Sewell's effort represents what did and will help Lions win. If all of our players do their job and look for extra they can do, we will be a playoff team. For example, I watched Sewell after one game last year. He constantly gives extra effort. On one play, a draw run, he engaged the Defensive end, and locked him up. Then a safety came on a delayed run blitz from the outside. Sewell, while shutting down the DE, took one hand and gave that safety a shove in the shoulder as he ran by, knocking him off balance on his run to the backfield. That shove literally gave Goff that half second more to hand the ball to Swift on a draw run. But then Sewell released his guy, the DE, since he was already shut out of the play, got out to the 2nd level, and got out in front of Swift as a moving blocker, which turned it in to a big play. Sewell literally made 3 actions against 3 different players, all having an effect, that enabled a big chunk run. So again, if every player were to give THAT kind of effort, as often as possible, we will be a force steamrolling in to the playoffs.
Always glad to see some respect put on our o-line, and you didn't even talk about how great Ragnow is, plus they're all actually friends. Chemistry +100
Worth noting the IOL was decimated by injuries last year. Credit to Sewell and Decker for being able to stabilize and anchor that line. We talk about Lions O-Line as elite but at one point we lost our 3 starting IOL and the primary backup, we were signing guys off waivers and the practice squad to start for us.
Not only is Penei an Elite RT, that one-handed catch for a game winning 1st down vs. the Vikings was LEGIT. The formation of the play and the motion he ran was Brilliant. Look for OC Ben Johnson to scheme him into the offense more this upcoming season in the pass game and run game.
good video. love how you broke dn the plays. As a prodigious lions and NFL fan i find it intriguing to see the intricacies of a play. offensive lineman don't get nearly the credit they deserve and all last year are line played lights out. I fully expect the offense to continue this season and your video put me back on track and I will continue to give them credit and hopefully I can give it to our defensive line
@@chevy4x466 I like your mindset. I fully believe they can win the NFC this year. Can't wait for the championship game inside of Ford field come January
The draft seemed odd this year. First two picks were really confusing. Then I remembered Holmes has been a wizard since arriving in Detroit with picks like Sewell, St. Brown, Rodriguez, Joseph, the list goes on. He's nailed nearly every pick he's made.
Tends to happen with generational-tagged players who disappoint somewhat in their rookie year, or are overshadowed by a peer from the same class. Happened with Chase Young (disappointed) and Sewell (Slater) Sewell is legit
@@raystonge154 He wasn't overshadowed and is not. Slater was better rookie season. Both Franchise Tackles and will both likely be ELITE this season. Sewell already 2nd Best RT in league since Wirfs is moving to LT this season.
Slater was the more NFL ready player coming out the Draft but Sewell was only 20 years old when he got drafted and had the higher ceiling. Look at them in 5 years and see who the better player is.
Again not saying he's not a top 3 tackle. But again, he plays for the Lions, people will discredit him and pretend he's not as good simply due to that fact. To this day people try to discredit Barry fucking Sanders AND Calvin Johnson simply because they played for the Lions. Always have excuses and say yea, but its Detroit. Stafford just won a ring 2 years ago and I see on reddit and Facebook all the time still saying "Stat Padford" and saying Kupp and Donald carried him..... Penei could end up a hall of famer and he'd still be overshadowed due to haters hating on the Lions. Fuck em. We know who we are. Detroit vs Everybody, people will discredit anyone in Honolulu Blue until the end of time
1:42 in. Watching Darius Slay be the ONLY reason D’andre Swift didn’t score a touchdown, and now knowing Swift is going to play there too, hurts on so many levels. At least Matt Patrica is going there too.
Just wish we ran some more screens his way. Dude is a monster out in space. Him killing that GB DB on the hook and ladder at the end of the year will always be a lasting memory for me.
@@joshlewis575 He’s a generational run blocker and screen blocker. It feels strange to say a tackle is “generational”, normally that’s reserved for skill position guys, but he is. He’s just bigger, stronger and more agile than almost every tackle in the league and he’s 22 years old
Hey Detroit Fan base.... don't take the Lions O. Line for granted! They truly are remarkable. And, our 7th round pick at 152 overall Colby Sorsdal will no slouch either! On draft night you couldn't find much on Colby, he's 6'6" and at 305lbs he'll be no easy take. He's out of Williams & Mary College, he blocks like a freight train coming at you. He needs to develop his technique to handle NFL D.Linemen but the Coaching Staff at Detroit will be all over that.
You got that right.... and with the pickup of Gibbs and Montgomery, look out! It's a shame about Jamo suspension but the last pick of the Draft round 7, 219 overall WR Antoine Green out of N.C. is a reel pickup, he should have went much earlier. He'll need a bit to get up to speed for the NFL but he'll do great.
@@thesecond1a : You are right, but with the Free Agent pick ups and the Draft we've turned this Defense right around. Looking forward to seeing this unit active and on the field.
On the Rep against Reddick I think Reddick is playing the decoy in order to draw Penei outside. this allowed more space for the Safety and LB blitz through the C gap. The 3T also works inside for this as well.*
Agreed Sewell should have picked up one of the two blitzers and rb needed to get the other. Reddick was further outside and should have only got a punch if he blitzed as well
I don’t think that was an error by Hassan Reddick. He bent way outside to draw Sewell outside so the blitzing CJGJ would have a 1 on 1 vs the blocking RB and it worked leading to a bad throw by Goff
Sewell over Parsons and even slater was a another brad Holmes fumble just like Hutchinson over sauce jamo instead of Watson and Pickens iffy and Levi brad so overrated
i disagree. you build a team in the trenches and our line is top 10 w/PS. Our defense is much improved w/hutch over sauce and now I believe our secondary will be top 10 with the additions. i'm no BH sycophant but those 2 picks were needed

