Playoff hopes dim after chaotic ending The Detroit Lions saw their playoff hopes fade in a 29-24 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. The finish twisted the knife. Detroit appeared to score on the final snap. The celebration died when offensive pass interference wiped it away. The call, tied to Amon-Ra St. Brown, turned a stunning comeback into an empty box score. The moment fit the day. Frustration. Confusion. Missed chances. This loss stings because it was there to take. The Steelers were banged up. The Lions did not capitalize. Detroit's offense sputtered on the ground. The defense broke late. In the NFL, that combination loses you games in December. Officiating confusion and accountability The officiating crew, led by Carl Cheffers, lost the plot in the final sequence. Communication failed on the field. Players and coaches were left guessing. Letter of the law, the offensive pass interference on St. Brown can be called. Process matters too. It did not look like the crew controlled the situation or explained it. That erodes trust. Earlier, an offensive pass interference flag on Isaac TeSlaa compounded the angst. TeSlaa was pushed by a defensive back into another defender, which triggered the foul. That nuance mattered. Detroit paid for the savvy by Pittsburgh. Calls like these underscore a bigger NFL problem. Transparency is lagging. The league needs an eye-in-the-sky voice. It needs clear, real-time explanations. With gambling tied into every broadcast, the room for opaque officiating is gone. Run game stalls, defense cracks late The Detroit Lions run game vanished. David Montgomery had four carries for 14 yards. His longest went for 17, which means the rest lost three yards. Jameer Gibbs had seven carries for two yards. His longest was six. The other six lost four yards. Jared Goff lost a yard on a designed run. That is a non-starter for a Detroit offense built on balance. It is more galling given Pittsburgh's injuries. No T.J. Watt. No Nick Herbig. Cornerbacks rotating. The Lions offensive line was makeshift, but the execution fell short. Detroit could not move bodies or sustain tracks. The Steelers defensive front won too many snaps on first down. The sticks flipped, and the playbook shrank. Defensively, Detroit blinked in the biggest moments. Two long Jaylen Warren runs in the fourth quarter tilted the field and the clock. Those gap fits must be airtight. They were not. The Lions did not play well enough to overcome that, even without the officiating swirl. Short week to Christmas kickoff An abbreviated week now looms. The Detroit Lions play again on Christmas. The locker room has to flush this and find urgency. The margin is gone. The path is narrow. What remains is pride, correction, and sharper detail. The Detroit Lions Podcast daily notes it plainly. Detroit must own the self-inflicted wounds, demand clarity from the league, and run the ball when it matters. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04GqVJ-4R4s #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #amon-rast.brown #offensivepassinterference #carlcheffers #isaacteslaa #davidmontgomery #jameergibbs #jaredgoff #jaylenwarren #t.j.watt #nickherbig Learn more about your ad choices.

On the Saturday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel and Edgar Snyder & Associates, Post-Gazette Steelers insiders Christopher Carter and Brian Batko preview the team's Sunday 4:25 p.m. game against the Detroit Lions. Can the Steelers defense hold up against the Lions' high-scoring offense? Will Alex Highsmith and Jack Sawyer be able to get pressure on Jared Goff with T.J. Watt and Nick Herbig's availability in doubt due to injury? Will Jalen Ramsey, Joey Porter Jr. and the secondary be able to force turnovers? And will the return of Derrick Harmon help to slow down Jahmyr Gibbs, David Montgomery and the Lions' high-powered rushing attack? Our duo tackles those topics and more, plus gives their keys to a Steelers win and some predictions for the game. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Halftime Hope, Second-Half Slide The Detroit Lions lost control of Week 15 and lost the game, 41-34 to the Rams. They led at halftime. They looked ready for a shootout. Then the offense stalled, the defense bent, and the window shut. Two punts in the third quarter, another to open the fourth, and the game was effectively gone. It felt winnable. It also felt like a hard reality check about where this team stands in the NFL. The Detroit Lions Podcast framed it simply. The Rams were better across the board. That is not fatalism. It is the tape. The Rams' offense moved with rhythm. Their line created space. Their run game dictated terms. Detroit had no sustained answer after the break. At 8-6, the Lions remain talented and dangerous, but hot-and-cold. The inconsistency showed up again when the margin tightened. Where the Match-ups Tilted Los Angeles hit Detroit with heavy football and smart formation choices. The Rams leaned into 13 personnel and forced the Lions out of their comfort plan. Detroit's counter is often to go heavy with an extra linebacker and win with size. The Rams removed that edge. Puka Nacua sat at times, and the tradeoff still favored the visitors because the fronts and fits worked. The Lions saw fewer light boxes and more bodies clogging space. On the other side, the Rams' defensive line was ferocious. Their linebackers flowed clean. Their safeties tackled in space. Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery were hemmed in, snap after snap. Detroit needed explosives to keep pace, and they tried. After a three-and-out to start the third quarter, Jared Goff took the shot everyone has been asking for, a vertical to Jameson Williams. The ball nearly hit. The process was right. The result set up another bad down-and-distance, another punt, and more clock for Matthew Stafford to grind down the defense. Flags, Contact, and Thin Margins The frustration bubbled because contact shaped those swing plays. Goff took a helmet-to-helmet shot on the deep ball. Williams was tripped as he stretched for it and later took contact in the back of the end zone. No flags. Around the league, it often cuts the other way for quarterbacks and vertical routes. On this day, it did not. That is not a conspiracy. It is a reminder that Detroit's margin shrinks when officiating gray areas go against them and the opponent keeps stacking efficient snaps. Strip away the noise and the picture is clear. The Rams executed at a higher level and dictated personnel. Detroit's offense blinked at the wrong time. The defense could not tilt the field. The Lions still have the traits to beat good teams, but Week 15 underscored the gap between “can” and “do.” If they want a different ending, the next three weeks must be cleaner, faster, and more forceful at the line of scrimmage. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjWN45pnJv0 #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #week15loss #41-34 #ramsheavyfootball #13personnel #extralinebacker #lightboxes #linecreatedspace #rungamedictatedterms #thirdquarterpunts #jaredgoffdeepball Learn more about your ad choices.

