We cover a lot from Saturday's Lions preseason loss to the Dolphins. Matt was in the building for the game and has a good recap, including the players he focused on and more. Hendon Hooker vs Kyle Allen looks one-sided right now. The defense had its good moments too. We have the PFF grades from Saturday as well as some story telling from Ford Field. Injury updates and some kudos to the Bears as well.
The Detroit Lions can absolutely win the NFC. Mike Sando from The Athletic said so yesterday on our show and we discuss what the rest of the conference looks like with 3 weeks to go before the season starts. Eagles are the defending champs but after that, it is topsy turvy. Lions getting set for a date with the Dolphins tomorrow in Preseason Game #3. Who should we be keeping an eye on? We talk about it. Also, Tate Ratledge gets an endorsement from Dan Campbell and we have a Call of the Day.
The Lions offense once again moved the football on the Dolphins on Day 2 of the Joint Practices. Jameson Williams, Penei Sewell, and Jake Bates were standouts. And good news, the team got Terrion Arnold back at practice. We discuss how it went in AP today and are also joined by Mike Sando from The Athletic. Mike is known for his yearly "QB Tiers" article. This year, Sando has Jared Goff in Tier 2 and #8 overall. Only Behind Daniels and Herbert ion Tier 2. Mike also discusses his outlook on Detroit in 2025.
Dan Campbell's Lions had a field day in Allen Park today. A dominating performance in their joint session number 1 against the Miami Dolphins. The offense was cooking behind Jared Goff and Amon-Ra St.Brown. Lions really had their way with Miami on both sides of the ball. The same two teams will go at it again tomorrow. Also, Jameson Williams in some fisticuffs, Good news on the injury front, and we go over Mike Sando's QB Tiers. Mike, from The Athletic, will join us tomorrow.
The Lions are gearing up for Joint Practices the next two days as the Dolphins are in town. We go over what to look for on Wednesday and Thursday. Our man Isaac TeSLAA is getting some major run nationally all of the sudden. The rookie WR is showing up in some Fantasy Football sleeper articles. How much will he actually play come September 7th? Packers are banged up and we have a Call of the Day. Pete from Colorado.
The Detroit Lions are two games in to their preseason and we discuss the guys who have elevated their games so far. PFF grades are out from Friday and we recap the numbers and performances. Also, the latest on Mo Norris and his injury from Dan Campbell. We have very good news on him. Also, injuries continue to pile up, the O Line is getting healthy finally and a Za Darius Smith update from off the field.
It was a scary scene at the dome in Atlanta tonight. Lions win the game but lose Morice Norris who was hospitalized after hitting his head on the turf trying to make a tackle in the 4th quarter. The Lions and Falcons decided to end the football game right there after Norris was taken to the hospital. Dan Campbell had good news after the game saying Mo was responsive and breathing. Before the injury the Lions saw Kyle Allen step up and Hendon Hooker take a step back. We also discuss the improved play of the defense and D Line.
The Lions will start Hendon Hooker at QB on Friday night in Atlanta. We discuss that he MUST be the best signal caller on the field of the 4 QBs that play for both teams. We also have an Ennis Rakestraw update (surgery). Colton Pouncy from The Athletic is our guest today as we get ready for tomorrow night's game. Who is he looking forward to watching? What are his thoughts on the O Line? We also dive into Linebackers talk and kick returns.
Another scrimmage today in Allen park and another solid day for the Lions defense. We talk about why the offense is not clicking as much as the defensive unit so far. And we will give you a hint: The O Line has struggled. The Lions need improved depth, especially at Left Tackle. You will hear from GM Brad Holmes on Za Darius Smith and will the Lions top 2 rookies play on Friday night in ATL? Plus, a national host takes a few digs at the Lions.
Tyler Huntley and Teddy Bridgewater have found new homes, should the Lions have signed either of them? We discuss the Hendon Hooker/Kyle Allen predicament and plan. Detroit is not going to veer from their model right now and want to give these guys a chance to compete this preseason. Hooker will start on Friday night when the Lions take on the Falcons in Atlanta. Bridgewater headed to TB and Huntley to Cleveland. We also discuss the Ennis Rakestraw situation and the injury issues that plague him. Vikings WR Jordan Addison has been suspended and we have a Call of the Day.
The Lions are entering Week 3 of Training Camp and their cornerbacks are already making headlines. There are some good thoughts surrounding two and some concern involving another. We fill you in on that plus the team got some bad news on Safety Dan Jackson, who is going to be out awhile. In addition, should Hendon Hooker play the entire game on Friday? It was a thought presented on Fox 2 last night by Will Burchfield and it has some merit. Caleb Williams struggling in Chicago again and a Call of the Day.
The Lions struggled in their preseason opener on Thursday night in Canton. Who played well and who failed according to Pro Football Focus? We give you the top 5 and bottom 5 Lions from last night's game on offense and defense. Plus, Hendon Hooker stood in at his locker postgame and took all the tough questions. A good sign for the struggling QB. We also dive in to issues in the NFC East and we have our Call of the Day.
It was not a good performance by the Lions tonight in the Hall of Fame game. Detroit smoked by the LA Chargers 34-7. Lions sloppy out of the gate and they commit 5 turnovers on the night. Backup QB was a problem as well as none of the starters on either side of the ball played. There were some bright spots and we highlight those and more. Also, the Alex Anzalone update.
The Lions are heading to Canton, Ohio. Thursday is the Hall of Fame game and the team is getting set to face the LA Chargers in their preseason opener. Many of the regulars will not play in this game. We discuss who to keep an eye on for the Lions on the field and Sam Monson from The 33rd Team joins us. Sam is the co-host of the Check the Mic Podcast and he goes in depth on the 2025 Lions and what he sees for this season.
Dan Campbell wanted his regulars to go all out today and so he held a scrimmage in AP. And it was the defense who dominated. Aidan Hutchinson was a force today, which is great news for this team. Certainly a concern is the offensive line, which had its struggles. We discuss that and more. Plus, it appears the Lions have found their starting Center. Terrion Arnold pulls up lame and we play a clip of a national reporter worried about Caleb Williams of the Bears.
