00:00You've seen so many crazy endings with this team.

00:04All of this, six wins under 10 seconds are in overtime.

00:08It's just insane.

00:11It is berserk.

00:12I don't know how to explain it other than this team, when everyone else gets a little

00:16tighter, this team gets seemingly a little bit looser, Scotty.

00:20I don't know if that's a good description, but Jaden Daniels, I mean, you've heard the

00:24term cool as a cucumber.

00:26Well, cool as a cucumber, California cool, whatever you want to call him.

00:30The guy literally doesn't have a pulse.

00:32They win games against Chicago with the Hail Mary, against Philadelphia with six seconds

00:37left against, who was it, against Atlanta in overtime to get into the playoffs last

00:43Sunday night in Tampa.

00:45And he's just nonplussed, not even like, oh man, we won.

00:49He was like, yeah, okay.

00:50I knew that was going to happen.

00:52I'm fine.

00:53I'm going to celebrate a little bit afterwards, but in the moment, so cool, so poised.

00:57And really I think Dan Quinn has got this team playing way above not only expectation

01:04preseason during the season, but I think that way over their expectation, they kept calling

01:09this a recalibration and a reload, but not a rebuild, but there's no chance they thought

01:16it was all going to work out like this.

01:18Not a chance, no matter what they tell you.

01:20So when they lost to the Steelers and the Eagles and the Cowboys, those three games

01:26in a row, the trifecta, did you think that they were toast?

01:31Because unless I'm crazy, they never lost after that.

01:36They did not lose after that.

01:38You're right.

01:39So you're talking about the three game losing.

01:41I thought they should have beaten the Steelers.

01:44They lost by one.

01:45They dropped a couple of passes.

01:47They were outclassed by the Eagles and quite honestly, much of the day by the Cowboys who

01:52were playing the backup quarterback, Cooper Rush, and had played and got embarrassed on

01:57a Monday night at home just a couple of days earlier and were terrible.

02:00I have no idea how they lost that game.

02:03I didn't think they were going to get off the mat fully.

02:06As a matter of fact, the next week they were playing Tennessee at home, Scott, and I picked

02:10them to lose that game and they poured them a new one.

02:13They ran the ball for almost 270 yards against a pretty good defensive front.

02:17Now unfortunately, that hasn't held up that running game, that natural running game, which

02:22is how I think they beat the Lions on Saturday night.

02:26If they don't have that natural run game, the Brian Robinsons, Jeremy McNichols, a little

02:30sprinkle of Austin Eckler as a runner, and we saw him convert a fourth and two the other

02:34night in Tampa, maybe Chris Rodriguez, although I don't think he'll be active.

02:38If Jaden can't extend plays and make plays with his legs, I don't know how they win this

02:43game Saturday night in Detroit.

02:45They need that run game and the natural run game from the running backs to be much, much

02:50better than it has been during this entire winning streak.
