Matt Spiegel and Laurence Holmes reflected on the Bears' turnaround season in which they went 11-6 and won the NFC North. They also broke down the Bears' 19-16 loss to the Lions on Sunday in their regular-season finale.
It's a new year, but sports continue to be dumb! We're chatting through some of the silliest moments of the NFL season, perhaps best enshrined by the NFC South champion Carolina Panthers finishing 8-9 and making the playoffs, while the entire NFC North finished with a winning record (and two of those teams didn't make the playoffs).Plus, we're sharing some New Year's resolutions around sports, Sean is thrilled that he has continued to avoid playing fantasy football, and Joey helped a lost dog return home. And how about those Miami Hurricanes?! The College Football Playoff is wild, gang!We also talk about Leslie Jones's terrific memoir.

The most meaningless game of the season is in the books, and honestly? It was a blast. While the doom-and-gloom crowd melts down over a fourth-quarter loss with backups, the real story is what happened around the NFC North. The Vikings and Lions – last year's division darlings – are officially done. Season over. Mock draft season for them. Ryan breaks down why overreacting to this game is a complete waste of energy, highlights the impressive performances from Chris Brooks, Baron Sorrell, and Jacob Monk, and delivers a devastating autopsy on both the Lions and Vikings rosters. Detroit went from "best team in football" to picking 17th overall while dealing with massive roster holes and a questionable coaching staff. Minnesota? An aging roster, a broken quarterback situation with JJ McCarthy, and a defensive coordinator who's almost certainly leaving. The Packers are heading to the playoffs. Two rivals are going home.

Week 18 Math and a New Year Edge Happy New Year from the Detroit Lions Podcast, and welcome to the clean slate of 2026. The Detroit Lions have one game left in the 2025 NFL season, a finale against the Bears. The tug here is real. Win the game, feel good, start 2026 with momentum. Or accept a loss that could lock in a last place schedule. The ideal lane is narrow but clear. Beat the Bears, then hope the Vikings beat the Packers. Minnesota holds the head-to-head tiebreaker on Detroit, so the Lions could still land fourth in the NFC North while finishing with a winning record. It is a strange picture. Eight or nine wins at the bottom of a division. Other divisions wobbling near that mark at the top. That is this year's NFL. The message for fans is balance. Enjoy the stakes, do not let them own your sleep. You play to win. If the scenario breaks another way, accept the payoff in 2026 opponents. Either outcome has value. O-line Shuffle: Glasgow In, Eguakun Out The interior line is moving again. Graham Glasgow could start at center this week after the Browns poached Kingsley Eguakun off the Lions practice squad. Cleveland's front is crushed by injuries, four of five starters on injured reserve, with Wyatt Teller shut down as well. They need a center look for Week 18, so Eguakun gets a shot. Detroit knows what it had. Eguakun showed some steadiness in pass protection against Pittsburgh, then scuffled against Minnesota. The bigger issue was body control and sustain in the run game. Too many reps ended before the whistle. In Detroit he profiled as depth, an interior reserve. The Lions wished him well. That is fair. The roster churn continues, and Glasgow stepping in at center fits the week's needs. Health Updates: Sam LaPorta and the Tight End Plan Sam LaPorta's timeline is clearer. The back surgery kept him out for any potential playoff run, which always felt likely. The target is training camp, and that matters. The Lions missed his hands and his leverage in space. The offense needs more of him, not less. Getting LaPorta right for 2026 is a priority that outpaces any short-term wish. Taylor Decker's Decision and the Ragnow Example Taylor Decker opened the door to retirement. He has not gone there before, but he will consider it this offseason. That honesty resonates. The mileage is heavy, the hits add up, the age clock is loud. The old line is simple, once you are thinking about retirement, it can be hard to unthink it. Still, there is a counterpoint in the locker room storylines. Frank Ragnow was very retired, then felt the pull and tried to come back because he missed the game and felt the team needed him. That could weigh on Decker as he sorts through the choice. For now, it is Bears week. The Detroit Lions can win, feel good, and still find a softer 2026 draw if the Vikings handle the Packers. That is the edge of Week 18. That is the balance this team is walking into the new year. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tOxk_OCxSIE #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #detroitlionsvsbearsfinale #week18tiebreakermath #lastplaceschedule #vikingsoverpackersscenario #nfcnorthfourthplace #grahamglasgowatcenter #kingsleyeguakuntobrowns #clevelandoffensivelineinjuries #wyatttellershutdown #passprotectionagainstpittsburgh Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome back! The Bears are NFC North champs and, despite losing a nail biter to the 49ers, the guys are pretty dang excited. What an offensive performance! Caleb showed off everything he has developed over the season in one game. And Luther Burden! How good is he right now and how good can he be in the future? Beyond this game, who do we want to see the Bears play in the playoffs and who do we NOT want to see? And won't somebody think of Erik Kramer?! Thanks for listening!
The Bears are NFC North champions. We definitely did not see that one coming. After a fun loss (I guess that can be a thing) on Sunday night at San Fran, the Bears are one win away from clinching the two seed and setting up a rematch in the Wild Card round with Green Bay. Oh baby. Dan Doinks leads the way this week for a vacationing Bill Doinks. Enjoy.

