What the podcasts are saying about the Detroit Lions
Verbatim excerpts from published episode transcripts, linked to the moment each one was said.
“Your Bears pulled off there at the end. I think we're heading for close to that again, at least with the Bears, Packers, Lions. I'm actually gonna take the Lions. I take the Lions for a bounce back.”
“Let's fill in the blank for the Lions. Then we'll move to the Packers. If the Lions don't win the division, and you're wrong about this, it's because of blank.”
“Lions hired Drew Petsing as their new offensive coordinator. Now, Lakwan, you've been pretty critical of Drew Petsing, but you seemed excited for what this means for Sam Laporta next year.”
