0:00.0	What's up? Welcome in Hope Johns with you on a Wednesday edition, Wednesday morning as we record this and start to flip the page to the Detroit Lions and a tough
0:24.5	week to match up. Both teams losing in week one need a win in week two. So we'll get all,
0:31.6	save a lot of that for Friday, obviously, but there's a lot to dissect with the quarterback,

1:30.4	He was asked what he could do better.
1:32.7	And he brought up the challenge on Noah Sewell's peanut punch,