Bears lose to the 49ers while almost making the last minute play again. But they stayed alive all game, they've secured a playoff spot, and thanks to the Ravens they're Kings of the NFC North!
The Chicago Bears went toe-to-toe with one of the NFL's best — and while it ended in a heartbreaking 42–38 loss to the San Francisco 49ers, this game still told us a lot about who this team really is.Caleb Williams delivered his best performance yet on the biggest stage, throwing for over 330 yards and keeping pace with Brock Purdy in a primetime shootout. Luther Burden III exploded in his return, Colston Loveland kept making clutch plays, and this offense looked like a legitimate playoff weapon.But on the other side… the defense simply couldn't hold up.We break down the studs and duds, why this loss doesn't define the Bears' season, how the defense let the offense down, what Jaquan Brisker's brutally honest comments mean, and what still lies ahead with playoff seeding on the line.Despite the loss, the Bears still clinched the NFC North — and now everything turns toward positioning, health, and fixing what broke before the postseason begins.

Jordan Love is officially OUT for Saturday's showdown against Baltimore, thrusting Malik Willis into the spotlight with the NFC North division title still within reach. With Lamar Jackson also doubtful for the Ravens, this matchup just became a battle of backup quarterbacks—and the Packers hold every advantage at home. This episode delivers a comprehensive breakdown of the Baltimore Ravens, a team having their worst season since 2021. We examine Tyler Huntley's extensive film history (he's 5-12 as Baltimore's fill-in starter), Derek Henry's dramatic statistical decline from his monster 2024 campaign, and why their aging defense—featuring pass rushers who can't rush and corners having career-worst seasons—presents an exploitable matchup for Green Bay. Key discussion points include the strategy debate around resting starters versus competing for the division, the Ravens' rapidly closing championship window with declining stars at multiple positions, and why Kyle Hamilton remains one of the few legitimate threats on their roster. Plus, breaking injury news on Savion Smith and Quay Walker dealing with illness. The Packers are 3.5-point home favorites. This is a winnable game that could set up everything for the final push.

In this episode, we break down the beautiful chaos of Christmas Day football that saw the Lions eliminated by the Vikings in one of the ugliest offensive performances in recent memory. Max Brosmer's historic 51-yard passing game somehow got the job done, and Detroit's "well-coached dynasty" turned the ball over six times with their season on the line. We dig into what this means for the NFC North race, including the very real scenarios where Green Bay could win the division. Plus, a deep dive into the concerning illness running through the locker room, Jordan Love's concussion status heading into the Ravens matchup, and why Lamar Jackson being doubtful might not actually be good news given our luck against backup quarterbacks. Key discussion points include the Lions' coaching situation and what their collapse says about the value of play-callers versus "rah-rah guys," Jared Goff's brutal performance under pressure, and why this Packers team still has something to prove in these final weeks.

Detroit Sports Podcast -- Doc N Jock Sports w/ John & Adam This episode -- The Detroit Lions 2025 season is on the brink of disaster! Recapping the stunning loss to the Steelers, what it means for the team's playoff chances, do DocNJock even care if the Lions win the next two games?
Christmas Eve Stakes and a Narrow Path The Detroit Lions fly to Minneapolis with a slim, real path. Win at the Vikings on Christmas. Win at the Bears in Chicago. Hope the Packers lose out. That is the math. It is not pretty, but it exists. The other motivator is pride. Going from the best record in the NFC last year to the basement in the NFC North will not sit well with Dan Campbell or his locker room. The Lions are favored. They should play like a team with playoff vitality. Context matters in December in the NFL. Detroit needs urgency and clean execution. The margin is small. The opponent is wounded, not harmless. Vikings Quarterback Shuffle: Max Brosmer Time Minnesota ruled out JJ McCarthy on Tuesday afternoon. A hairline fracture in his hand ends his season. In comes Max Brosmer. He is an undrafted rookie with one start and mop-up reps. He has an arm and workable accuracy. He lost to the Seahawks, which happens to many. He is not Aaron Rodgers or Matthew Stafford. He is not even a fully healthy Jordan Love. That is a reprieve for a Detroit defense that has seen a run of top quarterbacks. The Vikings are battered elsewhere. Christian Darrisaw, their left tackle, is out. They have shut players down after elimination, similar to how the Lions just shut down Kirby Joseph. The depth chart is thin, but the skill talent around Brosmer still gives structure. Detroit must turn those absences into pressure and turnovers. A Defense That Hasn't Allowed a Passing TD in Six Games Here is the problem for the Lions offense. The Vikings have not allowed a passing touchdown in six straight games. That is the first time a team has done it since the 1989 Browns. This is a legit unit. They blitzed the Lions to great effect in the first meeting. They hammered the A gap. They made life hard for Jared Goff. Detroit's passing game has been inconsistent. Goff has been pretty good, but the interior pass protection must be better. Answers versus the A-gap pressure are non-negotiable. Quick decisions. Firm guards and center. Defined hot routes. Detroit Lions Podcast coverage this week centers on interior protection, blitz answers, and a battered Vikings offense. If the Lions cannot block inside, points will be scarce again. What It Means in Minneapolis and Beyond This sets up a grind. Expect Detroit to lean on pass rush against a backup left tackle and an inexperienced quarterback. Expect Minnesota to heat up Goff and test Detroit's A-gap integrity. Field position matters. So do red zone calls when passing touchdowns are hard to find. Win, and the Lions keep the playoff thread intact and roll into Chicago with purpose. Lose, and last place looms. The formula is simple. Protect the pocket inside. Tackle after the catch. Finish drives with touchdowns. It is Christmas in the NFL. Style points can wait. The Lions need a road win to keep the season alive. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7n9Z9vYgPU #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #a-gappressure #interiorpassprotection #jaredgoff #maxbrosmer #jjmccarthy #christiandarrisaw #backuplefttackle #undraftedrookie #sixstraightgames #passingtouchdown Learn more about your ad choices.

