Former Lions QB Dan Orlovsky calls out Joe Lombardi, Mike Martz for stubbornness

Dan Orlovsky has been an interesting resource for Detroit Lions fans since his playing days have ended. The former Lions backup quarterback has made himself a career as a well-respected media member, be it a studio analyst or a color commentator. Given his unique background inside the Lions quarterback room, he has also been a valuable asset for Lions fans seeking background information on franchise quarterback Matthew Stafford.

Though his analysis seems to be glowingly positive on any topic—almost to a fault—when joining The Ringer’s “NFL Show” podcast last week, Orlovsky had plenty to say about his frustrations with some coaches during his Lions tenure.