Well, that definitely makes alotta sense--you totally remind me of Ben Stiller's "Simple Jack."

He's a cornerstone player for the Lions. I think St. Brown and Hutch are, too. These are guys you never let go.

Ragnow is ridiculously good. He dominated last year during the thanksgiving game

Who stopped talking about Sewell ?? Most of us lions fans know that the 7th overall pick that year was the start of the culture change in detroit.
Thanks for talking about my Lions!
I hope he never leaves Detroit.
They will pay him whatever he wants. When he extends, expect a record lineman deal
He will most definitely retire here. No way u let a guy like him leave your franchise. No matter the price he will be resigned consistently here.

Best oline in the business
A lot of it is the coach, Hank Fraley. Pittsburgh tried to poach him few years back. The line are "Frank's Tanks"
If peni was on 9ers cowboys etc they would be making him the greatest alive its ok we coming Detroit VS EVERYBODY!!! BEST TACKLE IN FOOTBALL PERNOD

Lions are going to have a top 3 offense and a top 15 defense
he’s gonna be the GOAT
That first play is a reason why Gibbs was selected. That should have been housed.
To be fair Slay is older but he was a 4.3-ish guy. not a lot of ppl outrunning him
I love when u cover Lion Players
It has to be because hes a RT because he’s one of the most exciting lineman to watch. Which seems funny to say but that’s how good he is.
I don’t think that was an error by Hassan Reddick. He bent way outside to draw Sewell outside so the blitzing CJGJ would have a 1 on 1 vs the blocking RB and it worked leading to a bad throw by Goff
Best Lions TE to boot
Sewell is still an ascending player. He’s only 22 years old he’s still 4 or 5 years from hitting his prime
2nd Best RT in League Already.
Jesus christ I didn't realize he's only 22
@Fluffyguy958 that's the best part dude is already dominating and he's still a kid. 58 is the man
Best young tackle in madden franchise
I think Reddick just wanted to open Sewell up to allow the Linebacker and Safety to come in underneath on an overload blitz.
Sewell needs to step down to protect his inside and let swift watch the edge, because Reddick is flat footed with no momentum
Borderline"
Bru he is elite
Should’ve talked about the catch play
Big V is also under contract too
Can you do Christian Darrisaw?
Detroit once the laffing stock of football is finally getting some respect
Penei is an animal. Future HOF
That first play is a touchdown if Gibbs is the RB.
He's almost one of the best.
Detroit's oline is elite and Sewell is by far the most talented.
By far? Ragnow is also pretty elite.
What’s crazy is he’s only 22
He 100% is elite
“Borderline” 😂
Future HOF
Sewell is elite, just needs to work on the penalties.
You can’t argue decker is better then Sewell please never say that again 😂
Sewell had most penalties of any rt
didn't know that. how many and how many yards?
He had 10 penalties last season, 8th fewest in the league. Took 5 seconds to look up.
You can be a hater but at least dont be a liar
And people wonder why Detroit doubled down at running back...lol. running the rock wins games
"borderline" ?