The NFL Playoff Picture is coming into full view but teams really muddy-ed the waters with the results of week 16 across the NFL. The Jacksonville Jaguars dropped their statement win of the season on the Denver Broncos and now about 5 different teams can win the AFC's #1 seed. Trevor Lawrence and Co showed they are a legit Super Bowl contending team. The New England Patriots rallied behind Drake Maye and knocked off the Baltimore Ravens to stay a game ahead of the Bills in the AFC East. The Pittsburgh Steelers held on to win a whacky game in Detroit, earning our Hemingway moniker but today DK Metcalf found out that he will be suspended for the final two games of the 2025 NFL season. The Chargers, Texans and Bills all won over teams already eliminated so they could keep pace in the playoff race. And in the NFC, the Eagles took care of the Commanders on Saturday afternoon to feel better about their chances in the playoffs. The Bears had a miraculous comeback against the Packers to further solidify their claim to the NFC North throne. And the fellas breakdown the wild NFC South, a division that both teams, the Panthers and Buccaneers, both seemingly don't want to win.

It's time to sprint through the finish line... kinda. Andy, Brendan!, Kevin Van Valkenburg, and PJ return for what may be the final installment of 2025's Year in Review, spanning from the Travelers Championship through Scottie Scheffler's win at The Open. Before the five-event recap begins, Andy is given ample time to celebrate a Victory Sunday (and Monday!) following the biggest Bears win in years on Saturday night. He talks plenty of smack about a Packers team that the Bears may see again in a playoff game very soon and anoints Caleb Williams as the best quarterback in the NFC North. Fear not, as there is a Nico Echavarria Minute to even things out later in this episode! Part 9 of The 2025 Year in Review begins with KVV handling the Travelers Championship, which was a triumphant week for his man Keegan Bradley and yet another collapse by Tommy Fleetwood. Brian Rolapp also burst on the scene with the official news of his hire as the PGA Tour's new CEO. Brendan picks things up at the Rocket Classic where podcast favorite Aldrich Potgieter won a never-ending playoff at a bomber's paradise in Detroit. LIV Dallas also ended in a playoff, won by Patrick Reed, but Bryson DeChambeau managed to be the star of the show anyway at his hometown event. The John Deere Classic featured another playoff at the end, but PJ instead focuses on a group of "olds" complaining about equity stakes in PGA Tour Enterprises as the biggest news of the week. Patrick Roy's son, Kevin, also provided what may be this podcast's Tweet of the Year! Andy then slips in a "Nico Minute" while discussing Chris Gotterup's breakout win at the Scottish Open. He also shares some enlightening quotes from Scottie Scheffler on links golf and Rory McIlroy's public detonation of PGA Frisco. The Open Championship is a team effort, with KVV handling the pre-tournament days of "Nihilist Scottie" and yet another newsworthy caddie-player breakup. Andy researches Thursday and Friday in Portrush, reminding folks of some early leaders like Jacob Skov Olesen and other Storylines Nobody's Talking About from that week. Remember when Matthew Jordan defeated par? Finally, Brendan brings us home as he walks through Scottie Scheffler's coronation and an emotional weekend for Rory McIlroy in his home country. That'll do it for Andy and Brendan on the feed in 2025, but "The Boys" have been tasked with giving Mr. 1,000 his just due after the powers that be decided to end their 2025 Year in Review at Royal Portrush.

Chris and the fellas get deep with the NFL Week 16 previews. A great slate this weekend with both Saturday and Sunday games has us stoked for the playoff race! The Bears and Packers do battle to claim the NFC North with only a few games to play. Will Caleb Williams or Jordan Love lead their team to victory? In the NFC South, the Panthers and Buccaneers scrape for their own divisional lead. The Jaguars and Broncos meet with the Broncos needing a win to keep their lead in the race for the AFC's #1 seed. The Steelers and Lions meet with the loser having their playoff hopes take a huge hit and you know Dan Campbell will do anything to stop that from happening to Detroit. The Ravens need a win over the Patriots to remain in the AFC's playoff race and it could be a battle between QBs (Lamar Jackson and Drake Maye) that we'll see for years to come. We're also keeping an eye on the Chiefs to see how they compete without Patrick Mahomes and the Browns solely for the Sack Watch of Myles Garrett.
