Summary

On this episode of the Pride of Detroit PODcast, we recap the Lions’ 29 -2 24 loss to the Steelers that has put their playoff hopes further out of reach. We break down what went wrong offensively and defensively, highlight key performances, and discuss the physicality and execution that were missing. We also take time to ask whether Detroit can regain its identity, and what they will need to do going forward to get back to its winning ways. Is this loss just a setback, or does it reveal deeper concerns as the Lions move forward? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
