1
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:09,780
My agent one time told me, you know,
Kirk, a great strength of yours is that

2
00:00:09,780 --> 00:00:10,780
keep your eyes downfield.

3
00:00:11,380 --> 00:00:15,600
A great curse of yours is that you keep
your eyes downfield, because many times

4
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:20,800
I don't even think or look at the rush,
and so I'll throw as if there's nobody

5
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:24,320
around me, and then I'll go back and
watch the clip, and there was a helmet

6
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:27,940
a shoulder pad right in my ribs, you
know, right before I threw it.

7
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:31,440
As a pocket passer, I feel like that's
my job.

8
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:40,900
Home now or never throws.

9
00:00:41,900 --> 00:00:45,860
It's either when the window's closing
down, you've got to decide either I've

10
00:00:45,860 --> 00:00:48,740
to let it rip and risk an interception
here.

11
00:00:49,160 --> 00:00:49,979
Uh -oh.

12
00:00:49,980 --> 00:00:52,120
I'm sure Burrow floats it towards Chase.

13
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:53,840
And a diving interception.

14
00:00:54,140 --> 00:00:56,400
Or hold on to it and potentially take a
sack.

15
00:00:56,620 --> 00:01:00,060
Burrow steps up. And Burrow is crushed.

16
00:01:01,820 --> 00:01:03,040
Everything's moving really quickly.

17
00:01:05,300 --> 00:01:07,420
One to two seconds is all the difference
sometimes.

18
00:01:09,270 --> 00:01:12,830
Typically less than that, it's
milliseconds, it's half seconds, how

19
00:01:12,830 --> 00:01:15,730
window opens and closes for us down the
field.

20
00:01:19,750 --> 00:01:25,970
Against the Bills, it was the end of the
first half, and we were driving with a

21
00:01:25,970 --> 00:01:29,010
chance to score, I think it was a third
down, and I had St. Brown coming over

22
00:01:29,010 --> 00:01:32,310
the middle, and yeah, if I could have
waited just a millisecond longer.

23
00:01:32,940 --> 00:01:36,900
To kind of let him clear open and make
the throw where I wanted to, we would

24
00:01:36,900 --> 00:01:38,640
have had a nice completion there and
possibly points.

25
00:01:40,780 --> 00:01:46,300
But that's the game you play every week.

26
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:49,960
Great quarterbacks over the years had
the no -flinch mentality.

27
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:55,360
Standing in the pocket, staring down the
barrel, getting drilled, and

28
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:56,360
delivering.

29
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:01,500
I've done a couple of interceptions in
that situation this year. You usually do

30
00:02:01,500 --> 00:02:05,520
because those now or never throws are
sometimes pretty dicey.

31
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:11,540
But there also can turn out to be huge
plays.

32
00:02:24,860 --> 00:02:26,080
Oh, that was some throw.

33
00:02:26,300 --> 00:02:28,800
Hit as he throws. Got rid of it just in
time.

34
00:02:29,580 --> 00:02:31,220
Down goes Burrow.

35
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:33,840
Touchdown!

36
00:02:37,660 --> 00:02:44,600
This Bengals

37
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:48,280
team has put themselves behind the eight
ball with a 3 -5 start. But if there's

38
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:51,900
any team in this league that can dig
out, maybe it's a team with Joe Burrow.

39
00:02:51,980 --> 00:02:52,980
They've got a chance.

40
00:02:55,290 --> 00:02:58,270
Joe has the ball. Looking left. Throws.

41
00:02:58,510 --> 00:02:59,570
Caught by Gesicki.

42
00:02:59,990 --> 00:03:00,990
Touchdown pass.

43
00:03:01,310 --> 00:03:06,250
Number five for Joe Burrow to tie his
career high.

44
00:03:07,470 --> 00:03:11,670
Bengals won 41 -24 over the Las Vegas
Raiders.

45
00:03:12,050 --> 00:03:13,050
They're 4 -5.

46
00:03:13,150 --> 00:03:16,870
Their season is alive, at least. Through
all the talk of the past week, their

47
00:03:16,870 --> 00:03:17,870
season is alive.

48
00:03:19,110 --> 00:03:20,110
Joe, what's happening?

49
00:03:23,589 --> 00:03:24,589
How are you feeling today?

50
00:03:25,450 --> 00:03:26,450
So -so?

51
00:03:26,730 --> 00:03:27,730
We're next, please.

52
00:03:28,490 --> 00:03:34,710
A couple guys got pulled a bit.

53
00:03:37,750 --> 00:03:40,730
There was one. It looked like your head
was right in the middle of the guy's

54
00:03:40,730 --> 00:03:41,730
chest.

55
00:03:44,450 --> 00:03:45,450
Hit you through here at all?

56
00:03:46,470 --> 00:03:47,870
Yeah, I mean, that's kind of where I got
hit.

57
00:03:50,370 --> 00:03:52,090
What is so challenging about...

58
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:57,800
Playing in the NFL is the mindset and
the discipline and the routine of the

59
00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:02,520
season is daunting, and you have to have
your routine to make sure that your

60
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,860
body's right, and you have to have great
mental fortitude to go through that, I

61
00:04:05,860 --> 00:04:06,478
would say.

62
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,900
Just move your feet back. Just try to
get some blood from there.

63
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,680
Joey Boze is the head strength coach for
the Bengals.

64
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,340
Whatever you need, he's going to get it
done for you.

65
00:04:15,700 --> 00:04:20,180
He just allows me to stay super
consistent throughout the season to help

66
00:04:20,180 --> 00:04:21,180
my best self.

67
00:04:22,690 --> 00:04:24,290
One, two, three.

68
00:04:24,630 --> 00:04:26,170
Is the bicep the biggest thing right
now?

69
00:04:26,830 --> 00:04:31,630
Everything else feels great. Cool. Like,
I'm sore, but, like, not in the same

70
00:04:31,630 --> 00:04:32,389
way that I was.

71
00:04:32,390 --> 00:04:34,010
The swelling's down, though, right?

72
00:04:34,290 --> 00:04:35,790
To me, it does not look swollen.

73
00:04:36,110 --> 00:04:37,250
I feel better overall.

74
00:04:37,630 --> 00:04:38,970
Yeah. I was surprised.

75
00:04:39,310 --> 00:04:44,010
One specific thing is, like, I feel like
I'm good now. I was surprised how good

76
00:04:44,010 --> 00:04:45,010
you felt yesterday.

77
00:04:45,530 --> 00:04:48,470
I thought you were going to come in
pretty banged up.

78
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:51,960
Winning helps that.

79
00:04:54,580 --> 00:04:58,720
This is my fifth season with Joe, and
it's been a process.

80
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,960
But the thing about Joe, he's been very
consistent over the last five years.

81
00:05:04,020 --> 00:05:08,240
There's days we have to adjust because
of his body and how he feels and some of

82
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,260
the things going on maybe on the field.

83
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,440
We're constantly adjusting and being
ready to, you know, pivot.

84
00:05:20,130 --> 00:05:23,590
Today, he had the bicep. We want to get
some blood flow through there, but what

85
00:05:23,590 --> 00:05:24,890
can he do with pain?

86
00:05:26,310 --> 00:05:31,030
We're always working on some sort of
VMO, bottom of his quad, around his

87
00:05:31,270 --> 00:05:32,750
We'll go 225 for the last two.

88
00:05:33,970 --> 00:05:34,969
Great job.

89
00:05:34,970 --> 00:05:38,390
Just trying to get some movement in
there before tomorrow when he's asked to

90
00:05:38,390 --> 00:05:39,690
throw and do those things at practice.

91
00:05:41,430 --> 00:05:45,090
We're training to make him feel as good
as he possibly can on Sunday and

92
00:05:45,090 --> 00:05:46,090
perform.

93
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:52,460
Every game counts. I mean, the
Cincinnati Bengals season could be over

94
00:05:52,460 --> 00:05:55,060
weeks. They need to get on a roll, yes.

95
00:05:55,300 --> 00:05:58,680
But is their season completely shot? It
better not be.

96
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:00,759
What's going on?