On his weekly Chipped Ham & Football podcast, presented by FanDuel, Post-Gazette Steelers insider Brian Batko welcomes Ray Fittipaldo to look ahead at the rest of the season and into next year. Are the Steelers finding potential puzzle pieces for next season in guys on one-year deals like Kenneth Gainwell and Asante Samuel Jr.? Is Dylan Cook carving out a real, meaningful role for himself in Broderick Jones' absence? Will Andrus Peat and James Pierre still have their jobs when they return from injury? And how does all this affect Omar Khan's draft strategy? Would he have drafted Kaleb Johnson if he had known Gainwell would be this effective? Brian and Ray then move on to talk about Sunday's matchup with the Detroit Lions. How will the edge rusher depth be tested, with T.J. Watt and Nick Herbig's availability in question? How will they be able to stop names like Jared Goff, Jahmyr Gibbs, David Montgomery and Amon-Ra St. Brown? Will Derrick Harmon help in that capacity? And how might Mike Tomlin handle a potentially meaningless Week 17 game vs. Cleveland with the really important matchup vs. Baltimore on the horizon? Our duo tackles those topics and more.

Post-Gazette Steelers insiders Gerry Dulac and Ray Fittipaldo report from the team's practice facility ahead of its NFL Week 16 matchup with the Detroit Lions. Gerry and Ray identified getting pressure on Lions QB Jared Goff as one of the main keys to victory, so how will Jack Sawyer fare, as he's in line to start if T.J. Watt and Nick Herbig can't go due to injury? How would a good pass rush affect the game? Could DeMarvin Leal and Jeremiah Moon get involved? How will Derrick Harmon help the run defense against David Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs? Is the secondary finding its footing with Asante Samuel Jr.? And what would a win here tell us about this team? Would it change the narrative heading into the postseason? Our duo tackles those topics and more. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Third-Quarter Meltdown at SoFi The Detroit Lions had a halftime lead at SoFi and left with a lesson. The NFL punishes teams that nap after the break, and the third quarter did the damage. Three straight three-and-outs. Short fields for Los Angeles. The defense buckled. The Rams took whatever they wanted. A slip in the postgame summed it up, calling it a three-quarter game before catching it. That is how it played. The game swung in 15 minutes, and the Lions could not claw back. This was not a one-off blip. It mirrored the recent pattern. Since early October the Lions have whipsawed win to loss to win again. The common thread is the third quarter and the struggle to steady the wheel when the script flips. Against the Rams, the reset out of the locker room never came. The Lions waited until the fourth to find rhythm. Too late. Identity Crisis on Offense The Detroit Lions offense lacks a reliable backbone. In the first half, they found it. David Montgomery churned tough yards. Six carries. Thirty-one yards. Early-down success. Manageable thirds. That is how you protect your quarterback against a strong Rams front and a top scoring defense. Then halftime hit, and the plan dissolved. Early-down chuck and duck. Long thirds. Montgomery vanished. Jahmyr Gibbs struggled to dent the wall. The approach drifted from what worked to what played into Los Angeles' hands. The play-caller change was supposed to clarify things. The overall numbers still look fine on paper, especially scoring. But how the Lions get there shifts week to week and quarter to quarter. That is why the roller coaster persists. This team needs a repeatable core idea. Run to set terms. Stay on schedule. Use play action off that. Until the Lions lock into that, the variance will keep biting good game plans in half. Trenches in Trouble Grey underscores the most urgent problem - the offensive line. Tristan Colon is not the answer at left guard. The film and the result say it. If Christian Mahogany is not ready, Miles Frasier has to be the next man up. Graham Glasgow is gutting it out. Taylor Decker is playing through a shoulder. Penei Sewell gets his ankle wrapped every week while carrying the load. The unit is battered, and it shows when the rotation hits the bottom of the depth chart. The offseason priority is clear, but December is here. Protection and the run game are the lifelines for the identity this offense keeps misplacing. Get Montgomery back in early. Make life simpler for everyone across the front. Pass Rush Plan and Secondary Strain The defensive line plan needs a reset. Time to pressure is among the league's worst, and it played out in Los Angeles. Aidan Hutchinson leads in pressures, but they arrive late. That invites disaster for a man-coverage secondary. Puka Nacua and the Rams feasted while Matthew Stafford sat clean and patient. You cannot ask corners to shadow NFL separators for that long and expect a win rate. Fix it with design, not just effort. Heat early. Change launch points. Win on first down to unlock the rush. If the front speeds up the clock, the coverage can breathe. If not, the Lions will keep chasing games they should control. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xb1cCPeMh-U #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #third-quartermeltdown #threestraightthree-and-outs #shortfieldsforlosangeles #ramsfront #topscoringdefense #offensivelinedepth #tristancolon #davidmontgomery #jahmyrgibbs #aidanhutchinson Learn more about your ad choices.

