPorta added another score, and Amon-Ra St. Brown continued his run as the league's most dependable slot receiver. Even with depth being tested up front—rookie Christian Mahogany stepping in for a hobbled Graham Glasgow—the line held firm. The Lions remain top five in both scoring and red-zone efficiency, proving that offensive coordinator John Morton has successfully carried forward the team's explosive blueprint. On defense, Terrion Arnold silenced critics with two pass breakups against Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins, showing progress in technique and confidence. Aidan Hutchinson once again set the tone up front, applying constant pressure as Detroit's defensive front smothered Cincinnati's makeshift line. Now comes the big one—Kansas City Chiefs, Sunday Night Football, and national eyes back on Dan Campbell's team. The Lions have climbed into the top three in most major power rankings, and a win at Arrowhead would cement them as the nfl's top dog. The conversation this week centers around injuries and adjustments. Terrion Arnold remains out, meaning Rock Ya-Sin and Amik Robertson must step up against Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce. Defensively, Kelvin Sheppard's unit will emphasize contain rushes and bracket coverage to limit Mahomes' improvisation. Offensively, Jahmyr Gibbs is poised for a breakout under the lights, while Goff and St. Brown should exploit a Chiefs defense vulnerable to play action. The hosts agree—this version of the Detroit Lions is built for the moment. If Goff stays clean and Sheppard's defense executes, Sunday could be another statement night in a season already filled with them. https://youtu.be/LtGe6Z91z7M Let us know what you think about the show by commenting in the podcast thread in the subreddit, or by leaving us a voice mail message via Skype at: Detroit Lions Podcast  Your input will help make the show better, and if you leave us a message on Skype, you just might be featured in an upcoming podcast!

Detroit Lions Podcast: Four Straight, Chiefs On Deck The Detroit Lions handled their business against the Cincinnati Bengals, and the tape backs up what the scoreboard said. In this week's episode we unpack why the operation looks calmer, faster, and tougher in all three phases, and we set the stage for Sunday Night Football against the Kansas City Chiefs. If you are tracking power rankings and playoff chatter around the nfl, you can feel it. Detroit is winning in repeatable ways. Jared Goff continues to be the thermostat for this offense. His pre-snap control showed up in protection checks, cadence, and quick answers against rotation. The ball came out on time, the run game stayed on schedule with David Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs, and the low red zone looked composed. We also talked through the third phase, because Kalif Raymond keeps tilting fields with smart decisions and timely returns that gift the offense short grass. Defensively, the plan was disciplined rush plus tight coverage rules. Aidan Hutchinson's motor again set the edge and squeezed the pocket. The room knows it needs to cut down on penalties that erase game-changing plays, and that message has landed. Trick plays remain on the menu. The staff is still willing to pull levers that force defenses to communicate at speed, and that stress is showing up in busted fits and easy explosives. The injuries are real, and we covered every angle. Terrion Arnold is set to miss time. Other corners are managing issues, which puts a premium on disguises, leverage, and safety help over the top. Up front, Taylor Decker is battling through pain, so the protection plan has to insulate the edges. That means tight end help, chip rules for backs, compressed splits when needed, and a steady diet of first-down efficiency that keeps the entire call sheet available. The fastest way to keep the train on schedule is to keep Jared Goff clean. Now the Kansas City Chiefs. The checklist is clear. Offensively, keep the tempo variable, force simple pictures with motion, and attack space with Gibbs and Sam LaPorta on option routes. Let Amon-Ra St. Brown win choice and glance. Test tackling in the flats. Defensively, Patrick Mahomes punishes undisciplined rush, so it is simulated pressure with rush-lane integrity, late rotation on the back end, and rally tackling. Get Kansas City into second and long, then make them stack drives. This team is stacking traits that travel. Clean pre-snap, early-down wins, red-zone efficiency, and special teams edges are why the Detroit Lions have banked four in a row. The standard does not change because the venue does. Sunday night is a measuring stick, and the locker room is treating it exactly that way. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G5Y4d8vhMww Let us know what you think about the show by leaving us a message at (313) 314-2421!

Detroit Lions Podcast: Bengals Lessons, Chiefs Challenge The Detroit Lions are 5-1 after taking down the Cincinnati Bengals, their fourth straight victory and one that further solidified their place among the nfl elite. In this week's episode, we unpack how Jared Goff's efficiency and leadership have stabilized the team through injuries, how Kalif Raymond continues to deliver impact plays in key moments, and how Kelvin Sheppard and John Morton have this coaching staff operating at championship tempo ahead of a Sunday night showdown with the Kansas City Chiefs. The story of this Lions offense continues to be balance and adaptability. Goff has been the steady heartbeat, completing nearly 75 percent of his passes and avoiding turnovers while commanding pre-snap adjustments that keep defenses off balance. His chemistry with Amon-Ra St. Brown remains elite, but it was Kalif Raymond who provided the spark in Cincinnati with a clutch punt return that set up an early score and flipped momentum. The podcast breaks down how John Morton's play sequencing kept the Bengals guessing—quick game, motion, and play action that forced light boxes and opened running lanes for David Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs. The episode also dives into how Morton's offense, still evolving post–Ben Johnson, continues to thrive on situational mastery. Detroit ranks among the league's best in third-down efficiency and red-zone scoring, driven by Goff's control of tempo and the line's ability to protect despite injuries. The creativity remains alive and well—trick plays, shifts, and personnel groupings designed to attack defensive tendencies rather than lean on volume passing. Defensively, Kelvin Sheppard has turned versatility into identity. The Bengals learned quickly that Detroit's front seven can wreck a game on its own. Aidan Hutchinson continues to lead the charge, but the podcast highlights how Sheppard's late-down disguises and mixed coverage shells have turned this group into one of the NFL's most disruptive units. Even as the secondary remains banged up, the Lions' ability to generate pressure with four and stay disciplined in their rush lanes has kept explosive plays to a minimum. Looking ahead, the focus shifts to Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs. Sheppard's next challenge is containing a quarterback who thrives on chaos. Expect Detroit to lean on simulated pressure, zone-match coverage, and spy looks to force Kansas City to sustain drives rather than strike deep. Offensively, Morton and Goff will aim to control pace, shorten possessions, and keep Mahomes watching from the sideline. This week's message is clear: the Detroit Lions have evolved into a complete team—balanced, resilient, and ready for prime time once again. https://youtu.be/MiqD9ai75OU Let us know what you think about the show by commenting in the podcast thread in the subreddit, or by leaving us a voice mail message via Skype at: Detroit Lions Podcast  Your input will help make the show better, and if you leave us a message on Skype, you just might be featured in an upcoming podcast!