97
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,120
How we doing, man? Great.

98
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:04,740
What's your take on these short weeks?

99
00:06:05,280 --> 00:06:11,100
I like them. I like them because there's
not enough time in the week for

100
00:06:11,100 --> 00:06:15,220
a ton of new stuff. So the game plan is
mostly...

101
00:06:15,950 --> 00:06:19,630
Things that you've done or repped,
playing a divisional opponent, you know

102
00:06:19,630 --> 00:06:25,030
opponent. This was going to be the kind
of game where I got to hang in there,

103
00:06:25,070 --> 00:06:26,670
take some hits, and make some big
throws.

104
00:06:27,630 --> 00:06:33,230
Divisional opponents always mean a lot,
and especially where we are right now,

105
00:06:33,430 --> 00:06:37,490
point of the year, playing Baltimore is
a big game.

106
00:06:39,190 --> 00:06:42,170
Week 10 of the NFL season brings us to
Baltimore.

107
00:06:43,020 --> 00:06:48,240
With the Ravens ready to go against Joe
Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals on

108
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:49,280
Thursday night football.

109
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:53,560
The Bengals started out 0 -3, but
they've turned things around. Tonight is

110
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,920
almost what you would call like a make
-or -break game for these guys.

111
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:02,280
Give Joe Burrow enough time and let him
outscore Lamar Jackson.

112
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:08,000
Primetime game, you always try to play
your best in those games because whether

113
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:09,000
you like it or not.

114
00:07:09,180 --> 00:07:12,140
You're going to be remembered by how you
play on primetime because that's when

115
00:07:12,140 --> 00:07:13,320
the most eyes are on you.

116
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,320
161 passing yards for Burrow in the
first half.

117
00:07:17,540 --> 00:07:19,740
He's in the gun with Chase Brown to his
right.

118
00:07:21,260 --> 00:07:22,260
Burrow.

119
00:07:22,580 --> 00:07:24,260
Byers caught Chase.

120
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:26,680
They're trying to chase him down.

121
00:07:26,940 --> 00:07:27,940
To the crib. To the crib.

122
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:29,039
To the crib.

123
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:32,500
Yeah! And they cannot touchdown.

124
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:35,480
Yeah!

125
00:07:36,100 --> 00:07:38,240
Let's fucking go. Let's go. Let's go.

126
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,740
And now the Ravens are put in a two
-touchdown hole.

127
00:07:42,140 --> 00:07:43,880
Big time. You're fast. You're really
fast.

128
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:48,520
He's fast.

129
00:07:48,740 --> 00:07:49,740
Very fast.

130
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:53,700
Big time play, big time drive. Let's log
back in now. Let's log back in. Let's

131
00:07:53,700 --> 00:07:55,060
log back in. Let's log back in.

132
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:57,260
We're up, and then we get the ball back.

133
00:07:58,260 --> 00:07:59,880
And then we fumble, and they score a
touchdown.

134
00:08:00,860 --> 00:08:03,220
And then it kind of went downhill from
there.

135
00:08:06,260 --> 00:08:07,260
Pressure.

136
00:08:09,020 --> 00:08:15,100
Touchdown. And they've erased a 14
-point deficit to lead by seven.

137
00:08:18,540 --> 00:08:23,260
Well, put the ball at the 30. See if Joe
Burrow can drive the Bengals 70 yards.

138
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:28,740
Burrow going deep. Getting free.

139
00:08:28,980 --> 00:08:30,620
Chase, look at this.

140
00:08:31,020 --> 00:08:33,900
You talk about number nine responding.

141
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,200
With Joe, everything with him is just.

142
00:08:37,610 --> 00:08:42,450
Straight timing, I got to expect the
ball to be there, and before I looked,

143
00:08:42,450 --> 00:08:43,450
ball was already on me.

144
00:08:51,790 --> 00:08:58,110
Because of Burrow and Jamar Chase,
knowing John Harbaugh,

145
00:08:58,250 --> 00:09:02,150
he's going to be aggressive here.
They're going to try to get a touchdown

146
00:09:02,150 --> 00:09:03,630
same time, work that clock down.

147
00:09:06,410 --> 00:09:07,410
Jackson.

148
00:09:08,550 --> 00:09:09,890
A little jump pass, touchdown.

149
00:09:10,350 --> 00:09:11,670
And they have the lead again.

150
00:09:12,070 --> 00:09:15,050
Joe Burrow lives with these kind of
opportunities.

151
00:09:15,630 --> 00:09:16,630
One timeout.

152
00:09:17,730 --> 00:09:18,890
With the pressure on.

153
00:09:19,190 --> 00:09:20,770
We're good. Down seven.

154
00:09:21,150 --> 00:09:23,630
I always think when the lights are
bright, that's when you're going to get

155
00:09:23,630 --> 00:09:28,230
best Joe Burrow. It's a balance of his
calmness and his urgency. I think that's

156
00:09:28,230 --> 00:09:29,310
what's really unique about him.

157
00:09:29,570 --> 00:09:30,570
Under pressure.

158
00:09:31,870 --> 00:09:32,870
He's got chase.

159
00:09:33,010 --> 00:09:34,410
That chase to the 23.

160
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:39,820
What a throw by Joe Burrow under that
kind of duress as he's getting high -low

161
00:09:39,820 --> 00:09:46,400
crush. I'm just amazed how Burrow,
picked in that pocket, he gets hit every

162
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,880
of the season. And the guy doesn't
flinch.

163
00:09:50,620 --> 00:09:53,300
In a blink of an eye, they're inside the
red zone.

164
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:54,520
Got to go, got to go.

165
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:58,840
From the five -yard line, Burrow catches
the shotgun snap. He throws it into the

166
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,280
end zone. Chase makes the catch.

167
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:03,920
Touchdown. Tampa 2 in the red zone.

168
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:06,500
It might be the best throw I've ever
made.

169
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:11,160
Two guys, the safety in the corner, and
I was able to get it just over their

170
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:12,160
fingertips.

171
00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:14,700
It's now or never throw. You have to
throw it.

172
00:10:15,820 --> 00:10:16,820
Not an easy throw.

173
00:10:17,100 --> 00:10:21,240
Joe Burrow throws the ball where only he
can make a play on the ball.

174
00:10:21,460 --> 00:10:24,000
What a throw by Burrow to get through
that traffic.

175
00:10:24,620 --> 00:10:29,700
Was he making this risky decision worth
it in this moment of the game?

176
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:31,920
That time it was.

177
00:10:33,670 --> 00:10:34,930
And then we cut it to one.

178
00:10:35,250 --> 00:10:38,950
And in that moment, I think going for
two is the right call.

179
00:10:40,030 --> 00:10:42,750
So now they go for the lead.

180
00:10:42,950 --> 00:10:44,150
I don't want to say the win yet.

181
00:10:48,210 --> 00:10:51,010
Yosef Otz to the right side. Chase to
the left side.

182
00:10:52,830 --> 00:10:54,270
To the right side he goes.

183
00:10:55,350 --> 00:10:57,390
Incomplete at the goal line.

184
00:10:57,970 --> 00:11:01,030
Hudson matched up one -on -one. Ball
just too high.

185
00:11:04,010 --> 00:11:08,170
And the Ravens are going to pull off a
big victory.

186
00:11:23,950 --> 00:11:25,710
Just fucking failed it.

187
00:11:30,890 --> 00:11:31,890
Fuck, man.

188
00:11:34,380 --> 00:11:38,960
When you don't make that play, it's
definitely disappointing.

189
00:11:40,780 --> 00:11:42,680
But I just left it a little too high.

190
00:11:46,700 --> 00:11:53,700
The Bengals right now are in deep
trouble in terms of their playoff hopes.

191
00:11:54,980 --> 00:11:58,560
They made one more play than we did, and
we've been saying that a lot this year.

192
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,800
But I promise you this, this is a
playoff team.

193
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:06,100
You guys are going to catch fire and get
in the playoffs.

194
00:12:06,340 --> 00:12:10,520
So don't doubt that for one second. We
have a one -game season next week.

