Published: Sept. 12, 2017, 3:30 a.m.

Long-time Detroit sports bloggers and podcasters, Greg Eno (aka the man who knows a lot of things about a lot of things), and Big Al Beaton are The Knee Jerks!\n\n\nYou can now listen to the Knee Jerks on Stitcher, along with iTunes and Blog Talk Radio. Join The Knee Jerks new Facebook group!\n\n\nIt's all Knee Jerks all the time this week as Greg and Big Al run the gamut in all things Detroit sports.\n\n\nTopics include:\n\n\nWash, rinse, repeat - Lions start frustratingly slow, finish fast, proceed to beat the Cardinals 35-23 in come-from-behind fashion.\n\n\nKenny Golladay lives up to the hype\u2026for one game, anyway.\n\n\nThe Lions\u2019 defense carries the offense\u2026for one game, anyway.\n\nDespite what a vocal minority in the fan base thinks about his record contract, Matthew Stafford is a franchise QB and played like one against the Cardinals.\n\n\nTigers GM Al Avila dives head-first into a full rebuild, dealing iconic Tiger Justin Verlander to the Astros and Justin Upton to the Angels for prospects at the waiver trade deadline.\n\n\nFans got what they asked for. The Tigers went all in on prospects and are playing the kids. It's the right thing to do, but....the Tigers are also 22 games under .500, 26 games back and on track for a top-5 draft pick. Get ready for more of the same in the foreseeable future.\n\n\nAs always, Eno and Big Al also play The Birthday Game and name their Jerk of the Week!