Detroit Lions vs Cincinnati Bengals Post Game Show: Game 5 Reactions What Stood Out in the Detroit Lions vs Cincinnati Bengals Clash The Lions' Week 5 contest against the Cincinnati Bengals at Ford Field delivered plenty of narrative points we'll unpack on tonight's post game show. The Bengals, playing without Joe Burrow, leaned on Jake Browning under center, and Detroit's defensive front had a golden opportunity to challenge a weakened passing attack. Meanwhile, on offense, rumors surrounding Taylor Decker's status added drama to the line of scrimmage battle. One of the biggest storylines we'll examine is whether Detroit leaned into its ground game to control tempo or trusted Jared Goff to carve up the Bengals' secondary. Cincinnati has struggled to stop the run this season, and Detroit's backfield duo - Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery - has shown flashes of dominance. Did they get the workload they needed in Game 5? On defense, the Lions had a chance to pressure Browning and force quick decisions. We'll assess how well Aidan Hutchinson and the edge rushers executed, and whether the secondary held up against receivers like Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. Did Detroit's game plan force tough third-down throws? Did the Bengals' incomplete pass rate grow under duress? These are exactly the types of tactical battles we'll highlight in the show. In tonight's Detroit Lions post game show, we'll dive into: Offensive line dynamics and protection: If Taylor Decker was unavailable or limited, how did the Lions adjust? Did the interior unit step up? Balance vs. explosiveness: Did Detroit mix quick passes, screens, and run sets, or did they risk being one dimensional? Which playmakers made big moments? Defensive disruption and coverage: How consistent was the pass rush? When the Bengals had opportunities, did Detroit's secondary tighten up or give up chunk plays? Critical fourth-downs, red zone efficiency, and turnovers: In close games, those margins often decide winners. We'll dissect how each team handled those key moments. Above all, we'll shine a spotlight on the Detroit Lions reaction—how the team responded emotionally, whether they leaned on veterans in pressure moments, and whether the coaching staff showed urgency or patience in adjustments. As always, our post game show isn't just us talking. We're opening the phone lines to take your calls and reactions. Did you see the Lions dominate? Did Cincinnati make life difficult? Were there coaching choices you liked - or hated? We want those voices on air. Game 5 carries weight. Whether Detroit established dominance or survived a battle, the result and decisions in this game could set a tone for the rest of the NFL season. On tonight's show, we'll sort through the emotion, the X's and O's, and the fan pulse behind every snap.

Cleveland Browns In The Grey AreaLions Prove They Can Win in Multiple Ways The Detroit Lions left Ford Field on Sunday with a 34–17 win over the Cleveland Browns, and the performance underscored an important truth about this team: they can win in a variety of ways. Dan Campbell has been preaching versatility since training camp, and his roster showed it in Game 4 of the NFL season. The Cleveland Browns brought the league's top-ranked defense into Detroit. Jim Schwartz had Myles Garrett and a front four capable of wrecking games. On paper, this looked like a brutal test for Jared Goff and the Lions offense. Instead, Detroit leaned on defense and special teams to flip the game. Forcing turnovers and cashing them in for 17 points, plus a key Khalif Raymond return, highlighted just how complete this Lions roster has become. The defense held Cleveland's struggling offense in check, outside of the now-familiar opening drive lapse. For the fourth straight game, the Lions allowed a touchdown on the opponent's first possession. Yet once again, they settled in, clamped down, and dictated terms the rest of the way. Aidan Hutchinson's disruptive presence and a revitalized front seven are putting opponents on notice. Offensive Efficiency and Individual Performances The Lions offense didn't need fireworks to get the job done, but they still found ways to make history against Cleveland's vaunted defense. Jameer Gibbs ran for more yards on his own than any single team had managed against the Browns all season. The Lions finished with 109 rushing yards, nearly double what Cleveland typically allows, and did not give up a single sack. That speaks volumes about both the offensive line and Goff's pocket awareness. Amon-Ra St. Brown continued his consistent dominance, adding to a remarkable season that already places him in historic company. Through four games, he has joined names like Randy Moss in producing receptions, yards, and touchdowns at a pace rarely seen in the NFL. Hutchinson's sack production is similarly eye-catching, as he barrels into Defensive Player of the Year conversations. The statistics tell a story of a balanced and dangerous team. Detroit became just the third NFL team since the 1970 merger to go three straight games without allowing a sack while also producing 15 touchdowns and 10 sacks in the same stretch. That kind of balance—production on both sides of the line of scrimmage—separates contenders from pretenders. The Month One Vibe Check Four games into the 2025 NFL season, the Lions stand at 3–1, in first place in the NFC North, and with momentum on their side. The offense is efficient, the defense opportunistic, and the culture Campbell has built is evident on every snap. This victory over the Cleveland Browns was not just another win. It was proof that the Lions can adapt, win ugly, win flashy, or simply outlast an opponent. As we turn toward Game 5, Detroit looks like a contender ready to make noise all season long. https://youtu.be/i2rb1b4hRHg Let us know what you think about the show by commenting in the podcast thread in the subreddit, or by leaving us a voice mail message via Skype at: Detroit Lions Podcast  Your input will help make the show better, and if you leave us a message on Skype, you just might be featured in an upcoming podcast!

The Lions were looking to steady their season against one of the league's most physical defensive fronts, while the Browns aimed to prove they could win on the road in a hostile environment. The post game discussion will naturally focus on the battle in the trenches. Cleveland's defensive line, led by Myles Garrett, is one of the best in the NFL.

