    Ep 41- Lions Wed injury report. Matthew Stafford ankle sprain video analysis.

    00:08 Matthew Stafford with right lower ankle sprain - likely mild severity. Probably could play but should he? What would Rod Wood do? 02:28 Golladay will be OUT. Has missed 2 months due to left hip flexor strain. 02:45 Vaitai played whole game after concussion and looked good.  03:35 Ragnow improving.  04:18 Multiple coaches missed game due to COVID quarantine. I support NFL philosophy of not postponing games.  05:40 Stafford right ankle injury video analysis. Available as podcast anywhere: https://open.spotify.com/show/5XwG8bR...

    Ep 40- COVID hits the Lions coaching staff. Thursday injury rundown. Golladay, Stafford updates.

    00:10 COVID puts many of the coaches in quarantine.  01:09 Everson Griffen off the COVID list. 01:40 Danny Shelton (see Ep 34) returns to practice from likely MCL sprain. 01:50 Jamie Collins neck injury last Sunday likely minor as he continued to play after the injury. Likely IN. 02:09 Tyrell Crosby hurt right ankle 3wks ago (see Ep 36). He is OUT. 02:20 Golladay likely OUT for year.  02:30 Ragnow getting reevaluation on throat/vocal cords Thursday.  02:47 Darryl Roberts likely simple hip pointer contusion (see Ep 37). 03:05 Stafford is IN. 03:28 Vaitai concussion. He is OUT. 04:02 Julian Okwara back from knee injury from game 5. Likely IN. 06:05 Vaitai concussion video analysis. His concussion is an example of how concussions can present very differently.  Available as podcast anywhere: https://open.spotify.com/show/5XwG8bR...

    Ep 39- Lions vs Titans post-game report. Stafford looked good. Brayden Coombs. Lions pro-bowlers.

    00:15 No significant injuries to note during Titans game 00:23 Vaitai started game but left at 2min mark of 2nd quarter. Nothing obvious on video. Has had left foot issue all year. 00:48 Stafford played well with rib cartilage injury. Left game in 4th quarter but looked fine on sideline. Expect him to play vs Bucs. 01:38 Golladay will be OUT vs Bucs and likely OUT vs Vikings in final game. Contract situation is part of the equation. 02:58 Ragnow missed game with vocal cord contusion. I think there is a decent chance he plays vs Bucs.  04:05 Dashawn Hand on IR. 04:17 Offensive scheme post-Patricia continues to look good with a pass-centric philosophy.  05:10 Defense continues to look terrible. Where are our safeties? Duron Harmon, Tracy Walker have been invisible past 8 games.  06:50 Do we need to replace most of the players? I say no. Look at what Jim Harbaugh did with the 49ers a few years ago.  08:25 We have a lot of defensive players with potential going forward. 10:05 Brayden Coombs fired due to insubordination. I agree with the fake punt call though.  11:20 Pro bowlers - Hockenson, Ragnow, Jack Fox. Bob Quinn drafted a couple pro- Available as podcast anywhere: https://open.spotify.com/show/5XwG8bR...

    Ep 38- Frank Ragnow throat vocal cord injury, Matthew Stafford ribs, D'Andre Swift headaches

    Watch on youtube for videos. 00:05 Congrats to Chris Spielman for joining Lions front office. Love this guy. 00:39 Frank Ragnow vocal cord injury discussion. No problems with eating or breathing. I think there is a good chance he can play this Sunday.  03:15 D'Andre Swift states he doesn't know if he had concussion. Differential diagnosis of headache is long.  05:00 Vaitai returns to practice. 05:20 Matthew Stafford rib injury update. Confirmed to be rib cartilage injury. XR negative. Another Lions player earlier this year missed 2 games with a similar looking injury.  09:20 What are chances Stafford plays this Sunday? 12:30 Many COVID reasons why it benefits Lions to keep Bevell as OC next year.  Available as podcast anywhere: https://open.spotify.com/show/5XwG8bR...

    Ep 37- Lions vs Packers post-game injury report. Matthew Stafford rib injury video analysis

    Watch youtube channel for video. Thanks. 00:10 Stafford with left frontal abdomen or rib injury. Likely strain/sprain. Unlikely rib fracture.  01:30 Stafford actually plays the next play. 02:00 May have gone to locker room to get Toradol shot.  02:38 This might be 3rd straight year he has been injured with a crumple-type mechanism. May have had transverse process back fractures the past 2 years. 03:50 Positive news is he played next play and was able to stand on sidelines with good posture the rest of game. There is a decent chance he will play vs Titans.  05:05 Darryl Roberts with abdominal contusion 06:08 D'Andre Swift looked very healthy during game.  07:25 Amendola may have mildly aggravated hip but kept playing. 07:30 Da'shawn Hand looked healthy.

    Ep 36- Lions Wed injury report. Golladay, Swift, Crosby, Kerryon. And how Kahlil Mack injured us.

    00:35 D'Andre Swift out of concussion protocol but still has "illness". What are the possibilities here? 01:35 Post concussion symptoms are still a possibility. 01:52 Cold/flu/COVID symptoms are possible. Other random issue like gastroenteritis? Social issue? 03:30 How long can post-concussion symptoms last? See Travis Swanson, Jahvid Best who missed months to years. Most guys are back in 2 weeks. 05:40 Stafford likely had mild concussion earlier this year and did not miss any time.  05:50 If a player misses more than minimum time due to concussion, that raises a huge red flag.  06:30 Hope for full practice for Swift on Thur or Friday.  06:45 Kenny Golladay still not practicing 5.5 weeks from left hip flexor strain. Likely OUT for Packers. 07:20 Contract situation a factor. Golladay could sit out rest of year. I suspect he will return last 2-3 games of season.  08:25 Tyrell Crosby with possible right ankle injury. Likely OUT for Packers.  10:45 Kerryon Johnson possible aggravation of chronic right knee issue. Might be back for Packers.  13:15 Jeff Okudah hurt shoulder 11/22. Listed with groin currently. Likely OUT. 13:45 Matthew Stafford likely UCL thumb sprain. He will play.  14:10 Julian Okwara and Trey Flowers could come back at any time. 14:25 Offense was more pass first. Defense blitzed heavy in 2nd half. Good signs going forward if we want to run the table.

  8. 12/03/2020

    Ep 35- Lions Bears Thursday injury report. Kenny Golladay, D'Andre Swift, Amendola, Stafford.

    00:10 Golladay OUT for Bears. Trending OUT for Packers next week also. How much is contract-related? I suspect he returns last 2-3 games of season. 02:20 Hand OUT with groin. 02:30 Okudah OUT with shoulder. Good news that he is not on IR. 02:40 Swift is a curious case. He has passed the concussion protocol but may be still having post-concussion symptoms. Or is something else going on? How can a player pass the concussion protocol while still having symptoms?  05:20 Stafford right thumb sprain on 11/15. Will be IN. 05:35 Amendola initially injured hip 11/15. Should be IN. 05:55 Mike Ford is IN. 06:05 Julian Okwara returned to practice. Initial injury 10/18 to right leg.  06:20 Desmond Trufant placed on IR due to recurring left hamstring strain. 06:35 Danny Shelton placed on IR with likely MCL sprain.
