Monday and I'm GNA put a few disclaimers out there all right I'm GNA put a few disclaimers out there before I go through the road call because I want y'all to know that I gotta clear the air on some stuff I gotta Point some things out okay first things first if you sensitive don't don't watch this show come back to the next episode I'm going to get Patty and I'm going to do some some checking because I think that it needs to happen all right if your spirits is low all right and you don't want to hear nothing negative pertaining to this team or some negative comments that was made towards me this might be the one you might want to sit out just putting it out there okay but if you're good with all that if you're good with having a good time and having some fun be prepared to have a damn good show a show that is going to be fun and entertaining and energetic okay first things first all right I'mma get the roll call out the way and then after that we gonna get into what I need to address because it needs to be addressed and then we'll talk a little football if not a whole lot to be honest with you all right if not a whole lot the reason I have to do this is because there are certain things that will hit a nerve with me and when it does it does okay and this did so you notice I got the thumbnail that says it's all on his shoulders we'll be talking about Aaron Glenn and the Detroit Lions but I wanted to bring it up to Y attention of what's going on so let me get into the house call of what's popping first all right we got Looney tun in the building Craig Bev in the building giovan l in the building Dr Detroit in the building Chopper Trav is in the building sweet bread is in the building Chrome is in the building Billy vendible is in the building we got mck Walker Jr in the building we got boom in the building dap Zoom is in the building we got Atlanta Brandon in the building Luke I see the Lions going 11 to5 hey we gonna talk about it we got jgb in the building all right he said finally able to catch a live what up though we got MAA H in the building we got my man Big T in the building we got Marcus Willis in the building we got uh Looney tun Adam Whitehead ghost Gunner 313 Kurt and Marcus Robinson and anybody El who want to shout out throw a message in there throw a middle finger for all I care I'm still show you some love all right so let me make oh we got my man Kobe in the building too all right I made this post a couple days ago okay and it wasn't received well and all it says is if you know the history you know this is a a beautiful thing okay and the reason I said that if you know the history you know this a beautiful thing is because it made national news that for the first time in NFL history there's an NFL record 15 black quarterbacks to start week one I'm celebrating progress okay on this community post this is how I look at things that are good and I celebrate progress okay and I have some people come in and basically tell me I'm racist flat out say I'm racist this is racist it shouldn't be about if they are black quarterbacks or not I never made a comment to it being a black quarterback or anything I simply said if you know the history you know that this is a good thing this is a beautiful thing those same people who call me a racist who said that I I posted some racist stuff I asked you this did you happen to see the news where there was a hashtag on Twitter Instagram and every other social media feed that when is followed boycott NFL and why because they played the black national anthem for the opening day game and I'm racist and I'm racist you have people who started a whole trend went full viral boycott the NFL because they decided to play the Black national anthem and all I did was celebrate progress there's people who got an opportunity who understands that this was progress because it wasn't not so long ago where the only thing that they thought that quarterbacks of any form of color could do was run the ball they forgot about Doug Williams they forgot about Warren Moon they forgot about Steve mcir they forgot about uh uh uh uh Randle Cunningham and the list goes on and on but the audacity to call me a racist or say that I'm race baing or I got some racist stuff going on I want you to keep that same energy when you go and do the research and see that there's a whole movement to boycott the NFL for them having a black national anthem that's first so when you come in when I make a post and you can't see that I'm celebrating progress and I can't I'm I'm trying to point out a positive thing whatever demons you got inside of you that your business that your business but keep them to yourself or try to open your mind up a little bit further to understand that if this made national news and was spread it across the same way boycott NFL for black national anthem that maybe we need to keep talking about the representation of progress now that I got that out the way to the people who watched this game last uh yesterday this is a victory Monday I'm going to quickly go through all the good things cuz I'm about to get real freaking Patty cuz I am not happy about what I saw from that game I'm not I'm not happy about what I saw from that game and and I don't think that you as a fan should be happy neither before I get into that let's talk about that damn pick them leag people um I was riding hot boy let me tell you I was riding hot as you can see right now the bad guy John Ka is in the is in the lead with 12 all right Looney tun is in the is also tied in that lead with 12 I'm a beast 331 is also in the leave for 12 I'm in fourth I'm holding on to my stuff I'll probably get another win today but if you want to see how it rounds out we got MAA hope tied for fourth with me all right we got Lions all day tied for fourth wom me we got Kirk's crew in seventh with 10 wins I'm very impressed with uh Michael Huck Black Spirit dirty glove Williams Gino Mr Marcus 42 NFC Champs the Oracle I want to go down to the bottom and look 19 people join this the lowest one right here but guess what it's time to get back into it and the time to prepare yourself get your pcks in now you don't seen what week one is like that's the hard part get them picks in all right now good off rip I'm handing out game balls starting off with Alex anone if you ever heard me talk you've heard me been on the show you've heard me many times say the following statement we can upgrade from Ellis an alone my stance does not change on that however he played his ass off he's baled out he has 100% baled out he sat the tone early and often and was very consistent and I will forever reward consistency and in in um motor and effort and he did that did he have some flaws do not care he did enough to have people rally around him and Inspire them to be better it was impressive as [ __ ] I loved every bit of it from the very first hit to the last every bit of it absolutely gets a game ball first game B to go out second game bar goes to Jameson Williams if you know me I did not like that pick for a number of reasons I don't change my stand on that but guess what he did he stepped up when we needed the most and that's what we that's what we talking about stepping up when you needed the most so I hey kudos to him and trust me the link is coming because I I gotta talk to the people but he stepped up when we need needed the most and not only did he step up what everybody predicted or wanted to see which was a guy who can blow past people happen in real time that Stutter Step move he put on travius white to where D White had to try to reather his feet y'all don't know how beautiful and Powerful that was for me to see this man struggle to try to restart his engine because the other guy cut his off like it's one of those EcoBoost cars and fired it back on and went zero to 60 real quick was impressive As It Gets and the only worst part about it was the ball was slightly underthrown which still didn't help the cause of the guy who had to restart the engine game ball to him game ball to the offensive line game ball to David mcgomery game ball to jir Gibbs okay hell I'm gonna give a game ball that many people may not even think or suspect to be a game ball worthy of being given out but it should be game ball to armor R st Brown because if you know you know and they spent a lot of time trying to stop what he was doing and making sure he was not a part of the game plan they did a very good job of making sure he was not a part of it and for the most part if the truth be told they achieved that goal and if they want to do that they essentially told the rest of the of the Lions and the Lions fan base who won't be this won't be Amar ra St Brown we gonna see what we gonna see what uh with with J Mo got and guess what he did lit they ass on fire kudos to them game ball that's what they get now I'm GNA tell you that's the good okay we got the win that's the good all right we we got a lead lost a lead and got the lead back that's good but when I say I'm GNA get Patty I'm GNA get Patty because I don't feel good about the win and before somebody come in here and complain a win is a win kick rocks I do not want to hear that BS today I don't we got glaring hoes and if you think we don't have them you playing with yourself and you probably shouldn't do it because it's dangerous you probably probably need to focus on something different the lions got some glaring holes that need to be addressed and should have been addressed this offseason if not before and again I have nothing more than a simple opinion based on observations that I made but I can assure you this that what I saw did not make me feel good because I I guarantee you while many of us are up here celebrating all right I G I guarantee you you were sitting up there with your hands clamored going through oh my God what is this not another another lead blown not another not another one of these into Stafford of all people to Stafford every last one of you was stressed out let me tell you how I know because when the game started the crowd was loud and they weren even as loud as they were for the playoff game but they were loud and by the time they lost the league before they even lost the league you can hear their Spirits breaking little by little and why why did it break little by little but here's the quickest and fastest answer to it because the same freaking problems we've been complaining about rear this ugly head which is our defensive line I want to put things in perspective put a little context to it okay just a little bit not a whole lot just a little bit let's start off with the first part do you realize that your starting defensive line minus one DJ reader and before somebody come in here and be like but if we had DJ reader oh snap been even worse that's [ __ ] and I won't not allow that BS to be spewed I don't want to hear these excuses let's just talk about what really happened your starting defensive line AKA us Pride Nation our Lions starting defensive line could not take advantage of the backups or the backups to the backup offensive line that they had do you do you know how mindboggling that is do you know how crazy that is for the backups to be able to keep us at Bay now in all fairness kudos to the damn Rams for quick passing getting it out quick fair enough but there were plays where they had to hold on