Brad Holmes was on fire today. He was loose, but confident with an edge, which describes this franchise heading into the offseason. He made a passionate oath that the Lions are real and will only get better. He also brought RECEIPTS for anyone who has doubted his moves thus far.

Dan Campbell reflected back on the moment from Hard Knocks, when he begged his players to trust him. He said it means everything that they did. "To watch them buy in, trust it, believe in the process, and then us to have success, that’s special. That’s something you don’t forget."

The hiring of Sherrone Moore is less of a new start for Michigan Football, but more of a familiar, picking up of where 15-0 left off. "We will continue to attack every day with an enthusiasm unknown to mankind. And I promise you, we will smash."

Jameson Williams goes one-on-one with Jeanna Trotman

"I am living the dream every day." This is about as open and candid as you've seen Jameson Williams as a Lion. He talks one-on-one with Jeanna Trotman TV about his journey since draft day and how much fun he is having in Detroit.

Blake Corum is as genuine as they come. He could've gone to the NFL, but he wanted to leave his mark. "This is all I needed. This is what we came back for. We are trying to reach some goals & win the national championship, but this is what it is really about."

People talk about the Yzer-plan often, right? Everyone loved the Alex DeBrincat trade. Why not? 24 points in 24 games. But, DeBrincat was also instrumental in getting Patrick Kane to Detroit. The intangibles of how important some of these moves and decisions are by Steve Yzerman:

Michigan State welcomes their new head football coach, Jonathan Smith.

Tim Allen is a lifelong Detroit Lions fan. He caught up with Jeanna Trotman ahead of the Thanksgiving game about Dan Campbell, Santa Claus, and whether or not this team can make it to the Super Bowl.

This is funny and proof that this team is different. Montgomery’s 75-yard touchdown run was actually by mistake. The Lions called the wrong play for the personnel they had on the field. Goff said everyone relax, they rolled with it, and it turned into a TD. “That’s a sign of a good team.”
