Detroit Lions Podcast Episode 195 ? Lions OC Hunt Continues. 45 minutes.
In this episode of The Detroit Lions Podcast, Chris and Case take ahold of the microphones while Jeff Risdon is away covering the Jim Bob Cooter interview with the Cleveland Browns for Brownswire ? poor guy. Fear not, the boys fight through Case?s failing internet connection to bring you the most important and pertinent Detroit Lions news today. They also talk about another leap that the show will be taking as we push to bring you the best Lions content in the most engaging formats.
Detroit Lions Podcast Talks Hires and Fires.
The first order of business this week is to cover the recent front office move at the Vice President of Football Operations position. Bob Quinn hire Matt Harriss is out and Mike Disner is in. Chris calls an immediate Super Bowl victory as a result. Case tempers Chris?s enthusiasm with talk about finance, the time value of money, and spreadsheets. Suffice it to say, we won?t be hearing much from Matt in the coming year.
Then we get into the boring stuff and talk about Offensive Coordinator candidates. Things seem pretty quiet around the team right now and everyone knows, that?s when a Lion strikes. The Detroit Lions Podcast discusses some of the previous possibilities that were mocked the Lions way, many of which have now been hired elsewhere. Still a pretty wide open group of candidates to choose from, and no real indications from the team as to where they may be looking.
After pillorying Michael David Smith of PFT, we look ahead to next year?s schedule. As of today the breakdown of who we play and where we play them seems to favor the Lions bringing us the more difficult teams at home and some of the easier ones on the road. There is a lot of offseason to go, but it felt right to take an early look.
Heading Around The Division.
After that we take the longest look ?Around the Division? that we?ve had in the show?s history. We start with the Chicago Bears and have a little fun at their expense as a result of their elimination from the playoffs last week. From there we walk over the Green Bay Packers and their new head coach hire on the way to poke the Minnesota Vikings a bit.
Let us know what you think about the show by commenting in the podcast thread in the subreddit, or by leaving us a voice mail message via Skype at: Detroit Lions Podcast Your input will help make the show better, and if you leave us a message on Skype, you just might be featured in an upcoming Detroit Lions Podcast! You can also give us a call at (929) 33-Lions.

Detroit Lions 2019 coaching search tracker: News, rumors for team?s offensive coordinator job.
Your one-stop-shop for all the Lions coaching and administrative rumors and news.
POD
The Detroit Lions are clearly making some changes in 2019, and they are certainly warranted after a disappointing 2018 season. The season cost offensive coordinator Jim Bob Cooter and special teams coordinator Joe Marciano their jobs, and it appears more changes are on the way.
The team is keeping news heavily under wraps, but two weeks into the offensive coordinator search, it appears we?re finally getting some morsels of information. So to keep up with everything happening, we?re going to use this tracker so fans can easily follow all the news, rumors and official transactions the team has made this offseason.
Here, you?ll be able to quickly see which positions have been vacated, which have been filled and all confirmed candidates for each job. We will be consistently updating this as news comes in.
Without further ado, here is our Lions Coaching Changes Offseason Tracker.

The Packers are closing in on a deal to make ex-Jaguars OC Nathaniel Hackett their new offensive coordinator.
Hackett to GB is bound to get Lions fans mad, but he has some of the same flaws that got Cooter run out of town.

For those interested in Kubiak.
Vikings hiring former Broncos? HC Gary Kubiak in an offensive advisory role, per a league source. Kubiak?s son, Klint, is expected to become Vikings? QB coach and Kevin Stefanski will remain as Vikings? OC.

O'Shea?
Has been considered the Pats OC in waiting for a couple years now and with McDaniels returning again, he may be looking for a opportunity to jump to an OC job.

Former #Jaguars OC Nathaniel Hackett is headed to Green Bay, as the #Packers are hiring him as their new offensive coordinator, source said.
He?ll absolutely challenge and engage Aaron Rodgers.
Every OC candidate the Lions have reportedly been interested in is now employed.
One of Chad O'Shea or Shane Waldron is probably the guy.

Pride Of Detroit Lions PODcast explores what?s next for the Lions OC hunt. 53 minutes.
Divisional round reactions and another strange Lions mailbag await on the brand new episode.
The musical chairs tightened earlier this week for the Lions on offensive coordinators. Nathaniel Hackett has joined with their divisional rival, and most of the coordinators on radar are gone. So who?s next? What?s next?
But that?s not all. We?re football fans, and we want to share our thoughts about a divisional round of football. With four teams left, we?re curious to see where things go from here, and what the predominance of offense-leaning teams can tell us about the NFL.
PODcast is ready to go.
This week on the PODcast
Mansur jumps in before his theme music.
With Hackett going to the Packers and Steve Sarkisian back to college, what else can the Lions do for an offensive coordinator hire right now?
Will it be a Patriots guy? We take a look at who it could be and what that means.
How Bill Belichick has seemingly found a son raised in his image?and where he?s coaching right now.
Quarter pounders for Clemson! Oh yeah we?re talking about food here.
Mailbag answers who the best SEC linebacker is, and whether we?d trade ?Africa? for ?Margaritaville? if it meant the Lions win a Super Bowl.