to the ball and before somebody come in here and want to talk about pressures miss me with that it's a great song when them girl s what Chloe and whatever them it was a great song but I don't want to hear about pressure because it didn't result in too many negative plays to the people who going to say oh but but Aiden Hutson baled out that's cap that's cap he should have ate and yes I saw three plays where three people was on him I sure did kudos to him that's good right but I saw a lot more plays where it was him one onone doing the same damn spin move and it going nowhere I expect more you expect more and you should expect more every win not going to be easy fair fair but I expect to see my starting defensive line beat the [ __ ] out of backup offensive line I expect to see that my linebackers came to play Jack Campbell came to play Barnes came to play Reed M came to play uh uh uh r RZ came to play Alis anone certainly came to play where was my dline [Music] at it was not there Stafford was sitting back there like he had a starting offensive line on some of them plays and I want you to put this in perspective this is a team that you win against that was not in full staff in no form of fashion you were at home and you couldn't generate pressure and before somebody else come in here and again I see you in the back Ma and I see you back there d man hold hold tight I'm about to get you before somebody come in here start talking about but we won though Luke calm down the same [ __ ] we was bitching about with Ben Johnson it's the same stuff all this cutesy stuff what is this get the running back who's succeeding run them there's no coincidence that when when he went to J Mo and he brought in Gibbs at the same time the play was more explosive that was not a coincidence that was the reality and we're not committing to things but the lackluster or uninspired play calling that I saw was ridiculous just ridiculous what they did to them and over time time they could have did that at least on three of them damn drives and had more touchdowns they had to move Jonah Jackson from guard to center from Center back to guard to put the backup in for the starting I can't make this up they lost pooker by the halftime and what was it at nobody can come out that game and tell me that they saw amazing play caller from Ben Johnson that's a lie that's why I started the show off with it's all on his shoulders and the defense the defense really helped in this regard the secondary improvements were okay but I want somebody to tell me why is everybody slipping like what the this the same field we've been playing on for years you know what c to wear on this field why is everybody slipping Carlton Davis slipping J uh J Mo slip all everybody's slipping go change the damn cleats on top of that on top of that we were so balanced that it was terrifying we hung around long enough for them to get inspired to get back in the game and again I just I for the life of me I go back to the fact that who is Robin to Batman now did Davenport have some decent Play Short did but I've never seen somebody be so close and yet wh so much he should have had easily three sacks and because he didn't get them down they were positive plays down the field it's just ridiculous let me bring some people in I'm bringing ma then I got dmap then you Gunner ma what up though what up though man I'm trying I'm trying to keep it cool I just I hear I was actually at the game so I got to watch it live let me ask you a question was the crowd loud as as it seemed to me because I I can hear it in the broadcast but I felt like the playoff game was way louder that place is pretty lit man trust me okay it was pretty lit in there like even during the moments where people was like oh no are we about to let this game you know get get away from us it it got pretty lit like it might have calmed down for a hot minute but it didn't take long before they got back up um you pretty much got hit what I wanted to hit on already um like I said being there live watching the game in person my only issue was the defensive line really mostly I think the defensive line was a difference in the game I think the defensive line was primarily solely in my opinion the reason the game was even close in the first place um because like I told my dad when I was sitting next to him at the game if like like you you pointed to it you gave Stafford credit for getting the ball out quick and that's what I and I told my dad that the way that you attack that is you got to get basically what I would call instant pressure like the minute they hike the ball you gotta bust that up up front like right out the gate because it don't it don't give them a chance to really get the ball out quick now I know that's rare and that you know takes a certain type of pass rusher but that's what you need like when they when they putting the ball out that fast you need somebody that's going to bust through the line and kind of I I don't know if you I'm pretty sure you remember that old s moment that Gino had last year with oh oh yeah with with with uh Aaron uh you know Aaron Donald like that's what you need you need that when they trying to get the ball out that fast you need that and I that's we wasn't getting that and I had went went to the bathroom when this happened but I was watching the game on my phone when I uh on uh when I was in line at the stadium and I was highly ticked off when I watched Hutch with that sack when he literally was hugging Stafford and somehow you let him get away from get away from you and that right there is the difference between Hutch being an Elite pass rusher versus just a good pass rusher because you like Elite pass rushers don't let make that mistake like or it's very rare when they make that mistake and they're more consistent on being everybody has a bad game we all know that hush is not going to be great every game but somebody else on that defensive line got to be busting up the offensive line and getting the Stafford that's how you stop that especially like you said when you got a bunch of old lineman missing guys getting hurt in the game your top weapon go out and you don't you don't have him for two two and a half quarters and but yet Stafford still marching down the field and that's the one thing I kept telling people like he just marching down the field just dinking and dunking the whole dud them was some of the longest drives if you if you and I want to address this really quick Jimmy F says yo people were slipping in all the games that's a League wide issue I don't know what's going on here we on freaking Turf most of the games that they were playing were on grass we on Turf the same Turf that we just played on two weeks before when no slipping then like what the hell it's Turf like that's what the problem is Right play the play calling was trash U shout out to Detroit Drew who says roughing the passer car might have played a role in this Miss set the roughing the passer car was right I hate to say it it was right once he got once he went to the ground you can not dive towards the KNE that time Brady rule he went low he went low and yeah I'm not gonna argue that you know so I you know like you say I thought I secondary was decent I thought like I said I I placed the issue at the defensive line the the pressure was was not getting to Stafford because we all know Stafford used to play here and we know that Stafford whenever he got pressur really hard Stafford made a lot of mistakes and that's what they needed to do but instead like they sitting there playing patty cake with the offensive lineman on the Rams I mean it it is strange I give the defense credit for getting stuff when they needed to but that's because the linebackers came to play now again you talk about those long drives just just watch this their first drives the Rams three plays okay we got him off the field let's go Detroit we punt but let's look at what we do on this on this play up the middle for two yards short pass to St Brown Sack punt think about the mindfulness you got two yards rushing here you picked up four here that means you need four more yards it's third and four just run the [ __ ] ball I think you same play that I complained about I want this the opening drive for the Lions now now the next play the next drive for for for the the Rams let's just watch this 13 plays 12 plays on they second Drive nine plays on a third drive and that's all before we got to the to the end of the of the second quarter then we come out at halftime let's look at what happens here run two yards run the middle four yards they go six right there it's third and four again short pass to J mo why run it again why you why they had like at least three rookies out there like come on all right next play you know they go three and out okay great we go and get a touchdown great we have 17 to three at this point let's get it 11 plays seven plays 10 plays these were some of the longest freaking drives I've seen in games and it was because we could not get home yep that was the sole reason why the sole reason why you just drop back one two three pass drop back one two three pass now now again let me get some of the comments bro is he really complaining about Hutch man it's week one he had 11 PR here we go he had 11 pressures in his sack woman getting held and all just so quick to criticize the dude well I mean tell me am I wrong hold on hold on your starting defensive line was going against the backups to the backups offensive line of the Rams they had they was missing both they guards out ail out the other guy forgot his name out they had to move uh Jonah Jackson over from Center to guard they lost both their tackles they entire offensive line was decimated and the guys who came in to to play the backup Tackle Spot got hurt so they end up putting in a backup to the backup let's not get it twisted so let me kind of touch on that so let's not get twisted I like Hutch but see the difference for me and other people is I'm not no Hutch s I'm I'm G hold people accountable the fact fact matter is there's another level that somebody like Aiden Hudson needs to hit are you can't tell me Aiden Hudson is not at Elite pass rusher status yet I didn't say that I'm not I'm not saying because if I say I get judged yeah I got I got called racist saying that he was Greek yogurt basically saying like hey him in of himself is not good but you add something to him he can be better I got called races for that too so I'm G leave Hutch alone because when I start speaking on Hutch I'm a racist apparently to some people this amazing to me Hut is a good player let let that be known Hutch is a good player I think he's a good pass rusher is Hutch Elite yet no that's I'm just tell you how it is again I like Hutch I am a lions fan but I a realistic fan at the same time I don't do the simping stuff I keep it a buck and keeping it a buck Hutch is not Elite yet there's another level that Hutch needs to reach before he's considered an Elite pass rusher it's simple and playing now let me answer this question Scar Tissue says do you fellas think this is preseason Russ since most didn't play or she we or should we be concerned on the scale of one to 10 I I I started to think it was pre preseason Russ until I thought about the Rams didn't play none of their starters the preseason