Detroit Lions: Rising Above Disrespect, Doubt, and Criticism!

[@DionteMoore-n9d]

Will and steve is the new ESPN podcast for yo detroit lions

[@c1985paul]

Jamo keeps doing tributes to past football players of greatness. I like it. It's not a "me me me" thing. He's saluting dudes he respects.

[@c1985paul]

Jamo is just clearly a good man. Far from a thug. Good human being.

[@MichilleWallace]

Let’s support Jamison Lions 42-17 I like Jarod I believe the rams are thinking about the trade that helped build this team

[@los31388]

Look Goff is the best pre-snap QB. It an underrated attribute but reading coverage and making audible reduces the need for scrabbles and pro long careers.

[@joebesko5592]

The Vildor facemask play had the ref throw a flag, but nothing was ever mentioned on it, did the flag get picked up?

[@c1985paul]

It's not about Goff needing protection, it's about protecting the guy with the ball, which is Goff for at least a portion of every play. The lions do it well. Everyone blocks for whomever has the ball.

[@c1985paul]

I would rather listen to you two fellas than anything that's on TV, besides lions football itself. I don't have cable. Why would I pay to watch commercials?

[@DetroitDen313]

Much appreciated

[@KarenParker-f8g]

Jared Goff is about to become a Superbowl Champion! GO LIONS!!! (When you put Goff behind a strong O-line -- as the Lions have -- you understand why he was the 1st overall pick in the draft...)

[@andydulak5705]

Great show fellas!

[@DetroitDen313]

Appreciate you

[@dknapp100]

I love these fools talking $hit. PLEASE keep it coming. FUEL. FUEL. FUEL.

[@KarenParker-f8g]

Have a *HAPPY THANKSGIVING* Lion's fans -- any holiday devoted to football and gluttony is one of my favorite holidays! (If you're traveling, be safe.)

[@DetroitDen313]

You too! Go Lions!

[@robertgettell740]

This week I've been thinking that Wright guy could have meant "pedestrian" to describe Goff, but couldn't find the word quick enough. Civilian, or pedestrian to me, seem like an equal diss.

[@KarenParker-f8g]

That painful NFC championship game last year against S.F. will propel the Lions to the Superbowl this year -- just a learning lesson.

[@DetroitDen313]

Amen!

[@scottrhoades1313]

Jared Goff, Jared Goff, Jared Goff. He is a great leader. Everything you said is right.

[@horgarth]

will you just described Brady when you described Geoff .... Our boy knows the answers to the test 90% of the time . If he has a career the length of Brady he can easily build a HOF career

[@DetroitDen313]

Love it

[@nigeltufnel775]

This team reminds me of the ‘84 Tigers. Wire to wire best team

[@MarkLeBay]

I’ve thought the same thing. Like the Tigers, it’s not just the top players. The role players are also stepping up … Tommy Brookens, Milt Wilcox, Larry Hendon, and Rusty Kunz have the best years of their career.

[@nigeltufnel775]

@ Dave Bergman’s historic 13 pitch walk off HR was the best

[@DionteMoore-n9d]

Steve and will this dionte Moore call been killing it all flowers

[@Tricksterbeaverisland]

I was watching locked Lions the other night and I heard Matt Derry bring up them handing out the turkeys

[@DetroitDen313]

A little more respect if he did but I’m still annoyed by how he goes about his business

[@Tricksterbeaverisland]

@ I agree with you, I’ve seen several episodes where he’s apologizing or backpedaling for shit he said in previous episodes , I think the only reason he brought up the turkey situation was because of the crap he said about Jamo the day before.

[@KingDerwin]

Great video

[@j-dog9800]

Iron man didn't have superpowers he had a suit. Goff's superpower is his O-line, Amon-Ra, Jamo, Laporta along with Sonic and Knuckles! Go Lions

[@markd9029]

Yep 97.1 can't hide their true colors anymore

[@adgee5401]

And just so you guys know, fanatics has his jersey. They are on sale now too.

[@DetroitDen313]

EMan’s?

[@adgee5401]

Yes. I went in the app and used the filter icon after wild selecting Jersey. If you go to players, you can see more players and he’s listed there. You can also try searching his name. I saw the blue 4 with my own eyes. Pretty much a full size run.

[@DetroitDen313]

Awesome thank you!

[@j-dog9800]

Lions don't win against Houston without Jamo's catch over the middle where he's hit hard enough no one could have blamed him for dropping... he's so tough and fast. Go Lions!

