00:00Jerry, everyone is viewing Thursday night as another heavyweight fight,

00:19but the Lions have not been as invincible as they've been in past years.

00:24What are you seeing that's different about this year's Lions team?

00:27I can't get that 40 points they hung over us last year out of my mind right out here at home.

00:36And that hook and lateral they did back there on that one pass play,

00:41that just was just embarrassing, really.

00:46And so I can't get that out of my mind.

00:49But listen, I give them all the respect that they've earned over the last two or three years,

00:55and they've got a great running back.

00:57And so in their quarterback, we need to pressure them.

01:01And that's all that's cliche almost.

01:04But I think they're at home.

01:07And plus, they're playing with a real urgency

01:12because they're looking at needing to get these last games to be ready for the playoffs.

01:20And that was their aspirations, not a given,

01:24but certainly they thought they were going to have that maybe better than they've had it.

01:29So I look for them to be as ever bit the challenge these last two games have been for us.
