Ty & Bob Pod: What now for the Detroit Lions?

Super Bowl dreams were dashed at home. Just like that. Disappointing as this must be for Dan Campbell's team, our Bob McGinn sees parallels to the 90s Packers.

This 2024- ‘25 ride for the Detroit Lions was really starting to feel like a fairy tale. Despite all of their injuries, Dan Campbell’s gang earned the No. 1 seed in the NFC postseason.

Then, the Washington Commanders shoved that Disney script into a paper shredder.

Jayden Daniels was tremendous. Jared Goff was not. And those injuries on defense were finally too much to overcome.

Here on the “Ty & Bob Pod,” our resident Hall of Famer, Bob McGinn, dives into the film. The meltdowns were numerous. Yet, there’s nothing Bob knows more than those 90s Packers that he covered on the beat. He sees striking similarities in these Lions. They’ll be back.

We also discuss Goff. He was exceptional all season, but how concerned should the Lions be about this turnover-filled finale?

Finally, Ben Johnson is off to the Chicago Bears. How much will this affect both Chicago and Detroit?

Thank you for listening to the podcast, everyone.
