Pride Of Detroit Lions Podcast: 2019 NFL trade deadline preview with ESPN?s Lions reporter Michael Rothstein. 72 minutes
What will the Lions do in the next 48 hours? ESPN?s Lions beat reporter breaks it down.

The rumors are already starting to churn with the Detroit Lions and the upcoming trade deadline at 4 p.m. ET on Tuesday. Detroit already made one significant move, sending Quandre Diggs to Seattle for a swap of a seventh-round pick to a fifth-round pick.

But it just feels like the Lions aren?t done yet. A running back?perhaps Kenyan Drake?seems like a foregone conclusion, especially after a underwhelming performance from Kerryon Johnson?s backups on Sunday. Darius Slay is reportedly a hot commodity from other teams. And Detroit certainly has other needs (see: pass rusher, linebacker) that could help them jump from mediocre to potential contender.

So what will the Lions do? What should the Lions do? Are they buyers, sellers or neither? Do they make a big swing or do they stay quiet? Are a few of the Lions that are on the last year of their contract (Graham Glasgow, A?Shawn Robinson) safe?

We cover all of that and a lot, lot more on this week?s episode of the PODcast, with special guest Michael Rothstein of ESPN.

This week on the PODcast:
Ryan, Jeremy and Chris break down Lions vs. Giants. Can the Lions build some momentum off this win?

Matthew Stafford was a freakin? legend in the second half.

What?s with the Lions? secondary all of a sudden.

Detroit Lions Podcast Episode 237 ? Detroit Lions & New York Giants Post Game Show. 98 minutes.

In this live episode of The Detroit Lions Podcast, Chris is joined by Detroit Lions subreddit moderator, Punk Rawkin? Trev. We fire the studio up discuss the Lions home loss to the New York Giants and take your calls. This was a game the Lions were expected to win, though the New York Giants were able to field their entire offense for the first time this season. That offense included Lions fan favorite Golden Tate ? he definitely gets some talk time. This was a solid win for the Lions, but it still left fans with some questions.

Detroit Lions Podcast Calls This A Foundational Win.
Even though the Lions were projected to win, Lions fans know every game has its opportunities for disappointment. The Giants were able to make it seem like a game during garbage time when they came within 5 points of the Lions. They chose the inevitable onside kick, but luckily the Lions played it perfectly and the ball rolled out of bounds. Nothing like ending the game in the victory formation. This win brings the Lions record to 3-3-1 with a number of winnable games ahead.

In a return to our happy place, The Detroit Lions Podcast doesn?t need to provide a therapy session after this week?s game! There are still plenty of things to take away from this game that the team needs to work on, but for the most part, the team quieted doubters in the short term. As is always the case, we take your calls and discuss the team?s performance in today?s game. We are also asked to think about the team in a broader perspective by a few callers ? well worth the listen. It?s a big show, with a lot to discuss, and the next few games will define this team.
 
Patricia: Tracy Walker is day-by-day.

Patricia said Glasgow may have suffered a "minor" injury.
Didn't seem overly concerned about his health status.

Lions LB Devon Kennard (@DevonKennard) returns a fumble 13 yards for his 1st-career touchdown.
This marks the first time a @Lions linebacker has returned a fumble for a TD since LB Stephen Tulloch did so vs. Minnesota on Dec. 11, 2011.

Lions LB Jarrad Davis records his first sack of the season. His now has 9.0 in his career, tied for the 10th-most by a @Lions linebacker in team history.

Lions QB Matthew Stafford throws a 49-yard TD to WR Marvin Hall (
@bigplayhall_A2N). Hall becomes the first @Lions player to record a reception of 45+ yards in 3-straight games since WR Bill Schroeder did so in 2002.

Lions QB Matthew Stafford topped 100 passing yards in the 1st quarter in each of the last 3 games. The only other time in his career he topped 100 passing yards in the 1st quarter of a game in three-straight weeks was in Weeks 14-16 of the 2011 season.

Lions DB Tracy Walker (@TracyWalkerIII) is the first DB in the NFL since 2012 to post at least 55 total tackles, 1 interception and 1 forced fumble in the first 7 games of a season.

Lions QB Matthew Stafford has thrown for at least 190 first half passing yards in three of the first seven games this season. The last time Stafford accomplished this feat was during the 2013 season.

He had passed QB Drew Bledsoe (251) for the 21st-most TD passes in @NFL history.

Lions WR Kenny Golladay (@kgxix) records his 5th TD of the season.
The all-time leader in first down percentage for the @Lions, Golladay's first three receptions of the day have all resulted in first downs for Detroit.

Stafford reached this mark in 148 NFL games, faster than any player in NFL history.

The last time he did so was in Weeks 15-17 of the 2011 season. No other @Lions QB has multiple streaks.

Lions CB Justin Coleman (@JustinColeman27), with his one pass defense, becomes the only player in the NFL to record 10 pass defenses, one interception and one forced fumble in each of the last two seasons.

Lions DE Trey Flowers (@III_Flowers) recorded full sacks on consecutive plays in the 4th quarter yesterday. He becomes the 1st @Lions player to record full sacks on consecutive plays within the same drive since DT Kelvin Pritchett did so on Nov. 24, 1994.

Among all NFL players, @Lions WR @kgxix currently ranks:
- Tied for the most rec. TDs (6)
- Tied for the most multi-receiving TD games (2)
- 2nd with an 87.1 1st-down %
He & Calvin Johnson (2011) are the only Lions with 30 rec., a 16.0 rec. avg. & 6 TDs thru 7 games of a season.