Detroit Lions Podcast: From Baltimore Breakthrough to Browns Blueprint The Detroit Lions walked out of Monday night with more than a win—they left Baltimore with a recalibrated national narrative. In this episode, we unpack why that performance travels, how Jared Goff's command keeps the offense on schedule, and what Kelvin Sheppard's defense can duplicate on a short week as the Cleveland Browns visit Ford Field. The focus is clear: stack traits that win in the nfl, not just one-offs that win a night. What Baltimore Confirmed About DetroitBrowns Preview: Winning on Detroit's Terms Two weeks, two different paths to points. After detonating the Bears through the air, Detroit bludgeoned the baltimore ravens with balance and situational precision. Goff's pre- and post-snap processing—checks, protections, and ball placement—kept Detroit out of negative plays and set up the fourth-down strike to Amon-Ra St. Brown that tilted the game. That's the hallmark of an elite attack: win a shootout one Sunday, then win a fistfight the next. On defense, Sheppard's group again started slow before clamping down, marrying simulated pressures with rush-lane discipline to squeeze escape angles and manufacture seven sacks on Lamar—proof of concept for a spy-and-squeeze menu that should age well. Credit John Morton and the offensive staff for multiplicity without vanity. The touches flowed—David Montgomery, Jahmyr Gibbs, Sam LaPorta, St. Brown—forcing Baltimore's second level to tackle in space and defend every blade of grass. That multiplicity, paired with a cleaner penalty sheet and consistent red-zone sequencing, is the identity that wins in December and January. What Baltimore Confirmed About DetroitBrowns Preview: Winning on Detroit's Terms This Cleveland Browns defense is real. Jim Schwartz's front plays on your side of the line, with Myles Garrett wrecking edges and man corners Denzel Ward and Greg Newsome squeezing windows. Interior disruptor Malik Collins has been a problem on tape, and Cleveland's rookie class is contributing early snaps. The adjustment for Detroit: vary protection IDs, change the launch point, and force Cleveland to tackle Gibbs and LaPorta in space on early downs so Goff isn't living in obvious pass sets. This is another week for tempo pockets, bunch/stack releases, and quick game that becomes explosives when angles are bad. Matchup math favors Sheppard's defense. Cleveland throws at one of the highest rates while ranking near the bottom in yards per pass and explosive plays; Joe Flacco's pressure splits amplify that drag. Detroit must strangle first down, earn second-and-long, then hunt with five-man fronts that keep contain on draw and screen. Protect the post, plaster on scramble, and make the Browns stack 10-play drives in a loud building. Do that, and Dan Campbell's team turns Sunday into another four-quarter clinic in complementary football—with Jared Goff, Kelvin Sheppard, and John Morton headlining an algorithm-proof formula the nfl is learning to respect. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWtj2bNgeDE Let us know what you think about the show by commenting in the podcast thread in the subreddit, or by leaving us a voice mail message via Skype at: Detroit Lions Podcast  Your input will help make the show better, and if you leave us a message on Skype, you just might be featured in an upcoming podcast!

Detroit Lions Podcast: Statement in Baltimore, Calculus for Cleveland The Detroit Lions didn't just beat the Baltimore Ravens—they reframed the early-season narrative on national TV. Our latest episode unpacks how Dan Campbell's group closed a hostile road game, why Jared Goff's quiet precision keeps elevating the offense, and how Kelvin Sheppard's plan rattled Lamar Jackson. Then we pivot to a top-tier defense and a wounded tackle room as the Cleveland Browns come to Ford Field on Sunday. What Monday Night Told Us About Detroit This was complementary football at scale. Offensively, Detroit toggled from Week 2's aerial binge to a trench-first blueprint, piling on rushing efficiency while Goff went 20-of-28 without a turnover and feathered a fourth-down dime to Amon-Ra St. Brown—the night's fulcrum throw. On the edges, Penei Sewell authored a historic performance, drawing the best single-game run-blocking grade in PFF history, a data point that matches the eye test and film-room consensus. Defensively, Kelvin Sheppard started hot-knife/cold-steel—an early score allowed, then relentless adjustment. Detroit sacked Lamar seven times, tying the most he has ever taken, as simulated pressure and delayed second-level triggers compressed escape lanes and forced Baltimore to play left-handed. That's not a fluke; it's teach tape for Sheppard's spy-and-squeeze menu and a culture that fixes problems in-game. Credit John Morton and the offensive staff for the multiplicity, too. The show walks through how Detroit's formation variety and tempo kept Baltimore from sitting on tendencies, with touches distributed across David Montgomery, Jahmyr Gibbs, Sam LaPorta, and St. Brown instead of chasing vanity stat lines. This version of the Lions can beat you down two different hallways—through the air one week, through your ribcage the next. Scouting the Cleveland Browns: Iron on Iron Cleveland arrives with an elite, No. 1-rated defense and Myles Garrett, a game-tilting monster who bends pockets all by himself. Detroit's answers? Force Browns corners to tackle in space (Gibbs/LaPorta option routes), vary protection IDs, and keep the ball moving on first down to avoid obvious pass sets. Meanwhile, a battered Browns tackle room complicates their plan: Dawand Jones is out for the season (IR), and Cleveland signed Thayer Munford Jr. while shuffling bookends—an edge opportunity for Aidan Hutchinson and Detroit's five-man fronts. Market signals also reflect the matchup: early Week 4 boards list Detroit as a sizeable home favorite (spreads clustering around Lions −9.5 with a modest total), consistent with the Lions' form and Cleveland's offensive drag. It's still nfl football—one turnover or special-teams swing can rewrite scripts—but Detroit holds multiple levers: early-down efficiency, red-zone resourcefulness, and a pass rush that's heating up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQhZrt4cDdQ Let us know what you think about the show by commenting in the podcast thread in the subreddit, or by leaving us a voice mail message via Skype at: Detroit Lions Podcast  Your input will help make the show better, and if you leave us a message on Skype, you just might be featured in an upcoming podcast!

