John reacts to an epic Thursday Night Football matchup between NFC North titans, the Detroit Lions and the Green Bay Packers as Detroit wins by a score of 34-31. John proceeds to say that the NFL’s coach of the year award is basically locked up for Lions HC Dan Campbell, and gives the electric play caller his flowers for a hard fought win with a depleted Lions team. Then, Middlekauff breaks down Jared Goff and the Detroit Lions MASSIVE fourth down conversions against a solid Packers defense, and wonders what the big win implies for Detroit’s remaining schedule as the red-hot Lions improve to 12-1 on the season.

Next, Middlekauff dives into former New England Patriots Head Coach Bill Belichick interviewing for the North Carolina Tar Heels football vacancy on the heels of UNC firing former national champion head coach Mack Brown and what it means for the future of Belichick’s coaching career. Later, John has some thoughts on HBO’s Hard Knocks and Mike Tomlin’s Pittsburgh Steelers squad. John breaks down why the Steelers always have success on the field and chalks it up to the players work ethic in and out of the Pittsburgh practice facility. Finally, another electric edition of Fugazi Friday featuring Adam Schefter’s report about Eric Bienemey being fired after serving as UCLA’s offensive coordinator, college football’s early National Signing Day and Southwest Airlines surging prices.

Lastly, John is joined by Action Network betting guru, Stuckey to talk about the best bets for the weekend.
