URGENT: Can Detroit Lions REVERSE Their SLIDE in NFL Power Rankings? And Miles Frazier TIME!

Detroit Lions slide to 11th in ESPN’s NFL power rankings—are they truly contenders or pretenders in the NFC North? Matt Dery breaks down the latest rankings shakeup, questioning whether Green Bay and Chicago have surpassed the Lions after recent matchups. With key injuries in the secondary and ongoing concerns about the offensive line rotation—especially regarding rookie Miles Frazier—Dery examines what Detroit must fix to stay in the playoff picture. Special guest Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press joins to share insider insights on Taylor Decker’s future, Dan Campbell’s play-calling, and roster moves ahead of the high-stakes “Stafford Bowl” against the Los Angeles Rams. The discussion spotlights critical battles on both sides of the ball, potential impact players, and the looming drama of a possible season-defining clash against the Chicago Bears in Week 18. Will the Lions prove doubters wrong and reclaim a top 10 spot? #firstlisten   Everydayer Club  If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
