The Lions came out fired up against the Cardinals last week, is this a sign of positive progress or just a bad opponent? Will having Cade Mays and potentially Brian Branch back make a huge impact? Should Sam LaPorta be resigned?
Michigan is coming of a nice win against Penn State, Bryce was benched at halftime for Tommy Carr. Will the offense finally be showing some signs of life? Or was this a one off. Indiana is coming to town next week off of a tough loss to Ohio State, does Michigan have a chance?
Pistons look good in their first game, the Wings are trying to finally sign players, and does the Dodgers loss vindicate the Tigers trading Skubal?

Episode 83: Our teams suck... Except the Pistons.
We start off by recapping the last two weeks of football, starting with Michigan. What happened? Who is more to blame for the offenses struggles, Bryce or Jason Beck? Can Whittingham dig himself out of this or is the season over?
The Lions also lost and the defense once again didn't show up. Where is the grit in this team? Is MCDC the problem? Can anything be done moving forward or is this season over for the Lions?
The Red Wings continue to be a clown show, we re-cap the latest drama as their season begins without a GM.
Jalen Duren re-signed with the Pistons who are easily our best team right now, we talk about the future of that team and then give our current rankings of Detroit/Michigan teams.

Episode 82: What has Brad Holmes done for us lately?
We start this week off talking about Michigan's blow out win against UTEP. Did it change our outlook on the season? Why does Michigan continue to start so slow?
The Lions get beaten badly by the Bills. Is there any hope going forward? Who's most to blame?
We discuss if Brad Holmes and Dan Campbell are the guys for the job, and what would the Lions need to/should give up for, CB Joey Porter Jr?
Dylan Larkin held a press conference talking about exactly nothing, what does it mean for the Red Wings going forward.