195
00:12:11,060 --> 00:12:13,140
And just understand this. We're going
down fighting.

196
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:16,180
I'm going for two 100 out of 100 times.

197
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:18,400
So don't doubt that for one second.

198
00:12:18,680 --> 00:12:20,240
We're going to come in here and win the
game.

199
00:12:20,560 --> 00:12:21,720
We're not leaving it for chance.

200
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:23,700
Okay? I believe in you guys.

201
00:12:24,100 --> 00:12:27,520
I believe in everybody we need. We don't
need another person to walk in this

202
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:29,440
building and help us win. We got it all
right here.

203
00:12:35,310 --> 00:12:36,310
What do you guys want?

204
00:12:37,070 --> 00:12:38,070
Do you have Cherry Coke?

205
00:12:38,950 --> 00:12:41,130
Roy Rogers or Cherry Coke? I would do
that as well, please.

206
00:12:41,570 --> 00:12:42,830
With Grenadine?

207
00:12:43,250 --> 00:12:45,130
Grenadine. Please, that's a Roy Rogers.
Please and thank you.

208
00:12:45,350 --> 00:12:46,350
Absolutely.

209
00:12:46,590 --> 00:12:52,010
Just water for me, but if it was the off
-season, I would definitely join them

210
00:12:52,010 --> 00:12:54,950
in having a Roy Rogers. It's my favorite
beverage, the Roy Rogers. It's the best

211
00:12:54,950 --> 00:12:56,790
beverage there is. We drink it for him.
Yeah.

212
00:12:57,070 --> 00:13:01,370
My brother and two high school friends,
every single year, one weekend a year

213
00:13:01,370 --> 00:13:03,490
for a home game, the three of them come
to visit.

214
00:13:05,230 --> 00:13:08,490
Eric started it off with the t -shirts,
Crushing the Capitol t -shirts.

215
00:13:08,810 --> 00:13:09,810
Do we still have those?

216
00:13:10,150 --> 00:13:12,870
I still have mine. The originals? I
don't think I do.

217
00:13:13,090 --> 00:13:14,090
I probably have mine somewhere.

218
00:13:14,270 --> 00:13:17,430
You never have to tell Kirk to work
harder or to focus.

219
00:13:17,870 --> 00:13:22,450
I think at times you can help him give
himself permission to have fun.

220
00:13:22,850 --> 00:13:26,390
Crushing the Capitol started Kirk's
rookie year. At that time, Kirk was

221
00:13:26,390 --> 00:13:29,570
single, living with a teammate, just
grinding on football.

222
00:13:29,810 --> 00:13:33,210
So my thought was, man, I'd love to get
some friends up to the game.

223
00:13:33,680 --> 00:13:36,300
and just help him to have a little fun,
kind of chill out a little bit.

224
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:39,480
We came up with the moniker Crushing the
Capitol because we were going to the

225
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:43,020
nation's capital, and the goal was just
to show up and help Kirk have fun.

226
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,320
We get to the game. Three of us are up
in the nosebleeds.

227
00:13:48,300 --> 00:13:49,500
Kirk hasn't played the whole game.

228
00:13:49,740 --> 00:13:51,300
RG3 had been having an amazing season.

229
00:13:51,740 --> 00:13:53,980
And then all of a sudden, Robert goes
down.

230
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,040
Robert comes off very slowly.

231
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:58,460
Kirk Cousins, number 12, has got his
helmet on.

232
00:13:58,740 --> 00:14:01,280
And all of a sudden, we're looking at
the sidelines, and I think one of these

233
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:03,080
guys pointed out, like, hey, Kirk's
warming up.

234
00:14:03,500 --> 00:14:08,100
36 seconds left. Not an easy position at
all for Kirk Cousins who comes in cold

235
00:14:08,100 --> 00:14:09,100
off the bench.

236
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:11,520
36 seconds to play.

237
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:13,480
Kirk takes the snap.

238
00:14:13,700 --> 00:14:16,740
Flushed out to the right. Goes end zone.
Man is there. Touchdown!

239
00:14:17,700 --> 00:14:21,520
And then Coach Shanahan called a QB draw
on the two -point conversion.

240
00:14:21,940 --> 00:14:23,040
Kirk Cousins gets in!

241
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:26,620
We're up there just losing our minds.
Like, what is going on?

242
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:31,000
What a performance by Kirk Cousins.

243
00:14:34,380 --> 00:14:37,680
There was something special to that
weekend, and thankfully we've been able

244
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:39,100
do it now 13 years in a row.

245
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,020
It's pretty crazy how every year was
like something weird.

246
00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:45,520
Oh, the big one is Tampa, do you like
that?

247
00:14:46,500 --> 00:14:50,840
Biggest Redskins comeback after trailing
20 points or more.

248
00:14:52,100 --> 00:14:58,360
I remember we win the game, I'm walking
off the field, so you were like within

249
00:14:58,360 --> 00:14:59,960
10 rows of where I'm walking.

250
00:15:00,570 --> 00:15:02,170
But you're not that close. Correct.

251
00:15:02,370 --> 00:15:05,350
And the attendant was basically saying
you can't get any closer. And you

252
00:15:05,350 --> 00:15:08,630
basically just bogart the guy. I jump
over like four rows.

253
00:15:08,950 --> 00:15:11,450
I was just screaming at you. I was like,
yeah!

254
00:15:12,270 --> 00:15:16,090
And then you dap me up in the front row.
And then that dap up got him to cover

255
00:15:16,090 --> 00:15:17,090
the Washington Post.

256
00:15:17,770 --> 00:15:18,770
You like that?

257
00:15:18,910 --> 00:15:19,910
You like that?

258
00:15:21,230 --> 00:15:23,670
The Denver comeback a couple years ago.

259
00:15:24,460 --> 00:15:27,260
Was those down here and some other guys
too? Yeah, they just went off.

260
00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:28,800
Be yourself today, buddy.

261
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:34,780
All right, for sure. Being down three
scores to Denver at halftime and then

262
00:15:34,780 --> 00:15:35,800
coming back and winning the game.

263
00:15:36,540 --> 00:15:37,540
Touchdown!

264
00:15:38,620 --> 00:15:42,900
And the Minnesota Vikings have beaten
the Denver Broncos!

265
00:15:44,340 --> 00:15:49,600
Teams were 0 -99 when trailing by 20 or
more at halftime. Now 1 -99.

266
00:15:49,820 --> 00:15:50,820
1 -100.

267
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:55,940
Dude. The whole point was like, Just to
make it fun for you. Like you were kind

268
00:15:55,940 --> 00:16:01,120
of out on just grinding. I don't
remember themes until year four when you

269
00:16:01,220 --> 00:16:05,040
hey, guys, Kirk has been the backup all
these years. Now he's actually playing,

270
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:09,320
so it's business time. I met you guys at
the restaurant late. We were waiting

271
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:10,320
for you. Late.

272
00:16:11,220 --> 00:16:14,180
And you guys were all in basically coat
and tie.

273
00:16:14,500 --> 00:16:16,160
Correct. Had like a chili.

274
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:18,500
That was year five. Coach was year five.

275
00:16:18,700 --> 00:16:20,080
They all dressed like coaches.

276
00:16:21,530 --> 00:16:24,830
You guys did the Mighty Ducks Halloween
party that Friday night. That was fun.

277
00:16:24,970 --> 00:16:28,170
As you can imagine, as the years have
gone on, they've started to run out of

278
00:16:28,170 --> 00:16:31,590
themes. I don't think they expected me
to play for 13 years, so I wasn't sure

279
00:16:31,590 --> 00:16:32,870
what this year's was going to be.

280
00:16:33,430 --> 00:16:36,350
Gentlemen, should we... To 13 years?

281
00:16:36,670 --> 00:16:37,670
Yeah, that was tough.

282
00:16:37,950 --> 00:16:39,310
Thanks for making it possible.

283
00:16:40,130 --> 00:16:43,070
Has the bartender commented at all on
the number of Ray Rogers he's making?

284
00:16:43,370 --> 00:16:45,250
No. Homer. We need more.

