Watch: Lions Wire and Detroit Lions Podcast break down the firings and what’s next

Emergency podcast engaged!

The Detroit Lions made some massive changes on Saturday. In firing GM Bob Quinn and head coach Matt Patricia, new Lions owner Sheila Ford Hamp made the first real move of her reign since taking over for her mother, Martha Ford, last December.

Lions Wire’s managing editor Jeff Risdon joined with Chris and Andy from the Detroit Lions Podcast for a live breakdown of the move. Streamed live on YouTube, the trio discussed why it was a necessary move but not necessarily an easy one for Ford Hamp.

Among the other topics in the wide-ranging breakdown:

  • Ford Hamp’s press conference should help win back some fans
  • How we knew very early that Patricia was destined to fail
  • Why Rod Wood is still in place
  • How the GM and coaching search will start
  • Names and ideas for replacements
