00:00 On Saturday night, the Detroit Lions got back in the win column by defeating the Denver Broncos.
00:05 Here today to analyze the game and give some takeaways is SIO Lions' John Macrin.
00:10 John, give me your thoughts and analysis on the game and how the Lions looked against the Denver Broncos.
00:15 Yeah, Cameron, real interesting. A complete game for the Detroit Lions.
00:19 After playing the Bears and not playing to the best abilities, I think the Detroit Lions really showed out in front of the home crowd.
00:27 Really, Cameron, a team that executes well in prime time.
00:31 Jared Goff throwing five touchdown passes. You saw the offense get rolling.
00:36 And enough can't be said about the play of rookie tight end Sam Laporta.
00:41 A young rookie that just comes in and is a security blanket for Jared Goff.
00:46 Whenever the team needs a spark offensively, you know you can trust Sam Laporta.
00:50 Another thing that really caught the attention of a lot of Lions supporters is Jamison Williams was utilized a lot more, was targeted in the offense.
00:59 Amon Ross St. Brown clearly not having his two best games comes back and rebounds against the Broncos.
01:06 In a game that was important for Dan Campbell going up against Sean Payton, it was a convincing victory in front of the home crowd.
01:14 Early on, people were a little bit nervous with the Lions offensively as they didn't get off to the hottest starts.
01:19 But once they got rolling in front of the home crowd, boy Cameron, when you're able to score more than 40 points and take it to an opponent that was playing well,
01:28 the Broncos were playing a decent brand of football.
01:32 Defensively, the Lions got after it. Aaron Glenn dialed up a lot of blitzes and the Detroit Lions defense were able to get home and play really what I thought was a clean game defensively.
01:43 When the Lions are able to force a turnover on defense, it always bodes well for the team.
01:49 So they move on, they secure their 10th victory of the season, and a lot of their goals that they established early in the season are right there in front of them.
01:59 John, couldn't have said it any better myself. Thanks for all the time.