285
00:16:50,990 --> 00:16:51,990
All right, here we go.

286
00:16:57,970 --> 00:16:58,970
Ow.

287
00:16:59,490 --> 00:17:00,490
Hurts a little.

288
00:17:01,630 --> 00:17:03,850
It happened on, what was that, the first
or second drive?

289
00:17:06,450 --> 00:17:07,450
Titans bring pressure.

290
00:17:09,890 --> 00:17:10,890
He's going to go down.

291
00:17:15,490 --> 00:17:18,109
I knew when I did it, I was like, oh,
it's going to hurt for a few weeks.

292
00:17:18,650 --> 00:17:22,450
This was the most now worrisome ankle in
the city of Detroit.

293
00:17:23,589 --> 00:17:25,410
How long does this take? 30 seconds.
Okay, go ahead.

294
00:17:25,690 --> 00:17:32,690
It was an ankle roll,

295
00:17:32,830 --> 00:17:35,530
but something we did look at. We did
have it scanned, x -rayed.

296
00:17:37,290 --> 00:17:41,470
It was pretty painful.

297
00:17:41,710 --> 00:17:43,610
Nothing that I can't play through. I was
good to go.

298
00:17:45,830 --> 00:17:48,270
Hey, let's go. Let's be great today,
boys. Let's be great. Another chance to

299
00:17:48,270 --> 00:17:51,710
make another fucking big statement
tonight, okay? Have some fun. Let it all

300
00:17:51,710 --> 00:17:52,709
out. One, two, three.

301
00:17:52,710 --> 00:17:56,970
This Texans team is really good, but the
recipe for the Lions of late has been

302
00:17:56,970 --> 00:18:01,690
clean football. They have taken the ball
away. They have not turned the ball

303
00:18:01,690 --> 00:18:04,070
over. You continue that, that's a
winning recipe.

304
00:18:04,290 --> 00:18:05,290
Let's go now.

305
00:18:05,490 --> 00:18:06,490
Let's go now.

306
00:18:07,170 --> 00:18:10,830
Goff's got it back to throw. Does right
side. Knocked up in the air. And it is

307
00:18:10,830 --> 00:18:13,730
intercepted by Houston at the 36 -yard
line.

308
00:18:14,700 --> 00:18:17,320
You're going to do a kick. That's the
one to make, man. I mean, it's a hell of

309
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:18,320
play by that kid. I know.

310
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:19,779
It happens.

311
00:18:19,780 --> 00:18:20,780
Oh, good, dude. About that.

312
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:22,240
180. What's that?

313
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:26,080
It's all play action. Big steps in the
pocket. He can chase now. He looks.

314
00:18:26,140 --> 00:18:28,500
Throws. That ball is knocked up in the
air. It's picked off.

315
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:31,700
Two interceptions of deflection.

316
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:34,740
Keep fighting.

317
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:36,200
Keep fighting.

318
00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:40,180
Two seconds to go in the half. The Lions
55 yards for the end zone.

319
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:44,340
Stepping up, rolling to his left, throws
deep downfield.

320
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:48,620
It is intercepted by Houston.

321
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:54,200
We have not seen the Lions get work like
this in a game this year, but right now

322
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:55,480
it is all Houston.

323
00:18:57,460 --> 00:19:01,260
Knew I had to stick in there. You know,
I felt like I was playing fine. I just

324
00:19:01,260 --> 00:19:04,860
was getting a bit unlucky and putting
the ball in a couple situations I maybe

325
00:19:04,860 --> 00:19:05,860
wouldn't have liked to, but.

326
00:19:06,090 --> 00:19:09,410
I've had a lot of plays go my way, and
I've had a lot of plays not go my way,

327
00:19:09,470 --> 00:19:11,790
and you can just kind of chalk it up to
that and move on.

328
00:19:13,450 --> 00:19:14,450
I'm great.

329
00:19:15,110 --> 00:19:16,670
It's more of a mental battle than
anything.

330
00:19:16,970 --> 00:19:17,849
Yes, it is.

331
00:19:17,850 --> 00:19:19,150
It's battling your abs out.

332
00:19:19,590 --> 00:19:22,290
Hey, I'm going to keep ripping this
thing now, okay? Let's go, fellas.

333
00:19:23,030 --> 00:19:24,030
180!

334
00:19:24,110 --> 00:19:27,450
There's the snap to Jerry. Sets in the
pocket, wants to throw. Looks, looks,

335
00:19:27,450 --> 00:19:28,450
blows deep downfield.

336
00:19:30,890 --> 00:19:31,890
That is what's up.

337
00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:37,300
Just up for grabs that time, and Bullock
ran right under it.

338
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:41,760
Jared Goff came into this game with four
interceptions. He has four tonight.

339
00:19:42,380 --> 00:19:46,340
Like, I've never experienced anything
like this.

340
00:19:55,900 --> 00:20:00,080
There's the shotgun snap to Goff. He's
back, and look, he's got time. No!

341
00:20:02,870 --> 00:20:05,670
Intercepted by Lassiter, his second of
the night.

342
00:20:06,450 --> 00:20:11,430
Fifth interception of the night for
Jared Goff. That is a career high.

343
00:20:11,870 --> 00:20:16,210
Goff just led that time. No chance for
Laporta to catch that football.

344
00:20:16,630 --> 00:20:18,190
What the fuck, man?

345
00:20:21,810 --> 00:20:24,290
What the fuck, man?

346
00:20:26,190 --> 00:20:27,190
Fuck!

347
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,980
It's hard. It's hard to win games in
this league. And it's really hard to win

348
00:20:33,980 --> 00:20:37,560
them when your quarterback has five
interceptions. And I had to fight

349
00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:41,780
that adversity and that kind of mental
battle myself and find a way to finish

350
00:20:41,780 --> 00:20:42,339
that game.

351
00:20:42,340 --> 00:20:45,400
Hey, we've been through a lot worse than
downtown in the third quarter, all

352
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:46,299
right? Let's go.

353
00:20:46,300 --> 00:20:47,620
This thing's right in our reach. Let's
go.

354
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:52,540
In that moment, it's a bad feeling. And
at the end of the game, we knew that he

355
00:20:52,540 --> 00:20:55,360
was going to have to make some big plays
for us to win that game.

356
00:20:55,900 --> 00:20:56,980
13, Sam Z.

357
00:20:58,660 --> 00:20:59,660
Give me the walk.

358
00:21:00,250 --> 00:21:01,450
Give me the fucking wasp.

359
00:21:02,370 --> 00:21:04,750
I think I said, give me fucking wasp, is
I think what I said.

360
00:21:05,690 --> 00:21:06,690
Yep.

361
00:21:06,870 --> 00:21:08,470
Yeah, we got the wasp.

362
00:21:09,410 --> 00:21:12,770
I remember thinking that wasp would be
perfect in that situation. We were kind

363
00:21:12,770 --> 00:21:16,470
of sputtering a little bit, and I knew
it would be a big play, and Ben and I do

364
00:21:16,470 --> 00:21:17,670
see things a lot similarly.

365
00:21:17,910 --> 00:21:19,750
You know, I kind of have an idea of
what's coming next.

366
00:21:20,010 --> 00:21:23,350
Sure enough, he sent it in. No, he can't
hear me, but I'm trying to speak it

367
00:21:23,350 --> 00:21:26,170
into existence, and when your play
caller is good and you and your play

368
00:21:26,170 --> 00:21:27,870
are on the same page, typically good
things happen.

369
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:31,140
I got JMO. Someone get a thing on the
Wasp.

370
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:35,680
Wasp for us is a double move by our
tight end off of a boot action.

371
00:21:36,580 --> 00:21:40,540
Throughout the week, we had seen that
their middle safety would overplay a

372
00:21:40,540 --> 00:21:44,020
action. Sometimes when you run it with
the tight end, you're able to hide it a

373
00:21:44,020 --> 00:21:48,140
little bit better than with a receiver,
and Laporta is as athletic as a lot of

374
00:21:48,140 --> 00:21:50,100
receivers, so we feel pretty good about
him running that route.