at all neither in fact a lot of teams did not play their starters the preseason what I did what I did notice was and this right here is another one of the things that we should point out as a good Dan Campbell runs a good enough practice to where they're prepared for these types of things because he runs a hard practice so that they when when you can see the Rams getting gased and the Lions getting energized so that that lets you know that it's it's a difference in how they practice that's beautiful right but I don't think that it was like the rust I don't get the rust idea um Atlanta Brandon says them backup still professional football players in the NFL they could they could not come here and take a single person off a Detroit Lion spot they could I'm telling you right now he made it into the NFL Nate surf is still considered a professional NL come on now and keep going on the list keep going on the list Ryan Leaf Demarcus Russell you may keep going remember John Ross remember Darius Hayward Bay I can keep going just because you make it to the NFL does not mean that you were just super Talent just because you make it to college ball does not mean you just super Talent there's there's levels to this thing there's some great hall of fame High School football players some great college players Reggie Bush is a Hall of Fame college player he's not a Hall of Fame NFL player calm down let him play some games first because I like I I told you a long time in the past I work in Chicago and I was trying to tell them bear fans down here that y'all gotta slow down with this 12 and five so you gotta let C Caleb Williams play a game that was rough they fought there against Tennesse and you win because of your special teams in your defense that was rough I had I mean I get it and again I know it's week one it's week one it's week one we will get improved we will get better it's week one but I'm telling you right now if that week one game was against the Buccaneers you lose I told people when we got Terry I'm like you know my only knock on him he grabbed too much oh no he don't no he G that's good coverage I'm like okay how many penalties did he get for grabbing and it was all legit none of that stuff was Phantom that was all legit grabbing just putting it out there um M ma holding the back for me I want to get some more in the building and I want to address some of the comments in the in the in the comment section as well so just holding it back for me if you could real quick um Giovanni lion says Luke who do you bring in to fix it listen bro I need you to check every waiver wire everyone everyone I don't I don't even know if it's a de I don't know why the hell J James Houston is a healthy scratch why is this even I even believe James Houston would have had a better day against the backup to the backup offensive line so you know to me who you bring in to fix it more sense of urgency like I said I don't want to get it I don't want to get it twisted they were quick passing but there were some plays where they were not quick passing they were not he just had time because it was either a Miss Sack or it was either some type of Miss tackle they had a few plays one of them went to number 18 I want to say that was Jefferson and he broke a long run CU everybody kept missing tackles and that was not the best thing we dropped a few interceptions too but I can definitely see the improvements in the secondary I can see it and I like that part all right so you not blaming the secondary for not guarding Stafford was getting the ball out in two seconds bro ain't no way you can blame the dline for that okay all right [ __ ] it I do it I'mma bring in my next guest dmap Zoom I'mma set this up so I can show you what I mean dmap talk to the people what's your thoughts on the game it's victory Monday I'm not I'm not mad that we got the win I want the win I expect there to be tough wins no way that game should have been that damn close I agree man good CH me what's I saw heard news about the Rams losing lineman and everything I'm like oh yeah that the line should eat but now I'm watching that game from start to finish I'm looking like why is our dine struggling against backups that's what I'm trying to figure out you had at least freaking two two three sacks already D here missing tackles and that hush that that hush man it a couple of them sacks he should have had where he had hands on Stafford and still didn't get him I'm like how the hell you missed that make that make sense Miss wide open tackle L wide open tackles again so I'm like what the hell is this I totally get it I'm not lying I totally get it but some things just need to be told truthfully CU ain't nobody uh sipping bro he's putting up the same numbers as Boza his first three years ah I'm here look what's going on John Jones no wor no need to worry let's really get this party started I brought the liquor hey my man Juan de the B says shoot luk I'm late taking my head what up though what's going on steveo says I watch hush beat the tackle all game long he can't help Stafford got rid of the ball in less than two seconds I am not saying that they did not have that happen I actually agree with you the ball did come out really fast did not disagree with you one bit about that they would that was the whole game plan get the ball out as fast as possible right and I thought the secondary did the best they could makeing sure that they tackle when they got out quick right but as the game progressed and the score was now 17-3 you clearly know they was passing they were holding the ball a little bit longer and those those those dline wasn't getting home like it was supposed supposed to it w a lot w a lot of whoop like it was supposed to I just want to put it out there in case you did not know in case you missed something you realize that they only sacked them twice twice with a Mak shift offensive line twice that's sloppy so sloppy there no excuse I'm not trying to reinvent the wheel I'm simply asking you to understand something you got this man twice and if you go and look at who got it one of them was Aiden hudon you get a half a sack with Levi anque and a half a sack to Marcus Davenport they even had the audacity to try to make the one play where Marcus Davenport actually did good on the pressure by getting his hands up in his face they tried to get a credit to Aiden Hutson I was like that's cap and I even said in the chat that it was wrong they got it wrong and kudos to Jared G because Jared G is he's winning me over I was I was I was appall when they gave the game ball the the Monday night Prime Time game ball to Jed G kud to him to giving it to the real hero cause J Mo went in oh mean J Mo they had no answer him they literally had no answer to that guy n but minute he got that ball he basically was tearing that defense apart every time he got it then Minute Man start focusing on J Mo as when your boy son Porter to a certain degree same Browns getting a couple touches run a game all that start working and like I said I'm not knocking people I'm not knocking them but I want y'all to understand something okay I want you to understand something our offensive line is good okay they're good so when I see five quarterback hits it makes sense when I see two sacks it makes sense probably wouldn't gave up none but it makes sense you flip that you're not going to tell me that the Rams offensive line is so good that we only get we get 12 quarterback hits in two saxs no no we should had a lot more than that some of some of this is some of this is misleading but I like it because I want people to understand like with this field like keep the same energy keep the same energy a lot better go ahead I'm listening they should have took advantage of that to play dline it made no sense to me I'm s watching this game I'm look like why the hell is people D lineman getting hands on Stafford but can't get him now make it make sense they're going to against backups it makes no sense to me it was like why is this game as close as it was like it shouldn't been as close never we Lally had a 17 or three lead we let them not only come back but it took us going to overtime for us to finally beat him in the coin flip come on man a coin flip how many games we gonna win with a coin flip and shout out to Juan W he right how many times we gonna come out at the get we was up we was up 17 you go three and out at at the coming in from the half how I thought we I thought we fixed that two years in we still doing this [ __ ] still struggling still struggling the third quarter this what I'm saying Ben Johnson love him where was all those creative plays at where were they usually at that point you supposed to step on they throw and finish them they getting them no chance come back but for whatever reason one way or another they can want go away from the Run game which was working and tearing that def aart like why' you go away for something that's working make it make sense they trying to get cute what trying to get cute for you got a huge lead they have to throw the ball run that ball run that clock out you can score on that drive too hey and and that's the thing you know as dark TWY point out where was the push up the middle I was like alen alen listen they drew all their attention I'm telling you they had two on the lean they was putting two and three on Hutch at times they chip Hutch and everything Hutch got some Penal one of the penalties I'm like okay that's what you supposed to do to the back of a backup he panicked and just grabbed the face mask another one he got tripped and every fan was like oh they didn't even call the tripping call that was the weakest trip I ever seen in my entire life man he too goddamn big and supposed to be too athletic to be getting tripped off of that [ __ ] that's not right but Ben Johnson's play calling was not where it needed to be neither it was not it more passing than freaking running like what happen what's the point of having a be Beast of a o line and the Beast of a running back do well you don't use them he's out of way till the freaking overtime side oh yeah we GNA fin run the ball G why do that earlier in the game it's rough uh it says when though this was the first game elen better make his name known because this is a contract season he will you know I got faith in him uh Devin Port did play decent I agree with that I just expected so much more given the the circumstance trust me we should have took advantage of that freaking depl o line on the Rams we should took advantage of that we should man getting Stafford hell and then some but for us only have two sacks that whole game that dude had time to H Kelly Stafford like hey baby what you want to eat for din today yeah shout out to my man Nomas he says I've been saying this for years our early season struggles are on play calling not rust it's I don't get I'm not taking the rust um B Billy vendible says I wasn't too happy with golf last night I thought he missed a lot of reads on some of those incomplete passes on the replay I saw receivers coming open on some of those underneath of course but but you know the difference was they was on his ass they was on him he the pocket was closed I'm G tell you something I'm gonna tell you one of my most proud moments but a sad moment for the Rams my one of my problem moments is when