## Resource

Detroit Lions face a running back crisis as Isaiah Pacheco undergoes back surgery, leaving Jahmyr Gibbs as the primary weapon headed into a pivotal Thursday night showdown against the Buffalo Bills. Will Gibbs’ heavy workload hold up, or is a veteran free-agent signing on the horizon? Roster depth concerns mount as Sione Vaki and Jacob Saylers step up, and names like Kareem Hunt and Austin Ekeler surface as possible solutions. Host Matt Dery spotlights the swirling Joey Porter Jr. trade rumors, with Pittsburgh Tribune-Review’s Tim Benz offering insider analysis on the Steelers’ contract stalemate with their star cornerback. Can the Lions capitalize on the situation, or will Dan Campbell and Brad Holmes stick to their DNA? Key talking points include Detroit’s secondary questions, the impact of the Bills’ high-tempo offense, and the challenge of defending tight ends Dalton Kincaid and Dawson Knox. Can the Lions’ ground attack control the clock and keep Josh Allen in check?