375
00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:53,760
It was one of those games where I felt
like, you know, kind of nothing could go

376
00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:57,380
our way. Nothing was certainly going my
way. And I had a pretty good feeling

377
00:21:57,380 --> 00:21:58,380
that one was going to work.

378
00:21:59,380 --> 00:22:04,360
This is almost turning into a gotta have
it drive.

379
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:06,680
We need to get some momentum back on our
side.

380
00:22:19,290 --> 00:22:20,950
The tight end inside the five.

381
00:22:21,590 --> 00:22:26,350
Bursting goal. They protect it. They're
going to bootleg to the outside, back

382
00:22:26,350 --> 00:22:29,470
across the field. Big -time play here to
get the Lions going.

383
00:22:30,890 --> 00:22:35,830
Lady with it. Jared takes, turns, throws
right side. Got a complete almond rock.

384
00:22:36,270 --> 00:22:37,730
Touchdown Detroit Lions.

385
00:22:38,030 --> 00:22:39,770
They are right back in this game.

386
00:22:40,450 --> 00:22:42,130
Way to go, 1 -4. Way to go, buddy.

387
00:22:42,690 --> 00:22:45,010
Fourth quarter, Jared made some huge
throws.

388
00:22:45,550 --> 00:22:46,550
He never wavered.

389
00:22:46,870 --> 00:22:49,990
He had the same mentality. He was going
to sling no matter what. In my head, I'm

390
00:22:49,990 --> 00:22:51,730
like, okay, this is it. We're about to
come back. We're going to win.

391
00:22:52,490 --> 00:22:55,330
23 -23, our score, a minute 40 to go in
the game.

392
00:22:55,870 --> 00:22:58,770
Jared's back and looking. Jared's
looking. Throw it. Got him in the rock.

393
00:22:58,770 --> 00:23:01,810
down. He's got the 40 and down to the 37
-yard line.

394
00:23:03,490 --> 00:23:07,890
The Lions can let this run down right
here and send Jake Bates out.

395
00:23:08,330 --> 00:23:10,750
From 52 yards out. Come on, Batesy.

396
00:23:11,550 --> 00:23:13,570
Can he send it through from here?

397
00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:15,820
To send the Lions home with a victory.

398
00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:17,560
He's ready.

399
00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:23,500
There's the snap. Spot. Kick away. It is
up. And it is good.

400
00:23:24,020 --> 00:23:27,760
He got it. Oh, what a comeback by this
team.

401
00:23:28,360 --> 00:23:31,000
Good job. Hey, we're just fucking
different, buddy.

402
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:33,800
You know that? You know what I mean?
We're just fucking different.

403
00:23:34,540 --> 00:23:37,320
His ability to bounce back, overcome
adversity.

404
00:23:38,030 --> 00:23:40,970
Bad things happen, man. Put it behind
you and go on. Man, that's him.

405
00:23:41,270 --> 00:23:43,190
And I'm telling you, he's done that.

406
00:23:43,430 --> 00:23:44,950
You're talking about for three years
now.

407
00:23:45,150 --> 00:23:49,010
That's been him. In the most critical
moments, man, he's stepped up for us in

408
00:23:49,010 --> 00:23:50,010
huge way.

409
00:23:50,190 --> 00:23:56,030
If you need a defining win in what the
Lions have been the last four years,

410
00:23:56,210 --> 00:23:57,210
that's it.

411
00:23:57,530 --> 00:24:02,050
I love you, our best one. Love you, man.
Love you. Win a fight.

412
00:24:02,970 --> 00:24:06,730
That was a galvanizing moment for our
team to come together and realize that,

413
00:24:06,750 --> 00:24:10,530
hey, man, it doesn't matter, you know,
how it happens. It just matters that we

414
00:24:10,530 --> 00:24:13,450
get it done and that we're there for
each other and have each other's back.

415
00:24:13,790 --> 00:24:16,710
Hey, if that ain't a blessing, it ain't
over till it's over. That's what it is,

416
00:24:16,770 --> 00:24:18,930
boys. Win a fight all day. We're fucking
different.

417
00:24:19,130 --> 00:24:21,930
We're different than all 31 in this
league, all right? Win a fight. Win on

418
00:24:21,930 --> 00:24:22,930
three. One, two, three. Win!

419
00:24:33,399 --> 00:24:37,940
Huge bounce back game after the five
interceptions he threw last week. Four

420
00:24:37,940 --> 00:24:40,020
touchdowns and a perfect QBR.

421
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:41,600
Wow, look at that.

422
00:24:43,700 --> 00:24:44,700
See that?

423
00:24:46,220 --> 00:24:48,000
647 franchise record yards.

424
00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:51,320
What?

425
00:24:54,140 --> 00:24:55,140
What?

426
00:24:56,360 --> 00:25:02,300
winning streak at eight, their longest
streak since 1934, and they are red hot

427
00:25:02,300 --> 00:25:03,300
and rolling.

428
00:25:04,360 --> 00:25:07,240
Since I've been here in Detroit, we are
0 -3 on Thanksgiving.

429
00:25:07,660 --> 00:25:11,600
The Lions play on Thanksgiving every
year, and, you know, we want to get that

430
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:13,080
All right.

431
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:15,880
Happy Thanksgiving coming up. Yeah,
happy Thanksgiving.

432
00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:20,460
It's been a very long time since the
Lions have won on Thanksgiving. They've

433
00:25:20,460 --> 00:25:21,660
lost seven consecutive.

434
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:23,160
Happy Thanksgiving.

435
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:31,000
Finish off the dinner.

436
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:32,800
What in the world is going on?

437
00:25:36,500 --> 00:25:38,860
Happy Thanksgiving.

438
00:25:42,380 --> 00:25:45,060
I'm thankful for every one of you guys.
I'm thankful we get to do this together

439
00:25:45,060 --> 00:25:48,400
today, okay? Have fun. Enjoy it. Enjoy
the moment. Love you, boys.

440
00:25:48,780 --> 00:25:50,880
Love you especially, Sammy. One, two,
three.

441
00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:55,040
Gifts is in the backfield.

442
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:56,800
They fake it to him. They're going up
top.

443
00:26:00,460 --> 00:26:03,220
for the second time in the game has a
touchdown.

444
00:26:04,940 --> 00:26:07,820
It was a dream of mine. I was fired up
for that turkey.

445
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:09,320
How long ago was that made?

446
00:26:10,700 --> 00:26:15,240
You grow up seeing it on Thanksgiving.

447
00:26:15,460 --> 00:26:18,760
Ever since I got here to Detroit, that's
always been kind of a bucket list item

448
00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:22,640
for me was to get to eat that turkey
after the game and all the memories I

449
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:26,140
growing up of watching guys do it. You
have to take a turkey leg because that's

450
00:26:26,140 --> 00:26:26,739
the award.

451
00:26:26,740 --> 00:26:29,060
For me to be able to be the guy doing it
this year was a lot of fun.

452
00:26:53,020 --> 00:26:57,060
This is gonna be an outrageously tight
shirt.

453
00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:01,000
Cooper, do you want to go crap tap with
us?

454
00:27:01,700 --> 00:27:02,700
No.

455
00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:06,240
What? For each theme, we try to surprise
Kirk.

456
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:10,880
We thought it would be funny to find the
most outrageous of Nash's uniforms.

457
00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:16,800
I came across this video of a guy just
wearing the most ridiculous, like, 80s

458
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:17,800
fitness outfit.

459
00:27:27,370 --> 00:27:29,910
And I couldn't help but laugh. And so I
texted the video to the guys.

460
00:27:31,710 --> 00:27:34,590
And we just thought it was hilarious.

461
00:27:36,710 --> 00:27:39,550
Typically during dinner on Friday night,
we surprise Kirk.

462
00:27:40,230 --> 00:27:42,030
This is a whole different feel.

463
00:27:42,730 --> 00:27:44,550
I have no idea what he's going to think.

464
00:27:52,250 --> 00:27:53,370
You look good.

465
00:27:54,070 --> 00:27:56,170
Reach. Are you guys wearing deodorant?

