5:42 stop with that nonsense. They need a pass rusher NOW!!! Idk what Holmes is waiting for. Maybe until we start playing better teams and lose? I get there has to be 2 sides to the deal but come on, you have got to get something! Idc if they’re middle of the road, get someone! Stop with this nonsense of signing practice squad guys and crossing your fingers.
Best wishes to Pascal. The Lions struggled with their pass-rush last year with Hutch, Paschal , Comisky , and Barnes on the field . Aaron Glenn and his schemes are part of the problem.
the schemes this year were a lot better. i dont think they've drafted well or signed well at DE / edge outside of hutch - players are either has beens, injured, or run focused. holmes seems to try to always look for bargain bin finds instead of doing the obvious. they put a lot of stress on their linebackers to compensate.
@maosgoldenmangoes504 Such is the 43 in general. The average rush gets home in 3 seconds. Average QBs throw the ball in 1.5 second. Average distance on most passes is 6-8 yards. There’s no DE in history who can compensate. The issue is the lions second level coverage has been horrible for decades.
I don’t think you can win a Super Bowl this year without additional help at defensive end. We would lose games during the year that we shouldn’t lose, and then the odds of running the gauntlet of three or four wins in the playoffs become very slim.
We really don’t expect you to know that they have a good Defense they remind us true Fans that they are just like we were a couple of years ago so you need to stop being so stupid and find someone who knows better
If teams were smart they'd attack our defensive edges and come up with great pass plays, because we are unable to keep edge rushers healthy. You'd think they would be the last ones to get hurt
Matt.. you do realize Houston suffered a season ending injury last year, right? He wasn't a ghost, he was on IR.. Just a couple healthy scratches this year. Why the extreme hate for him and Jamo?
@@bp8376 I wouldn’t say he’s an idiot, but sometimes I think he’s way too harsh on well-meaning players. As if they’re trying to sabotage the team on purpose
@@MitchellBrooks-lf4qd My point is he knows Houston suffered this injury , just like anybody that follows the Lions. He continues with this nonsense ,and he knows better. Players go through a lot mentally recovering from injuries, the least people can do is have some compassion and understanding, instead of beating them down. He acts more like a bully than a host, and he will get called. I have watched other locked podcasts of other NFL teams ,and the hosts are not like this
Why is the media obsessed with this face mask? If that happens to the Lions its a non story. Vikings had the whole game and played terrible against a mid team. One play does not win or lose a game. Only people who care about that call are Vikings fans or people who gambled on the game.
I mean it's a pretty bad missed call dude I neither had money on it nor am I a fan of either team but that was a shit situation and the refs should get reprimanded somehow
@@_The_Yeti I'm just saying it was a problem long before now. Missed calls like this happen in every game every week. Why are just now so outraged by it? Still had zero affect on the game.
They are off the lot (picked already) but they haven’t been used yet. A 2 and a 3 that the Lions can win without. We could get a good edge if we tossed one of those or both in a trade.
We should have an easy win this week, but after that, the next two weeks, we have the Packers in Houston as of right now I don’t think we could win either one of those games
Having no Edges puts me on EDGE!!!
Ukwu, Agude, Thomas, Houston, Nowaske
Did Dan even mention Ukwu or Agude?

His scheme is to be the better player and win your 1s

Matthieu Betts would of helped the cause. Oh 🇨🇦 Canada! He has Grit!
lol. The guy is available now.
Nobody signed him.
He stinks.
The CFL season ends in a few weeks. They could bring him back after

We are in trouble! Holmes and Campbell are not being transparent in this !

It's strange-the Lions are coming off a huge win, taking first place in the division-and I'm nervous about the edge rusher situation...
Matt.. you do realize Houston suffered a season ending injury last year, right? He wasn't a ghost, he was on IR.. Just a couple healthy scratches this year. Why the extreme hate for him and Jamo?
He can't help himself, he is a complete idiot. A broken bone even after healing takes time for a player to feel normal again.

They don't win a superbowl without a pass rush
Darnolds rating was 120 yesterday, Dery.
Ukwu. Matt, you’re more upset about it than Dan was. It’ll be fine…this week.
Rakestraw and Hooker should not be ruled out as trade bait.
They are off the lot (picked already) but they haven’t been used yet. A 2 and a 3 that the Lions can win without. We could get a good edge if we tossed one of those or both in a trade.
Our D line is as banged up as Matt’s audio
I thought a scoring plays and the last 2 wins were to be reviewed
Mins.
Every day bro
We should have an easy win this week, but after that, the next two weeks, we have the Packers in Houston as of right now I don’t think we could win either one of those games
Reading these comments will actively deplete your brain cells
Simple. We stop the run, We win. Win by 30 or 1, get the W and get healthy for Green Bay!
Houston, Betts on the PS
Houston is not on the PS. Betts is no longer in the NFL.
@@bp8376 I didn’t say Houston was on the PS. There is a comma between Houston and the next portion of my statement.
Betts will be getting 20 sacks in the CFL. We should have kept him!!!
@@TryPeaceNow "CFL" is not the NFL which is why he is not still in the NFL
@@TryPeaceNow The best offensive lineman in the CFL didn't even make an NFL practice squad. That's why he's in the CFL.
