00:01yeah christian is he in now one of the things is your safeties like when your safeties are
00:07leading your team in tackles typically that means you're tackling people downfield and it's not a
00:11great thing you would love to have defensive alignment and linebackers lead your team at
00:16tackles but is he and had 11 tackles three tfls and a pass breakup and chuck clark who got more
00:23run uh had that quarterback sack for a loss of 17 yards and forced the fumble that sealed the game
00:31so jets long way to go what a good moment for the defense and if even if it was only
00:35the last drive
00:36although they were good early in the game but um nothing has really changed in terms of my outlook
00:41for the season they're still gonna have to outscore people uh the fact that they've called about the
00:46possibility of getting joey porter jr is interesting uh according to an adam shefter report yesterday
00:53and if you get let's say i mean the best case scenario right is that they actually do pull
00:58the trigger on a trade like that get joey porter jr and get brian branch back at some percentage of
01:05what he can be it would still probably be an upgrade and you don't turn down help like that
01:12when you couldn't get it so but um we'll see if the joey porter jr thing like the steelers winning
01:19yesterday bengals with a chance to win turning it over late in the game damn it yeah that hurt
01:26because we want the steelers to be in a give up position that's right yep we give we'll play for
01:32the future they still haven't seen them play and they're what two and one yep yeah two four eight
01:37five three nine ninety seven ninety seven let's go to daryl you're on ninety seven one hello daryl
01:44hey fellas long time no hear from you don't call nobody we we don't call you
01:51i apologize daryl he should it's a joke uh yeah i'm gonna be real quick real uh uh i just
01:59want to
01:59chime in and uh um i love your show i've been working so i haven't been able to call you
02:06know
02:07but anyway uh i want to thank king for getting me out my doldrum i had a loss in the
02:14family and i
02:15haven't been laughing a lot but king king came in and said the same thing i said that one caller
02:21was
02:21all over the place i just fell out laughing well he looked up he looked up drake may's stats he
02:30did
02:30not look up who michigan lost to the previous game he was at and he didn't look up what else
02:36did he get
02:36wrong oh justin verlander getting the win he didn't look that up but yeah that was a funny call
02:42he was kind of all over the place you got me to laugh um i got a champion chump i'm
02:47gonna be greedy
02:48and take out two and two of each real quick if i can sure all right thank you uh my
02:55champ is uh
02:56the secondary for the lions you know they they stepped up i was kind of impressed especially with
03:01izzy and dude and uh other champions jv he uh i didn't think i could cry anymore i thought i
03:10was
03:10too tough a guy you were heartless you thought you thought you'd turn into a guy i thought all the
03:14tears had dropped dried up over the years and so that's that he's a champ and then the two chumps
03:20is the michigan secondary in the fourth quarter actually the second half and jd chump but
03:29well we're gonna have to talk about how many uh how many champs are allowed you know the the fact
03:33he's going through it yeah he is yeah he is for you daryl yeah sorry about the loss of your
03:37family
03:37good point gator thank you yeah thank you so much thank you um and you know what what's interesting
03:44is i think the lions secondary did some things i don't know if they did enough where i would champ
03:50them but good for you your vote counts gator would you i would not uh geno smith was 31 of
03:5637
03:56for 321 yards and three touchdowns and no picks um so no i would not champ the secondary for that
04:03but
04:03i would say this it almost feels like that last play call where chuck clark came in on the blitz
04:11sack fumble fumble recovery by jack campbell dan campbell was so pumped after the game about that
04:20play call i almost feel like that's the play call that saved kelvin shepard's careers in dc
04:26or at least extended it i mean it was they weren't getting a whole lot done uh in stopping geno
04:34smith
04:34lions had five sacks in the game by the way the lions are second in the nfl in sacks or
04:39three weeks does it
04:39feel that way i mean no no because i don't think they're getting a ton of pressure on the quarterback
04:45but they do get home it's strange they got home five times yesterday but i'm not sure how many
04:51other times they really had a ton of pressure on on geno smith uh anyway that being said i i
04:57don't
04:57think the secondary had a great game but they had a couple of great moments there were a couple of
05:01really nice passes that were defended knocked away uh and i think a previous caller mentioned it
05:06too the jets receivers came up with some amazing receptions they really did probably a handful that
05:12you're like i i didn't think they were going to come up with that play so the pressure rate right
05:16your your your pressure rate is a direct reflection of you know how many drop because quarterback sacks
05:23could be a a function of the other teams throwing a lot and so you get more opportunities more volume
05:30in terms of pass rush and you could have a a higher number of quarterback sacks so pressure rates
05:37important because it takes into account you know how many how often are you pressuring a quarterback
05:41on drop backs the lions pressure rate according to uh pro football reference is 22.1 percent
