Podcast appearances and mentions of Matthew Stafford

The Prophet Playoff Theory returns with one of our biggest episodes yet as we rank every NFL starting quarterback from 32 all the way to No. 1. Which QBs are overrated, underrated, and who just missed the elite tier? We break down the Browns' quarterback disaster and what the future holds in Cleveland (3:40). Then we dive into the development of the league's young signal callers, discussing what Year 2 could look like for Cam Ward, Tyler Shough, and Jaxson Dart, and whether they have what it takes to become franchise quarterbacks (23:02)Rashad explains why he's getting dangerously close to giving up on Jordan Love (39:00), while we debate just how high Caleb Williams' ceiling really is (44:10). We also ask if we're placing Justin Herbert a little too high in our rankings, or if he's finally ready to make the leap into the NFL's elite (49:40). Finally, we reveal a major shake-up at the top of our quarterback rankings as the Big Four become the Big Five, with another quarterback earning a spot in our top tier—a player we believe is building a résumé worthy of a first-ballot Hall of Fame career (54:33). Who landed where? Who will spark the biggest debate?

Honolulu Blues: How a Losing Football Team Created a Winning Man The Detroit Lions Podcast hit pause on the recent noise and leaned into what makes Detroit different. Jeff Risdon sat down with author and lifelong Lions fan Joel Walkowski to unpack Joel's upcoming book, Honolulu Blues: How a Losing Football Team Created a Winning Man. The book is a Lions history that doubles as a memoir about fathers, fandom, and getting sober. The book lands on July 14 and mixes hard truth with humor. It is rooted in Sundays, shared rooms, and the way a football team can hold a family together. Walkowski grew up with the Lions as common ground with his father, who had special needs. Barry Sanders became a compass. Games turned into lessons on humility and resilience. He remembers the Utley game. He remembers Reggie Brown. He remembers a Pro Bowl guard killed by a truck while doing yard work. Even in those darkest moments, Barry made the game joyful. Later, during his own fight for sobriety, Matthew Stafford's toughness lit a path forward. The book tour runs through Detroit Book Fest, bookstore stops on the 24th, 25th, and 29th, a statewide library swing from September 17 to October 4, and a Detroit sports roast on October 4. Glory, Pain, and Change in Detroit Wachowski traces how 1950s Detroit helped shape the modern NFL. The Lions ran early two-minute drills. They played under the lights. The city and the franchise moved in sync. Then came decades where everything that could go wrong did. After Barry's rookie year came Andre Ware. A splash move for Pat Swilling cost draft picks that became stars elsewhere. The tragedies around the offensive line were real and human. Ownership loomed over it all. William Clay Ford's long tenure fostered inertia. Russ Thomas became a symbol of staying too long. The uniform patch sparked fan fatigue. Modernization finally arrived under Sheila Ford Hamp. Process, infrastructure, and standards caught up. Simple things like player support, food, and recovery resources improved. The Lions began acting like a billion-dollar enterprise. That cultural pivot echoes the book's core theme: look in the mirror, change, and build better habits. Why 2026 Inspires 13-4 Talk This roster can beat anyone. The offensive line is a strength. Amon-Ra fits as the possession target. Jamo brings a home run threat. The backfield evokes Barry-level excitement. Put it together and 13-4 does not sound outlandish. Twelve and five is in range too. The NFC North picture helps. Stability in Allen Park looks stronger than rivals. Chicago faces the pain of replacing a Pro Bowl center. The lesson of going from hunter to hunted still matters. Even last year, with injuries and breaks going the wrong way against Kansas City, Philadelphia, and Pittsburgh, Detroit stayed on the cusp. Wachowski attended the NFC Championship at his father's urging. He left with perspective, not despair. Community. Memories. A team that changed how people carry setbacks. This Detroit Lions Podcast episode delivered catharsis and clarity. The Lions' story is not only about trophies. It is about how a city learns to get up, again and again, together. #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #honolulublues #barrysanders #jaredgoff #amon-rast.brown #jamesonwilliams #mikeutley #reggiebrown #waynefonts #williamclayford #sheilafordhamp #russthomas #patswilling #andreware #two-minutedrill #nfcchampionship #pittsburghsteelers Learn more about your ad choices.
