00:02 - Tonight's win is extra special.
00:08 I mean, it's a division game.
00:09 It's the Lions, it's the Packers.
00:11 It's a big rivalry.
00:12 So, you know, winning a game like this
00:15 is always a big deal every season.
00:17 - Talk about the keys to tonight's victory
00:19 and who really made the difference.
00:22 - You know, I think collectively as a defense, man,
00:24 we were balling out, especially in the first half,
00:25 you know, let up a little bit in the second half,
00:28 but stayed our ground, stayed composed,
00:30 and eventually, you know,
00:32 regained the momentum and finished the game.
00:34 - Is that a hard thing to do,
00:35 to stay composed in a person like Rambo
00:37 with a crowd like Packers fans?
00:39 - Yeah, yeah.
00:40 It's, once momentum's going against you,
00:42 you gotta, someone's gotta make a play.
00:44 You gotta, you know, play really at a high level
00:46 as a defense and just to get out of that momentum
00:50 going against you.
00:51 And it's tough sometimes, but we did it.
00:54 We got a little help from the offense too,
00:56 and a little personal foul call too,
00:59 whatever that one was.
01:01 - For the team, I think it's like, you know,
01:03 we can go anywhere and win.
01:04 It doesn't matter where we're at.
01:05 Like you said, Kansas City, tough place to play.
01:07 Lambeau, tough place to play.
01:08 So, I mean, we've won in these four weeks.
01:10 We've won at the two,
01:11 one of the two toughest places to play in the league.
01:13 So for us, that tells us no matter where we're at,
01:16 I mean, we have the capability to win,
01:18 especially when our defense plays like that.
01:20 Offense, you know, we got obviously limited turnovers,
01:22 but when we take care of the football
01:24 and kind of time possession,
01:26 be able to run the ball, all that stuff, special teams,
01:29 I mean, it's just a testament to how hard we work.
