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.

Off The Bench is back weekdays from 10a to 11a followed by The Stone Shields Show from 11a to noon! The Cincinnati Bengals (2-2) host the Detroit Lions (3-1) at Paycor Stadium on Sunday, October 5, 2025, in a 4:25 p.m. ET FOX showdown—America's Game of the Week. With Joe Burrow sidelined by injury, backup Jake Browning steps up amid a Bengals offense averaging a league-worst 19.3 points and 205 yards per game. Last week's 3-point dud in Denver exposed their woes: just 159 total yards and nine first downs. Defensively, they're porous, allowing 30+ points in three of four contests. Ja'Marr Chase remains elite, but Cincy's 2-2 ATS mark as underdogs screams fragility. Home cooking offers slim hope—they score 31 at Paycor but concede 27. Detroit roars in on a three-game heater, leading the NFL with 34.2 points and 365 yards per game. Jared Goff's precision (9 TDs, 2 INTs) fuels a balanced attack, with Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery gashing defenses (top-10 rush duo). New OC John Morton adds wrinkles to Dan Campbell's gritty scheme. The Lions' D, allowing 317 yards nightly, thrives in chaos. They're 3-1 ATS on the road lately, and experts peg a 75% win probability. Odds: Lions -10.5, total 47.5. Simulations favor a tight 25-24 Detroit squeaker, but most see a rout. For Bengals fans, it's survival mode; for Lions, a statement en route to contention. The 2025 MLB Division Series explode into action Saturday, October 4, pitting powerhouses against wild-card warriors in best-of-five thrillers. In the AL, powerhouse Toronto Blue Jays (1 seed) host the surging New York Yankees (WC), where Aaron Judge's bat clashes with Toronto's deep rotation led by Kevin Gausman. Meanwhile, Seattle Mariners (2 seed) face gritty Detroit Tigers, with Tarik Skubal's 14-K wild-card gem eyeing a repeat against Seattle's ace Luis Castillo—expect pitching duels in the Emerald City.

Cleveland Browns Post Game Show: Detroit Lions Reaction to Game 4 Detroit Lions vs. Cleveland Browns at Ford Field Week 4 of the NFL season brought the Detroit Lions back to Ford Field for a highly anticipated clash with the Cleveland Browns. This game had no shortage of storylines. 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. How well Detroit's offensive line managed protection for Jared Goff and created lanes for Jahmyr Gibbs will be central to the conversation. Ford Field has seen its share of offensive fireworks, but this matchup promised more of a grind, and we will examine whether the Lions met that challenge or not. The other side of the ball presented equally intriguing questions. Could Aidan Hutchinson and the Lions' front seven put pressure on Deshaun Watson and contain Nick Chubb? Did the Detroit secondary stand up to Cleveland's passing attack, or were there breakdowns that shifted momentum? These are the themes that will drive our Game 4 analysis. What We'll Cover on the Post Game Show On our post game show, we will dive into all the critical moments from the Detroit Lions vs. Cleveland Browns showdown.

Defensive execution: How the Lions handled Cleveland's two-pronged rushing attack, and whether Detroit generated enough pressure to disrupt Watson's timing. Coaching adjustments: Dan Campbell's approach against Kevin Stefanski's scheme, especially in red zone situations and third downs.

Most importantly, our Detroit Lions reaction segment will bring fans into the conversation. We will be taking live calls to hear firsthand how you saw Game 4. Whether it was frustration with stalled drives, excitement over a breakout performance, or questions about coaching decisions, your perspective will be front and center. Why This Game Matters This NFL Game 4 matchup may not determine the season's fate, but it carries weight in shaping momentum.

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.

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.

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. Listen to the full episode on YouTube and Spotify for in-depth NFL analysis and fan reaction as the Detroit Lions look to bounce back against the Bears and finally launch their 2025 campaign. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqSTxbiTxRg 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!

