What if there was a better way to talk to all your friends than through a thousand different messaging apps on a thousand different platforms?

What if you could just find the show you wanted without browsing through infinite tiles in a hundred different streaming apps?

What if you could have all of your stuff everywhere without dealing with some crummy user interface on some unknowable file sharing platform?

This month on the Vergecast, we're looking into connectivity. How we talk to each other, how we talk to our stuff, how we find things online.

All this month on the Vergecast, available wherever you get podcasts.

Hello, Bleeding Green Nation. And welcome back to another edition of I on the enemy powered by SB Nation and Bleeding Green Nation.

I'm your host John Stolnes. You can follow me on Twitter at John Stolnes. Well, coming up, we're going to break down this Eagles Lions game coming up on Sunday afternoon with Jeremy

Riceman. He's the editor-in-chief of the Pride of Detroit. He's going to talk to me about his winless Lions feeling pretty good about a matchup against the two and five birds this Sunday afternoon and in the motor city.

And I will break down all the key matchups coming up for you here in just a few minutes. And I'll give you my prediction as well here towards the end of the podcast.

Just want to remind you all to leave a five star rating and a review for I on the enemy here on the Apple podcast feed.

I would love it if you did that and tell your friends about I on the enemy and every other podcast we have going on here at Bleeding Green Nation and joining me to help break down what's going to go down between the Eagles and Lions this Sunday afternoon is Jeremy Riceman.

He's the editor-in-chief for Pride of Detroit, the Lions SB Nation site. He's also the host of the first bite podcast. You follow him on Twitter at Detroit online. Hey, Jeremy, welcome to I on the enemy. How are you, man?

I'm doing great. Thanks for having me, John.

Absolutely. And we're just returning the favorites. I know you hosted BLG this week on your podcast. And I said one of the interesting things you guys were talking about.

I want to dip into the Xs and O's and some of the matchups here in just a second. But the Lions come into this game. Oh, and seven. They haven't picked up their first win of the season.

And yet there is a definite difference in the mentality and the mindset of where the different fan bases are right now. Eagles fans like myself are down.

Like we are down on this team. I look at my my coaching staff of this football team and I look at some of the talent at the key positions that I'm just not seeing it.

I think the coaching staffs in over their heads. I think the quarterback is probably not the franchise guy. So I'm in a world of hurt right now as an Eagles fan.

And yet we're two and five. And I feel like Lions fans might be the most optimistic and feel good group of 0 and seven football fans I've ever seen in my life.

So if you could switch places like I'm telling like swap the whole thing. This is the question you SBLG. If you could switch places with the Philadelphia Eagles right now, would you do it?

Man, it's a really good question. And it's interesting because there are so many factors that play here because, yeah, I mean, you're right. Like I don't think these fan bases could be further apart in terms of confidence in the future.

And in fact, we hold those polls weekly at an SB nation and 89% of Lions fans, despite being 0 and seven are positive, are confident in the direction of the team, whereas I think the Eagles are somewhere in the single digits.
