Then the fellas take a deep dive into the Green Bay Packers, who the Lions will face on “Sunday Night Football” in Week 18.
The guys also take a look at the team’s latest roster moves, the injury report, and discuss their approach to this week’s game. As always, they wrap up by going position-by-position through the Packers’ roster, discussing how the Lions will try and take advantage.

| 0:04.8 | I'm Joe Kanya with me as always is Eric Schlett from pride of Detroit.com. |
| 0:08.7 | Eric, here we are, week 18. |
| 0:11.8 | And who would have thunk it? |
| 0:13.6 | The Lions have an outside chance at making the playoffs with a, you know, |
| 0:17.9 | first off, a resounding win over the Chicago Bears on Sunday, 41 to 10. |
| 0:23.7 | The Bears didn't stand a chance outside of that first drive they had. |

| 0:32.6 | We've got to, might be the, this is the biggest week the lines have had since you and I started this podcast. Yeah, very, yeah, what the, this is probably the biggest game since 2017, right? Well, yeah.

| 1:19.5 | Didn't really show up. |
| 1:20.1 | It was similar to the last three weeks of the regular season. |
| 1:23.4 | So this game's bigger than that. |
| 1:25.3 | Because I think in 2016, everybody's like, well, we know what's coming. |
| 1:29.1 | Probably the biggest game since the Dallas debacle back in 2014 or the 2015 playoffs |