Munaf Manji and Rod Villagomez talk NFC North and East fantasy football The NFC North and NFC East positional battles are shaping 2024 fantasy football draft strategy with a mix of clarity and confusion. As Rod Villagomez and Munaf Manji break down both divisions, the key takeaway is knowing which stars are safe investments and which depth battles are draft traps . In the NFC East, the Dallas Cowboys' running back room is a muddle. Javonte Williams has underwhelmed, Miles Sanders is fading, and rookie Phil Mafah flashes upside but remains a stash candidate. The safest play is to avoid this backfield altogether. Washington, by contrast, offers stability with Jayden Daniels and Austin Ekeler, who now owns the backfield after Brian Robinson Jr.'s trade. Debo Samuel joins Terry McLaurin to form a strong receiving duo. The New York Giants are plagued by quarterback chaos with Russell Wilson, Jameis Winston, and Jackson Dart all in play; only rookie Malik Nabers stands out as a reliable draft target. The Philadelphia Eagles remain an embarrassment of riches—Jalen Hurts, A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, Dallas Goedert, and Saquon Barkley are all fantasy football studs . In the NFC North, the Chicago Bears spark debate at tight end. Cole Kmet is being overtaken by rookie Colston Loveland, who fits new coach Ben Johnson's system. Detroit offers no real surprises—Jared Goff, Amon-Ra St. Brown, Sam LaPorta, and Jahmyr Gibbs are locked-in fantasy starters. Green Bay remains frustrating: Jaden Reed is technically the WR1, but tight end Tucker Kraft, with seven touchdowns and strong YAC production, is the most reliable late-round target. Minnesota is headlined by Justin Jefferson, but Jordan Addison's suspension and injuries elsewhere leave T.J. Hockenson as a must-have. Rookie quarterback J.J. McCarthy is being drafted higher than Trevor Lawrence, a puzzling ADP that highlights both risk and hype . From a fantasy football draft perspective, managers should avoid crowded backfields like Dallas and unstable quarterback situations like New York. Proven stars from Philadelphia, Washington, Detroit, and Minnesota are priority picks. Emerging tight ends such as Loveland and Kraft are prime late-round sleepers. Monitoring waiver wires in September will be critical as depth battles settle. SEO-rich terms: NFL fantasy football draft strategy, NFC East sleepers, NFC North fantasy battles, Dallas Cowboys running backs, Washington Commanders fantasy outlook, New York Giants quarterback controversy, Philadelphia Eagles fantasy stars, Chicago Bears tight end battle, Detroit Lions fantasy studs, Green Bay Packers wide receiver depth, Minnesota Vikings fantasy football values. The 2024 fantasy football season won't just be decided by first-rounders like Justin Jefferson or Saquon Barkley. League winners will come from reading these positional battles correctly, targeting volume, and jumping fast on waiver-wire value once the season begins. Learn more about your ad choices.

“Sick and tired of being sick and tired…we want the big thing.” David Montgomery Detroit Lions Running Back Our Pivot training camp tour continues as the 2025 NFL season is quickly approaching and we make a stop in the Motor City to catch the Lions practicing with Miami Dolphins as Detroit has been a NFC favorite last 2 years and looks at this season as the one to take care of unfinished business. Sitting with star running back duo, Jahmyr Gibbs & David Montgomery, the two-headed monster is setting the tone for the offense to play fast, gritty and compete. In a rare joint appearance, the dynamic tandem opens up to Ryan, Channing and Fred about the pressure, the chemistry, and the unfinished business driving them into the new season. Reflecting on the heartbreak of the last two seasons, including Detroit's near-miss in the NFC Championship and the emotional toll of falling just short of a Super Bowl as Jahmyr opens up on how David was the one who helped get him through the pain of a costly fumble and kept him up in a dark time. Since Jahmyr's rookie year, his explosive playmaking and Montgomery's physicality complement each other and the duo's embraced a “1A/1B” mindset over ego. Under the leadership of a new offensive coordinator, their game plan may change but the duo said the team is ready to attack opposing defenses with more motion, more versatility, and finding ways to keep both backs involved. Their close relationship with quarterback Jared Goff and how he fits right in with them as the leader of the huddle, and maybe not earning the league-wide respect, but these two tell you exactly why Jared is the right leader for this team. Matching the fire and passion of head Coach Dan Campbell, the locker room has matured into a team that's not just hopeful — but hungry as the cultural shift has transformed Detroit from a punch line to a powerhouse. From laughs to leadership, this episode gives fans a rare, unfiltered look at two stars who aren't just sharing carries — they're sharing the weight of a city's dreams. A few weeks away from kicking off the season, the Lions are roaring to get back to the top of NFC and this year, finish it off bringing home a Lombardi Trophy. Learn more about your ad choices.

For the Chicago Bears under Ben Johnson, they discuss Caleb Williams' camp struggles and weapons like Rome Odunze (projected WR21, a buy-low opportunity amid rookie adjustments), DJ Moore's manufactured touches, Luther Burden's first-year transitions, and Colston Loveland's role behind Cole Kmet at tight end. Running backs include a committee with DeAndre Swift, Roschon Johnson, and Kyle Monangai. The Detroit Lions highlight Jared Goff's efficiency (QB13 last year), Amon-Ra St. Brown's elite status, Jameson Williams' rise (WR26 PPG), and Sam LaPorta's target dip. Running backs Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery remain a dynamic duo in dynasty rankings. Green Bay Packers feature Jordan Love's value despite injury, with Josh Jacobs leading RBs as MarShawn Lloyd sits out; WRs Jayden Reed, Romeo Doubs, Christian Watson, and rookie Matthew Golden cause rotation frustration, projecting no 900-yard receiver. Tight ends Tucker Kraft and Luke Musgrave (buy-low targets) provide depth. Minnesota Vikings focus on JJ McCarthy's upside in Kevin O'Connell's system, Justin Jefferson's slight value dip, Jordan Addison's suspension risks, and an RB split between Aaron Jones (career-high touches) and Jordan Mason (expanded post-trade). Themes cover rookie integration, backfield committees, and buy-lows like Rome Odunze and Tucker Kraft for dynasty fantasy football success. Fantasy Roster Rescue: Get your Roster Rescued!