you watch Jared G Run for the first down if I was a ram fan if I was a ram coach and I'm watching all my defensive players be unable to catch Jared G I'm immediately telling the coach I need I need you to trade and give me somebody that can do something because this ain't it that was that was the slowest first down I have seen in a long time well nobody over during that drive he ran I'm like yeah man go ahead and get it I'm like wow they ain't catch him I'll take it seriously I'll take it now these are highlights nothing special but these are highlights and I know the ball came out quick okay but these are backups that's what I'm saying the only starter here right now are these two yep all right which means this whole outside should be a problem all right that's all I'm G to point out they backups now look at the blitz ball out this yeah there's no excuse for that that no excuse no excuse but it happened but it happened it happened fine watch again now watch again ball out right I'm g go back to this because this one right here show something I'm me show you hold on let me go let me throw it down just a little bit I don't want them to take me off the off the air but I gotta I gotta show it all right I want you to watch the entire D line that's Levi that's aen I'm almost sure that that's uh Pico P Pico how you say his name me Pasco no no that's Pico Pico Pico my almost that's his name and here go Hutch all right so hush win this right here ball is out right this is a good game plan by them I am agreeing that they were doing this the whole game getting it out quick getting it out quick notice that this is the first quarter notice that this is early on in the game I am in agreement with you Hutch is now over here and that is not a hold but ball is coming out quick and I'm okay with that this is the game plan but guess what this kind of [ __ ] right here mm- can't happen mm that was an open tackle man that was a open tackle this is why this is why I gave my game ball first to Alex anzalone yeah as was on it he put in work that game he put in work all right I'mma do one more because this all the earlier [ __ ] I'm just gonna skip it to a to aart one more and I'm G skip it now we got hush out here Alim up middle devonport right there there go anque one onone they go to spin move ball is out he can't do nothing about that totally can't do nothing about it right now let's just skip it anywhere I don't know I gotta get it to a uh I gotta I gotta see this one time this is the slowest I ever seen somebody really try to be f a mess look look at this I want y'all to watch this I could have swore Fisk was a little bit faster than this he spins off all right how do you let this man yeah beat you funny how he get that I just I just thought thought gonna get caught honestly was that dude spin off I'm like oh you about to get caught voided them I'm like how all right now this is the third quarter it's third and one come on bro really come on he a even chip him he ain't even chip him yeah I don't know what the hell that was he finally beats him but this is where I told people all the time aen Hut sometimes just get wow he like his body control ain't where it's supposed to be now this the one where they saying oh he tripped him that is not enough for you to be falling bro I'm sorry I'm sorry and the worst part is look at this [ __ ] up here there's nothing going on up here literally it's third and one Stafford is is keyed on somebody look my man over here open he can't go here but look come on how how come on man it's not even just that it's Ben Johnson's play calling too that's that ain't making it no better that vanilla play calling he was doing what's the point of having a beast of o line and a running back Duo if you don't use him what's going on Mike Mike is in the building from Lion talk by chat sports what's going on brother could have been abusing that freaking o line from Rams and we didn't do much of it during I just end when it mattered again I the defensive line I thought yo you had opportunities to make plays okay um like come on had four and and again that trip bro that trip is that's not enough I can show you so I can show you some games where some people got tripped and it did not affect him his a foot got stuck out and his whole life ended come on man life in come on I'm not I'm not I'm just I'm just I want y to understand I'm mad at Ben Johnson too that freaking play calling he was doing I'm like no his what the hell is this listen and I see you back there Gunner I I got yall I don't want y you know I guess you back there Dan I'll get y'all in there trust me but when I tell you I sat up there and I went Ben Johnson are you okay do y'all know do y'all know since last season I have posted the halftime stats in my community post for every game because I got tired of people trying to tell me what happened in the first half versus in the second half and I'm telling you that right now if you go through and you look at the number it don't make sense it don't Ben Johnson was on some [ __ ] I swear he really was he was not consistent in what he I don't I don't even want to go through and look at Ben Johnson stuff because I'mma get upset but d man let me get some the people up in here brother if you can man I appreciate you that's I want to tell you that it was some freaking BS while see in that game I said listen I'm just talking about the D line but I ain't even get Ben Johnson oh Lord appreciate DM for coming in man but Ben Johnson bro was on some [ __ ] the play calling that he called in overtime was brilliant why not because it worked because it was how he deployed the each piece to get it to work that's why oh timer Dave my my my my Packer person in the building what up do all right we got W offline in the building what up though bro did all that to complain about one trip play man that's 300 pounds plus oh you want to play that game because you show you what show you what somebody that's heavier than him did when they had a foot stucken out on him and I can show you more than one person and I could have showed more but just for the record okay just for the record 313 Kirk right I can't show Too Much video without YouTube Banning me so I'm trying to be cogn of that trust me I got more than that don't even get me started I'll make a whole video breaking it down for you they did a very good job of getting the ball out but there were plays where they held the ball for longer and our d line was nowhere near the quarterback and when they and when when the few time they got in there Stafford hung tight in the pocket and nothing happened just saying all right let me bring in ghost Gunner let him talk his talk did I get through everybody else Gunner talk to me man what your thoughts on the game hey what's going on man just the the miss the miss tackles was probably the worst part about the defense 100% I'm watching like Brian Branch missed three tackles back to back like Carl and Davis dropping two interceptions and Hest I didn't even know Josh Pascal played until I he brought up one of the clips I saw his number I don't even know why he here at this point but he was he was one of the only players on the like starting dline who actually played in the preseason but this is the thing if they Quick Pass the whole game I could understand it they didn't though no no yeah DAV Port what missed like two two or three sacks McNeil was getting doubled for most of the game so like I I don't know I expect someone especially someone like Pascal has been here for three years to get better you would think you listen bro you would listen if I were right now if you had a chance to win a million dollars all right okay to win it's one week I know it's one week this this is the problem with this Kirk I know it's one week you cannot tell me answer this question to me Kirk were you sitting there going oh not this [ __ ] again were you sitting there getting worried that we were getting ready to lose this game and they marched the ball down the fil oners where are you getting worried because thank God Stafford lost his mind and threw it in double coverage tell me you were not about to lose your mind as they were marching this ball and thought they were going to lose because I certainly was sit up there looking like damn man we cannot lose this game come on y'all buckle up that's all I'm asking if your answer to that is well it's only one week what week can I start to critique them objectively and fairly on something this is you going against a team that was not at its best you didn't have your best day and it showed on every level against backups like seriously yeah it makes me worried about a little bit next week because Tampa at least in my opinion is a much better team like over at least that to a roster standpoint I think they just have an overall way more complete roster than the Rams do and that's the truth we we had to complete we I just I expect more and when you have high expectations like me and stuff like that I get it I understand you're gonna have some hard games this was not one of them you had a home game on a season where people were expecting you to at the very least win a division go to the NFC championship and make it to a Super Bowl and you struggled against a makeshift paper maché I'm G tell you something you keep that same ing every person who talking about is just one week understand something they just gave the blueprint for the rest of the season how to eliminate the Lions how to take the defense completely out of it we couldn't cover the flats we couldn't freaking we couldn't tackle we couldn't really get home on pressure here's another example look at D line getting 101s come on look at the look look at look at the look one two three four look at this look at this m talked about it who the hell is this tackle to do this to to Aiden Hudson you gonna tell me he got trip right there I just saw a comment that said they was out there playing hockey because they was they was on they was out there ice skating stop stop playing with me look at this this dude right here didn't know what the hell was going on number 61 with Davenport what was the bull rush where was all this come on bro don't tell me that this stuff don't matter and guess what for the people who talk about pressure this counts this counts as pressure but who in the hell cares when he gets a first down who cares that count as the pressure who cares we got to be better that's my point that's my point we're GNA face better offensive lines than this look at this this a blitz one two three four they got one over here two on Davenport I don't know what the [ __ ] going on with elen I I don't stunt I don't know that was the slowest stunt but hey but look at this you telling me Oh it it wasn't like look at this look how look that play action was even worth the damn five people coming five and he got time to sit up here and Survey the field and do this and you wonder why I'm bitching about the performance of the they was marching bro this whole Drive had my blood pressure up had my body want to think about diabetes you hear he me this how much I was like yo this can't be happening the whole time look at another play very nice play after look at look just look that report gets in there right how sway how tell me house sway finally get pressure oh first Miss I'm