Detroit Lions - Team Notes

Detroit Lions Podcast Episode 247 ? Quinn and Patricia Locked. Martha Says No Sale.

In this episode of The Detroit Lions Podcast, Chris and Jeff ?The Riz? Risdon are together again to discuss the latest breaking Detroit Lions news. It was a busy news day for the team, so we go in hot.

Detroit Lions Podcast Weighs In First.
News broke today about a small presser held by Martha Ford in which she announce the continuation of the Bob Quinn and Matt Patricia regime for the 2020 season. She spoke to the need for some new assistants and the need to be a playoff contender. We dive into what this means for the team and evaluate the decision. We also discuss how this situation might affect the actions of Quinn and Patricia going forward. What it bodes for the team and what to look forward for the rest of the season.

In other breaking news, Mrs. Ford and her daughter Sheila made it clear that the team is not for sale. Not to Jeff Bezos, not to anyone. The Detroit Lions Podcast discusses how important it was for Sheila Ford Hamp to step forward and make a statement. There was a message sent in that action, and we discuss what the message behind the message was.

We cover the Lions injury report, take our first peek at the draft, and even take some of your phone calls. One of our favorite topics makes its first appearance for 2020, HBO?s ?Hard Knocks?. We discuss the possibility of them coming to Detroit next year and why it might be more likely than folks think. The Pro Bowl announcements were made, and we discuss the Lions situation. Frank Ragnow snubbed, Darius Slay in, and Matthew Stafford and Kenny Golladay as alternates. Finally, we look ahead to the game against the Denver Broncos.

Tavai is the only rookie in the NFL to post at least 50 tackles, five tackles for loss, 2.0 sacks and one interception this season, the latter coming on the Bucs' first drive of the game last week. He?s the first rookie linebacker in Lion's team history to post that stat line.

These were the facts: Despite playing just six seasons, Don?s 41 career interceptions top any six-year stretch among Hall-of-Fame defensive backs;
Doll intercepted a pass in 58 percent of his games and averaged 6.83 interceptions per season, NFL records that still stand today;
he?s tied for the single-game interception record with four; and he?s the only player in NFL history with three double-digit interception seasons.
