Detroit Lions - Team Notes

https://www.prideofdetroit.com/2017...w-podcast-pro-football-focus-brett-whitefield
Pride Of Detroit Podcast First Byte teams with PFF to see if the Lions are going to blow it vs. the Browns. 39 minutes.
Our preview podcast wonders if there?s any way the Lions can blow this one.

Main topics:
Is there any hope of the Lions developing a run game without T.J. Lang?

The Browns? two talented cornerbacks and how to avoid them.

Brett hates Ezekiel Ansah... or at least how he?s currently playing.

Will Kenny Golladay return this week and fix all of Detroit?s red zone issues?

DeShone Kizer: Why?

We play a brand new game: Name a Browns receiver not named Kenny Britt who will be active on Sunday (everyone loses).

Two of us predict a blowout, one of us does not.

In addition, the Lions announced that they have signed WR Bradley Marquez to the practice squad and released CB Adarius Barnes from the practice squad.
Marquez comes to Detroit after spending the past two seasons (2015-16) and the first half of 2017 with the Los Angeles Rams. Currently in his third season, he has logged 16 receptions for 125 yards in 30 career games after originally entering the NFL as an undrafted rookie free agent with the Rams out of Texas Tech.