[@DetroitDen313]

Facts

[@MichaelDevereaux-zr3pt]

I would not take any other quarterback over Jared Goff. Mahomes is worthy too, and a proven Super Bowl winner. But right now, Jared Goff is THE MAN.

[@c1985paul]

*this is only true if the first string offensive linemen are all playing.

[@MarkLeBay]

@@c1985paulNot true! As highly rated as our OL has been at the beginning of each year, it’s almost never stayed healthy. More often than not, Goff has not had a top five OL to play behind, and he’s done just fine. At the end of the 2022 season, PFF ranked the Lions’ OL at #21 for Pass blocking, and #9 for run blocking (the OL was injury riddled in 2022). After Hockinson was traded at mid-season, the only noteworthy pass catcher Goff had to throw to was Amon Ra - Goff still led the Lions to be the #3 offense in the league.

[@MarkLeBay]

2023 - week 6 on the road against the playoff-bound Tampa Bay Bucs, Goff was without a run game or a true #1 WR and the OL was not playing well. The rush blocking managed a pathetic 1.8 ypc (40 yards on 22 attempts) and gave up three sacks in pass protection. Goff carried the team on his back to victory distributing passes to 10 different receivers for 353 yards, 2 TDs, and 0 int.

[@rudylopez4228]

Big facts!!!💯👌🏽

[@MichaelDevereaux-zr3pt]

@@rudylopez4228 I think golf has elevated his game this year. His mental preparation seems far better, like something he has really worked at throughout these months. His comments after the game seem focused and somehow just very different compared to the past. I am excited for him.

[@KarenParker-f8g]

Hey Jamo: The best TD celebration was patented by B. Sanders -- hand the ball to the official and act like you've been there before, and you'll be back again.

[@davidhprince]

actually Matt Dairy did praise jamo for giving out turkeys

[@DetroitDen313]

Spoke to this in below comments⬇️

[@DetroitLove]

I watched Nick's comment when he said it and he is wrong either way. But he was saying that some quarterbacks in the league are superheroes and the rest are just civilians. He's trying to make a distinction that there are some quarterbacks that are playing at levels above the norm or above civilian level efforts. He thinks Goff is not one of those "superhero" quarterbacks.

[@DetroitDen313]

💯

[@KyleRinesmith-po9xw]

ok ,jamo is a talent and im glad hes a lion but look at all his tds.you see the proof of maybe some concern.love his talent but the maturity isnt there yet.

[@timneff2785]

If anything, Dery is the clown with his old ass Jokes. "Let me reach for my kicker list, har har har..." his stupid ass nicknames for every player and disrespectful "opinions" get annoying quickly. The only reason I listened was because Locked on Lions 30-minute format is good to download and listen to daily on the way to work. Other than that, he is pretty awful and repetitive. So far, your show, Pride of Detroit and Detroit Lions Podcast are the best out there. Keep up the great work, gentlemen...

[@DetroitDen313]

Much appreciated 🤙🏽

[@adgee5401]

Gibbs has 2 lost fumbles 😂😂

[@claudestewart5465]

This kind of stuff is why I watch you guys and not Locked on Lions. And other podcasts two, I'm pretty picky I don't want to listen to all that negativity.

[@DetroitDen313]

Appreciate the support 💙

[@sanalawhorn2113]

Using words that's not football terminology don't work !

[@chrischris8346]

Its odd, nobody was crying saying it was disrespectful when teams were blowing out lions in past yrs, but its disrespectful if the lions blow out a team? Smh

[@DetroitDen313]

Well said

[@GABRIELGIESEL]

Jamo needs to matured that celebration was wreckless. He needs to focus on playing football.

[@DetroitDen313]

That celebration came from his focus on football.

[@GABRIELGIESEL]

@ no it came from his insatiable need to take the focus off his team and get people to pay attention to him. He is a self centered narcissistic immature unsportsmanlike showboater. Skilled? Yes, selfish ego absolutely. He needs to play the game and leave the theatrics for broadway.

[@DetroitDen313]

@GABRIELGIESEL no one complains when St Brown celebrates (Steve)

[@DetroitDen313]

@GABRIELGIESEL interesting take. We completely disagree. Narcissistic players definitely don’t block as hard as he does for his teammates. Again the celebrations have been paying tribute to players of the past. Definitely entitled to your opinions. Time will tell. Also Amon Ra has flipped into the end zone and dove backwards in the end zone last week landing pretty hard. These guys are playing great football and enjoying themselves. Personally we’re just THANKFUL to have the best team in football here at DetroitDen313. Go Lions, let’s get this WIN today

[@GABRIELGIESEL]

@@DetroitDen313 we don’t need more injuries and any end zone celebrations that are risky are reckless. Get the TD and give your teammates a high five and go back to the sidelines.