just saying but but he getting double team loot where he beat it because this what this what professionals do against the backups to the backups the backup is in now how yeah you can't you can't this is Stafford too this ain't that ain't Caleb Williams that ain't J that's what I'm saying this not when is Stafford become Michael Vic look at this when is he when was it when was it Stafford Jackson I don't remember it being Stafford Jackson how come on man make a play these were longer routes and we still wasn't getting home early in the game Quick Pass McCoy I ain't gon to lie later in the game they were calling longer routes because they realized we wern't getting home look at this one look at this look at this I don't even know how this happens Carlton Davis what the hell what the oh my God oh my God hey oh my no I didn't even notic that I didn't Noti I did wait a minute wait a minute can somebody please go and check to find what sniper was in the building that day can I zoom this up can I make this bigger let me see hold on hold on I I know what I'm going do I know exactly what I'm going to do I got to see this up close I got to see it up close I got to see it up close let me see if I can get this up close is that big they gonna let me oh my God that's as big as they gonna let me get it all right just just focus on dog right here focus on 23 who shot him oh my god oh Jesus oh God tripped nobody even got in his way tripped oh my god oh it's only week one Luke oh my God who who who the who the sniper that caught Carson David look at this he looks like a deer who just came out for the first time third round pick by the way look at this the sad part is you know you got it bad when you use your own player to stop yourself from falling and still completely collapse what the this is like that Michael Jackson thing and moon walker remember when he leaned forward look at the recovery on the knees and everything look at this terion doing his assignment but guess what then he tripic Oh my Jesus Christ I can't make this [ __ ] up yeah I just we got to be better I'm sorry my my expectations are too high for this kind of stuff I should have I should have dropped the biggie beat who shot you it's week one I got it Gunner what else you got for me man I just I got I gotta get to two more people I mean yeah just the like the second half what was this same stuff from last year where we only have these like three and out three and out three and out turnover it's like we got at least turn these three outs to like seven playay drive or something to at least run some timeout like I get you're not going to score on every single drive but this how we let teams back in the game Ben Johnson play calling on top of our defense inability to tackle and get home allowed the Rams to look like they are a better team that game should have been a 14 or more Point beat down win yeah I agree we should have at least won that game by at least 10 or more cheap Detroit Lions meme says win is a win I guess I mean I mean there's there's a lot of teams that said that in the past you remember the Steelers team that started off 11 and0 when is win but you look at every all those wins when you think about something like when you think about something that's true it's absolute right one plus one always equals two right that's absolute right yeah sure a win is a win if a teen if a little kid let's say he's I don't know 10 or 12 he comes up and knock you out like like what happened to Cat Williams all right is you still saying a win is a win or you saying hey man how did you get knocked out by a kid or if he beats the kid down man you fighting a kid see sometimes when we get into this concept of a win is a win we got to put it into context and what I look at was a game where we should have been the Craig of the team where we're beating up Debo at Debo got a good shot on us because they got a good shot on us early on but when we got to overtime it took a coin toss the luck of a draw tell me tell me it would have you felt that it would have been different had they won the coin toss oh yeah tell me yeah there was absolutely a damn good chance they could have won the game if they got the ball first that's all I'm saying shout out to you Chief Detroit Lions man he said I I gotta I gotta you know we got to be better I agree I'm just saying all right well especially these next these next couple games because I honestly I think Arizona is gonna be an underrated team this year I think they're going to be much better and they play really damn they play really damn well against the bills too and historically we've been bad about trying to CSE yeah multiple quarterbacks yep so I I get it I get it I'm not knocking anything I'm just merely making the observation that's all I'm doing let me bring in my next guest Gunner you know I appreciate you being so patient with me I want to try to get through everybody so we can get up out of here to watch the Monday Night Football game cause I know we got to see what the competition look like if anybody's gonna be obstacle fors to 49ers is going to be one yeah we ter other Achilles well I mean I maybe be snaps this time I mean you put some evil on that brother T other one up I just I mean Dam he a even he even on the Packers you still I I don't like that like I don't even like to be honest I don't even like that Jordan loves her I want to play all the teams at their best me too and and and and that's what I want to see i i i f i felt that given all the circumstances with the Rams this was going to be a runaway and so that was my expectation that's what I and you know it it didn't go the way I wanted it to go but I I appreciate you for hanging around let me bring in uh Dan and then Detroit D is next okay all right appreciate it you can hang in the back and I'll bring you back in in the few just hang in the back I'm G bring in Dan man I'm GNA get through all these I just again Ben Johnson's play calling uh the defense of line not getting home miss tackles it was just a whole [ __ ] show but Dan talks footballers in the building what's going on brother talk to me oh man I hey Luke I just want to show some love man congratulations winning week one uh look man I I didn't have any skin in the game I'm not lons fan but uh so here's what happened man I'm I'm I'm messed up I DVR the game and then I hit the wrong button and it went live so I saw the score I before I even watched first play I knew it was goingon to be 1713 fourth quarter about six minutes left then I start watching the game and it's 173 right so I'm like okay so they didn't score for like the whole second half so what what happened golf get hurt am man ra went down pan went down and now I'm listening to you talking I I just had to jump in because because everything you're saying just makes sense if I'm a lions fan I'm I'm kind of mad and then I get the overtime and I'm like this is smart this is smart I love what Ben Johnson did in overtime because you know what he did he leaned on your strength you run the ball run run run run run I think they had one pass run run run one pass a swing pass at that and and that's what you should have done the rest of the game and I Love the clips that you're bringing up because uh I think you caught this I didn't see one single stunt I I don't see any um you know I I said this last year do you remember last year I came on and predicted a 4123 Chiefs Beatdown week yeah remember remember saying I remember you saying that remember me saying that um like you know and and uh you know I'm sitting here and I'm like is is is it there's no way they can lose this game and and I I love what Ben Johnson did in overtime but um I mean defensively i i i criticized Aon Glenn last year and I mean uh look you got four backup offensive lineman you're up by two touchdowns and you lose that coin flip I mean I mean you know I just I want to give you some love and and congratulations I real fast because I I I want you to get through everybody I can't wait to watch M Night Football either you're a touchdown favorite against the Bucks how how good do you feel about that I feel better about us being a touchdown favorite against the bucks but the reality of it is is I also have to question because Baker Mayfield look like he could not be touched yesterday and again they were they were going against Washington right that defense is going to be bad all year yeah so I get it but at the end of the day there were there were things that concerned me because I thought the Rams had some form of success I know that it started dying down in the end um because we started buckling up but still I'm a Bucs Fan too right so I think the lions are going to beat the Bucks and I think that they are going to beat him by more than a touchdown the problem that I'm concerned with I do the pro because this the thing yeah we yeah you getting Godwin back you get you still got Evans right you got those pieces right but essentially your Russian attack is not like what it should be oh God they they can't run the ball at all so if you're not able to effectively run the ball this should set up okay in my brain my brain say this is shut up for us to be able to play the pass even harder which means that R dine that I'm bitching about should get home you know they they do a thing called a stun I I didn't see anyone in any of those clips that you ran but there's this thing called a stunt where you get a little creative I have to admit I like the fact that oque I finally heard his name I he I know usque coming out of college I wanted him in Kansas City but it it didn't work out you know and you guys got him but uh um I want to doque I'm glad he's making an an impact Davenport if the can stay healthy if he can stay healthy you got you guys got a player there but um I I I I'm really critical about Aaron Glenn I've been critical about him I'm not a big fan of his this but this right here was not an Aaron Glenn problem this is the this was a Ben Johnson lack of personnel on the dline I've been asking who's gonna be robbing the Batman for the longest and you know if I'm I'm listen people people hear this they think it's a negative but I'm I'm saying I'm I'm telling people that aah Hudson is Batman like people don't realize how power Batman is one of the most powerful superheroes in right so I'm giving him that right and I'm saying who do we get to help but you need you need this this next draft is a defensive Laden draft well we about I about I see I don't listen the only offensive player I need to see at best because we only got a first a second a first a second a fifth a seventh and a seventh we traded our third and fourth away yeah man yeah I don't even talk about get mad I'm get mad thinking about it all right I'm not at all happy by the way that that pick that you traded so you can draft that running back s safety like I I didn't see him play at all but he played fullback for us he came in and play fullback fullback okay yeah and he came in on our twack set with mcgomery uh a few times too it was funny ESPN kept on reporting him as a safety and I was like why the hell did you pick a safety and then you guys use him as a running back running back but I can tell you this much just just this just to show you how I know Ben Johnson and jarro gin was tripping a little bit I want y'all to see this