Dallas Lessons, December Stakes December football sets the stage. The Detroit Lions enter the final four-week stretch back on a Sunday rhythm with the Los Angeles Rams looming. The Dallas tape offered a clear tell. The NFL's number one scoring offense looked like itself again. The run game gave the passing game teeth. David Montgomery logged six carries for 60 yards. Ten yards a pop signals clean creases and a line winning at the snap. Jameer Gibbs wrecked space as a receiver. Amon-Ra St. Brown hovered near 100 yards. Jared Goff settled in after a shaky start and finished 25 of 34 for 309. The offensive line needed a beat to sort the rush, then found a groove. Myles Frasier debuted at tackle and delivered a mixed bag that leaned encouraging. The lesson is simple. When the Lions run game finds daylight, everything else breathes. The Montgomery-Goff Efficiency Link Numbers over narrative, and the numbers are blunt. When Montgomery runs efficiently, Goff follows with precision. That pairing has defined this Detroit Lions offense all year. Examples stack easily. Dallas: Montgomery 6 for 60. Goff 25 of 34 for 309. Chicago early: Montgomery 11 for 57. Goff 23 of 28 for 334. Cincinnati: Montgomery 18 for 65. Goff 19 of 23 for 258. Washington: Montgomery 15 for 71. Goff 25 of 32 for 320. Baltimore: Montgomery 12 for 151, including a 72-yarder. Goff 20 of 28 for 202. Volume is not the point. Efficiency is. Montgomery does not need a highway. He needs a crease. When he gets it, play action sharpens, early downs stay on schedule, and Goff's outcomes tilt to quick decisions and high-percentage throws. The rotation with Gibbs keeps the offense balanced and prevents predictable sequences that put the unit behind the sticks. Rams Week: The Tell to Watch The Rams conversation often centers on Matthew Stafford and Puka Nakua. Their passing game draws headlines. The defense deserves equal attention. That unit is tough and better than the chatter suggests. This week comes down to the Detroit Lions offensive line. If the interior moves bodies early and tackles handle speed, Montgomery's first few touches will show it. Four yards here, seven there. Cutbacks available. If those creases appear, expect Goff to operate on time, Gibbs to stress matchups in space, and Amon-Ra to gash zones on option routes. Watch the first three Lions runs. If they gain efficient yards, the script opens. Play action bites. Screens and counters puncture the rush. Special teams or a short field can tilt the math. If the run game stalls, the Rams defense can dictate rhythm. Reinforcements might be on the way. The core truth remains. In this matchup, Montgomery's efficiency is the early tell. The Detroit Lions Podcast will have more as expansion rolls on, but the equation is already on tape. Create creases. Keep Goff clean. Let the offense breathe. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R--tDXoHBxc #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #offensiveline #davidmontgomery #jaredgoff #jameergibbs #amon-rast.brown #mylesfrasier #losangelesrams #matthewstafford #pukanakua #ramsdefense Learn more about your ad choices.

Orgie de points entre les Lions et les Cowboys, avec une victoire des Lions 44 à 30.Une victoire qui porte la marque de Jahmyr Gibbs, alias Sonic, auteur de 3 touchdowns. Son coéquipier David Montgomery, alias Knuckles, a aussi marqué un touchdown.Le jeu au sol a été décisif, mais l'attaque aérienne et la défense avec 5 sacks ont aussi fait le travail. Cette victoire permet aux Lions de se relancer dans la course aux playoffs.Chez les Cowboys, Dak Prescott et ses coéquipiers ont été souvent dans la réaction. Cette défaite compromette leurs chances d'être en playoffs. Et comme une mauvaise nouvelle n'arrive jamais seule, les Cowboys ont peut-être perdu leur meilleur receveur CeeDee Lamb à un moment crucial de la saison.Nithinya Simuong et Kevin Renaudet au micro.Bonne écoute !