466
00:27:57,160 --> 00:27:58,720
Good point. Yes. A lot.

467
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:03,820
Joey. I think it'll be good for him to
laugh.

468
00:28:08,020 --> 00:28:09,020
Yo,

469
00:28:09,620 --> 00:28:10,620
can we go through here?

470
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:28,440
Whatever the line was, I thought they
crossed it. I thought, you know, for a

471
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:32,880
of years it's been good fun, but this is
too much. Like, this becomes like, you

472
00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:33,880
know, look at me.

473
00:28:34,460 --> 00:28:38,000
Kirk's reaction to the outfits did not
surprise me at all. We don't do it

474
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:40,980
because he's supportive of it or he
loves it.

475
00:28:41,420 --> 00:28:44,740
We do it because we know deep inside he
appreciates it.

476
00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:47,320
Let's go.

477
00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:54,000
Go get them today, bro. You guys are
stupid.

478
00:28:56,169 --> 00:29:00,070
And that was all I needed to hear, to
know that we had the perfect outfit.

479
00:29:04,110 --> 00:29:05,110
Yeah,

480
00:29:05,230 --> 00:29:06,230
the outfit.

481
00:29:06,350 --> 00:29:08,090
I don't know.

482
00:29:08,870 --> 00:29:12,430
They said there was some video on the
Internet of a guy dressed like that, and

483
00:29:12,430 --> 00:29:13,430
they were going off that scene.

484
00:29:14,510 --> 00:29:15,510
It's a lot.

485
00:29:17,150 --> 00:29:18,150
It's a lot.

486
00:29:18,890 --> 00:29:19,990
I don't know what he's doing.

487
00:29:20,510 --> 00:29:23,630
But what was funny was how many
teammates...

488
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:27,420
or coaches were commenting, and how much
attention we were getting that we

489
00:29:27,420 --> 00:29:28,500
didn't expect to get.

490
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:36,520
So there are two high school teammates,
and they, the three of them, every year

491
00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:37,520
go to one game.

492
00:29:37,820 --> 00:29:40,220
They have every single year, my rookie
year all the way through.

493
00:29:41,260 --> 00:29:45,240
So they made it a thing, and they never
dressed up like that.

494
00:29:45,500 --> 00:29:50,700
Like, they would, like, kind of, but
they are absolutely bringing it today.

495
00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:58,360
Coaches, teammates, they were all into
it, and I thought, well, if everybody's

496
00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:00,180
good with it, I'm good with it, too.
Like, let's go.

497
00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:05,600
Let's see what Atlanta's got in their
bag here on first and goal with the

498
00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:06,600
9.

499
00:30:06,740 --> 00:30:13,480
His cousin's look, lobbing in some
caught touchdown, Drake London.

500
00:30:23,980 --> 00:30:25,560
They're going for it on fourth and two.

501
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:30,260
Live from Booney. Come on, 20, 15, 10,
5.

502
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:32,000
Touchdown, Atlanta.

503
00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:42,100
When you have the intense focus and
you're really enjoying it and

504
00:30:42,100 --> 00:30:45,240
there's a joy with what you do, that's
when you play your best. And it seems

505
00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:47,440
like whenever the guys come to visit, I
play great.

506
00:30:48,460 --> 00:30:49,460
Yeah.

507
00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:52,040
That was a good look. Take a picture.

508
00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:53,360
Take a picture?

509
00:30:54,580 --> 00:30:55,940
You want the glasses on, too?

510
00:31:06,660 --> 00:31:07,559
What's up?

511
00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:08,700
Snap to Cousins.

512
00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:11,440
Kurt Groves.

513
00:32:23,410 --> 00:32:26,130
I can't break through.

514
00:32:27,610 --> 00:32:29,990
There's no talking to you.

515
00:32:31,590 --> 00:32:35,090
It's so sad that you're leaving.

516
00:32:35,990 --> 00:32:39,890
It takes time to believe it.

517
00:32:40,410 --> 00:32:42,850
Sometimes you just have to think share.

518
00:32:45,050 --> 00:32:48,390
This is as good a victory meal as I've
had in a while.

519
00:32:50,430 --> 00:32:52,370
Roy Rogers always delivers.

520
00:32:54,070 --> 00:32:59,330
This was a hard -earned Roy Rogers, but
only one hitting the spot.

521
00:33:00,330 --> 00:33:02,930
Cheers, boy. 13 years, another good win.

522
00:33:03,710 --> 00:33:04,710
Here we go.

523
00:33:07,610 --> 00:33:08,610
Oh, that is tough.

524
00:33:13,730 --> 00:33:17,810
Our division's good. It's got to be the
best in football right now, and we kind

525
00:33:17,810 --> 00:33:21,190
of knew that coming into the year that
our whole division had gotten better and

526
00:33:21,190 --> 00:33:23,210
we were going to have our work cut out
for us.

527
00:33:23,850 --> 00:33:27,870
We're on a good pace, and we've got a
tough little stretch coming up here, and

528
00:33:27,870 --> 00:33:30,290
if we can keep together, it'll be fun.

529
00:33:33,290 --> 00:33:37,610
My good buddy Andrew Whitworth came out
here and was going to do the sit -down

530
00:33:37,610 --> 00:33:41,910
interview with me before the game, and
he handed me the iPad, and I kind of

531
00:33:41,910 --> 00:33:43,490
right then and there was like, oh, here
it is.

532
00:33:44,010 --> 00:33:48,230
Hey, Jared, it's me, Aaron. Your
scholarship is still supporting me in my

533
00:33:48,230 --> 00:33:51,810
year at Albion College, and it just
means so much to me.

534
00:34:04,390 --> 00:34:08,670
I just want to congratulate you on your
wedding.

535
00:34:09,090 --> 00:34:11,550
Congratulations on everything you're
doing with these toy lines.

536
00:34:11,790 --> 00:34:14,989
You're a nominee of the 2024 Watch and
Paint Man of the Year. Keep winning

537
00:34:14,989 --> 00:34:16,150
because you know I'm going to watch the
games.

538
00:34:16,590 --> 00:34:19,870
Congratulations. All the best things are
coming to you that you gave to us.

539
00:34:21,379 --> 00:34:24,179
That's awesome. Thank you. That's
awesome. It's a great way to play it.

540
00:34:24,179 --> 00:34:27,360
Congrats, bro. Very cool. Thank you. To
be nominated for the Walter Payton Man

541
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:31,600
of the Year, it's one of the highest
honors in our league, and I'm honored

542
00:34:31,600 --> 00:34:35,260
humbled to represent our team. The video
is awesome. Those kids are the best,

543
00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:37,500
and I'm thankful to work with them.

544
00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:41,460
I want to help kids. I want to help
underprivileged youth, and specifically

545
00:34:41,460 --> 00:34:42,840
in Detroit, there's a big space for
that.

546
00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:46,820
And with what we were able to sell with
this, these clothes, what you guys

547
00:34:46,820 --> 00:34:50,060
designed, we're going to be able to give
you guys four years of scholarship.

548
00:34:50,830 --> 00:34:51,830
It's very cool.

549
00:34:53,489 --> 00:34:54,489
I'm going to get emotional.

550
00:34:55,290 --> 00:34:58,490
I'm not naive to the fact that I grew up
in a different world than they grew up

551
00:34:58,490 --> 00:35:02,210
in. Seeing people wear it in the stands
is so cool, and knowing that you guys

552
00:35:02,210 --> 00:35:05,970
designed it, and you guys should be
proud, and I'm happy to be able to

553
00:35:05,970 --> 00:35:08,370
you guys with those scholarships, and,
again, you guys deserve it.

554
00:35:08,870 --> 00:35:13,490
To be able to be there for them and help
them in any way I can and to hear what

555
00:35:13,490 --> 00:35:17,010
they're truly going through and how the
small piece I'm able to do is helping

556
00:35:17,010 --> 00:35:19,510
them, and if I can help one of those
students.

557
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:21,780
It means everything, and it's a lot of
fun.

558
00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:25,480
I'll echo your students' sentiment.

