Scott Mitchell is taking Jared Goff over every quarterback in the NFC North.

He points to Goff’s experience, reliability and what he’s already proven in big games.

Caleb Williams may have the biggest ceiling. Jordan Love still has top-end talent. Kyler Murray brings a different kind of threat.

But right now, Scott’s pick is Goff.

Herman Moore is a big Jack Campbell fan.

Aidan Hutchinson gets plenty of justified attention on Detroit’s defense, but Herman says Campbell has become one of the unit’s “forgotten heroes.”

He expects Campbell’s stock to keep climbing in 2026.

How big of a year can Jack Campbell have?

Who are you taking: Gibbs or Bijan? And why?

How much should we really care about preseason grades?

Scott Mitchell put it in a way only a former NFL quarterback can:

When he was Dan Marino’s backup, preseason was his Super Bowl.

Why? Because those reps were everything. Backup quarterbacks don’t get many real opportunities to play, so preseason is where they get a chance to show what they can do and prove they can be trusted if their number gets called.

Herman Moore sees another problem with putting too much weight on the grades: we don’t know everything that went into the performance.

Who was on the field? What was the play call? What was the situation? Was the quarterback working with players he normally practices with? What was the coaching staff actually trying to evaluate?

So yes, we can grade the performance.

But is the grade itself really a big deal?

Scott and Herman break it down.

Isaac TeSlaa was targeted three times and had a drop in the Lions’ preseason opener.

Scott Mitchell says it’s simple: If you’re a wide receiver and the ball hits your hands, you have to catch it.

Herman Moore sees it differently. TeSlaa has already shown he can play, so the bigger question isn’t what happened. It’s why.

Is this actually a big deal?

Which trio do you choose?

Yahoo Sports published a comparison between the 1995 trio of Herman Moore, Barry Sanders, and Brett Perriman and the 2025 trio of Jahmyr Gibbs, Amon-Ra St. Brown, and Jameson Williams:

⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️

The 1995 Lions featured perhaps the most balanced offensive trio the franchise has ever seen.

Barry Sanders rushed for 1,500 yards and 11 touchdowns while adding 48 receptions for 398 yards and another touchdown, giving him 1,898 total yards from scrimmage and 12 total touchdowns.

Herman Moore turned in one of the greatest receiving seasons in NFL history:

🏆123 receptions
🏆1,686 receiving yards
🏆14 touchdowns

His 123 catches set an NFL single-season record at the time.

Brett Perriman wasn't far behind:

🏆108 receptions
🏆1,488 receiving yards
🏆9 touchdowns

Remarkably, Moore and Perriman became the first wide receiver duo in NFL history to each record more than 100 receptions in the same season.

The 2025 Lions offense attacked defenses differently.

Rather than leaning heavily on one superstar, Detroit spread the football among three elite playmakers.

Jahmyr Gibbs rushed for 1,223 yards and 13 touchdowns, while catching 77 passes for 616 yards and five receiving touchdowns.

His final numbers:

🏆1,839 yards from scrimmage
🏆18 total touchdowns
🏆77 receptions

Amon-Ra St. Brown once again produced at an All-Pro level:

🏆117 receptions
🏆1,401 receiving yards
🏆11 touchdowns

Jameson Williams enjoyed the breakout season Lions fans had been waiting for:

🏆65 receptions
🏆1,117 receiving yards
🏆7 touchdowns

Together, they formed one of the NFL's premier skill-position groups.

So which group deserves the title of the greatest offensive trio in Detroit Lions history?