Detroit Lions Make A Statement When They Had To The Detroit Lions did not just beat the Dallas Cowboys. They answered a question the rest of the NFL was starting to whisper: could this team still reach the gear it showed last year when everything mattered. A 44–30 win over Dallas at Ford Field in a must win spot is not perfection, but it is proof of concept. This is what the Lions offense is supposed to look like when it breathes, and what this defense looks like when it steals possessions instead of just surviving. Jared Goff, Jahmyr Gibbs and an Offensive Line That Finally Settled This felt like a reset game for Jared Goff. After weeks of interior chaos and happy feet, he played like a quarterback who trusted what was in front of him, finishing with a 121 passer rating and command of the entire field. He did not just lock onto Amon Ra St. Brown. He spread it around. St. Brown went 6 for 92 on one good ankle. Jameson Williams added 7 for 96 in what might be his most complete game as a pro. The star, though, continues to be Jahmyr Gibbs. He is no longer just a fun wrinkle in the playbook. He is the problem defenses cannot solve. Seventy seven receiving yards, a series of ankle erasers in space, and the constant threat that any touch might become a house call. This is the first Lions player since Barry Sanders who genuinely makes you lean forward every time he has the ball. Quietly, the big shift up front was Miles Frazier. Once the rookie stepped in at left guard for Tristan Colon, the protection and run fits stopped looking like a fire drill. Frazier buried people on duo and inside zone, climbed to the second level with bad intentions, and gave both Goff and David Montgomery room to operate. Monty responded with 60 hard rushing yards and looked far closer to the back we saw last season than the guy fighting for air against Philadelphia. If this is who the offensive line can be with Frazier settling in and the tackles relatively healthy, Detroit's playbook opens back up. Shot plays to Williams, option routes for St. Brown, and Gibbs isolated on linebackers is how the Lions offense stresses an entire defense. Defense, Special Teams and the NFC Playoff Picture The Lions defense did not dominate Dallas statistically, but it did what great units do in big games. It turned the ball over. Fourteen points came directly off Cowboys mistakes. Jack Campbell flew around again, DJ Reed battled with CeeDee Lamb until the concussion, and the front made Dak Prescott uncomfortable enough to force high risk throws. Special teams finally flipped a field too. Tom Kennedy looked like he had been waiting five years for those returns, hitting seams at full speed and giving the offense short grass it has been missing all season. That is how complementary football is supposed to look in a real playoff race. In the NFC playoff picture, the win keeps the Detroit Lions alive for more than just a wild card berth. It keeps pressure on Green Bay and Chicago, and it turns next week's trip to play the Los Angeles Rams into a leverage game instead of a funeral. Run the ball the way Carolina just did against the Rams, protect Goff the way they did against Dallas, and Detroit can turn this one statement into the start of a December run. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LvYN107viHw Get yourself a Classic Detroit t-shirt here!

Rod Villagomez and Munaf Manji talk NFL betting for Thanksgiving Day games. Rod Villagomez and Munaf Manji preview the Thanksgiving NFL slate and associated fantasy dilemmas, highlighting how Week 13's early schedule compresses preparation for managers chasing final playoff berths. They open with Packers-Lions, noting Detroit's strong ATS history at home under Dan Campbell and the matchup's volatility, with questions surrounding Josh Jacobs' health and Sam LaPorta's absence. Munaf favors the game total over 48.5 and projects Jared Goff to shoulder more offensive load, while Rod echoes concern about Detroit's run-game efficiency versus Green Bay's stout rush defense. Prop discussions lean under on Jameer Gibbs rushing, over on Jameson Williams receiving, and cautious optimism for Jordan Love's pass-catchers. Moving to Chiefs-Cowboys, both hosts frame the matchup as a clash of two widely polarizing franchises, debating Dallas' impressive comeback and second-half defensive shutout against Philadelphia versus Kansas City's regression in one-score games. Munaf backs Dallas +3.5 and expects a pass-heavy Kansas City approach, highlighting Patrick Mahomes' yardage upside and Rashee Rice's emergence, while Rod argues that the Cowboys' shifting receiver hierarchy—George Pickens ascending while CeeDee Lamb shows uncharacteristic miscues—creates fantasy uncertainty. They explore prop angles including Kareem Hunt rushing overs, noting his rising usage and recent efficiency. For the nightcap, Bengals-Ravens, they question Cincinnati's decision to rush Joe Burrow back but still prefer Bengals +7 given Baltimore's weak ATS record as a home favorite and historically close division games. They forecast a potential shootout, recommending Joe Burrow passing overs, Derrick Henry rushing overs based on Cincinnati's vulnerable run defense, and Chase Brown unders on rushing but overs on receiving. In fantasy flex debates, they compare David Montgomery vs. Romeo Doubs, Emmanuel Wilson's viability if Jacobs sits, Mike Gesicki as a T-Higgins-replacement option, and the perpetual headache of choosing a Chiefs wideout, with Xavier Worthy a viable pivot given Rashee Rice's injury status. They close by reminding listeners to enjoy football without abandoning bankroll discipline, emphasizing that Thanksgiving should remain a day of food, family, and measured wagering rather than reckless betting.

