Welcome to the twenty Minute The 5 00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:24,560 Speaker 1: Huddle podcast presented by Microsoft. PJ Clark joins me as 6 00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:26,920 Speaker 1: he does after every Sunday, and PJ was very fitting 7 00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:29,840 Speaker 1: that that was a defensive play intro because for a 8 00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:32,960 Speaker 1: second straight week, Boy, that young Lions defense on the 9 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:38,240 Speaker 1: field late in the game, needing a stop justin Fields 10 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:40,960 Speaker 1: Chicago all game and being able to get a big 11 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 1: play after big play kind of do what they want. 12 00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:46,280 Speaker 1: But at the end when you needed a play for 13 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 1: the second straight week, that young Lions defense stepped up. 14 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:51,519 Speaker 1: How great is that? And it's the guys that you 15 00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:55,080 Speaker 1: wanted to make plays yet again, no Malcolm today, but 16 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,320 Speaker 1: plenty of other young studs on the line, plenty of 17 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:00,680 Speaker 1: young studs and looked at the Detroit Lions got it 18 00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 1: done and look it was a bunch of first right. 19 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 1: It was the first road win for Dan Campbell. It 20 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 1: was the first fourth quarter comeback of fourteen plus points 21 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 1: or since nineteen ninety three. Get eight games. They had 22 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: never come back from a fourteen point deficit in the 23 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 1: fourth quarter. They did that today and so and look 24 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:24,960 Speaker 1: now it's two in a row. And Dan Campbell and 25 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:26,800 Speaker 1: all these guys talked about, Look, you've got to stack 26 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,200 Speaker 1: wins together, right, if you're gonna be relevant at the 27 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 1: end of this month, you're gonna be you know, on 28 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 1: the graphic in the conversation in December in the hunt, 29 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 1: you've got to start stacking some wins. And you can't 30 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:38,479 Speaker 1: get to three unless you get to two. And they 31 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 1: got to two, and boy, what a great win for 32 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 1: this football team on the road. Yeah, And it's just 33 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 1: you gotta keep on going. The next week is not 34 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 1: going to be easy. Another road matchup against a probable 35 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 1: playoff team. Another win for the Giants today as well. 36 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 1: But this is the kind of especially with the comeback 37 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 1: and how it happened, and the resiliency in the fourth quarter, 38 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 1: I think is really the stepping point from here. Yeah, 39 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: the resiliency. That's a good word to use too, because 40 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 1: you enter the fourth quarter year down right, and and 41 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 1: and the third quarter, the middle eight has been it 42 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:13,240 Speaker 1: was not good today and does not it was, Yeah, 43 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,640 Speaker 1: it was not good at all. But but look, you know, 44 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 1: to to come back in the fourth quarter and to 45 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,239 Speaker 1: win a game like this, sometimes you have to get 46 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 1: the breaks too right And and here's what jear Golf 47 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 1: said about that at the end of the game. No, no, 48 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 1: And I think, uh, you know, when it could have 49 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,239 Speaker 1: made that play, it was kind of like, oh, we're 50 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,360 Speaker 1: we're back. You know, we're we're we're the we're here now. 51 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 1: And there was momentum was going their way before that. 52 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:39,119 Speaker 1: And I also think you know, teams that continually win 53 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,079 Speaker 1: tend to get breaks or you know, things go their 54 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 1: way a little bit. And um, that happened today for 55 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 1: us and both sides of the ball, and uh, you 56 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 1: know that's not you know, usually on accident. Sometimes it 57 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,359 Speaker 1: happens when you're in the right place, are doing him 58 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,399 Speaker 1: the right thing, you get those breaks and you get 59 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 1: those afford to two and he's exactly right. I mean, 60 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 1: you just look at some of the play penalties start 61 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 1: out with right, nine penalties eighty six yards for Chicago, 62 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 1: only two for fifteen yards. One of those was a 63 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 1: huge one page. Um, you know, the the interception that 64 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 1: Golf through, Um, you know that that ended up not 65 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:16,239 Speaker 1: being an interception because of of the it was the 66 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 1: hands to the face hands to the face penalty, and 67 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 1: the very next play DeAndre Swift with a nine yard 68 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 1: touchdown run. Um there was a breakout run down the 69 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 1: left sideline that that really could have maybe