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,

1:32.7	And he brought up the challenge on Noah Sewell's peanut punch,

1:43.2	Hawkins's knee was down, but he wasn't
1:44.9	touched. And the only thing Noah Sewell appeared to hit was the ball. But apparently by rule,
