During the pre-game show, Ryan Fitzpatrick called Jared Goff a “poor man’s Matt Ryan”.
Goff made sure to call him out for it afterwards. 😂

Brad Holmes calling out the media is too funny. 🤣
"Dave you wanted us to pick a Quaterback, you didn't want us to pick Penei Sewell."
"Carlos I know you said that was a miss."
"When we picked football players high, y'all bashed us."
Holmes is a man on a mission!
Jared Goff gave the perfect response when asked about Fitzpatrick’s comments and silencing his haters.
He truly exemplifies the grit culture in Detroit!

Without Deion Sanders, James Houston might never have made it to the NFL!
Houston originally tried to pitch himself as a LB, but Sanders envisioned a different role for him.
Sanders moved Houston to EDGE, resulting in 16.5 sacks in his one season at Jackson State.

Brad Holmes should win NFL Executive of the Year!
-Drafted a rookie All-Pro TE
-Upgraded RB room (Gibbs/Monty)
-Impact rookies on defense (Branch/Campbell)
-Re-signed Anzalone for $6M a year
-Signed Glasgow (Top 10 G per PFF)
-Signed JRM (All-Pro)
One game away from the SB!
Glenn once benched CGJ at a high school prospect game.
He noticed CGJ wasn’t listening and didn’t play him after being told, “Yeah, whatever.”
Later he told Glenn, “Coach, I’m going to listen, that was my fault,”
Glenn never stopped believing in him and now they reunite!

Campbell said he’s been pleased with Hooker’s development so far.
Alex Anzalone's excitement was off the charts when Jamo scored his TD!
"I hear the outside noise for him and I just know that it just makes me so proud to see him do that. That’s my guy. I love him."
Anzalone is not only a great player but also an even better teammate.
Mohamed Ibrahim turned down offers from the Cardinals, Chargers, Ravens, and others to sign with the

He is also former high school teammates and best friends with Josh Paschal.
Did Holmes find a hidden gem in the former Big Ten rushing leader?
Halapoulivaati Vaitai in WK1:
-0 pressures allowed

Brian Branch among all rookie DBs (missed two games).
-33 run stops (1st)
-8 pressures (2nd)
-3 INTs (2nd)
-10 pass breakups (t-2nd)
-49 solo tackles (t-3rd)
He is and should be a legit contender for DROY!
Notice how Goff went out of his way to break it down?
He said “it feels different right?” with so much passion.
He knows this team is close and is stepping up as a leader!