First-Half Flames, Second-Half Fix The Detroit Lions survived a nail biter against the New York Giants. It was a big NFL win, but it started ugly. The defense looked disorganized. Misfits. Miscommunication. The Giants scored more in the first half than Philadelphia managed across four quarters. That set the tone. The week's theme inside Allen Park was firefighting. Defensive coordinator Kelvin Sheppard called his unit the firefighters. Dan Campbell leaned into it too. In the first half, everything burned. After halftime, the Lions put the fire out. Structure returned. Tackles stuck. The scoreboard slowed. That resilience, not the chaos, is the lasting note. This Detroit Lions Podcast recap keeps the focus on cause and effect. The early mess forced the defense to respond. They did. The win stands because they adjusted, not because the opening plan worked. That is a useful truth with a short week ahead. Jahmyr Gibbs, Star Power in Full View Jahmyr Gibbs tilted the field. Again. He is the biggest offensive star the Detroit Lions have had since Calvin Johnson. Before that, Barry Sanders. That is the lineage described, and the tape backs it. Gibbs changes leverage with one cut. He erases angles in space. He is lethal in the run game and the pass game. The national conversation is finally catching up to what Detroit already knows. Touches will always be the debate. Some want more Gibbs. Some want more David Montgomery. The truth is simpler. There is only one player on this offense, and maybe in this league, who can do what Gibbs can do snap to snap. He must be a focal point against Green Bay on Thanksgiving. Every motion, every screen, every counter that stresses rules should run through 26. Campbell's Call Sheet and the Sideline Clock Dan Campbell taking over play calling midseason was a gamble. It has lifted the offense, but it has a cost. Game management suffered against the Giants. Timeouts were misused. The challenge process faltered. Too much traffic on the headset, and too much on one person. That is the trade-off when the head coach calls plays instead of John Morton. The Lions can live with some inefficiency if the sequencing and feel stay hot. But the margin is thin with six games left and the Packers next. Campbell must evolve weekly. Clean the clock work. Streamline the challenge mechanics. Keep the creativity. The team cannot keep fixing the plane at altitude. Amon-Ra's Pain, Packers on Deck Amon-Ra St. Brown is playing hurt. The drops tell the story. He had two all of last season. He has two or three in back-to-back weeks now. And yet he still led the team in catches and yards. The toughness is obvious. The production remains. That balance will matter on Thursday at Ford Field against the Packers. The enemies list shifts after a win like this. Green Bay tops it. Firefighting metaphors can stay in the past. The Detroit Lions need clean starts, Gibbs in rhythm, and a calmer sideline clock. Do that, and the next Detroit Lions Podcast will be breaking down a statement Thanksgiving win. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvi2PQZFnYA #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #newyorkgiants #miscommunication #kelvinsheppard #firefighters #dancampbell #playcalling #gamemanagement #timeouts #challengeprocess Learn more about your ad choices.

If regenerative agriculture is about rebuilding the foundations of our food system, then soil is where that story starts.Geologist and author David Montgomery has spent decades tracing how the health of our soil shapes everything else: the nutrition in our food, the resilience of our farms, and the long-term fate of entire civilizations. What he shows is both sobering and energizing. We have degraded our soils at an astonishing pace, yet we now understand enough about how they actually work to turn the tide.In this conversation, David helps us zoom out. He connects the collapse of ancient societies to the vulnerabilities we see in modern industrial agriculture, and he lays out what farmers around the world are doing to rebuild soil faster than it erodes. If regeneration is the goal, soil biology is the map.In this episode, we get into: • How soil degradation has shaped the rise and fall of societies • The real consequences of erosion, tillage, and synthetic nitrogen • Why soil microbes are central to nutrient density and farm resilience • What regenerative farmers are proving about soil recovery timelines • Three core principles that can rebuild fertility at scale • Why technology must complement, not replace, ecological understanding • The policies and incentives needed to make soil health the baseline, not the exceptionMore about David:David R. Montgomery is a MacArthur Fellow and professor of geomorphology at the University of Washington. He studies landscape evolution and the effects of geological processes on ecological systems and human societies. An author of award-winning popular-science books, he has been featured in documentary films, network and cable news, and on a wide variety of TV and radio programs. His books have been translated into ten languages. He lives in Seattle with his wife, and co-author, Anne Biklé.

