It’s the bye week Womens A'Shawn Robinson Jersey , which not only means it’s a good time to reflect on the Detroit Lions, but the entire NFL. It’s been a pretty wacky season thus far, and outside of the Rams and Chiefs, every team has looked pretty bad at, at least, one point in the season. Expectations for each team seem to change week-to-week, and some teams heading into the season as playoff contenders have shown some serious flaws and could be out of the race soon. Take http://www.lionslockerroom.com/authentic-anthony-zettel-jersey , for example, the Atlanta Falcons. Coming off back-to-back playoff seasons, Atlanta was expected to be a serious contender in the competitive NFC South. However, their defense has been a disaster and they’re just 1-4 through five games.On the other end of the spectrum, teams like the Bengals, Browns and... gulp... Bears have exceeded early expectations. Maybe the key this year is to simply be an NFL team starting with the letter B... unless you’re the Bills... or Broncos. Anyways, making preseason Super Bowl predictions are fun Jake Rudock Jersey White , but a complete crapshoot. Now we know at least a little more about these teams, so let’s give ourselves another shot. Today’s Question of the Day is:Who will play in Super Bowl 53 this year?My answer: I’d love to say the Chiefs right now, but that defense is going to catch up with them at some point. A more balanced team will come out of that conference, and since I’m a very boring person that likes to make logical picks rather than bold ones, I’m going to go with the Patriots. With Julian Edelman back, their offense has already started to get back on track, and their defense will be adequate.In the NFC Womens Trey Flowers Jersey , I don’t know how you could pick anyone that isn’t the Rams right now. Their defensive roster is a little beat up, but still stacked. Their offense will continue being great with Sean McVay as head coach and Todd Gurley punishing defenses. It’s rare that a team so hyped in the offseason lives up to it, but the Rams are rolling right now and there’s no end in sight. So give me Rams over Patriots.Your turn.Tweets from https://twitter.com/PrideOfDetroit/lists/lions-coverage The PODcast crew breaks down the first week of OTAs, and the contract situations for Slay and Harrison." />Skip to main contentclockmenumore-arrownoyesHorizontal - WhitePride Of Detroita Detroit Lions communityLog In or Sign UpLog InSign UpFanpostsFanshotsSectionsLibraryLionsOddsAboutMastheadCommunity GuidelinesStubHubMoreAll 322 blogs on Horizontal - WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections Detroit Lions NewsDetroit Lions NotesDetroit Lions AnalysisDetroit Lions TransactionsDetroit Lions Game RecapsFiled under:PodcastsPride Of Detroit PodcastDetroit Lions Week 1 OTA recap, contract ‘holdouts’?

EDTShareTweetShareShareDetroit Lions Week 1 OTA recap Womens Eli Harold Jersey , contract ‘holdouts’? Raj Mehta-USA TODAY SportsLet’s be honest with ourselves. There isn’t a lot we can glean from Organized Team Activities. No jobs are going to be won in May, and even if the Lions are shaking up their formations on the offense or defense, there is no guarantee the Lions will be operating that way come September.So this week’s podcast, we take a step back and recap Week 1 of OTAs with a little bit of caution. Sure the highlights of Teez Tabor’s and Jahlani Tavai’s interceptions were fun to watch, but do they mean anything in the grand scheme of things? Probably not.But here’s what we do know. Damon Harrison Sr. and Darius Slay, who are both reportedly seeking new contracts, were not present during Week 1 of OTAs. Since these are completely voluntary http://www.lionslockerroom.com/authentic-taylor-decker-jersey , is it a big deal? Is there a holdout coming? That’s our main topic on this week’s PODcast.This week on the PODcast:Small observations from OTAs. Jeremy notes the full versatility on display for the Lions, especially at the tight end position. Darius Slay and Damon Harrison absences: Is it too early to give these guys extensions? Which should the Lions prioritize? Does it make sense for the Lions to let either of these guys walk? Does it even matter that they’re missing OTAs?Way Back Machine takes us to Santa Clara for Week 2: Lions at 49ers. Could Snacks have changed the outcome? Did the Lions get screwed by the hold on Tracy Walker’s potential game-winning interception? What other takeaways can we pull from this game with the benefit of hindsight. Mailbag talks about Matthew Stafford’s chugging ability, visiting Portsmouth and why booking Lions players is hard.