it's third and five there was a lot of plays left out there by the Lions and a lot left by the Rams but this play right here I I'm so thankful I'm so thankful that this happened because who in the hell was he throwing to oh I remember this I remember this and and I was I I was a little curious about this you you have to answer this here because James Williams had a great game give him credit first 100 yard game you know I mean you traded up 20 picks in the first round about time he got a 100 yard game instead of betting on football are you guys mad at Aman R you give him 112 million and he comes out three catches is 14 yards or no no because you gotta you got to remember you don't get mad when somebody start to pay attention to your Marquee player everybody knows that I'm and R Bron is this what what I really was upset about was all the fans who talked all that crazy stuff about Josh Reynolds leaving I understand he had some crucial drops in the NFC championship game I do but I never believed in Donovan people Jones I saw enough of him to say he's not ready yet and I knew that losing Josh Reynolds was a huge loss they need another option out there you guys picked up Tim Patrick and he's gonna be that guy he had to be I I'm here's the deal Tim Patrick great story great player I I mean he just he just gets injured all the time if he stays healthy you guys got a really really really good I think solid number two guy I'm gonna throw something crazy at you because I was looking at uh the contract for golf because in three years from now you're gonna paying 69 over $69 million in 2026 it wouldn't surprise me if if you guys end up not resigning uh j j or maybe even moving him at the trade deadline yeah I I feel like that would be like you talk about this year I think this year yeah I think that would be like Dan that' be the most wishful thinking you ever had in a long time I'm G tell you why the the receiving court is already thin you are not in a in a season where you have an opport and expectations of Super Bowl getting rid of one of the hottest speediest receivers in the league you're not doing you might you might you might have to and and the reason why don't you can't down the line the way you have your cap set up it it's bad but uh I'm G the cap the cap is not that big of a deal Dan because I'm tell you why you have to look at it right now our receiving court is already thin when he got hurt and came out we C we our starter receivers at that point was khif Raymond and and and St Brown and we ran a ball why because we wanted to just give a chance for J I'll tell you what I really I have to you know you you criticized Ben Johnson and I think you did a good thing by criticizing Ben Johnson because when you're up 17 to3 against a depleted team you should just put your your foot on their throat choke the life out of them you should do it and that bothered me and going into overtime I knew score was going to be 1713 before I turned on the game which was dumb on my part but anyway forget that part but going into overtime I love what Ben Johnson did he said you know what I don't want to quit [ __ ] around I'm sorry am I allowed to cuss on here you are allowed to cuss I'm I'm glad you said that like I'm gonna quit [ __ ] around run run run run run one pass F run run run and and and you didn't run Gibbs you ran Montgomery and I thought that was genius and and get credit and it was the type of run that they had you ran the guy who was known for breaking tackle at least on the initial one down they throat that's the most embarrassing part for the Rams because they were gased earlier and didn't do it so that's why I said it's a little delusional you know to see what Ben Johnson did and why most fans should be concerned with the play calling from Ben Johnson this game going into the next game I I got used to Ben Johnson coming up with plays that I never seen before like he was justad lions are a lot of fun to watch the lions are a lot of fun to watch offensively but I was I was a little disappointed and and like I said you know tell may maybe call eron Glenn up tell him that they got this new thing called a stunt where you start moving your defensive lineman around or something but uh um anyway good good job on the win you do like the Bucks to co you do like the Lions to cover seven though I do all right I do my Buccaneers rushian attack is not where it's supposed to be it's it's been dead last last two years and it wasn't good last year B Baker did good but I mean that that that defense terrible Wasington know spoiler alert I I got I got I got your Lions winning but I don't know if they're GNA cover seven but it's it's going to be a good game good game well you know me I always appreciate you coming over and if y'all don't know I'll be on some I'll be on sometimes on Dan Channel just talking General football and it's in totality so just be looking out for that I I'll announce it when those days come but you know appreciate you coming through I ain't gonna lie you threw me for a spinner with that that J Mo take I'm like what the hell no way I seriously I I wouldn't be surprised if if uh you'll hear some rumors about J Mo being shopped and and the reason why say that it never happen Tim Patrick comes in I I really think he's a good number two but but if you if he's if you think Tim Patricks are number two Amar Raj already in a slot who's number one no no I'm sorry I think Aman Raj are number one he's he's the number one as a slot guy though even if you go back to a bunch of interviews yeah you got you see you have Tim Patrick as your standard X and and I think with Jameson Williams I think he had a great game but I I think it's I think it's a flash in the pan type of thing I I don't I'm not expecting it to happen again if it does Kudos but when I look at the Lions I'm looking long term right I'm looking at I'm look at 2026 60 it's like it's over 69 million his contract is actually a three-year deal when you really to break it down so and and and shout out to joh Jones for poting out golf probably won't be here in 2026 no no they're gonna restructure that or or change it or more than likely so so again the chances of them getting rid of a receiver and they already depleted receiving Court just doesn't make sense no you're you know I started thinking about you know you got a good point about it being depleted I I I just want to say this though I watch a lot of Tim Patrick and if he stays healthy it's a really really solid addition real solid addition to and and best by the way best of luck against against Tampa Bay that's gonna be a good game I can't wait for it man I'm be be in all right well you know me you know me man I appreciate you coming on brother I got two more to get and then we going we G to talk some more but appreciate you brother all right man you have a good one Luke you too thanks for being so patient man that's Dan talks football bring in Detroit D talk your stuff Detroit D what's going on Luke G man first man thanks for having me on brother for sure for sure thanks for coming I really wasn't happy with my boy BB you know that's my favorite Detroit Lion at the moment I got his jersey but I got terion J Jersey showing now he missed too many open tackles and he dropped two potential game changing interceptions yeah yeah I expect a lot out of Mr Branch because he's a Bonafide baller um I wasn't happy with the way golf played last night to me for whatever reason it seemed like he was looking downfield more so than looking for you know whatever the defense was giving him and just being golf you know what I'm saying taking what the D giv them um I luk give our defense a little slack you know I I gave him a little slack remember I said I said that the linebackers were good I said the secondary was improved my issue was that D line because there were play Bruno I know it's damn Bruno okay all right don't you you said it I can't say I got I got accus being racist for saying the last time I got to be careful these days what about Bruno hey man I love Bruno um Bruno he's an Elite pass rusher is he giving us the numbers we want not every game no but he's effective last night I really think it was more or less a game planning thing to where they would just dinking and dunking us all night getting the ball out quick now uh Davenport he whiffed on the sack hutch whiffed on one and he also got tripped you know to each his own we all been athletes and played know on one level or another and everybody's different with their uh agility I'mma say that fair enough that's fair I'm glad I'm glad to see young J Mo get his just due you know what I mean and be implemented what people don't understand is if him and G can get the clicking that's really gonna take our offense to a whole another level agree okay I mean St St Brown and leaport gonna really be able to eat but I'mma tell I'mma say this Luke you know because I I like to call you Mr stir the pot because you speak nothing but the truth you know what I meantime the pot need to be stirred we we get too comfortable with that with the fluff I don't want the fluff yeah you know everybody been on Mr Gibbs fat and Gibbs he's a great talent but hey man Monty just showed you man put the ball in his [ __ ] hands he gonna handle business you know what I mean I'll put it this way I'll put it this way in the first half you started seeing more of a spark when they started giving the ball to givs to get outside versus Monty the problem is is the play calling was so effed up where they were trying to have Monty go outside inside like which I'm cool with but it was the way that was being blocked it was the way that it was called you know what I'm saying like you would run somebody in motion um but for the most part you know you know for a fact that hes or NES whatever his damn name is you know he this is he blocking every time you know but I know I'm saying but he he's he's kind of new to this fullback thing then you got vaky in there as as a kind of a new footb and you run a stretch plate I'm like bro what what the hell like well I'm going tell you like this Luke not to cut you off I would love to see Ben use Monty and Gibbs at the same time put Gibbs in the in the goddamn motion he for Jet Sweep or something and he didn't that's whatk you that's what I'm saying you gotta you what I would like to see Ben do is is make them guard every inch of the field and we have enough explosive players and weapons on offense to do that agree agree now I we gotta be more consistent in our play calling when we do get a high hand and riding it because especially once we go up 17 to three yeah that's what I G to say that's when we unleash the kraken we we we we putting demon out we put Monte out there Craig winners uh Gibbs we we we pounding the rock pounding the rock play action Le Porter whoever off the play action but once we went up 17-3 we should have went we we we F to bleed the clock and we going we going to impose our wheel on you and that's why I'm upset about Ben he got a little too cute bro and they stick to the script yeah and that's the same crap he was doing last year that cost us leads in the third quarter agree agree and again the only reason I gave the secondary some love is because of what you pointed out even though it was a negative I remember just thinking damn those are all potential