The latest episode of the Detroit Lions Podcast is now available. This episode is a solo effort focusing on the proliferation of NFL lists and rankings and how the Lions are perceived heading into the 2025 NFL season.

From the offensive line to safeties and all positional evaluations in between, there seems to be a real disconnect between how the national pundits view the talent on the Lions versus the virulent predictions of a Detroit downfall. It can be difficult to understand how the perceptions of the Lions and the outlook for the team have changed. This is my effort at cutting through the noise and the madness.

As always, an audio-only version of the Detroit Lions Podcast is available from your favorite podcast provider.