opened this 70 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,359 Speaker 1: game up for Chicago when they had a lead. Penalty 71 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 1: brings that back. Um. You know, obviously the Jeff Okuda play. 72 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: There was a fumble in the third quarter by Detroit 73 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 1: that went right through a Chicago defender's hands and right 74 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: back into Detroit's possession. The mixed extra point that ended 75 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 1: up you know, looming large. And so you know, Jared's right, 76 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 1: you know when sometimes you just need a few breaks 77 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 1: right to go your way, and so many times this 78 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: season the lines haven't gotten those breaks. But but Sunday 79 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: is a great example of if you do and and 80 00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 1: you make the plays when they're there and get those breaks, 81 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: you know you can you can pull off away exactly, 82 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 1: and they took advantage. I feel like of every time 83 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: you mentioned the interception and immediately the fumble and then 84 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: on the Calif Raymond and around fumble, I believe the 85 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: next play was was even you know, you got some 86 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 1: positive yardage out of that there was no it didn't 87 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 1: feel like it's snowball today like it has so many 88 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 1: times before this year. Yeah, and then you know what 89 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: a huge play by Jeff Okuda there in the fourth quarter. 90 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:27,599 Speaker 1: You know you're you're down fourteen, you just get a score, 91 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:33,279 Speaker 1: and now you know fields in Chicago's looking to kind 92 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 1: of run some clock, chew up some yardage. They're up 93 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: a score to put the game away. And then for 94 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,039 Speaker 1: jeffal Cooted to step up and make that play return 95 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 1: at twenty yards for touch on his first pick six, 96 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 1: his second career interception. Man, that guy is playing really 97 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 1: good football right now. That guy is just he's just 98 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:55,279 Speaker 1: active everywhere. And you're getting to a point now where 99 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 1: he has been so good this year that you're kind 100 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:00,720 Speaker 1: of like set it and forget on one side of 101 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,039 Speaker 1: the field and whatever happens on the other side. You've 102 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 1: got plenty of guys to rotate in at this point 103 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,120 Speaker 1: with the depth of Jerry Jacobs and I thought Will 104 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:11,039 Speaker 1: Harris played pretty well again today. But that right side, 105 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: you're good with Jeff Okuda from now on. And how 106 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,360 Speaker 1: great to say that, right because there were so many 107 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:18,719 Speaker 1: question marks the first two years, obviously with the injury 108 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: with the corn muscle injury, only played ten games as 109 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 1: rookie and then boom, you know, first week last year 110 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 1: with a torn achilles and no one knew what Jeff 111 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 1: Okuda would be after that injury. Some guys come back, 112 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 1: some guys aren't the same player, especially on the outside 113 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 1: where it's all speed and everything else playing the cornerback position. 114 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,359 Speaker 1: But boy, credit to that young man. He put his 115 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,480 Speaker 1: head down, he just went to work. And look, he's 116 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,599 Speaker 1: playing like a number three overall pick. There's no ifs 117 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 1: ands or butts about it. Yeah, and he is. He 118 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 1: is playing that good of football and he is a 119 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 1: big reason why the Detroit Lions won the football game 120 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 1: today in their three and six and looked still in 121 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:55,359 Speaker 1: the playoff hunt. Yeah, still in the playoff hunt. And 122 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 1: you mentioned number three pick, the number two pick from 123 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:01,919 Speaker 1: this year made that play happen, He Aidan Hutchinson snuffed 124 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,159 Speaker 1: out that screen to Cole Comet and was ready to 125 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,160 Speaker 1: go and kind of just instead of running at fields 126 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:10,360 Speaker 1: and opening up that lane for that throw it happened, 127 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 1: just kind of stood there and froze and froze Field's 128 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: eyes and he just had to throw it away. And 129 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:18,599 Speaker 1: didn't get far enough out of bounce. So as much 130 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:21,159 Speaker 1: as you know, acude a great return, great awareness to 131 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 1: read the eyes of his former college teammate. That was 132 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 1: a big talking point now the TV broadcast that you know, 133 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 1: those two ward number one together at Ohio State, but 134 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,479 Speaker 1: the Michigan guy was actually the one who made the 135 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:35,039 Speaker 1: play there, little Michigan Ohio State actually just teeth teeth 136 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,280 Speaker 1: it right here, like ten days out of this for 137 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks. Yeah, they're not gonna be friends 138 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 1: in a few weeks. I asked Aidan if he's got 139 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 1: any um, you know, any any you know bets coming 140 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:49,040 Speaker 1: up with Jeff what is it, Decker? We got Jonah Jackson? Jackson? 