559
00:35:26,100 --> 00:35:28,720
All the blessings that come to you, man,
you deserve. Thank you. Bless to

560
00:35:28,720 --> 00:35:30,940
others, man. I appreciate it. Thank you.
Thank you for the time.

561
00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:34,500
That was awesome.

562
00:35:35,740 --> 00:35:40,080
It's Packers -Lions. Packers are two
games behind Detroit for the top of the

563
00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:44,820
division. Lions fans, this is the most
important game yet. Right now, it is the

564
00:35:44,820 --> 00:35:45,960
Lions' division to lose.

565
00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:51,740
And the Detroit Lions are going to have
to prove to the entire world that even

566
00:35:51,740 --> 00:35:55,460
though their entire defensive front
seven is injured, they're going to still

567
00:35:55,460 --> 00:35:56,460
able to win games.

568
00:35:58,780 --> 00:36:00,420
We had a lot of guys down. We did.

569
00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:04,740
It was hard, and it was a challenge, but
I won't make that an excuse.

570
00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:07,800
I'm going to tell you how this is going
to go down.

571
00:36:08,940 --> 00:36:13,180
Offense, we are going to fucking put
everything on your fucking ass.

572
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:14,880
Okay?

573
00:36:15,220 --> 00:36:16,380
I'm just telling you right now.

574
00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:19,120
You got to show up.

575
00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:21,300
You got to show up in a big way.

576
00:36:23,420 --> 00:36:25,780
The way we play ball, we're fucking
going.

577
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:29,520
We're going four downs all the way up
and down this field.

578
00:36:29,860 --> 00:36:32,560
As long as it's not four fucking 20, you
understand.

579
00:36:33,220 --> 00:36:34,320
We're fucking going.

580
00:36:35,460 --> 00:36:38,960
And we will fucking just march down this
field, and it's going to be so fucking

581
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:39,960
glorious, gentlemen.

582
00:36:40,340 --> 00:36:43,240
This will be one you're never going to
forget. You know what I mean? Let's

583
00:36:43,240 --> 00:36:44,089
fucking go.

584
00:36:44,090 --> 00:36:46,350
Yes, sir. I love the competition in this
division.

585
00:36:46,670 --> 00:36:49,570
Whoever's going to come out on top here
in a couple weeks, man, you're going to

586
00:36:49,570 --> 00:36:50,570
have to earn it.

587
00:36:50,670 --> 00:36:53,290
It's crazy the amount, like, my heart.

588
00:36:53,830 --> 00:36:56,790
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Four
minutes ago, it was not beating like

589
00:36:56,790 --> 00:37:00,290
don't know how you do it. And now it's
like, like, I feel like I'm going to,

590
00:37:01,310 --> 00:37:02,370
Seven. Set.

591
00:37:03,150 --> 00:37:04,150
Third down and goal.

592
00:37:04,810 --> 00:37:05,810
180. Set.

593
00:37:06,470 --> 00:37:11,310
And he'll get stuck at the one. So it's
going to be fourth down.

594
00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:14,340
Dan came into it letting us know, like,
hey, this is going to be an

595
00:37:14,340 --> 00:37:17,900
unconventional type of game. And we
typically are pretty aggressive, but

596
00:37:17,900 --> 00:37:18,900
even a little bit more that game.

597
00:37:19,740 --> 00:37:24,140
Jared said yesterday, he was like, I
think we might go for it on every fourth

598
00:37:24,140 --> 00:37:26,060
down. And I was like, please don't.

599
00:37:27,140 --> 00:37:28,820
Fourth and goal.

600
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:30,700
I literally can't look.

601
00:37:31,420 --> 00:37:33,140
Does Goff try to sneak it?

602
00:37:33,720 --> 00:37:36,520
Come on. You got this. You got this. You
got this. You got this.

603
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:38,360
You got this. You got this. Oh, my God.

604
00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:39,840
Throw.

605
00:37:40,260 --> 00:37:41,260
Touchdown.

606
00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:42,840
To Gibbs.

607
00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:47,040
Dan Campbell rolled the dice there.

608
00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:48,680
Hey, so fucking good.

609
00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:50,620
It came up big on fourth down.

610
00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:54,660
It's just who we are. It's who Dan is.
It's what we do. And it's paid dividends

611
00:37:54,660 --> 00:37:56,800
a whole lot more often than it's hurt
us.

612
00:37:57,120 --> 00:37:59,940
Fourth and one. They line up to go for
it. 180.

613
00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:03,260
First down.

614
00:38:04,140 --> 00:38:06,580
Lions down by four. Going to go for it
here.

615
00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:08,400
Fourth and goal from the three. Set.

616
00:38:09,319 --> 00:38:11,400
Dawg has got it back, looking, throwing
middle.

617
00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:14,440
Touchdown Detroit Lions! Tim Patrick!

618
00:38:14,820 --> 00:38:17,540
And it's a big one as the Lions take the
lead back.

619
00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:20,720
Boy, this is a heck of a game. It's
going to be a heck of a finish.

620
00:38:23,780 --> 00:38:28,660
Late in those games, certainly
divisional games, you know they're going

621
00:38:28,660 --> 00:38:32,600
close and get the ball a few minutes
left in the fourth quarter, and there's

622
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:34,960
nothing you want more than a quarterback
to be able to end it with you on the

623
00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:38,660
field. So the Lions, with the game tied,
will go to work.

624
00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:42,700
We need a score, and then they'll have
time with the ball back.

625
00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:48,860
But we need to, like, try to go down and
not leave that much time for them to go

626
00:38:48,860 --> 00:38:49,860
down.

627
00:38:49,980 --> 00:38:51,480
Hey, how low can we get this?

628
00:38:51,700 --> 00:38:54,720
They'll be left with probably about 50
seconds.

629
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:56,000
50? Okay, got it.

630
00:38:56,300 --> 00:38:57,680
If we don't get a first.

631
00:38:57,940 --> 00:39:00,840
No, I'm saying they'll have, yeah, if we
don't get a first, they're going to

632
00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:03,620
have at least 50 left. But if we get it,
we'll bring it down to zero. Yeah. I

633
00:39:03,620 --> 00:39:04,620
got it, I got it, I got it.

634
00:39:11,980 --> 00:39:14,840
One more first down and we can drain it
all the way down and kick it, okay? We

635
00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:15,980
need one more first down here, okay?

636
00:39:16,340 --> 00:39:19,360
Let's go, baby. Let's go. Let's go.
Let's go. Let's go. Let's go.

637
00:39:20,420 --> 00:39:22,640
Blitz comes. Goff back. Goff looking.
Goff throwing.

638
00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:25,180
Deep down field. It is caught inside the
25.

639
00:39:25,720 --> 00:39:28,380
Very close to a first down. Does he have
it?

640
00:39:29,260 --> 00:39:30,260
Hold on. We're short.

641
00:39:30,420 --> 00:39:33,140
It's going to be third and one for the
Lions. Third down.

642
00:39:33,580 --> 00:39:35,440
Third down. They're going to need about
a half yard.

643
00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:37,120
180. We're set.

644
00:39:37,150 --> 00:39:39,850
Cole takes the snap turn, gives to Nemo
right side.

645
00:39:40,150 --> 00:39:45,210
He is hit, and he's going to come up
short. It is going to be fourth down and

646
00:39:45,210 --> 00:39:46,210
about a half yard.

647
00:39:46,570 --> 00:39:48,290
Now, this is a fascinating decision.

648
00:39:48,850 --> 00:39:52,530
He's dying to go for it, but obviously
he's got to kick this field goal.

649
00:39:53,170 --> 00:39:54,370
What do we do? Kick it?

650
00:39:54,710 --> 00:39:55,830
I'm not sure what we're going to do.

651
00:39:56,390 --> 00:39:57,089
I'm unsure.

652
00:39:57,090 --> 00:39:59,830
I know the prudent decision would be to
kick the field goal.

653
00:40:00,510 --> 00:40:04,030
go play defense for 30 seconds and
finish it off there. But I know the way

654
00:40:04,030 --> 00:40:07,150
Dan had come into the game mentally was
that we were going to be really

655
00:40:07,150 --> 00:40:08,650
aggressive. We going?