Detroit Lions vs Philadelphia Eagles Post Game Show: Game 11 Breakdown Lions Face the NFC Benchmark in Philadelphia The Detroit Lions traveled to Lincoln Financial Field for a Week 11 prime time clash with the Philadelphia Eagles, a match-up that could carry major playoff implications in the NFL. On our post game show, we will dive into how Detroit handled one of the league's most complete teams, with particular focus on the continued story line of Dan Campbell taking over play-calling duties from offensive coordinator John Morton. This game represented another opportunity for Detroit to test itself against an NFC powerhouse known for its physicality, depth, and disciplined execution. We will examine how Campbell's offensive rhythm compared to the past few weeks and whether his leadership on the sideline helped the Lions stay poised in a challenging environment. Jared Goff faced one of the most feared defensive fronts in football, featuring Jalen Carter, Hasson Reddick, and Josh Sweat. How effectively did the offensive line protect him, and were the Lions able to establish the run with Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery? We will also break down whether Detroit's receivers — Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams, and Kalif Raymond — were able to find openings against an aggressive Eagles secondary. Key Topics on the Post Game Show On this week's Detroit Lions post game show, we will focus on several story lines from the Detroit Lions vs Philadelphia Eagles match-up: Play-calling evolution: How did the offense look with Campbell again directing the calls? Was it more aggressive or measured against one of the best defenses in the league? Defensive test: Could Aidan Hutchinson and the Lions' front slow down Jalen Hurts, DeVonta Smith, and A.J. Brown? Was the secondary able to handle the Eagles' vertical game? Game management and execution: We'll evaluate red zone results, clock decisions, and whether Detroit's game plan stood up to Philadelphia's high-pressure moments. Injury impact and depth: Both teams entered the game with players nursing injuries. Which roster adjusted better, and did Detroit's depth on the line hold up under pressure? Listener Reactions and Fan Calls Our Detroit Lions reaction segment remains one of the most popular parts of the show. We will take live calls from fans to capture the pulse of the fan base after this high-stakes Game 11 match-up. Did Campbell's play-calling changes bring out the best in the team, or did the Lions struggle to find rhythm against the Eagles' front seven? No matter how this one ended, Detroit's performance in Philadelphia will serve as a critical measuring stick for how close this team is to contending with the NFL's elite.

Campbell Takes the Wheel, Offense Floors It The Detroit Lions put their stamp on Week 10. They routed the Commanders by 22. They hung 44 and rolled up more than 550 yards. The record moved to 6-3. First place in the NFC North followed after the Eagles beat the Packers. The headline was simple. Dan Campbell took over the offense, and the Detroit Lions looked like themselves again. This was the most dynamic snap-to-whistle showing of the season. The calls came out fast. The ball came out faster. The NFL is a rhythm league, and Detroit lived in rhythm. Jared Goff hit receivers in stride and let speed do the rest. Crossing routes stacked yards after catch. Tendencies softened. The heavy 12 personnel looks did not announce run and stall drives. The Detroit Lions added layers, kept Washington off balance, and strung answers together all afternoon. Rhythm Over Hero Ball The Detroit Lions Podcast broke down one sequence that captured the shift. Pony personnel out of the gun. Two backs on the field. Jahmyr Gibbs flared to the flat as the hot answer. David Montgomery inserted and stoned a free rusher. Goff hit the outlet and the sticks moved. Simple. Clean. Smart. That is what this offense can be when the first answer is built in. Concepts stacked nicely. Shallow crossers for Jameson Williams to run. A dig when leverage opened. Amon-Ra St. Brown on the slant. St. Brown on the touchdown off levels. The throws were on time. The spacing was sharp. The result was chunk gains without forcing low-percentage hero shots. Protection looked steadier because the plan cut the defense's teeth. Get it out. Make them tackle. Most of all, the approach felt unpredictable. Motions and formations did not telegraph intent. The Detroit Lions leaned into what their roster does best. Gibbs in space. Montgomery in pass protection and as a hammer. Goff as a point guard. The unit played connected football, and Washington never found the answers. Locker Room Temperature and What Comes Next There was also an undercurrent here. The previous play-caller's public criticism of the offensive line lingered. That kind of commentary belongs in the building. Not in front of microphones. The change arrived like a soft firing or a mutual reset. Either way, Campbell's voice carried, and the offense responded. Trust matters. Fourth-and-two calls tell a team everything. Campbell's aggression and clarity fueled confidence. Players know when the head coach believes in them. They played like it. Detroit sits at 6-3 after the statement win. The next test is heavy. The Eagles await on Sunday night in Week 11. That stage will demand the same tempo, the same answers-first sequencing, and the same discipline that beat Washington. Keep the ball moving. Keep Goff in rhythm. Keep Gibbs and Montgomery involved. If the Detroit Lions keep this identity, they will look like one of the most balanced units in the NFL when the lights come on again. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YRb8rTxJSiI #DanCampbelltookovertheoffense #JaredGoff #JahmyrGibbs #DavidMontgomery #JamesonWilliams #Amon-RaStBrown #Ponypersonnel #12personnellooks #yardsaftercatch #fourthandtwocalls Learn more about your ad choices.