interception now we got one of them we really should have had about four or five of them we should have had four for sure but I'm going tell you this though I like the fact that AG started know he did a a little adjusting late in the game when he start making BB dropped come down and pick up cup in the motion but my whole thing on that it shouldn't take you three quarters of a game to adjust to that and then too I had to think you know they trying to they don't want to show their hand too much either on offense and defense either but come on man we trying to win a Super Bowl agree shout out to dagger time you is so funny for that if y'all don't know what the dagger time is man come on man that that that's uh Quint Trisha dagger time just say I thought it P house crazy for that one I thought it was funny but yeah I like I said uh Super Saiyan says he agreed yeah four interceptions for sure yeah check this out Luke why everybody know yes uh I must admit Arnold was a little handsy out there but give him a little time he ain't play much in the preas age let him let him get his feet wet but I'm G tell you who the dog gonna be 15 that R straw he gonna be that real dog oh yeah you saw what happened when when when Arnold got hurt for a second and came out yeah RW R straw was like okay I got this then they took him right back out the difference between it is is this aiek aiek to me some aggression I'm like oh look Atek like stop AEK is gonna be a dog bro he he originally if I'm not mistaken he from the D originally you know what I mean he already under siiz so he got that scrappiness about him you don't stay in the league this you know and get a second deal unless you can ball bro agree agree now we got we got some we got some some some some some pride nation in here saying you sound like a young sexual Entertainer that's fine Brother Hey I'm 52 years old Luke so sounding anything young is good for me hell yeah hey hey hey I with you on that cu the other day my son did something I was like yo that didn't I'm not used to that he juked the sh he I'm not with that hey check this out Luke hey man you know uh I'm a big fan of lions talk live I would love for you and lions talk live and micro Mike to come together and do some type of show for us bro I think it'll be off the chain great for the Lions Community man and I don't give a [ __ ] with nobody think we going to the Super Bowl we winning that [ __ ] Detroit versus everybody hey Detroit versus everybody I agree man and I'll hit them up and see what we can come up with man it's a scheduling thing for me personally uh just even doing this man you know shout out to me to my wife for holding it down CA already I already know you got a new little one running around there yeah and yeah and she and he you know usually remember in the past i' be just holding the baby like bump it gotta do a show yeah you hey thanks for having me on Luke always man one love and hey hope the channel continue to grow man and wish best for you and the fam hey appreciate you brother so much man all hey man Detroit D in the building man he say hey anything that sound young to him he taking it Ed W was in the building what up though brother hey no fluke Luke what up bro you said no fluke Luke hey bro I'm just listen I just want to point out certain things because like I said to me like I said we we you know I hate to say it we were fortunate and it came down to a coin toss and I'm telling you that most experts believe whoever won that coin toss is winning that game oh I got no problem with that matter of fact I'm super estatic how they took that coin toss and just ran it down I'm running it you know I'm running it and you ain't stopping me that I've never seen the Lions team do that as many games I've ever watched the Lions game so Barry juked and got got his way in there all our people none no running backers ever just done that so I I enjoyed that part of it I show this clip on the screen because this counts as a pressure right you back into this pressure okay this this I'm just saying I just want I want people to understand something this counts as a pressure right now why would this be something that I care about you right there just dude you right there but look what happens yeah third and five but he he didn't even see the receiver coming over there either no he he threw it he threw it to a spot yeah he threw it to a spot he he knew where he wanted to go and he threw it to his spot it's impressive because all of this is in his face but again just grab him they tried I ain't GNA take back take away the effort oh oh they panicked and tried I mean he was doing that when he was with us I got much respect for Stafford me too much respect for Stafford what he's going to do out there but I I I want to follow up on uh my 52 year old friend over there that was just on Detroit D talk to me being a 52 year old man myself um I was gonna say bro Ben Johnson I thought he would have got better with all the tools but I see right now he's like that kid that got everything in the playhouse and he don't know which toy he want to play with his game plan are all over the place that's a good that's a that's a good one that's a real good analogy you right I've been that kid before not at my own house but at my cousin who was super spoiled house and then I never seen so many toys in my life but I know what you mean where you like what do I play with or like you going to you going to Toys R Us and you know you got like 10 bucks but you want everything that's a good analogy that's a very good analogy yeah because the continuation of playing Mani m m you know he gotta warm him up he gotta give him a few he might get stopped a few he's always gonna put that pressure on but I guarantee you part of the reason that that team was so dog tired at the end was because of the very few running plays that they were running and a lot of stuff they were doing in the middle I I'm I mean I saw them play in the robber position more than I've ever seen other team they always play cover two but today or yesterday was all robber and some cover too so they were hellbent on making sure uh Brown stayed contained and you beat me with the rest of your team and we had no answer we had zero answer one or two good passes out deep which could have broke it back open but again he won't stay consistent if you keep see you got all the replays look how many times you you put uh a little wide receiver out there on he had one on ones three4 out of the the time he was out there on oneon-one throw the ball to him either extend it or beat or punish him in the middle and get put Montgomery out there and then take Gibbs and do do more make Gibbs in there he shift you punish him suing them all of that punish them that's just my I'm sorry I got emotional because bro you got everything you need you just need to take and punish the teams they get tired 100% 100% And this the other thing that I noticed watching that game too often they never made Stafford move off his spot it was one of the things that that that got the secret to the sauce for that Jonas Jackson Jonas I I promise you with my heart of hearts I know Jonas went there and they went through some film and was like what wrong what was he think what was your coach thinking about on this what was he thinking about that and during their game plays watching the watching the film and sta was like oh oh I know how to do this oh y'all in that formation oh I got this they defense was ready yes and there's only one way to be that ready I mean that's a good point I can't argue with that that Viewpoint that's a very good point that you know that no doubt that he's gonna try to help his team beat his old team um you know it's it's just it's just man I just that game could have went so many different ways and it's so frustrating because I've still remembered what happened previously so that's why it San Francisco game yeah that all reminiscing of San Francisco where I saw that lead and I'm like here we go with this come on man buckle up you know what I'm saying like um it just it's just one of them things and and again I'm happy we won I'm happy I'm I'll take the win I'm happy but I got you know if we don't show if we don't we playing the uh the buck and that wasn't no kick walk last last year no so we don't see no improvement on what's going on this season is gonna one down I think they'll win 10 games right now I got them at a good 13 or more but if we can't make our identity something better than am man because Amon Bron is a byproduct of running the ball exactly he is not the main person exactly 100% exactly so I I agree with you on that 100% uh shout out to two guys in the podcast and shout out to Detroit fan report um who says still suck in the third quarter I listen I typed that earlier hell I know right listen I'm still listen my biggest takeaways from this game was play calling by Ben Johnson which I I told people in in the 49ers game I said no this is what lost a game it wasn't a drop pass it was this [ __ ] right here it was this this type of play call it was this stuff right here you went away from this when it's like okay cool you still in the game right so so okay so let me ask you a good a good question here l i I know you was a little little hard on on our defense just a little bit but def the defensive line to be specific so but well last year was the backup guys to the line but but as a whole holding them to 10 points for as long as they did do you do you really think that this score that that that this uh score that we had where it was 10 to three should have been much larger yes I agree too bro yeah talking about a team with half of their offensive line is out like like bro I'm not even making this up like they had one starter finish the game one everybody else was gone right puka gone they TI end had his way in most cases but that was the quick passing and then they buckled up on that right so yeah I yeah I thought we should have I thought the game should have been you what Dallas did to Cleveland is what we should have did to the Rams but I'm wondering again do Ben Johnson know how to put his Legos together because he because he got the pieces but he I don't think he know how to how to put him out there and game plan for something suck the team into thinking we doing something and then just unleash all the Beast and weapons but I know for a fact that golf best way to play is play action and if we ain't got no Run game and they stopping us ain't nothing else gonna work agree shout out to Marcus Willis who says Ben Johnson needs to have Mike Mars as a consultant to help him learn how to use his Personnel properly I don't even think it's that much of that of the issue it's him overthinking and second guessing that people are figuring out what he doing and to me forget all that don't worry about if they figured it out or they know what's going on go play ball seriously go go play ball man and and I'm gonna give some credit to some the one person that I did get I gave zero credit and that's Glenn because I'mma actually say Glenn was making changes I mean he was running his guys he had a and backing going back in backing out he had his linebackers pressing down on Cooper I'm like oh okay I I see you trying to do something with your toys which is pissing me off because Ben Johnson should