Detroit Lions Make a Statement in Baltimore | Detroit Lions Podcast The Detroit Lions stunned the football world with a decisive Monday Night Football win over the baltimore ravens, marking their first-ever victory in Baltimore and flipping the early-season narrative on its head. In this week's episode of the Detroit Lions Podcast, we break down how Dan Campbell's team imposed their will against one of the NFL's most feared opponents, what it means for Jared Goff's growing reputation, and where the Lions stand in the evolving playoff picture. Jared Goff's Efficiency and Offensive Balance One of the podcast's key themes was the versatility of this Lions offense. Against the Bears in Week 2, Goff carved up Chicago through the air. Against Baltimore, Detroit leaned on the ground game, piling up over 220 rushing yards and four touchdowns behind the duo of David Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs. Goff was quietly surgical again, completing 20 of 28 passes with no turnovers, highlighted by a clutch fourth-down strike to Amon-Ra St. Brown. Listeners will appreciate how the episode contextualizes Goff's performance within national narratives. Despite playing mistake-free, efficient football, Goff continues to be overlooked in league-wide conversations until he proves it on the postseason stage. The show makes the case that, like Lamar Jackson, Goff is playing at a level that demands recognition—if not now, then certainly by February. Defense Turns Up the Heat on Lamar Jackson Detroit's defense once again started slow, giving up a touchdown on Baltimore's opening drive, but Kelvin Sheppard's unit adjusted brilliantly. The Lions recorded seven sacks, tying the most Lamar Jackson has ever taken in a game. The pass rush, led by Aidan Hutchinson, consistently collapsed the pocket, while coverage improved as the night wore on. Not every storyline was glowing. Rookie corner Terrion Arnold struggled early, finding himself trending on social media for the wrong reasons. But as the podcast notes, the secondary settled down once the front seven took over, and the Lions' ability to adjust midgame highlights the growing maturity of this defense. Dan Campbell's Team, and What's Next Perhaps the biggest takeaway is cultural: this is Dan Campbell's team, and the national media can no longer dismiss him as a “meathead motivator.” From fourth-down aggression to locker room accountability, Campbell has built a program that responds to adversity—whether it's a Week 1 loss to Green Bay or a hostile road environment in Baltimore. With Cleveland and Cincinnati on deck before another primetime date with Tampa Bay, Detroit has the chance to build on momentum and position itself atop the NFC North and the wider NFL power rankings. As the podcast emphasizes, this isn't just a hot start—the Lions are built to contend, and the best football may still be ahead. Listen on YouTube and Spotify for the full breakdown of Lions-Ravens, fan reactions, and what lies ahead for Detroit. https://youtu.be/a630BHoNMJ0 Let us know what you think about the show by commenting in the podcast thread in the subreddit, or by leaving us a voice mail message via Skype at: Detroit Lions Podcast  Your input will help make the show better, and if you leave us a message on Skype, you just might be featured in an upcoming podcast!

Detroit Lions vs Baltimore Ravens Post Game Show: Detroit Lions Podcast Reacts Detroit Faces Baltimore on the National Stage Monday Night Football gave us the Detroit Lions against the Baltimore Ravens in a matchup that will shape early perceptions of both teams. For the Lions, this was about responding to a shaky start to the season and proving they can compete under the lights. For the Ravens, it was about defending their home field with Lamar Jackson leading the way. On our post game show, we are focusing on the storylines that emerged no matter the final score. How did Jared Goff manage the pocket against Baltimore's defensive front? Did Amon Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams make the kinds of plays needed to stretch the Ravens' secondary? Were the Lions able to contain Derrick Henry and limit the explosive potential of Jackson, who always poses a unique dual-threat challenge? These are the questions that will define how we judge Detroit's performance in Game 3 of the NFL season. Key Factors That Shaped the Contest There are several areas we will break down on the show. First is the battle at the line of scrimmage. Detroit entered this game already dealing with injuries on the offensive front, and Baltimore's defensive line has a reputation for creating havoc. How well the Lions were able to protect their quarterback and establish the run will be central to the discussion. Second is defensive resilience. The Ravens can beat you in multiple ways. Lamar Jackson's ability to extend plays, combined with Henry's downhill running, puts pressure on linebackers and safeties. Did the Lions front seven step up, or did Baltimore dictate tempo? On the other side, how did Detroit's pass rush impact the rhythm of the Ravens' offense? Third is coaching and adjustments. Dan Campbell's staff faced a unique test against a Ravens team known for halftime changes and creative blitz looks. The way Detroit adjusted mid-game will say a lot about the growth of this roster and coaching staff. Finally, the turnover battle and discipline factor. Penalties and giveaways in a tight prime time game can tilt momentum instantly. We will examine how those moments shaped the narrative of Game 3. Listener Reactions on the Post Game Show The Detroit Lions post game show is not only about our analysis but also about your perspective. We will take live calls from listeners to capture the raw reaction of the fan base. Were you encouraged by what you saw? Do you feel the Lions are ready to contend with the NFL's elite, or do concerns remain after this test in Baltimore? Whether the Lions came away with a statement win or suffered another frustrating setback, this Game 3 matchup provided plenty of talking points. From explosive plays to coaching decisions, there is no shortage of material to analyze.

Detroit Lions Got Game! The Detroit Lions handled business in their home opener at Ford Field against the Chicago Bears and their new head coach Ben Johnson - Detroit's former offensive architect turned rival. On today's show, we unpack the key swing moments from Bears week, then pivot to a massive NFL spotlight game: a Monday night trip to face the Baltimore Ravens in prime time. Expect a fast, detail-rich breakdown built for fans on YouTube, Spotify, and all of your favorite podcast aggregators. Beating Ben Johnson meant beating your old tendencies. Detroit leaned into a newly formed rivalry to stay a step ahead of Chicago's rules while protecting their own core identity - physical runs to set up in-breakers for Amon-Ra St. Brown, seam conflict for Sam LaPorta, and manufactured space touches for Jahmyr Gibbs. We highlight cleaner operation in the red zone, plus a quieter penalty sheet that kept Jared Goff in rhythm - crucial after Week 1's stalls. Just as important: Detroit's defense closed space on perimeter RPOs and tackled through contact, a must versus Johnson's motion-heavy sequencing now that he's officially in charge at Halas Hall. Bears Takeaways: Countering Ben Johnson, Reasserting Identity Monday Night Football Preview: Lions at Ravens - Edges, Matchups, Levers Baltimore's star power is real - Lamar Jackson piloting an attack with Derrick Henry, Zay Flowers, and DeAndre Hopkins - but early tape shows pass-protection stress (five sacks in two weeks) that Detroit can leverage with line games and disciplined rush lanes. Contain first, squeeze second; win the edges without losing quarterback depth. Meanwhile, Lions DBs must win while the second level throttles Henry on runs. Oddsmakers have the Baltimore Ravens as home favorites on Monday Night Football - no surprise in that building. Kick is set for 8:15 p.m. ET from M&T Bank Stadium (ESPN/ABC), and Detroit's path is clear: own first down, steal a possession (fourth-down or takeaway), and turn green-zone trips into sevens. Books are leaning Ravens straight-up while noting Detroit's strong ATS profile the last two-plus seasons. Two news nuggets to monitor as we near kickoff: Baltimore's edge rotation has been nicked (Kyle Van Noy's status bears watching), and Chris and Jeff spent a chunk of the pod detailing rush-lane integrity to keep Lamar in phase. If that edge room is light, Goff's play-action and quick-game to St. Brown/LaPorta can stress Baltimore's single-high looks and force lighter boxes for Gibbs. If Detroit replicates the Bears template - clean pre-snap, efficient on early downs, violent tackling - and layers it with a spy/squeeze plan for Jackson, the NFC North leaders can flip the Monday-night script in Baltimore.

