point. If it's a Lions game, Jemir Gibbs is doing something incredible. Yes, that was the final

0:30.0

goal of his hat trick tonight. That was Dan Miller on WXYT. We're going to be hearing a lot from Dan Miller, one of the best in the

0:39.3

business, like Jemir Gibbs. He gets those three touchdowns on the ground as part of a 44 to 30

victory over the Dallas Cowboys. We were so excited, Shuki, for a great Thursday night matchup,

0:53.9

and what we got was a great win for the

0:57.4

lions where they controlled the action old school lions and by old school I mean the last

1:02.9

couple of years and really dominated this Cowboys defense defensively put them in their place

1:09.1

and knocked that Cowboys playoff chances down to the single digits.

1:13.6

Yeah. And what's crazy is, you know, I look at the numbers real quick and I'm thinking the Lions had to be close to 500 yards of offense. No, just 400 and 8. They actually got out game. Didn't look like it on the field because like you said, they controlled the game. This was, it was one of those games where you've watched the Lions recently, you wonder like, where are the Lions as we've known them over the last couple of years? And they've had absences. They haven't had Amun Rae St. Brown for a while. They don't have Sam Leporta. So it kind of makes sense why, you know, the passing game hasn't been as good as you would expect. the offensive line hasn't been at full, so much that Frank Ragnow tried to come out of retirement and then couldn't pass his physical. And yet now, tonight, they finally kind of put it all together against the defense that you would think maybe a month ago that they should have done this, but this Cowboys defense has been getting better. So it is, in fact, a statement win for the Lions because they needed to state that the rest the NFL, that they're not just going to fade into the abyss. They're not just going to let this season go away. They're going to fight all the way to the end and they got a huge victory in a big spot. Yeah, I think that's really well said. And when I was thinking about this game ahead of time, I was thinking, okay, this Cowboys team, they're kind of, they're an upstart. Literally, it's a bunch of guys on the defense that just either got healthy

2:21.1

or joined the team in the case of, you know, Quinn and Williams and Genevion Clowney or the

2:26.0

rookie, Revelle, who got picked on a little bit tonight for the Cowboys or a lot. And I thought,

okay, I know the Lions have a lot of things going against it,
