Pride Of Detroit Lions Blog PODcast celebrates, hedges a Lions win. 71 minutes.
Sloppy and daredevil, but when you put it in the win column it?s enough on the day. Let?s PODcast.

Sometimes you just fly in banged up and bruised and all worse for year, and maybe that?s good enough. You?re just hanging on with a foul breath but as long as the boss don?t smell it you?re fine.

That?s where we are with this Lions victory. We?re still going to play ?Africa? and all, but maybe make a trip to the restroom to wash your face and hide the bags under your eyes, yeah? This was a rough one, but pretty fun.

For PODcast, this was also our first foray into a live digital audience by simulcasting on our Twitch channel. A lot more dynamic stuff, a lot more chances for hijinks and fun and everything that makes our PODcast special. Let?s go.

This week on the PODcast:
WE DID IT LIVE.

WE GOT A WIN.

Yeah but in hindsight, maybe not a great indicator for the future of the team?s season.

In the monologues, we explain our fears and hopes for what was different from this game and the Cardinals tie.

Position report cards get a little rough?especially for special teams.

Is Tyrell Crosby actually better than Taylor Decker for the offensive line?

Darius Slay was really good this game?but you wouldn?t know it looking at the box score. We explain why.

Thanks to Twitch chat, mailbag is back! We talk about Melvin Gordon?s ill-advised tweets, Ty Johnson, Trey Flowers, how to find hope (ANY HOPE AT ALL) against the Kansas City Chiefs and the best places to get hot dogs.

KEY QUESTIONS: How have Lions improved from Week 1 to Week 2?
Lions.com

Darius Slay?s entire 4th quarter vs. Chargers was dominant.
The veteran cornerback redeemed himself by securing the win after a bumpy start.
Stealing the show is nothing new for Detroit Lions star cornerback Darius Slay. After all, he?s called ?Big Play? Slay for a reason. But part of what made Sunday?s performance unique was his complete 180?from outmatched to back on top.
Pro Football Focus gave Slay the lowest coverage grade of his career at 27.7 in the first three quarters against the Los Angeles Chargers. He was beat time and time again by star receiver Keenan Allen?Philip Rivers? No. 1 target who he threw to 15 times on Sunday.
"Big Play" Darius Slay certainly lived up to his nickname with a game-sealing INT in Week 2.

4th Quarter:
91.5 Coverage Grade (3rd-highest in career)
1/3 11 Yards 1 INT 5.6 Passer Rating Allowed.
Quarters 1-3:
27.7 Coverage Grade (Lowest of career)
5/8 70 Yards 90.6 PR Allowed.

Slay then completely turned things around in the fourth to earn the third-highest coverage grade of his career at 91.5. A big part of that, of course, was this pivotal interception with about a minute left in the game:
Darius Slay rated his all-time favorite INTs after the game.
1 -- Minnesota 2016
2 -- Today
3 -- Philly 2016
The Lions went on to win, 13-10. Slay said this was his second favorite of his 18 career interceptions in 91 games.
