It’s it’s awesome it really is cool for me and um I said it last week I said you know something I’ll probably never experience again and I you know kind of experien it again today so um yeah those fans are um special near and dear to my

Heart and um mean a ton to me the support and um not just for me though but for our whole team and and yeah experiencing that is cool look man shouts out to Jarry golf Detroit Lions for figuring out sticking with each other and you see they reaping the

Benefits now jar go two playoff games 277 two touchdowns last week 287 two touchdowns this week it’s just more prevalent man like when you got people that believe in you you got people that back you when you feel confident when you feel comfortable you just play to

The best of your abilities I remember being in Cleveland and having you know I had a had one really good season but I just never felt comfortable I never feel like they really truly had my back I never felt really really truly like I was a Cleveland Brown and I get to the

New York Jets and in the span of one game like one game one Work Week man Rex Ryan like he brought me in the team brought me in like the offensive coordinator the players the training staff everybody brought me in and slowly but Surly I was able to get back to my

Confidence s that I knew from the University of Michigan that’s what you seeing with Jared G hey Jared G was a number one draft pick overall for a reason let’s start there he was a number one overall draft pick for the most part when you drafted number one overall

Everybody can’t be wrong and then he takes the guy I mean he takes the Rams to the Super Bowl and then it falls apart a little bit at the wheels he comes here he’s trying to figure out who he is they doubl down on them they triple down on them they stayed the

Courts they didn’t pay attention to what the people were saying even in the city after the first year here 313 and one or the first six games of last year they stayed with Jared G and eventually he was able to get his rhythm get his confidence the last 10 games of last

Season and this year he’s been able to build on it each week week by week by week game by game and that’s the guy you’re seeing in front of you at the podium you want to talk about having your quarterback he’s just won you two playoff games and I don’t care what you

Who they played against he outd Matt Stafford in the sense that they won the game he outo Baker Mayfield in the sense he didn’t turn the ball over they won the game how many quarterbacks are we trying every year on on these on these shows that aren’t this one they’re

Trying to give you why this quarterback is the guy why this quarterback deserves $51 million why this quarterback can get it done and they’re struggling they’re getting knocked out of the playoffs they’re getting knocked out of the first round of playoffs and getting embarrassed at home jerck off just won

You two playoff games and did it in Immaculate fashion with Ben Johnson so I don’t know what your eyes are telling you but my eyes are telling me he’s the guy so great being in the building and hear ing from almost the minute you got

To your seat Jared G Jared G jarid Goff this city has fallen in love with Jared Goff and rightfully so he has embraced us we have in turn embraced him now winning is the great Catalyst for all yeah right uh but Jared gof will be you

Got to win a Detroit lion for the rest of his life based on what he’s done in the last eight days alone yeah I would I would I mean think about you Bray you played a season and a half in New York yeah but you the team

Success that you had yeah it makes you a jet this is true you are a New York Jet and I think the the success that Jared Goff has had here makes him forever a Detroit Lion again and the the the great part about this his story is not done

Yet his story is still being written uh the Detroit Lions 2023 season is still being written and by the way can I ask the dumbest question in the world okay this is the dumbest question in the it is a total side note yeah uh and it means nothing to what we’re talking

About but I just don’t understand it why is the University of Michigan uh oh the 2023 national champions but let’s just say the Lions heaven forbid win the Super Bowl the Detroit Lions would be the 2024 Super Bowl champions the 2023 SL 2024 no but it’s Super Bowl that’s not

That’s not what the season that’s not what the shirt say yeah that’s not that’s not what when you look at the it’s not when you look at the list Super Bowl champions when you see 2024 Super Bowl champion it’ll have Lions Ravens it won’t see say

23 24 right it’ll see 20 Super Bowl 58 okay isn’t that always too isn’t that also too because that uh Super Bowls used to be like Super Bowls used to happen the same year because it won as many games so no no they were always in January uh there were a couple Super

Bowls in December yeah I might have to look it up but I think so I could be wrong I could be wrong but I think I’m right I think I’m right right hey uh while we’re here let’s do the premier pet uh Supply player of the game Tom

Maway uh I think you got to know who it is it’s the man who got his first interception in his three-year career none other than Derek Barnes Ryan uh how important is Derek Barnes to that linebacker core now he’s just one of those guys that again uh fits this city

Fits this team he’s a guy that wasn’t even sure if he was going to make the team at the start of the year and towards the end of the year just made one of the biggest plays in the history of the franchise over the last 50 years

That’s what he just did and it’s guys that just keep working just keep working just keep working get better get better get better and lo and behold you’re in a position to make a play like that and that pop in the in the stadium when he caught that ball was unlike anything

You’d ever hear did you bring me a towel home all GP I didn’t they’re all nasty you didn’t give me all GP no I didn’t you don’t need that tow you’re right it’s fine you got to appreciate people that can stay the course man and stay

The course he did you know he had a couple good games in 2021 but he also he had a couple of those games where you realize why he was going up back and forth back and forth in the lineup out of the lineup but he stayed the course

He got better Calvin Shepard helped this man get better and Derek Barnes like you said he made one of those plays I remember when the Colts finally beat the Patriots when they get Marlon Jackson one of my former teammates University of Michigan all americ got that interception and to this day PA Manning

Still calls Marlon all the time hey Marlon how you doing like like moments like that like that helped uh pton Manny get over the hope get over the hump he beat Brady got the Super Bowl and they won that Super Bowl but you get remembered forever for plays like this