05:48which is eighth in the nfl so they are doing a decent job of of pressuring opposing quarterbacks
05:59and which can lead to turnovers and can lead to incompletions and they are yeah second in the nfl
06:05quarterback sacks which is it seems like if they don't get the sack though to give up a big play
06:10in the
06:10secondary that's the issue even if the quarterback is under some some pressure doug and and i wouldn't
06:16champ the secondary either gator they did come up with the play that sealed the game and they have
06:21their moments but the fact is the line secondary gives up the most passing yards in the entire
06:28league and the defense as a whole is giving up more points than anyone else in the entire league
06:33three weeks through the season and as far as that last play and the celebration like saving shepherd's
06:39job i don't know if it did that but they kind of celebrated like it did that you know what
06:41i mean
06:42it was like a huge exhale like yes like you made the call we made the play the game's over
06:50so you know we can wallow in what they didn't do and certainly we'll continue to take phone calls and
06:55people talk about what they didn't do in the offseason to address the defense and it's fair
07:00the truth is the defense just has to do enough to win the damn game and they you know i
07:08was just
07:08cracking up i'm like there's two minutes to go the jets have the football and here we sit can the
07:15defense get off the field can the defense close the deal and you know i i've seen teams where defense
07:23is their strength and they they played to that strength and iowa goes right down to field and scores
07:29so you know there's a defense that needed to make a play and believe michigan's defense has been
07:37great couldn't get the stop i was iowa goes right down to field and scores lions defense has not been
07:44great and they get the stop it's a moment in time it's a snapshot in time the question is can
07:50they
07:50find a way to make a play to help them win games and that's you know they they did it
07:56yesterday well
07:56and with the lions the counter that is uh i don't want to be dismissive of it but i don't
08:00want to
08:00overreact to it either right the counter to that is that the lions offense it seems like when they
08:06want to they get their act together and move it right down the field and score which is kind of
08:10what happened yesterday it was almost like jared goff's like all right enough ready let's go
08:1410 plays 12 plays whatever it takes we're just going to be methodical in getting it down
08:19field and scoring all right time for our champion jump brought to you by sarah chevrolet sterling heights
08:23my champ is the aforementioned christian isian for all the reasons we talked about um you know
08:27stepped in after going from an inactive in week one uh to make him plays for this team in week
08:32three
08:32when they needed it christian isian my champ all right so i thought about giving it to justin verlander
08:37but instead i went with aj hinch and my reasoning of course it's not because the tigers were so good
08:42this year obviously the the season ended in disappointment they didn't make the playoffs but where i'm giving
08:47it to aj hinch is because he's the one who hatched the master plan of how he was going to
08:52pull justin
08:52verlander to get his daughter genevieve to come out from the the opposing team's dugout and run out
08:59to the mound and pull her dad out of the game in the sixth inning it was perfect i mean
09:05for lack of a
09:06better word and i don't know if there is a better word it was a perfect finish to to what
09:11we saw it
09:12was really incredible uh i i loved it yes i was in tears too even you gator several times during
09:17the
09:18game i was in tears it was the whole game was was amazing from beginning to end this wasn't done
09:25i mean in the credit justin verlander because of what he did in the game we'll get into it later
09:31but
09:31it was uh i'll just suffice to say aj hinch was my champ okay um my chump is me for
09:36my jv prediction
09:38two and two-thirds four earned runs five hits two walks three strikeouts it was i did not see this
09:46coming bravo i'll own the l and it was a cool l to own that was an awesome moment my
09:53jump usc linebacker
09:54desmond stevens uh the unnecessary hit on dante moore was arguably bad enough but his celebration
10:00afterwards was absolutely sickening uh lincoln riley has decided to suspend him for the next game it's
10:06probably not enough i mean there's no place in in football to to take joy and glee in something
10:13like that and again the hit you can argue about the hit uh the the a quarterback that it's hard
10:18that it's hard i get it yep i think some people think it was a late slide look i feel
10:25bad for the for
10:26for everybody involved here i don't feel terrible for stevens although you know he's from clarkston
10:33he played at clarkston he had offers from eastern central western michigan state he committed to
10:40purdue uncommitted ended up at usc i hope i hope the kid learns from the moment you know the the
10:46shots
10:46on him on the sideline kind of laughing that wasn't a great look and i um but i also have
10:54a lot of grace
10:54for young people knowing that they don't always make the greatest decision and um that was just
11:00that was a it was a it looked like a dirty hit i think at full speed when you're playing
11:06that game
11:06i i think when you watch at a full speed it's not nearly as dirty it so my chump vote
11:12for him is
11:12really for what happened afterwards gotcha when usc suspended him 2485399797 get your champion
11:19chump votes in it's carson anderson 97.1 hey