Minnesota loss exposes offensive slide The Detroit Lions walked into Minnesota and left with a gut punch. A divisional loss. A game that slipped because the offense never found its level. The Detroit Lions Podcast broke down why. Detroit punted five times, turned it over once, and handed back a takeaway after Terrion Arnold's first career interception. Amon-Ra St. Brown said the room has moved on. It still stings. The Vikings scored 27, but the focus stayed on Detroit's offense. Outside of the Kansas City game, the defense has mostly held up its end. This was about execution, rhythm, and answers that never came. Protection math and third down failure Minnesota dictated terms. Blitzes. Stunts. Pressure from depth and width. Detroit's protection rules could not keep up, and the Vikings kept forcing Jameer Gibbs into pass protection. He lost too often. He could not anchor against those looks, and the Lions repeated the exposure. On film, the structure often broke the same way. Left tackle Taylor Decker and left guard Christian Mahogany passing off to one defender. Right tackle Penei Sewell and right guard Tate Ratledge fanning wide. The edge looks widened. The interior squeeze vanished. The free rusher met Gibbs. Jared Goff saw bodies in his lap. That distortion bled into third down. Detroit is converting about 37 percent, 37 of 102, tied with Tampa Bay. Last season, the Lions lived near 47 percent. Ben Johnson is gone. John Morton is calling it now. The sequencing and solutions are not landing on money downs. Play calls asked backs to protect instead of punish. Hot answers were late. The pocket location felt static. That is how an NFL offense with St. Brown, Jahmyr Gibbs, and David Montgomery punts five times in a winnable game. Defense held up; special teams did not The defense was not perfect. The Vikings ran the ball with success, and JJ McCarthy's touchdown to Justin Jefferson was a perfect throw and a better catch. Yet individual efforts flashed. Jack Campbell played fast and urgent. Derek Barnes filled downhill. Arnold competed well. Amik held Jefferson under 50 yards despite the score. The bigger leak came on special teams. Kick returns flipped field position. Punt returns stung. A missed kick and coverage busts stacked stress on a struggling offense. That is a tough parlay to overcome on the road. Week 10 vs. Commanders: fixes on deck Washington is next in Week 10. The mandate is clear. Protect Goff with different answers. Keep Gibbs out of solo pass pro against overloads. Use chips and condensed splits to alter edges. Build more quick game on early downs to avoid third-and-long. Lean on tempo to blunt pressure tells. Let Montgomery set tone without the ball on the ground after his fumble. If the Detroit Lions clean the protection math and regain third down timing, the offense will look like itself again. If not, the same issues will follow them into another Sunday. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Bioneers: Revolution From the Heart of Nature | Bioneers Radio Series
The profit-hungry agribusiness empire of the 20th century institutionalized farming practices that continue to degrade soils across the U.S. and globally. We face a fork in the road: collapse or regeneration? The good news is that we know what we need to begin an agricultural and ecological renaissance – a literal rebirth. Biologist Anne Biklé and geologist David Montgomery share one of the good news stories that show how the solutions residing in nature surpass our conception of what's even possible.
