Lions Gut Check, Packers Beatdown, and Bears Hate Week
Description
Matt Shepard and Sean Baligian break down a rough opening week for the Detroit Lions after getting outmuscled by the Packers. The guys dig into the impact of losing Frank Ragnow, why the center position is the heartbeat of the offense, and whether Tate Ratledge is ready to step up. They push back on the “coordinators are everything” argument and point to Philly, Dallas, and New England as proof that players make plays.
The conversation covers Jared Goff’s struggles under pressure, the myth of “bad play-calling,” and how much of the loss comes down to execution. Plus, Shep shares what he saw firsthand at Lambeau, Sean unleashes his annual “I hate the Bears” rant, and they preview a crucial Week 2 matchup with Chicago.
The show also touches on Josh Allen’s Superman-level comeback, early college football takeaways from Michigan and Michigan State, and why the Lions’ identity can’t be grit in name only.