141 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:50,919 Speaker 1: He said, a man, I'm out numbered. Yeah, it's like 142 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 1: three to one in this line. But I'm sure he's 143 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 1: gonna come up with well those other guys in there 144 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,360 Speaker 1: with twenty three million dollars signing bonus. Now, Jeff was close. 145 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 1: Jeff was close, but then there might be something involved there. 146 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 1: But again, much like last week where you got a 147 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,919 Speaker 1: lot out of kirby getting you know, the production that 148 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 1: you did out of two and three, today it was 149 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,760 Speaker 1: just phenomenal and let's talk about the number four pick 150 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 1: from last year too. I mean, I'm on ross Saint Brown. Yeah, 151 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: ten catches, one hundred and nineteen yards and um became 152 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 1: like he played in his twenty fifth game today. Became 153 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 1: one of the top ten receivers all time in terms 154 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 1: of catches in the first twenty five games. And look, 155 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 1: he was feeling pretty good. We'll see it. It looked 156 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 1: like he got rolled on late in the game, came 157 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 1: out a little bit and then what is Tom Canna do? 158 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 1: And in go forty four that touchdown? So that was 159 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 1: great to see. Obviously, you know you'll monitor Sat Brown 160 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 1: and I did come back into the game, had a 161 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 1: crucial run that set up the Jamal Williams winning touchdown. There. 162 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 1: That was a good point by you and something that 163 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 1: I really liked, at least offensively today. I felt like 164 00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 1: Ben Johnson got in his bag a little bit. Saint 165 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 1: Brown had to carry out of the backfield and then 166 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 1: had a couple of catches out of the backfield. And 167 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 1: when you opened the game that carry, I think it 168 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 1: was on the first drive. Even when you open the 169 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: game with that as a threat, those routes out of 170 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 1: the backfield, they're just there for you the whole game, 171 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: and it was I think they used it really well. Yeah, 172 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 1: excuse me, PJ. And it was obvious that you know, 173 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 1: he was feeling good, you know that he was back 174 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 1: to being him just the way they used him early on. 175 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 1: He was really really active. Look, he's their best pass catcher. 176 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 1: I mean, let's be honest. I mean he's their guy. 177 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 1: Especially with DJ Shark and Josh Reynolds out. You know, 178 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 1: the excitement keeps building for for Jamo to come back, 179 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: but I think we're still, you know, a few weeks 180 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:35,839 Speaker 1: away from that, and so as of right now, it's 181 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 1: Saint Brown and you've got to get the football to 182 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 1: you your best players and any way you can. Yeah, 183 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 1: and I think you're getting kind of the way this 184 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:44,960 Speaker 1: is going at least Clif him and had a huge 185 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,520 Speaker 1: catch on third down on an absolute one of the 186 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 1: best balls GoF through today was unbelievable. But you're getting 187 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:54,840 Speaker 1: when you get these auxiliary callif him and Tom Kennedy, 188 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 1: James Mitchell had a catch today, Bruckwright caught a touchdown. 189 00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: When you get these guys, you know, kind of elevated 190 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 1: eating the water. Jamos just gonna come back in and 191 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,440 Speaker 1: and be a threat because everybody else is a threat 192 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 1: at this point. You know, I want to go back 193 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:08,680 Speaker 1: to Jeff a little bit because we talked to him 194 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:12,200 Speaker 1: after the game, and that was such a crucial moment 195 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,560 Speaker 1: in the game. Let's set up what they talked about 196 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:19,560 Speaker 1: on the sideline before that play. Um, you know it 197 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,439 Speaker 1: was it was honestly a crazy moment um and obviously 198 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 1: we're down two scores and uh, it was a it 199 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 1: was a play that you know, you know, on the 200 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 1: sideline we're saying, you