Detroit Lions Podcast: Bye-Week Sharpening, Vikings Test at Ford Field The Detroit Lions come out of the bye at 5-2 with a chance to plant a flag atop the NFL conversation and the NFC North. This week's show framed Sunday as less about a reset and more about a reveal. Dan Campbell's group has shown flashes in all three phases, but the complete game has not landed yet. With Minnesota visiting and Ford Field loud, the expectation is clarity on identity, execution, and urgency. Offense on the Clock: Jared Goff, Jamo, and the Run Script The hosts put Jared Goff squarely in focus. Minnesota under Brian Flores sends pressure from everywhere. That puts premium value on protection IDs, early-down efficiency, and Goff's pre-snap control to punish single coverage rather than settling for third-and-long checkdowns. The desk made no secret of it: this is a statement spot for Detroit's QB to orchestrate a complete, four-quarter effort. Receiver usage also drew attention. Jameson Williams was the offensive pick to watch, with the note that when Jamo pops, the whole structure loosens and the Lions look like themselves. Expect shot plays layered off quick-game rhythm to keep Flores honest. In the run game, the show highlighted how defenses are spilling runs and compressing edges, which challenges tight end blocks and condensed formations. The ask this week is decisive crease hits for Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery, plus cleaner edge fits so outside zone becomes an explosive option again. The interior duo of Christian Mahogany and Tate Ratledge earned praise for growth, but the emphasis was on translating that into first-down wins that unlock the full playbook. Defense with Teeth: Kelvin Shepherd, Alim McNeil, Branch, and Hutch On defense, Kelvin Shepherd has leaned into disguise and pursuit angles that rattled Baker Mayfield before the bye. Now the personnel sharpen. Alim McNeil's interior gravity returns as a central theme. His ability to collapse the pocket straight into the quarterback's lap gives Aidan Hutchinson and the edges favorable one-on-ones and forces rushed decisions. The show flagged Minnesota's banged-up tackles and a rookie quarterback as an opportunity to flush without freeing escape lanes. That is Shepherd's blueprint. Coverage should look deeper and faster with Brian Branch back. The plan anticipates Branch closer to the line in leverage roles while Detroit mixes man-match with rally-and-tackle rules on the perimeter. With DJ Reed trending toward a return soon and Terrion Arnold working back, the “Legion of Whom” that carried Detroit into the break now gets reinforcements. Add in Aidan Hutchinson fresh off his extension and the hosts could not hide their expectation that Detroit dictates down-and-distance and forces Minnesota to play left-handed. Bottom Line The spread ticked up late in the week, but the show cautioned against scoreboard math in a divisional game. The directive is simpler. Start fast. Own first down. Trust Goff to attack pressure. Let McNeil and the front set the terms. With the bye behind them and the building behind them, the Detroit Lions have the pieces to turn a strong start into a November surge. Now it is time to put the complete game on tape. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5BoNgTG3Ls Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Detroit Lions Podcast: Bye Week Breakdown and the Road Ahead The Detroit Lions are resting at 5-2 heading into their bye week, a well-earned pause after a physical stretch that tested depth, discipline, and coaching adaptability. In this week's episode of The Grey Area, the focus is on Dan Campbell's leadership, John Morton's offensive adjustments, and Kelvin Shepherd's rapidly evolving defense. The conversation also revisits the state of officiating across the NFL, plus the impact of returning players like Alim McNeil and Malcolm Rodriguez on what's shaping up to be a legitimate contender in Detroit. Dan Campbell's Culture and the Coaching Evolution The Lions' turnaround continues to be a reflection of Dan Campbell's culture. The podcast digs into how Campbell's process-driven approach has stabilized the organization, even amid significant coaching turnover. Both coordinators—John Morton on offense and Kelvin Shepherd on defense—were groomed internally, proof that Campbell and his staff are developing not only players but leaders. The Lions have carried Campbell's personality onto the field: gritty, self-aware, and never satisfied. Offensively, Morton has been under the microscope. Through seven games, the Lions rank top 10 in nearly every major category, but their inconsistency on third down (20th in the NFL) has drawn scrutiny. Jared Goff has been efficient but not perfect, completing over 70 percent of his passes while facing more interior pressure than at any point in his Lions tenure. Campbell acknowledged during the bye that the team's offensive inefficiencies—especially on third and long—will be a point of emphasis in the coming weeks. Despite those struggles, Morton's system remains effective because of the personnel's versatility. Goff's timing and ball placement keep drives alive, while Amon-Ra St. Brown's route precision continues to anchor the passing attack. The run game, powered by Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery, remains among the NFL's most productive. Morton's challenge now is translating that success into sustained drives in high-leverage moments. Kelvin Shepherd's Defense and the Next Chapter On the other side of the ball, Kelvin Shepherd's defense has been the revelation of the season. The podcast highlights his linebackers-first philosophy and creative use of disguise. With Alim McNeil healthy again, the defensive front has regained its push, freeing Aidan Hutchinson and the edge rushers to attack more freely. Shepherd's background as a former linebacker is evident in how disciplined this unit has become in pursuit angles and tackling. Malcolm Rodriguez, who returned to practice this week, brings another layer of toughness and range to the linebacker corps. Meanwhile, reinforcements in the secondary, including Brian Branch and Terrion Arnold, are expected to solidify what has become a confident and opportunistic defense. The Lions exit their bye not just healthier but sharper. Their blend of physical identity, coaching innovation, and locker-room leadership has them firmly positioned among the NFL's elite. Campbell's message remains simple: the foundation is built, but the climb is just beginning. With a defense ascending under Kelvin Shepherd, an offense still capable of fireworks under John Morton, and Jared Goff steering the ship, the Detroit Lions have everything they need to turn belief into something far more tangible this season. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5PpzTw7Kb4Y #LionsCultureShift #DefenseLeadsTheWay #ByeWeekRefocus #NextManUpLions #NewEraDetroit Learn more about your ad choices.
