[kalinecountry]

Detroit finishes 18th in NFL.com’s Power Rankings.
The Lions don’t have a lot of hype behind them for 2018.
NFL.com’s Elliot Harrison has updated power rankings for which he describes as a mixture of how the teams finished in 2017 and their outlook for 2018. The Detroit Lions came in at just 18th, well behind both the Vikings (7th) and the Packers (10th), but still comfortably ahead of the Bears (24th).

Pride Of Detroit Lions Blog PODcast welcomes the Matt Patricia era, shuns the non-believers. 79 minutes.
The PODcast crew ignores the Super Bowl and buys into Patricia Fever.

This week on the PODcast:
Matt Patricia hired on Toto?s anniversary! The Lions gave us a shoutout!

The Patriots? defense sucked in the Super Bowl and we all saw it coming. Should we be worried? (spoiler: NO).

What are the first things Patricia needs to do as head coach?

What the hell happened with Malcolm Butler? Who made the decision? Why?
Butler to Detroit in 2018? The PODcast crew debates the likelihood.

Josh McDaniels is a jerk. Jeremy nearly rages on his disgraceful exit from Indy.

Why didn?t the Patriots try to lure Matt Patricia back too?

Mailbag sells Detroit sports franchises to other cities, discusses Matt Patricia vs. Patrick Mahomes, and debates the merit of microwave dinners.
