Description

The Detroit Lions welcome the Pittsburgh Steelers to Ford Field in a game that could define the rest of the season.


Detroit must win all three remaining games to have a real shot at the playoffs — and that puts the spotlight squarely on a defense that has struggled at the worst possible time.


In this episode, Joe Chapp breaks down:




  • Kelvin Sheppard’s comments and why they don’t match the numbers




  • The worst run-defense performance since 2003




  • Why Pittsburgh’s offense is statistically vulnerable




  • Key matchup advantages for Jared Goff, Amon-Ra St. Brown, and Jameson Williams




  • Why this game is bigger than just Week 15 — it’s about whether the Lions can fix what’s broken




The offense has done its job.

Now the defense has to prove it belongs.