know, we gotta have a turnover 201 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 1: when you guys got to be the guys to change 202 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 1: the course of this game. So I mean I took 203 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: I took a lot of pride in uh creating that play. 204 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 1: And that's you know, and it's it's like we talked 205 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:41,320 Speaker 1: about with these young guys like uh, um Josh Pascall, 206 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 1: like um Adan Hudginson making the play that you talked about, 207 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 1: like um Kirby Joseph, you know, with a couple of 208 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 1: interceptions last week. It's just been around. But he hasn't 209 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 1: played a lot of football, and so I still consider 210 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 1: him in that mix of young guys. Yes, you know, 211 00:09:56,640 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 1: when you haven't played what this is his twenty right 212 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 1: around there in a game something like that. He's got 213 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,200 Speaker 1: maybe a full season under his belt in a couple 214 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 1: of games. He's still a young guy, and now we're 215 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:09,719 Speaker 1: seeing him making plays and becoming a shutdown guy, and 216 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 1: Kirby's developing into a playmaker, and Aiden is starting to 217 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 1: understand the game a little bit. It's starting even to 218 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 1: slow down. And I think that was a good point 219 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:20,480 Speaker 1: by you about recognizing that screen, right. It was just 220 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 1: like last week when he recognized the tight end tackle 221 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 1: and granted was an underthrown football, but he's starting to 222 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 1: recognize him. He's starting to see the field and feels 223 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 1: very similar. It's starting to slow down for him. And 224 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 1: I think that that when that happens, Austin Boom, you 225 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,319 Speaker 1: can start to play a little bit faster. Something something 226 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:40,560 Speaker 1: turns on and clicks, and um, it's good to see 227 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:42,719 Speaker 1: that those young guys are starting to make a lot 228 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 1: of plays. Another younger guy. I feel like a lot 229 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 1: of the defensive young but big game from Julian o'quire today. Yeah, 230 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 1: just you know, and that's a guy you needed that 231 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 1: has a lot of speed off the edge that you 232 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 1: needed in there today. To kind of set contain and 233 00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 1: take advantage of the field spots where he's dancing around. 234 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 1: And yeah, he scored the touchdown, which was unbelievable. But 235 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 1: Julian o'car came up when needed twice coming around high 236 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: effort sacks. Yeah, definitely good to see him too. Still, 237 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 1: some things will work on obviously. I mean justin fields 238 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 1: searteen carries one hundred forty seven yards, two touchdowns, they 239 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 1: had a blown coverage. I thought they had done a 240 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 1: good job last week limiting those, but they had a 241 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: blown coverage on defense that led to a fifty yard 242 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:28,719 Speaker 1: coolcome let touchdown. So look at you. You love the win, right, 243 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 1: you love going on the road and everything we talked 244 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 1: about with the first but there's still plenty to clean up. 245 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:35,080 Speaker 1: But boy, it's a lot easier to clean stuff up 246 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 1: when you feel good about yourself on a Monday. Yeah. 247 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 1: And I think again, like we talked about it, even 248 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,199 Speaker 1: after the season opener, when you had fields and the 249 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 1: running quarterback was not something you had seen at that point, 250 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 1: and the Eagle certainly took advantage, and the Bear did 251 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 1: today as well. But next week you have another running 252 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 1: quarterback and Damniel Jones, and you see what happened this week, 253 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:56,079 Speaker 1: and now maybe with the momentum of the win, it's 254 00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:57,880 Speaker 1: a little bit easier to clean up before you got 255 00:11:57,880 --> 00:11:59,079 Speaker 1: to go do it again on Sunday. You know, I 256 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: think it helps when you go back to back on 257 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 1: that too. Now, Daniel Jones obviously isn't as dynamic as Justin, 258 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:06,719 Speaker 1: but but look, he can hit you for a hundred. Yeah, 259 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: he's shown that. Um. And you know, going from week 260 00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 1: one with a really good rushing quarterback Gino a little 261 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,440 Speaker 1: bit in their week four and then all of a sudden, 262 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:18,680 Speaker 1: not a healthy Dack that was not running like he 263 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 1: usually would. Yeah, and then week ten, So I think 264 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 1: that's a little bit different. I think seeing those guys 265 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 1: back to back, I