656
00:40:10,550 --> 00:40:13,930
We are under a minute. They got no
timeouts.

657
00:40:15,010 --> 00:40:16,010
We going?

658
00:40:17,650 --> 00:40:20,230
Kick the field goal. That's probably the
right thing to do.

659
00:40:22,150 --> 00:40:23,150
Hey.

660
00:40:25,490 --> 00:40:26,490
Fuck me.

661
00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:30,220
I was pissed that we were not going to
be able to finish the game with no time

662
00:40:30,220 --> 00:40:32,420
left and give them a chance to score.

663
00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:35,180
I think we do feed off each other a
little bit.

664
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:40,060
So I thought, man, we were hurting on
defense. And we just brought some guys

665
00:40:40,060 --> 00:40:45,120
off the street that were starting for
us. And to me, that's not fair to ask

666
00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:49,140
with 40 -something seconds left to go
out there against that offense.

667
00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:52,380
And I think his confidence is always
going to help me.

668
00:40:54,100 --> 00:40:55,400
Let's fucking finish this.

669
00:40:56,120 --> 00:40:57,120
You got to go, coach.

670
00:40:57,220 --> 00:40:58,220
You got to go. We're going.

671
00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:09,740
They are trying to kill this clock and
put Jake Bates in a position to go win

672
00:41:09,740 --> 00:41:12,420
it. We need a fucking half a yard, okay?
Come on.

673
00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:15,180
Come on. Let's go, boys.

674
00:41:15,820 --> 00:41:16,900
You got it. You got it.

675
00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:22,920
Fourth down.

676
00:41:23,220 --> 00:41:24,680
Jarrett up under center. 180.

677
00:41:37,750 --> 00:41:42,250
My shoe's just a size too big, and I
think one of our linemen got a little

678
00:41:42,250 --> 00:41:42,948
of it.

679
00:41:42,950 --> 00:41:47,390
Jared tripped as he came out from behind
center, handed it to Demo, just barely

680
00:41:47,390 --> 00:41:49,490
got it to him. He got the first down.

681
00:41:51,110 --> 00:41:52,890
You let that clock run now.

682
00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:55,640
Down to 30 and the Packers can't stop
it.

683
00:41:56,280 --> 00:41:57,400
Good fucking job.

684
00:41:59,720 --> 00:42:01,620
Hey, let's fucking go.

685
00:42:04,180 --> 00:42:05,180
That's that shit.

686
00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:08,320
Good fucking call.

687
00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:12,640
If that hadn't worked, our defense would
have had to get a stop and we would

688
00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:13,638
have had to beat them in overtime.

689
00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:14,960
But yeah, big balls by Dan.

690
00:42:16,300 --> 00:42:17,300
Bates is ready.

691
00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:19,200
Lions going for the win.

692
00:42:22,340 --> 00:42:26,260
Box the hole, kick away, it is up and it
is good!

693
00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:32,060
You want to talk about grit? What a
night for the Detroit Lions!

694
00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:34,000
Hey!

695
00:42:34,580 --> 00:42:35,780
Hey! Hey!

696
00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:37,920
Great fucking shot.

697
00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:40,880
4 -5 on fourth down. Amazing.

698
00:42:41,780 --> 00:42:44,580
Hey, you're balling, buddy. Keep going,
alright? We'll see you in the playoffs.

699
00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:49,340
12 -1. Still on top of the NFC.

700
00:42:49,720 --> 00:42:50,720
Fuck yeah!

701
00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:07,040
this game. You will never forget this
fucking game. We don't have to talk

702
00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:10,740
how tough we are. We don't have to talk
about how resilient we are. We fucking

703
00:43:10,740 --> 00:43:11,638
live it, man.

704
00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:12,700
We've been living it.

705
00:43:18,460 --> 00:43:24,200
Hey, like he said, this shit just don't
just fucking happen, boys. We're fucking

706
00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:26,440
different. Again, I'll say it again.
This group's fucking different.

707
00:43:32,750 --> 00:43:35,470
I always said I wanted to play long
enough that my boys would remember me

708
00:43:35,470 --> 00:43:38,610
playing. That's what you wanted. Yeah,
which we're still, I mean, we're still

709
00:43:38,610 --> 00:43:40,610
working on that. My five -year -old's
getting there.

710
00:43:41,430 --> 00:43:42,430
He's getting there.

711
00:43:43,410 --> 00:43:44,410
All right, guys.

712
00:43:44,490 --> 00:43:46,450
This play put a screen porch on my
house. Let's go.

713
00:43:48,410 --> 00:43:49,410
Plus, here you go.

714
00:43:49,650 --> 00:43:52,170
Falcons feel like they're on automatic
pilot right now, just doing really,

715
00:43:52,270 --> 00:43:53,270
really well.

716
00:43:53,830 --> 00:43:55,550
Six and three, they're winning.

717
00:44:00,470 --> 00:44:02,090
Going into week 10, we were six and
three.

718
00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:04,760
You know, we're feeling good about
ourselves. New going on the road in New

719
00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:08,040
Orleans is going to be a tough game. My
Achilles had healed well, but the ankle

720
00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:10,980
itself was still kind of getting
strength back. As long as I had the rest

721
00:44:10,980 --> 00:44:12,020
body, I felt I was good.

722
00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:19,840
Coming into New Orleans, winning five of
their last six, Kirk Cousins is a lot

723
00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:23,980
more comfortable both physically and
also just has a better understanding

724
00:44:23,980 --> 00:44:26,180
running this Jack Robinson offense.

725
00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:30,280
action out of this setup.

726
00:44:30,500 --> 00:44:32,640
Cousins got rid of it just in time.

727
00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:34,740
Mooney inside the five.

728
00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:42,260
Robinson left side and the Falcons find
the end zone.

729
00:44:58,800 --> 00:44:59,800
We got one play at a time.

730
00:45:00,240 --> 00:45:01,240
Let's go drive it.

731
00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:15,380
Just bull rushes him.

732
00:45:21,100 --> 00:45:28,040
Got hit in the second quarter.

733
00:45:28,799 --> 00:45:34,420
Took a helmet kind of right into my
shoulder, ribcage area, and immediately

734
00:45:34,420 --> 00:45:37,220
elbow lit up and I knew, you know, I had
irritated something.

735
00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:42,740
Had a shooting pain kind of right
through my, inside of my elbow.

736
00:45:44,600 --> 00:45:47,740
My elbow got absolutely rocked by a
helmet. I don't, I mean, I'm all right.

737
00:45:48,680 --> 00:45:54,680
Hey, I bruised my elbow. I bruised my
elbow pretty good, so it was going to

738
00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:55,680
me to just keep it loose.

739
00:45:57,230 --> 00:45:58,350
Play catch every now and then.

740
00:45:58,570 --> 00:45:59,590
I'm right here with you.

741
00:46:01,550 --> 00:46:03,010
Oh, man, my elbow hurt.

742
00:46:05,030 --> 00:46:06,130
Oh, goodness.

743
00:46:09,070 --> 00:46:13,750
My shoulder started to really throb, so
I knew right away, like, okay, this is a

744
00:46:13,750 --> 00:46:18,590
little more serious. Once I lost my
shoulder and my elbow, I didn't have

745
00:46:18,590 --> 00:46:24,330
more places to lean on to get the power
I needed. The clock is running. They got

746
00:46:24,330 --> 00:46:25,570
to be thinking touchdown here.

747
00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:30,200
Cousins, tight window, picked up!

748
00:46:30,940 --> 00:46:34,220
Tyron Matthews! And the ball game is
over.

749
00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:36,060
New Orleans has won.

750
00:46:38,040 --> 00:46:42,560
13 touchdowns, three interceptions the
last five games for Cousins coming in.

751
00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:44,860
Today, no touchdowns, and then that
pick.

752
00:46:48,060 --> 00:46:52,260
It's hard looking back to not view it
as, okay, things certainly turned in

753
00:46:52,260 --> 00:46:53,260
moment.

754
00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:55,880
Because, in a way, they did.
