00:00They Lions beat the Vikings 31 to 9.

00:03This was a back-and-forth game for a half.

00:05Really the Vikings blew it by a couple of missed opportunities

00:10inside the red zone really inside the five where they went

00:13for it on some fourth downs and came away with no points.

00:16Sam Donald with a couple really bad throws, but in the second

00:19half Jameer Gibbs really got going not once not twice not

00:24three times four times a quad for Jameer Gibbs last night

00:29Westwood one sports.

00:31Three receivers left golf back in the shotgun Gibbs in the

00:34game to his right.

00:36Go off gets the snap handoff Gibbs running left cuts it up

00:40lowers his shoulder powering his way to the one gets a shot.

00:44Touchdown Lions.

00:47Touchdown the night for Jameer Gibbs this one from three yards

00:52out and with 514 to go the Lions lead 30 to 9.

00:58What a night for Jameer Gibbs.

01:01You know Joe for those of us that like to play touchdowns

01:05and things like that.

01:05I mean, come on.

01:06I mean, do we have to be a pig and give the same, you know,

01:09give them all to the same guy all night.

01:11We couldn't spread it around a little bit get someone else

01:14involved.

01:15I mean, come on Joe.

01:16We don't need one guy getting all four touchdowns in the

01:18game without a total of 56 and a half.

01:22We could have had some other guys getting the mix.

01:24Listen, and it's so funny because if Montgomery was still

01:28available, he would have and it would have been probably two

01:32and two.

01:32I mean, give them great.

01:35I mean give them credit because they you know, that's not

01:38exactly how they operated until they had no choice where he

01:41had to be the feature back and what a what an awful option to

01:46have right like, okay, you got to go from Montgomery.

01:49You're steady force and now okay.

01:51We're just going to keep handing it off to Gibbs.

01:53If it ain't broke, I guess don't fix it at this point.

01:56And they were plentiful rich when it came to the RB spot.

02:01Haven't they been

02:03they certainly have there's no question about that.

02:06And we'll see if maybe at some point in January.

02:09They even get Montgomery back to go along with Gibbs.

02:12Although I would say so far Gibbs doing a pretty good job

02:17by himself.

02:18That's for sure.

02:19Here is Dan Campbell, of course, very proud of his team

02:23clinching the North clinching a bye clinching home field all of

02:27it.

02:27Just total team effort started with our defense

02:31and took the whole took the whole unit.

02:33But now what a what a great job back-to-back

02:37division winners and the NFC North

02:41got the one seed 15 wins.

02:43I just couldn't be more proud of those guys.

02:46You know, Joey gets criticized obviously a lot for some of

02:48the crazy stuff that he does whether that's

02:52in-game decisions for sound decisions

02:56playing the guys last week in San Francisco

02:59in a game that meant nothing.

03:01I'll give him a ton of credit Joe.

03:02He took a team that has been

03:05awful

03:06forever

03:07and they are now

03:09they're the team to beat, you know, they and if he's taking

03:12them a step up every year

03:14last year and I think they're going to go even a step

03:16further than they went last year Joe and that's all the way

03:19to New Orleans.

03:21And you know, and he's the other complete other side of

03:23the story.

03:24Yes, and he knows we're talking about coaching hires.

03:26Remember when they hired him

03:28and do you remember the ridicule about hiring Dan Campbell and

03:32that guy like a meathead?

03:34Doesn't he just run into brick walls and yeah.

03:37Well, guess what?

03:39You want to talk about right guy at the right time at the

03:41right place.

03:42That's what Dan Campbell is.

03:44This team is all about they will lay it on the line for him.

03:48And I think that's a important part of the equation.

03:51If they're going to win this

03:53he's a big reason why he got those guys to believe and

03:56that'll go a long way this time of year.