[@johnbarfield4858]

I don't watch Matt Dery. I used to, but he's not really a Lions guy. I wish Locked On would replace him, but there are enough guys in podcast land that I have choices. And I choose not to watch him.

[@DetroitDen313]

Appreciate you

[@RonaldKrzesniak]

We won't know for sure what Dery's motivation was in regards to his Jamo comments but I have found his podcasts to be somewhat bland and he often short sells our Lions...

[@DetroitDen313]

Exactly! Well said

[@Mbarwick7]

Matt Derry did mention Jamo for giving out Turkeys. Either in that episode or in a follow up episode. In fact, he usually gives him credit when he does positive actions. He just gets overly critical because he thinks Jamo hurts the Lions when he misses games due to bad decisions. Matt can be push it to far, but for you two to call him out for not pointing out positive actions, when he actually did, basically just shows you didn't do due diligence before speaking and looks like lazy reporting.

[@DetroitDen313]

If you think we’re going to go searching thru his show waiting for him to say nice things you’re mistaken. It’s about narrative. However, after people made us aware we did trace back to check and he did some very brief mentions from what I’ve found nothing near the intensity of when he goes negative. Podcasters put out a ton of content other than just their show if you understand how this game works on the marketing and promotional side. He’s narrative isn’t pro Jamo and furthermore he’s not even really a “Michigan sports” guy. In this field there’s better ways to address things you don’t agree with than calling our players clowns and saying they’re “act” is old. Especially when the young man is paying homage to the great players before him. All that said appreciate the banter.

[@Mbarwick7]

@DetroitDen313 I wasn't expecting you to go through all his content looking for positives. You called him out for negative comments made towards Jamo, and I agree with you for calling him out. You made an assumption that he never made a reference to Jamo giving away the Turkeys and you were wrong. What I was saying is to call him out for what you 100% know he said, and leave the assumptions unsaid. I like content. I watch it everyday, just want to see you guys giving out true facts instead of wrong assumptions.

[@DetroitDen313]

Definitely! Appreciate you keeping us honest. We need that too! We did dig a little more after you mentioned! Lets get this win today

[@michaelpatterson4372]

Never compare Goff to Mahomes, trade teams and the Lions with Mahomes would put up astounding numbers surpassing what he's already done. Put Goff on that KC team and Goff barely makes the playoffs. Goff is surrounded by the best talent in the NFL. Also, Mahomes could win a third Superbowl in 3 years that nobody has done ever, Goff in his lone Superbowl was a bust.

[@MarkLeBay]

No. Goff would do great in KC. Goff has done more with less talent around him than just about any other QB in the league.

[@michaelpatterson4372]

@@MarkLeBay Goff is surrounded by the best talent in the NFL, if you dont know that you dont know football. Also, Goff would probably do badly in KC, the offensive tackles are awful. Some of Mahomes best players are injured and Kelsey is going downhill. LaPorta is just plain better. Goff has the best line, the best RBs, the receivers are top level and better than anything Mahomes has.

[@DetroitDen313]

Yeah but when Goff made it to the SB he didn’t have all this

[@DetroitDen313]

That side not comparing the two we’re just saying he’s playing some damn good football

[@MarkLeBay]

@@michaelpatterson4372 Yeah, Goff has elite talent around him this year, and he’s producing some the best numbers of any QB in the history of the NFL. What did Goff do when he didn’t have elite talent around him? Without an elite OL, Goff is still great. At the end of the 2022 season,, PFF ranked the Lions’ OL at #21 for Pass blocking, and #9 for run blocking (the OL was injury riddled in 2022). After Hockinson was traded at mid-season, the only noteworthy pass catcher Goff had to throw to was Amon Ra - Goff still led the Lions to be the #3 offense in the league.

[@unstrung65]

Matt Dery was just expressing his opinion ! At what age do you become an "old dinosaur " ???

[@DetroitDen313]

Idk but when that energy runs JMO out of town fans will be SICK. Theres ways to voice opinions and not be a jerk. There was no need to call him a clown in my opinion. I’m thankful Coach Campbell has his back!!!!
