00:00So, the positives, D-line, I thought the pass rush started to come to life a little bit.

00:05Some of those guys really started making a difference.

00:07Levi had a couple good rushes, Paschal.

00:10Aleem was dominant.

00:11Aleem's been dominant all season long.

00:13DJ Reeder had a couple nice ones.

00:15Things to clean up, felt like maybe not, and I'll have to go back and watch, John, but

00:19maybe...

00:20Not the greatest protection?

00:21Slippery pass protection?

00:22Yeah.

00:23Yeah, I know Jared Goff took a couple shots and was getting hit, and the passing game

00:27looked a little off.

00:28It looked like Jared was hitting his step and, you know, first guy not open, second

00:31guy not open.

00:32Right.

00:33Okay, now you gotta move around a little bit.

00:34Maybe some of those were late pressures, but he took some shots that you'd like to see

00:37cleaned up.

00:38But overall, it's a good win against a team that's still competing, not only in their

00:43division, but to be a wildcard team out in the AFC.

00:45I hit these guys with this this morning.

00:47I think Aaron Glenn's doing a better job than Ben Johnson is.

00:49Hard to argue.

00:50You know what I mean?

00:51You know what I mean?

00:52Like, given what he's working with, the Lions are number two right now in points allowed,

00:55we're two in the red zone, number one on third down, and that's without Aiden Hutchinson,

00:59right?

01:00Like, with Aiden, if you would have told me this team's one or two in the major defensive

01:03categories, I would have said, it's exceeding my expectations to do it without Aiden and

01:07a bunch of these other guys that have gotten hurt.

01:08You're missing three key guys at every level of your defense, right?

01:12Yesterday, De'Anne, linebacker, corner, you're playing without three starters.

01:17So I would say that it's hard to argue that.

01:18I think what Aaron Glenn has gotten from his defense, it's more consistency, right, than

01:24the offense.

01:25And the offense has still been really good, but that kind of lets you know how good the

01:28defense has been.

01:29When it comes to situational football, hey, you know, first drive, they want to design

01:34a bunch of quarterback runs, they got their first 15, right, okay, they're probably going

01:37to get some yards, lock them down and, you know, keep them to a field goal.

01:40Well, that feels like where coaching maybe is the most obvious, is critical key situations.

01:46Third down, red zone, et cetera.

01:47Yeah, third down, red zone.

01:48Yeah, exactly.

01:49They didn't get a turnover yesterday, but they've been really, really good in all those

01:50situations this year.

01:52Two-minute, you know, defense, hey, we're not letting up any points, you know, and that's

01:56what wins you games, man.

01:58And other teams probably know that.

01:59You play against the Detroit Lions, you know if you're kicking a couple fields, like, you're

02:03not going to win that game.

02:04You're not going to have a chance.

02:05That wasn't as explosive as that offense has been that we've seen throughout the majority

02:09of this year yesterday, but it was just another complete win.

02:13It's another wave of this team showing they can win.

02:15Hey, offense kind of sputters a little bit, defense, like, it's fine, man, they're not

02:18going to score on us.

02:19So it's just a sign, and it feels like we're saying the same thing every week.

02:23We have at least, for what, nine straight weeks now of, it's just a sign of a really

02:29good football team, and it's exciting.
