00:00A couple of weird things about JMO. You mentioned a blocking. Dan Campbell gave him a game ball
00:04last night because of that. Also, Dan Campbell didn't realize that golf was perfect and he
00:10admitted that in the press conference because I wish I had known that. But JMO is third
00:16in the NFL in yards per catch behind A.J. Brown who's only caught five passes, Alec
00:22Pierce who's got 10 for a 23-yard average. JMO is next with 13 receptions on the year
00:27for a 22.2-yard average. He's got more receiving yards at this point than Ahmad Arai St. Brown.
00:34So it's all put in perspective. Nobody's complaining. We're all loving what JMO's doing and he's
00:40starting to realize that potential. We know. Get the ball in his hands, he's electric.
00:44His feet just carry him to places that nobody can go. And there's plenty of footballs to
00:49go around. They only had 19 passes last night and one of them came from a wide receiver.
00:55So it's, it's kind of crazy how this offense can look with so few plays. I mean, it's,
01:03it's less than 40, less than 50 plays that they actually ran without the penalties last
01:07night and they had over 400 yards in offense.
01:10Well, he was high stepping at the 30-yard line, I believe he was gone. He was, I mean,
01:19talk about in the clear. Soon as he caught it going across the middle, he gone. You can't
01:24catch him. It was a really well-designed play. It was actually a perfect pass to kind
01:30of dropped in.
01:31Oh, it was a perfect pass because Witherspoon who had St. Brown on the route had to come
01:36off as man, but the way golf through it, there was no time. And that's what JMO did at Alabama.
01:41Like Ketamine stride. Doesn't matter if you don't have, if you don't have the right angle
01:45and sometimes even if you did have the right angle, JMO was so fast, he just ran away from
01:49people. When he caught that ball, he already knew no one's catching me. I, the, the angle
01:54you're at, the word, the back is turned towards me. I'm hitting stride. See you later.
01:59Jared Goff did not throw a bad pass last night. Those passes were all iron target. I think
02:06damn near all of them in stride.
02:09When he was spun out of the, when he got spun out, like he was hitting the backfield and
02:13he did the spinorama and then delivered, I think it was the JMO for 10 yards. Yeah. I
02:17mean, that was Jerry Goff kind of at his best, even under pressure, even, you know, he's
02:23like as much as, you know, Jared's strength is not running away from stuff. I feel like
02:30they're utilizing whatever skill he has. I feel like they've decided we're going to tap
02:33into whatever that is. And so they got him on the bootleg to seal the deal in Arizona
02:39last night. They had him out running a route. He got targeted once. It made one catch. Yeah.
02:45When he, to start the game on the first drive, it looked, I was a little nervous because
02:51the first pass he throws, he's got that like little rollout and they had three options
02:57of players he could throw to at various stages downfield, all on the same side. And he checked
03:02down to the, to the, to the shortest one. And the receiver caught the ball for like
03:06two or three yards to kind of start the game. I'm like, oh, the other guy behind him is
03:10wide open too. And that would have been, you know, more positive would have been a seven
03:14or eight yard gain, maybe even more if he, if he can turn up field, but wasn't sure things
03:19are going to go based on the start of a three and out for the lions.
03:23Little did we know that that was just going to be one of a couple of drives on the night
03:27where the lion's offense was going to be stymied. They were, they were just impressive last
03:31night. Just for the record too. I was fully well aware of Jared golf going 18 for 18.
03:38When I sat down, I print up the game book and I sit down and I have the things I go
03:41look at. I look at snap counts. I look at QB hits. I look at yards per play, look at
03:46yards per rush. Like I'm going to have as I'm going through post game. And I also look
03:50at targets and receptions. And, and so I get to the lions wide receivers. I'm like, all
03:55right. Ooh, Amon Roth, six targets, six receptions, Laporta, four targets for reception. I'm like,
04:00oh yeah, of course.
04:03He was perfect to Tim Patrick as well. I mean, I was like, I'm going through like comparing
04:09like their success rate on pass. Cause this is what I do. And it's one of my post game
04:14routine. So I get the game book and I started going through it and I'm like, oh, that's
04:17good. That's good. Oh, of course. You dummy. The lines as a whole, didn't miss a pass.
04:22I know right. St. Brown one for one. Jared golf went 18 for 18. Gino Smith had 18 incompletions.
04:31Lions approved a three and one Gino Smith is good. Don't get me wrong. Gino Smith is
04:34good in Seattle. Hey, I thought that the lion's defense do a better job. And that's why I
04:40predicted the lines to roll last night. And I don't care whether they did or they didn't.
04:42I'm glad they won. They won by a margin that, that would assume that they won comfortably,
04:47but it wasn't a game where it was particularly went the way I expected. Nonetheless, you
04:51get a win over an undefeated team. You hold a tie breaker over an undefeated team. And
04:56uh, that, that of course is a good thing going into the bi-week before they got back to back
05:01row games at Dallas and at now suddenly at Minnesota looms large.