The Detroit Lions opened their 2025 NFL season with a disappointing Week one loss, but everything seemed to right itself in week two against the Chicago Bears. Where the offensive line struggled last week they dominated this week. Where the Defensive line couldn't buy a sniff of Jordan Love last week they basked in the musk of Caleb Williams. Where they couldn't cover a floor with a rug last week they... You get the idea. What were Detroit Lions fans treated to on Sunday, and what's in store for them next week?

Bisch & Brown vs the Chicago Bears Russ Brown and Scott Bischoff are back this week, and they're looking at what the national media are calling the Ben Johnson revenge game vs. the Detroit Lions. I seem to remember the Lions handing the offense to a no-name tight ends coach and putting an incredible amount of faith and trust in him while enabling his rapid career advancement through the coaching ranks, but what do I know, right? Will Caleb Williams give the ball to Kerby Joseph? How many times? Will Caleb Williams give the ball to Brian Branch? Will it be more or fewer times than he gives it to Kerby Joseph? Also, can the Detroit Lions offensive line recover in time for this week's matchup against the Bears' D-line? The boys have some opinions.

Detroit Lions Still Looking to Launch | Detroit Lions Podcast The Detroit Lions opened their 2025 NFL season with a tough loss on the road to the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field. In our latest episode, Detroit Lions Still Looking To Launch, we break down what went wrong in Week 1 and what needs to change as the Lions prepare for a pivotal Week 2 matchup at home against the Chicago Bears—now led by Ben Johnson, Detroit's former offensive coordinator. Packers Postmortem: Slow Start, Missed Chances The Packers game offered an uncomfortable reminder that the margin for execution in the NFL is razor-thin. Jared Goff and the Lions offense moved the ball but stalled in critical spots. Protection breakdowns and untimely penalties blunted drives, leaving points on the field. Defensively, Detroit allowed Jordan Love and the Green Bay Packers to exploit coverage mismatches and extend plays on third down. On the podcast, we ask tough questions: was this simply Week 1 rust, or do the Lions have deeper issues with discipline and situational football? The discussion highlighted the need for sharper red-zone execution, better balance between Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery in the run game, and more consistent pass rush to relieve pressure on the secondary. Bears Week: Ben Johnson Returns to Ford Field Looking ahead, all eyes are on Ben Johnson's return to Detroit. After architecting the Lions' explosive offense last year, Johnson now brings his creativity to the Chicago Bears as head coach. That familiarity cuts both ways—Detroit knows his tendencies, but Johnson also knows Goff's strengths and weaknesses. In the show, we explore how Dan Campbell and Aaron Glenn can counter Johnson's schemes. Will the Lions lean on tempo and power formations to dictate terms? Can Detroit's defense stay disciplined against Justin Fields' replacement-led attack, featuring heavy RPO and play-action wrinkles Johnson loves to dial up? Fans are eager to see how Amon-Ra St. Brown, Sam LaPorta, and Jameson Williams can exploit Chicago's young secondary in a must-win divisional matchup. Listener Reactions and Season Outlook Our live chat zeroed in on one theme: urgency. A slow start cost Detroit in Green Bay, and with the NFL spotlight growing brighter, the Lions can't afford to stumble again at home. Week 2 against Chicago offers a chance to reset momentum, reclaim toughness in the trenches, and prove the Lions remain contenders in the NFC North.

Detroit Lions Post Game Reaction: Week 1 Loss to the Green Bay Packers Fixable Problems or Deeper Concerns? The Detroit Lions opened their 2025 NFL season with a disappointing Week 1 loss to the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field. As fans sift through the emotions of frustration and anger, the focus turns to whether this was simply bad execution in a tough road environment—or something more systemic. Head coach Dan Campbell insists the problems are fixable. Missed assignments can be corrected, mental errors addressed, and coaching issues cleaned up. Still, the offensive game plan came under immediate scrutiny. Offensive coordinator John Morton is now facing questions after a debut that featured receivers bunched in ineffective route trees, linemen blocking ghosts, and a running attack that stalled repeatedly against light defensive fronts. The Lions offense managed only one touchdown while Jared Goff spent much of the afternoon checking down under pressure. Some fans had flashbacks to Joey Harrington as the short throws piled up, but a closer look shows Goff played smart football given Green Bay's deep two-safety shell. He avoided forcing throws, limited turnovers, and worked within a system that needs better support up front. Leadership, Collaboration, and the Road Ahead Beyond X's and O's, the Lions face an internal test of leadership. Reports suggest Goff had influence on personnel decisions—most notably the move to start veteran Graham Glasgow at center over rookie Tate Ratledge. While Glasgow is experienced, the protection issues were glaring. If quarterback preference factored too heavily into that decision, the Lions must recalibrate who drives the process. Dan Campbell has built his tenure on grit, collaboration, and empowering players. But there comes a time when the coach has to reset priorities and demand execution. Week 1 exposed communication breakdowns and schematic flaws that must be resolved immediately. The good news? It's still early. Sixteen NFL teams sit at 0-1 today. Campbell's Lions have historically started slow, but the season is long. Beat the Chicago Bears this Sunday at Ford Field and the narrative shifts. The roster remains stacked—Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams, Aidan Hutchinson, and others didn't suddenly forget how to play football. The bad news? The schedule ahead is brutal. Road trips to Cincinnati, Kansas City, and Baltimore loom large. Fixes must come fast, or the Lions risk sliding into a hole that talent alone can't climb out of. For now, Detroit Lions fans can breathe, regroup, and remember: it's just Week 1. But as this post game reaction podcast reminds us, the problems on display in Green Bay demand urgency, not excuses. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYFMuXh65-g Let us know what you think about the show by commenting in the podcast thread in the subreddit, or by leaving us a voice mail message via Skype at: Detroit Lions Podcast  Your input will help make the show better, and if you leave us a message on Skype, you just might be featured in an upcoming podcast!