And Derek Barnes is a very humble guy Purdue Big 10 guy a lot of big 10 guys on this roster but shouts out to him man and heard what he said this is how this team is he got put on the spotlight to get some credit and what did he do he

Threw the credit right back on that linebacker room and right back on Coach Shephard that’s the type of team that Dan Campbell has created here in Detroit here’s what Dan Campbell had to say about the premier Pet Supply player of the game Derek Barnes yeah man I I’m proud of I’m proud

Of Derek you know Derek you know he he’s one of our guys that you know we drafted in the first year here and you know it just he’s he was a later bloom later Bloomer guy you know it took him a little bit and uh and then he really

Came on this season um and he’s playing at a high level and you know just to see him you know one of the biggest areas he’s grown at not only just being able to um you know his level of play on defense but his you know his psyche um

Something bad happen something doesn’t quite go go the way you want it to man he’s able to bounce back in a big way and he he doesn’t get it doesn’t it doesn’t affect him uh negatively man he just he keeps going that that’s where I feel the most growth um and it’s why

He’s playing at a high level that that was a what a huge Play What a huge play by Derek Browns but what a huge job by Dan Campbell sticking with Derek BRS look when you like guys when you pause when you look at film when you look at

Scouting tape when you look at a guy you interview a guy you’re saying hey how can this guy fit my team the Detroit Lions coming out of Purdue when how can this guy I’m on R Brown my team coming out of USC they have drafted guys and

They have stayed with them they’ve given them a chance to Blossom they given them a chance to get to where they can be it doesn’t happen overnight all the time I think a lot of times us as fans and even now that I’m a former player and I’m on

The fan side of things I think we want things to happen right away you want to happen right away this guy’s got to be it right away Jameson Williams I need to see it right now Derek bars insert player here that you DFT Jack Campbell

Jack Camp well I still want to see it but at the end of the day you want to see it right away that’s why it’s up to a guy like Dan Campbell a head coach a leader of men to say we’re going to stay with this guy and we’ll figure it out

And eventually he will here you are three years later Maz and Derek Barnes makes one of the greatest plays like you said in Lions history sometimes you got to stay with a player and just keep giving them posi reinforcement congrats to Derek Barnes our Premier Pet Supply

Player of the game do not settle for less give Premier Pet Supply a call Premier pets supply.com you know one of the things about Derek Barnes too and one of the things about Dan Campbell brilin um and as a former player I’m sure you can appreciate this is guys

Like dere Derek Barnes are able to be ready because Dan Campbell and every coach on that roster and every person in that player Personal Department is honest with each other yeah hey this is where we see this is where we see you this is what you could do for us um this

Is where you could play this is what we like about you this is what we need you to work on these guys this coaching staff treats these players like men and uh I think that goes a long way in these guys being ready every step of the way

As well whether you’re Craig Reynolds whether you’re Derek Barnes whether you’re Brock Wright or whether you’re Zack hers uh that’s coming in and probably trying to get ready for the Super Bowl in three weeks transparency is all the players ask for like you ask when a guy says what’s the difference

Between a player coach what is a player coach player’s coach is one that can be transparent a player’s coach is one that can tell you one thing and it is that one thing when it’s behind your back when it’s the next guy he talks to about

You or it’s the GM about you it’s the same thing or something close played with a lot of coaches in my day and a lot of them just can’t tell the truth they can’t they they they call themselves trying to spare you or they can’t give you all the information as it

Came down from the GM or as it came from somewhere else they don’t have that problem in Detroit and when you don’t have that problem you got guys at a Lobby for you like you said you tell Dereck Bryan sayy you’re just not here right now we want to keep you on the

Team we want you to still get better at some things but right now we see you as linebacker three or linebacker four all right you’re honest with me you didn’t string me along like legitimately I had Pete Carrol tell me in one sense when I got to the Seattle Seahawks and training

Camp 2012 he said yeah you’re going to come here you going to challenge for start it’s probably going to be you and uh Sydney rice well when I got there after about you know a week like I’m like taking fourth reps and fifth reps and sixth reps before the season starts

I start the opening game against Arizona Cardinals I’m like it’s but you got to stay the course and the other side did you give derck bar attitude attitude you like I at the end of day I know who I am and this is why I was coming to Derrick

Barnes at the end of the day he believed himself he knew who he was at Purdue he knew why he was drafted here or he knew why he was picked up here to the Detroit Lions he stayed the course that play he made wasn’t an easy play like everybody

Just acting like it’s some linebacker oh my God that was incredibly everybody acting like some some B hting right in the Bread Basket like one he read the play two made a hell of a catch we saw Mike Evans drop three three passes in that game that were way easier than that

And he dropped him he still had 147 but he dropped three easy passes dere Bryan made a hell of a play he saw the play and you can tell how he made that play he’s been watching film he knew that play was coming that was a hell of a job

By him he trusted in himself did we wind up playing uh Derek Barnes speaking about his interception we do that yet we haven’t done that yet cuz I was on the phone trying to get a hammer on no talking about Dan Campbell talking about we got Derek Barnes himself talking

About uh that exact play yeah so coach called a great play executing all week he was packed them seams packed them seams man this is crazy first in NFL interception man was wild all you got to do is be coachable man and do with ag and sheer them tell

You to do and this the result n but one Pride man Detroit y’all deserve this it’s amazing God’s good ah it’s so great there’s no doubt about it and so happy for guys like Derek Barnes and um he is Premier Pet Supply player of the Game