think it's a good point by 266 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:27,199 Speaker 1: you that that because they could help them a little bit, 267 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 1: that that game plan, just in that mode, your run lanes, 268 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:34,320 Speaker 1: all that responsibility. Discipline was the keyword from Aaron Glen 269 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 1: last week. So you know, all those things I think 270 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:39,320 Speaker 1: are fresh and it's obviously going to be another really 271 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 1: big test there at seven and two. They look pretty good. 272 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 1: They won again. Today. Um, you know, what do they 273 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 1: got to do next week to come away with three 274 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:49,600 Speaker 1: in a row and two in a row on the road, 275 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 1: that would be kind of rarefied territory here in past years. Yeah, 276 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 1: and it's another dynamic kind of rushing attack that you 277 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 1: have a superstar running back and Khalil Herbert was was 278 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:02,560 Speaker 1: very good today. Montgomery didn't have as much even run 279 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 1: as I thought he would. I think you landed nine carries. 280 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 1: But you know, se Quon and Daniel Joe, it's both 281 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:10,320 Speaker 1: of those guys can hit you. And yeah, their receiving 282 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:13,680 Speaker 1: corps might be much maligned, but they are winning games 283 00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 1: and different guys are catching the ball for them and 284 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 1: scoring touchdowns. But you got to focus on, like you said, 285 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:21,080 Speaker 1: those run lanes and that game plan that honestly, I 286 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 1: would imagine it's probably pretty similar to what you put 287 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 1: out there today and you came away with a win. 288 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:26,840 Speaker 1: So you gotta do it again next week. All Right, 289 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 1: You almost beat Minnesota week three. You saw Minnesota did 290 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 1: on Sunday meeting Buffalo in overtime. I think they're they're 291 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 1: kind of proving they're the real deal. And that's one 292 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,320 Speaker 1: you probably think you let's slip away. One of the 293 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 1: other teams that are top of the NFC right now. 294 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 1: You know Philadelphia obviously played thirty five, you played them close, 295 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: and now you get a chance with the New York 296 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 1: Giants who are seven and two, who are right there 297 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 1: also going to be, you know, one of those top 298 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 1: teams in the NFC. So are you for real? Yeah? 299 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 1: Are you for real? If you're the Detroit Lines, I 300 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:57,719 Speaker 1: think you look at yourself and be like, okay, hey, 301 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:00,040 Speaker 1: you know, we think our records should be better, and 302 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 1: it is. I think most people probably do well. Now 303 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 1: we get an opportunity to go on the road and 304 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 1: improve that. If we win three in a row, I 305 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:08,960 Speaker 1: think now we're part of the conversation and maybe get 306 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,719 Speaker 1: one of those last spots with you know, you look 307 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,439 Speaker 1: at the schedule movie forward and some of the opportunities 308 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:17,200 Speaker 1: at home, and so I think this is a huge 309 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 1: game coming up for them to prove that that are 310 00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 1: are we are we legit? Are we in that conversation? 311 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 1: Should we be in the conversation the NFC? I think 312 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 1: you can go play really well and have a chance 313 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 1: to win in New York. You know, I think you 314 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 1: deserve to be on the graphic there and we'll see 315 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 1: what happens. The last month of the year. And I 316 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 1: think to your point is you said you have a 317 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 1: lot of these opportunities coming up at home and you 318 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: played Obviously, you get Minnesota at home again. But the 319 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 1: only top NFC team that you've played at home so 320 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 1: far as Philly, and that was Week one. You were 321 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 1: at Minnesota and you played them close. You were at Dallas. 322 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 1: You're gonna be at the Giants, like all of these, 323 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 1: You're gonna come back to the safe haven of ford 324 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 1: Field where you're coming off a win at home against 325 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,720 Speaker 1: you know, the Packers, and go from there when you 326 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,240 Speaker 1: have an opportunity. Obviously, the Bills are a different beast 327 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 1: than probably every other team at this point, but but 328 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 1: they're not susceptible to lose, not susceptible to their third 329 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 1: loss this week. Yeah, So I mean you can short 330 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 1: week at home crowds Allen maybe isn't feeling the best.