Detroit Lions 2025 Season Kickoff: Final Roster & Season Outlook Welcome to the start of the 2025 Detroit Lions NFL Season with the Detroit Lions Podcast, Chris & Jeff Risdon. Training camp concluded, and “football is back” begins. The Detroit Lions have trimmed their roster down to a streamlined core of 52 players heading into Week 1. With the clock ticking toward kickoff against the Packers, the final depth chart is nearly set - and the stakes couldn't be higher. Coach Dan Campbell made tough choices in the final roster cuts, ultimately arriving at a 52‑man squad - a number short of the full 53 roster limit. Notably, backup quarterback Hendon Hooker was released, solidifying Kyle Allen as the clear No. 2 under center behind Jared Goff. With three spots still open, the team is positioned to make strategic in-season additions to round out special teams and depth. Detroit Lions players to watch now rise under scrutiny. Isaac TeSlaa, a surprise choice to stay, and rising defenders like Aidan Hutchinson will have every rep count. Campbell's calm demeanor and message of internal focus—blocking outside noise and trusting the process—resonate as the roster battle concludes and the season beckons. The Detroit Lions vs. Green Bay Packers matchup is more than tradition - it's a measuring stick for early season trajectory. Betting lines have tightened, with the Packers currently favored by 2.5 points at Lambeau Field, and the over/under set at 47.5 points. Detroit enters as the underdog on the road, yet the rivalry's history still carries weight. The Lions split earlier contests, and the NFC North title hangs in the balance from the opening whistle. This game kicks off NFL Week 1, where the depth chart's health and the Lions' preparedness will show. Who steps up under pressure, who chips in on special teams, and how well the rookies perform will all influence early momentum. Heading into the season, several 2025 Lions questions remain: Will John Morton weather the pressure as a new Offensive Coordinator? Can the offensive line hold firm against Green Bay's edge rush? Which players will emerge from the final roster cut as impact contributors? Will Campbell's leadership help dampen the early-season noise and maintain focus? Football is back, and with it, real answers to these questions are on the horizon. Tune in to this episode of the Detroit Lions Podcast as we break down the Detroit Lions depth chart, spotlight key players, and gear up for the Detroit Lions vs. Green Bay Packers showdown—Season Kickoff is here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dJNCy1TBB_c Let us know what you think about the show by commenting in the podcast thread in the subreddit, or by leaving us a voice mail message via Skype at: Detroit Lions Podcast  Your input will help make the show better, and if you leave us a message on Skype, you just might be featured in an upcoming podcast!

Detroit Lions 2025 Cutdown To Kickoff: Initial Breakdown Chris & Jeff cover the Lions'  status shuffle of Hendon Hooker, roster cut drama, and depth-chart breakdown—a perfect setup for a new episode of the Detroit Lions Podcast. The Detroit Lions have executed their most critical roster maneuver of the year—trimming to the 53-man roster—and currently sit at 52 players ahead of the season kickoff. The most notable surprise was the release of quarterback Hendon Hooker, who enters free agency after a preseason marred by turnovers and inconsistency. Head coach Dan Campbell had already signaled a shift in the QB hierarchy toward Kyle Allen, and Hooker's performance sealed his fate. Other casualties included veteran tackle Dan Skipper, along with several developmental players who were unable to solidify roster spots. The Lions' final roster currently features three potential openings as they continue to evaluate waiver and practice squad possibilities. Depth Chart Moves and Players to Watch With the Detroit Lions roster in flux, attention now shifts to who solidified their place and who remains on the bubble. The most pressing spotlight falls on: Kyle Allen, now cemented as the clear backup QB following Hooker's release. Daniel Thomas, added to bolster special teams and safety depth, immediately becoming a name to watch for situational snaps. Edge depth was shored up with defensive linemen Tyler Lacy and Tyrus Wheat, potentially shifting the Detroit Lions depth chart in ways fans haven't yet calculated. Training Camp 2025 emphasized competition at every level, particularly with remaining developmental players and late-round picks fighting to define their roles. As the regular season draws nearer, every snap becomes a statement. For a complete rundown of all roster cuts, a deep dive into Hooker's release, and who moved up the charts as the Lions enter the final buildup before kickoff, tune in to this pivotal episode of the Detroit Lions Podcast.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GtmB3fjD900 Let us know what you think about the show by commenting in the podcast thread in the subreddit, or by leaving us a voice mail message via Skype at: Detroit Lions Podcast  Your input will help make the show better, and if you leave us a message on Skype, you just might be featured in an upcoming podcast!

2025 Detroit Lions Halfway Through Preseason: Practice Takeaways & Depth Chart Shifts With three days of joint practices in the books and their third preseason game looming against the Miami Dolphins, the Detroit Lions are striking the right balance between refinement and evaluation. In this episode of the Detroit Lions Podcast, titled “2025 Detroit Lions Halfway Through Preseason,” we break down key developments—from standout performances in joint workouts to the Detroit Lions depth chart dynamics shaping up as Training Camp 2025 winds down. Amon‑Ra St. Brown has been nothing short of spectacular. During joint sessions against the Dolphins, he repeatedly outmatched defenders with crisp routes and reliable hands. He opened one-on-one drills with a smooth 40-yard touchdown and continued to dominate in the red zone with back-to-back scores. Teammates and analysts have labeled him a “matchup nightmare”. Meanwhile, “Jamo”, a.k.a. Jamison Williams, continues to stand out this summer as well, showing explosive playmaking ability and drawing that supportive nod of confidence from his teammates and opposing coaches. Detroit's defense looked dominant, holding Miami scoreless over nine red zone snaps and stifling drives with relentless pressure and tight coverage. Players like Aidan Hutchinson, Jack Campbell, and Myles Adams delivered impact—supporting the notion that the defense remains a group to fear. Injuries are reshaping the depth chart: Cornerback Dicaprio Bootle and OL Keaton Sutherland have been placed on IR, prompting the Lions to add cornerback Allan George and offensive lineman Zack Johnson for depth ahead of their next preseason appearance. As Detroit Lions players to watch, keep an eye on Jamo continuing to carve his path, Amon‑Ra sustaining his elite form, and the young defenders who are quietly rising. The adjustment to new coaches and schemes, particularly with OC John Morton in place, has been noticeable, though St. Brown expressed the offense still has growing pains. Looking ahead, the upcoming game against Miami isn't just another preseason contest—it's another chance to redefine pecking order on the Detroit Lions depth chart before the regular season drops. With the roster still evolving, every rep counts. Tune in to this week's episode of the Detroit Lions Podcast as we break down the pressure points, breakout candidates, and the shifting landscape of Detroit Lions preseason football. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vJsxBbaijs Let us know what you think about the show by commenting in the podcast thread in the subreddit, or by leaving us a voice mail message via Skype at: Detroit Lions Podcast  Your input will help make the show better, and if you leave us a message on Skype, you just might be featured in an upcoming podcast!

