00:00Here is Dan Campbell on having to deal with Daniels on Saturday night.
00:04He is dangerous. He's dangerous.
00:08He poses a major threat.
00:11He does not play the position like a rookie quarterback.
00:15He's composed.
00:18He understands how to progress. He sees the field well.
00:22He can buy time with his legs. He's a dangerous runner.
00:28He's smart. He's smart. You can tell.
00:31He understands how to run that offense, what they're asking him to do.
00:34And then he's got weapons. He's got weapons around him.
00:37His receiver is pretty dang good. 17 is a hell of a player.
00:41He's got a good back. He's got more than one receiver.
00:44Urch is a tight end. I mean, they've got weapons.
00:47The whole line plays hard.
00:50But he's a difference maker.
00:53Listen, I'll say this much for him.
00:56Without a doubt, he's a badass.
00:59And I think he's got an edge that he's played in this game against Tampa on Sunday night.
01:05And that he's going to play again against Detroit right off of that.
01:09I think there's somewhat of an advantage for the Chiefs and Lions having to be given that extra time to get healthy.
01:18But I think there's a disadvantage in not playing.
01:21I don't buy. Look at the college football playoff.
01:24All those teams with buys lost.
01:27They all lost. They didn't play that first game.
01:32And then they got beat.
01:34And all I know is that I think the Lions are at that small disadvantage.
01:40I think Jaden Daniels has an edge that he's already played in a huge game and succeeded triumphantly.
01:47And now gets to go play the best team in the NFC for sure.
01:52And maybe the best team in the NFL.
01:54People would argue that because the Chiefs went 15-2.
01:58But the Chiefs won every game by one score.
02:02It's like they didn't care about anything else. Just get us the dub and get us out of here.
02:05The Lions actually kick people's asses.
02:08The Chiefs don't kick anyone's ass.
02:10So some people would say the Lions are the best team in the NFL.
02:13But I'm not that stupid.
02:15When you're a dynasty and all you do is win Super Bowls, that's all that matters.
02:19The Lions, they talk big, but they don't win anything.
02:23They were up 24 points in the NFC title game and they lost.
02:27They're the biggest chokers I've seen, the Falcons and them, that I've ever seen in my life.
02:32You're up 24 in a title game and you lose.
02:35You're a piker.
02:37I don't care what anybody says.
02:39Your head coach blew it with all of his crappy decisions.
02:42Now, I got all my friends in Detroit saying they're going to the Super Bowl.
02:46And I said, yeah, I'll probably see them down in New Orleans
02:49when sports grid's there setting the standard as usual at media row.
02:53But I think that they're at a disadvantage a little bit this week
02:57that Jayden Daniels is coming in there piping hot.
03:03He is. And look, this is a big spot for Daniels.
03:07Take a look around.
03:08I mean, there's eight teams left.
03:10Look at these other quarterbacks that are left.
03:12You know, Goff, Hurts, Stafford, Allen, Mahomes, Lamar Jackson.
03:18Like, this is a big stage for a rookie quarterback that he's going to be on on Saturday night.
03:25I hope it's a fun game because we haven't had many of them here in the playoffs so far.
03:30And I do think you're right.
03:32There could be a little initial out of the gate.
03:35And that's what I was kind of trying to say before with the Chiefs.
03:37Like, they're just going to show up after not playing for a month and blow this team out?
03:41Maybe.
03:43But I think the same with the Lions.
03:45I think it's going to take a little while to get some footing,
03:47especially after Washington just played so well on Sunday night against Tampa.
03:51This is 9 1⁄2 right now on a Tuesday.
03:55Nine and a hook and 55 1⁄2.
03:59I mean, that is a big total for a playoff game
04:02considering five out of six playoff games have been under so far.
04:05Yeah, I'm not going over.
04:07And I also think it's too many points for Jayden Daniels.
04:11You can't give Jayden Daniels 9 1⁄2 points.
04:13I bet they score first.
