Detroit Lions Podcast Episode 241 ? Detroit Lions & Chicago Bears Post Game Show. 66 minutes.

In this live episode of The Detroit Lions Podcast, Chris is joined by YouTube Slowlights hero, Andy ?Sandman? Morse for a tough show about the Detroit Lions loss to the Chicago Bears. We also take your calls ? and a one in particular asks about what has become of this Lions team. This was a game the Lions were expected to win, again. With late notice that Matthew Stafford wouldn?t play Jeff Driskel did his best to keep the Lions in the game until the very end.

Detroit Lions Podcast Laments Lions Injuries.
Chris woke to the news of Matthew Stafford being out for today?s game and really wanted to go back to bed. This Lions team is built upon the idea that the offense will score enough point to win games. The entire team has been place upon Matthew Stafford?s shoulders. With an injury there, the Lions are in big trouble. Jeff Driskel did an admirable job leading the team on late notice, but it wasn?t enough to overcome the hapless Chicago Bears.

The Lions basically populated the field with second stringers today. The team is made of critical injuries and walking wounded amongst its star players right now. The produce on the field showed just how bad things are. With this loss, it?s time to write off the Lions playoff hopes for the season, but there are a number of things this team can still accomplish.

Pride Of Detroit Lions PODcast considers the Lions? ticking clock. 78 minutes.
After the loss to the Bears, we interrogate the immediate future for the Lions franchise.

Some weeks just get you.

What started as a promising day for the Lions to rebound against a hated foe across the lake met grim meathook reality when news broke in the early hours that Matthew Stafford would not play against the Chicago Bears, immediately plummeting the Detroit Lions into an abyss of misery and sin. What remained just wasn?t enough against the Bears defense and a half-comatose Mitchell Trubisky.

We discuss this matter on the PODcast, of course, but there?s more to discuss for the future of the Lions at this point. Three names in particular come up, and it?s where we start as the Lions preemptively end their season with seven to play. Fans and media alike turn their thoughts to the offseason, the draft and potential pink slips, and we?re doing the same.

Download and subscribe to the Pride of Detroit PODcast on your favorite platforms.

This week on the PODcast.
Recapping a nasty ugly game.

Jeff Driskel wasn?t THAT bad for his first game.

...but the future is coming down and it?s not looking pretty.

The beginning of the end for Jarrad Davis.

Will Stafford sit or play these next seven games?

How long of a rope does Matt Patricia have left?

Mailbag is back!

Readers ask about Stafford. Is he ?too tough? for his own good? When will retirement come for him?

Draft talk begins, to Jeremy?s chagrin. The crew dabbles in OT and LB prospects.