2025 Detroit Lions Hall of Shame Game: Preseason Takeaways and Concern Rising The Detroit Lions opened the 2025 NFL Hall of Fame Game with a disappointing 34–7 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, raising early alarms as preseason action begins. In this episode of the Detroit Lions Podcast, we dive into key angles—including how Hendon Hooker and rosters fared, what the result means for the Detroit Lions preseason, and how the Detroit Lions depth chart is shaping up as Training Camp 2025 approaches. Detroit's preseason opener in Canton exposed major issues. The Lions committed five turnovers—two on special teams and three through interceptions and fumbles—immediately setting the tone for a sloppy showing. Coach Dan Campbell made his feelings clear postgame: “Turn the ball over and it'll be hard to keep you around.” Kyle Allen started at quarterback and struggled with two interceptions, although he did lead the Lions' only scoring drive. Hendon Hooker came in during the second half, finishing 3-for-6 for just 18 yards and also throwing an interception, further highlighting depth concerns at the QB position. Hooker's performance drew criticism around timing, pocket awareness, and an alarming head hit late during a run. Local analysts are questioning whether he can adapt to NFL game speed, especially after previous injury issues that ended his college season with a torn ACL. Coming off limited snaps in 2024, Hooker needs a bounce-back—fast. This exhibition game setback complicates the ongoing battle for the backup job, with Jared Goff firmly holding the starting role. Despite the loss, some Detroit Lions players to watch emerged as positives. Rookie Isaac TeSlaa made an impact with 2.88 yards per route run and strong blocking, while Ahmed Hassanein demonstrated discipline and situational awareness that align with the new staff's defensive approach. Rock Ya‑Sin also delivered clutch run stops early. Still, the film review of the trenches exposed protection woes and lack of cohesion upfront. Colby Sorsdal's performance after shifting back to guard stood out, but overall line play remains an urgent area for improvement. With Training Camp 2025 imminent, the Lions must regroup. The Detroit Lions depth chart is in flux—especially at quarterback and along the offensive front. New coaches will need to quickly instill discipline and reduce play errors before the regular season. This Hall of Fame Game defeat shouldn't sink morale, but it should motivate corrections. Listen to our full breakdown as we nail down what went wrong, who needs to step up, and which Detroit Lions players are on the bubble entering camp. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifmgoirJl-c Let us know what you think about the show by commenting in the podcast thread in the subreddit, or by leaving us a voice mail message via Skype at: Detroit Lions Podcast  Your input will help make the show better, and if you leave us a message on Skype, you just might be featured in an upcoming podcast!

Detroit Lions Podcast: Risdon Takes on National Media Takes Jeff Risdon looks at the Detroit Lions narratives being pushed by national media members. Will the Lions fall apart in 20205 or will they win their third consecutive title? Will Dan Campbell manage to survive losing both of his coordinators? Will Jared Goff crumble under the pressure of the changes on the line and staff? There are reasons to think the Detroit Lions might take a step back in 2025, but do they outweigh things like not having 22 defensive players on IR or getting Aiden Hutchenson back?

Detroit Lions Podcast: Life After Ragnow, Coordinator Expectations, and Players to Watch in Training Camp 2025 The countdown to Training Camp 2025 is on, with just three weeks remaining before the Detroit Lions hit the field. On this week's Detroit Lions Podcast, we're diving into a packed show as we assess the post-Ragnow era, break down the new coaching staff, set our 2025 expectations, and spotlight the second-year players who could take the next step. We also challenge the growing national narrative that's beginning to doubt this Lions squad, and share the names we're most intrigued by heading into camp. The retirement of Frank Ragnow marks the end of an era in Detroit. The former All-Pro center anchored the line with toughness, leadership, and elite skill—traits not easily replaced. We take a look at the Lions' internal options, what his departure means for the contract and salary cap picture, and how the offensive line may need to evolve without him. Could we see scheme changes under new leadership? Speaking of change, 2025 brings fresh energy to the Lions' coaching staff, with two new coordinators on each side of the ball. Our podcast breaks down how the offensive and defensive identities could shift this season. What will stay true to Dan Campbell's aggressive style, and where might we see new wrinkles introduced during training camp 2025? The jump from year one to year two is often where NFL players make their biggest leap. This Lions roster is packed with 2024 draft picks ready to break out. We highlight several second-year guys we believe could have Detroit Lions Hall of Fame potential—or at least make a major impact this year. National media has started to cool on the Lions after a red-hot 2024, but we explain why writing off this team is a dangerous mistake. With a maturing core, smart front office decisions, and a hungry locker room, the 2025 expectations remain sky high. To close the episode, we share who we're most excited to watch in camp—from breakout hopefuls to veterans fighting to keep their roles.