be able to do something Ben Johnson is too smart yeah for us to only score if you really think about it for us to only score like 21 points we we should not against a team that's hurting Stafford let me show you something let me show you something Stafford had that line that he had was worse than some of the lines that he had in Detroit and Stafford was not and Stafford wasn't even sacked as much as he was with us like like think about some of the lines that Stafford had when he was in Detroit and how bad they were all I ask is is for us to be objective and to be critical of the bad parts of the game because I know all of you were over there like going crazy watching it unfold not to mention when you look up and it's four minutes and something on the clock and and and Jared G trying to force a pass to J Mo gets it almost intercepted like they had a lot of plays where they left a lot of football out there so did we but we needed to show what it was now the only Grace that I save for this and I saved this for last because as we getting ready to get up out of here the only Grace is the humble bug gonna get they ass together because now that feeling was not what they wanted to feel and I'm gonna tell you something else you might want to go back and look at those locker room interviews because some of them players were saying things that I was like what he actually said that J Mo in particular gave a little tidbit where he basically said you know something that that Peak my ears and said man I know Ben Johnson didn't tell you that J Mo I know he didn't there no way so I'm just putting it out there uh you did he get more passes did he get more passes this game than he got in other games J Mo yeah man that man went five catches for 121 right right but how many times was he targeted uh I'll gon find out real quick yeah I gonna say look at the times that he was targeted this game and then compared to any other game that you want over from last season his Target was about the same yeah he was targeted nine times he caught five of them for 121 so yeah close to about his average yeah about you know yeah so I I don't see the the utilization except that it worked a little bit more this time versus the others it it was just that his speed killed everybody that all them Crossing routes that he was running and cutting short was killing them they were they were on St Brown's head bro I'm sorry yeah so we got him on the edge to just to be out there and run decoys no just run the ball and then open it let it open up for him because people gonna have to sit sit on it and that's gonna open J Mo to just do what J Mo do because they have to sit down there and respect that damn run because Montgomery is a beast and we keep playing him like he's second fer you ain't gonna get no fight out of me um let me see but I'm Gonna Let You Go with that newborn and and the crew out here all right no flute remember that no no no no fluke but we can be better saying we can be better I I believe in constructive criticism and we can be better that's all I'm saying I think it will develop over the next few weeks shout out to you Dr Detroit Marcus nine targets nine with the number shout out to you dirty glove Williams and I do want to show this really quick um just you know um just for purposes of of showing this really quick the pick them leag in case y'all were wondering where you are there it is the bad guy John kapler is sitting pretty at the top of this with his picks Looney tun you're number two I am a beast 331 it's number three I'm at number four shout out to me MAA H right behind me lions all day right behind him kurs Cruz behind him Michael Huck is behind I mean listen BR y'all did damn good picking be honest with you and I know we gotta go down to the bottom to see who didn't do so well but he got so much time to come back so what up though Lion King is gonna come back gunar a lot of Team fail me a lot of team failed me no no I picked the Titans to beat the they threw that away I picked the Cardinals they were up they threw that away let's talk about it gunar because we got to talk about Gunner say a lot of teams felt him so once the games are played we can see who pick what gunar says he took ATL I never thought ATL was going to beat Pittsburgh I thought that Pittsburgh defense would be too much offense to be honest you I didn't feel I bro if you were I watch that game Arizona was on their ass they were they were and Josh uh uh Josh Ellen went full uh [ __ ] this I'm out of here and and took it over I did it pretty much like you I did take Tennessee uh no I did I'm lying I took the Bears I did not think I just I did not trust the the Tennessee Titans head coach or their ability to generate anything of value this is the one that everybody got wrong nobody had no England beating Cincinnati yeah no I didn't I didn't think that was gonna happen I thought they were gonna get their last uh you got Houston right you got Miami right you got New Orleans right the Giants over Minnesota I I was so mad because I was like before the game start I was like ah there's a chance I think Minnesota on there I was like there's no way Sam darl goes off on like there's no way this happens I did not see that coming at all it happened I'm like I did not see that coming at all and then you went and you took Seattle not a bad idea uh and then you took Cleveland I took Cleveland over Dallas as as well and yeah I thought their pass rush was just going to be way too much because Dallas lost a lot of offensive lineman exactly and they had coach is a is an idiot and he's going to get fired I Jerry T Jerry had uh Jason Garett for like what 12 years or something like it's gonna be a while no no I'm talking about the Browns head coach Brown oh yeah yeah he's getting fired uh Tampa Bay you took was smart and Detroit obviously as y'all can see I'm taking San Francisco for the night uh just to put it out I think I took the 49ers yeah I mean but if you're wondering why John is ahead of Looney Tune and I'm a beast I didn't see any tiebreakers in there it's not the tie Breakers right it's not the tiebreakers so what I did was this time around I I had to do what's called an automatic tiebreaker in other words um it's based on the number of um favorites pick to Underdogs John picked New England and that New England Underdog pick oh okay oh yeah he took Cincinnati he took Cincinnati but that right there that Underdog pick killed everybody's stuff because that was the biggest Underdog loss so where John suceeded was he took Tennessee which is an underdog Pick Tennessee didn't come through and he took ATL but since Cincinnati died out it didn't matter since I took Cincinnati I also took the Giants who was an underdog took Vegas who was the underdog and then I took Cleveland who was the favorite but Dallas won so he gets the underdog for Dallas that I did not take which that's why he got the bump because he got the bump too and then where you look at his matchups head-to-head with Looney Tunes and I'm a beast you can see where he wins the Philly game over the Green Bay game so he gets that extra push Looney tun gets ahead of him because he got Pittsburgh over ATL right Chicago goes here but it was this pick that charges versus this one and because of this pick right here that's what pushed them ahead so that's why I got it set that way because when people were putting in the tie Breakers they were not doing it right and I was like bump that we're just gonna take that out and let it automatically do it based on I like this new system better the old one you had to like guess the exact score yeah who gonna SC the most least I changed it that's what it was all right people we've been on for hour and 45 minutes I could not have said this more I appreciate every single one of you uh Crossing routes were murder brother you have no idea watching how that went uh Luke who you got for this New York Giant New York Jets and San Francisco gang I got the 49ers I know a lot of people is hyped up on the Jets but they gonna have to show make me a liar and prove me wrong all right you got any final thoughts Gunner uh you know I'm just happy football's back hey I agree I agree it feels like you the offseason so long until until it finally hits 100% I 100% agree y'all know me I cannot end the show unless I ended on a positive note and today's positive C comes from the internet I don't know who said this but I love the absolutely he says stop sitting on skills and talent that could change your entire life and get to work stop sitting on skills and talent tal that could change your entire life get to work man this would hit me different because I know I have a certain skill I know that I have certain talents and I do sit on them I'm I'm probably one of the biggest sit on the person thing because I would rather help the next man than to see myself shine it sounds strange but it's a truth and the reality is is in most cases is that many of us are sitting on talent I once heard this a long time ago from from an old friend of mine who told me that there's more talent in the graveyard than any other place and it blew my mind and it's somebody in here right now who has an ability and a skill that if they go and take that next step it could change their life there's somebody in here who knows how to fix cars but they're afraid to go and be going get that certification to be a mechanic because they feel like it's gonna be too much work and too much money but it can change your life there's somebody in here right now who can be the best music producer there is the best song writer there is but they too afraid to do the research or to just put the song out there because they they don't want to be judged or to be rejected some things need to just be rejected some doors need to be closed sometimes you need to hear no just so you can know that you're gonna be okay through the bull you're gonna be all right when they reject you you're gonna be all right when they close the door you're gonna be all right when they tell you no but the talent is still there the the skill is still there they can't take that from you that's why it's a talent and a skill some things are just given to you to be good at and instead of you sitting on it you got to get to work you got to take that skill and put into practice it's somebody in here who really knows how to get a a computer doing some things that it should not be doing but they don't want to go and sit through the certification test you're wasting some skill that could change your life and not only just your life but the lives of people who depend on you like your children some of those people that you got to take care of like your parents who are Ellen can be changed with one simple skill I'm simply asking you to no longer sit on your hand to no longer sit on your skill to no longer sit back and just allow that god-given talent that you have to waste do something about it and get to work because whether you know it or not changing your life ain't as scary as it seems it's just a part of life it's always changing anyway with that being said ladies and gentlemen hit that like subscribe notification Bell and if you don't do nothing else don't be no CHP please please do your research make sure you get your pcks in for the game and as always we are out I'll be at again tomorrow