Detroit Lions Podcast: 2025 OTA Week 1 Wrap-Up, Ragnow Updates, and Preseason Outlook The first week of 2025 OTA workouts is officially in the books, and the Detroit Lions are already making headlines as they set the tone for what could be another dominant season in the NFL. In this week's episode of the Detroit Lions Podcast, Chris and Jeff Risdon break down everything you need to know about OTA progress so far, insights from Coach Dan Campbell's press conference, a closer look at the newly released Detroit Lions preseason schedule, and what the absence of minicamp means for player development. We also address growing questions surrounding team leaders Frank Ragnow and Alex Anzalone. Spring workouts have kicked off with energy and intensity in Allen Park. Players are getting back into rhythm, rookies are getting their first taste of NFL practice tempo, and the foundation is being laid for the 2025 season. With OTA Week 1 now complete, there's been strong praise for the team's preparation and chemistry. However, in a not so surprising development, the Detroit Lions announced they will not hold a traditional minicamp this year. Evidently, the addition of a 4th preseason game (the NFL Hall of Fame Game) and the fact that the Detroit Lions will be starting training camp early as a result caused the team to opt out of having mandatory minicamp this year. This will also help temper the need to answer questions about contracts if players aren't there... One of the biggest storylines coming out of OTA Week 1 is the uncertainty around Frank Ragnow. While the All-Pro center has not made any formal announcements, his absence and cryptic comments about physical wear-and-tear are raising questions about his long-term plans—and potentially his contract status. We discuss what's known, what's rumored, and what the Lions might do next. We also touch on Alex Anzalone, who is going into the last year of his contract and likely wants to rework the deal to match his status as a leader on the defense. Lastly, the Detroit Lions schedule for the 2025 NFL preseason is out. We highlight key matchups, especially those that could serve as proving grounds for fringe roster players and newly drafted talent. For full analysis of 2025 OTA developments, press conference takeaways, the Detroit Lions schedule, and updates on Frank Ragnow, tune in to this week's Detroit Lions Podcast. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFqE8XIuQ0c Let us know what you think about the show by commenting in the podcast thread in the subreddit, or by leaving us a voice mail message via Skype at: Detroit Lions Podcast  Your input will help make the show better, and if you leave us a message on Skype, you just might be featured in an upcoming podcast!

General Manager Brad Holmes has once again showcased his ability to find value, fill critical needs, and add talent that fits the team's culture and identity. On this week's episode of the Detroit Lions Podcast with Chris and Jeff Risdon, we dive into everything fans need to know as the offseason heats up—spring workouts, the Detroit Lions schedule, insights from recent coaching press conferences, and updates on key injury return dates. With the draft complete, eyes now turn to spring workouts, where rookies and veterans are back on the field in Allen Park. These sessions don't feature full contact, but they provide valuable insight into early chemistry, conditioning, and competition. We discuss which NFL Draft 2025 picks are already turning heads and which players are stepping into leadership roles as the team builds toward training camp. This week also brought a round of coaching press conferences, with key insights from positional coaches and coordinators. While Dan Campbell didn't speak, assistant coaches gave us a look into early player development, off-season priorities, and how new additions are fitting in. We break down what these comments reveal about the evolving strategies on both sides of the ball. The Detroit Lions schedule for the 2025 NFL season is officially out, and fans should be excited. With multiple primetime games and several high-stakes matchups, this year's slate could help the Lions continue their rise among the league's elite. We analyze the most intriguing games, where the bye week falls, and how the Lions' travel schedule could impact their performance. Injury-wise, we provide the latest injury return dates for players like James Houston and Emmanuel Moseley—two defenders whose availability could be critical early in the season.

Detroit Lions Podcast: 2025 NFL Draft Targets, Free Agency Moves, and the Future at Ford Field The NFL offseason has officially wrapped, the Philadelphia Eagles are Super Bowl champions, and the Detroit Lions are wasting no time preparing for what could be one of their most pivotal years yet. As free agency slows down and the spotlight shifts to the upcoming NFL Draft 2025, the Lions find themselves in a strong position, thanks to a calculated offseason by general manager Brad Holmes. On tonight's episode of the Detroit Lions Podcast, we'll dive deep into early draft targets, free agency takeaways, and the team's major announcement about staying at Ford Field through 2036. Lions Eye Impact Defenders in 2025 NFL Draft The Lions head into this year's NFL Draft with depth across the board, but the defensive front remains an area of focus. After parting ways with veteran edge rusher Za'Darius Smith and facing uncertainty surrounding Alim McNeill's injury recovery, Detroit is prioritizing the trenches. Three names generating early buzz among draft analysts and fans alike are James Pearce Jr., Derrick Harmon, and Kenneth Grant. Pearce, a dynamic edge rusher out of Tennessee, turned in one of the most impressive performances at the 2025 NFL Combine, clocking a 4.47-second 40-yard dash at 245 pounds. His speed off the edge and first-step quickness make him an ideal bookend opposite Aidan Hutchinson. Harmon, a Detroit native who starred at Oregon, brings interior pass rush upside with 55 quarterback pressures last season—most among defensive tackles in college football. His 4.95-second 40 at over 300 pounds has scouts intrigued about his ceiling as a 3-technique disruptor. Meanwhile, Michigan's Kenneth Grant is a mountain in the middle at 340 pounds, but his agility and strength make him more than a run-stuffer. If the Lions are looking to dominate the line of scrimmage, Grant could be the long-term answer inside. . Holmes Finds Balance in Free Agency, Lions Double Down on Ford Field Brad Holmes continued his disciplined, high-value approach in NFL free agency, re-signing key Lions free agent contributors like linebacker Derrick Barnes and defensive lineman Levi Onwuzurike. In the secondary, Detroit revamped its depth with proven veterans, including D.J. Reed, Avonte Maddox, and Rock Ya-Sin. The additions not only bring experience but help solidify a pass defense that was too inconsistent last season. Just as important as the roster moves, the Lions made a major off-the-field announcement: they're staying home. The team has extended its lease at Ford Field through the 2036 season, affirming their commitment to Detroit and their partnership with the Ford family. In a city hungry for stability and a championship-caliber team, the move signals continuity and long-term vision. With the core in place, cap space smartly spent, and a clear draft strategy forming, Detroit enters this phase of the offseason with purpose. The next steps in the NFL Draft 2025 could be what finally pushes the Lions from playoff contenders to legitimate Super Bowl threats. Tune in tonight—we'll break it all down on the show. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nwXH4NkJTMQ Join the Patreon Crew at: https://bit.ly/2bgQgyj #lions #detroitlions #detroitlionspodcast #allgrit #onepride #nfl #nfldraft #nfldraft2025 #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2025 Learn more about your ad choices.
