DeMeco Ryans spoke to the media about facing the Lions’ offensive line and the skills of WR Jameson Williams.
On what he sees from the combination of the Lions offensive line’s blocking and the skills of their running backs
DeMeco: Their offensive line does a really good job of running off the football. They’re big guys, big offensive linemen that cover guys up well. And credit to their backs. Two really good backs. Both [Lions RB Jahmyr] Gibbs, very explosive, home-run runner. And then you’ve got [Lions RB David Montgomery] the other guy who’s tough and physical. And so, both of the guys, they run hard, they’re physical. I think they have the most yards after contact. They just find a way to get yards. And it’s one thing for us, as a defense, we have to do a really good job of tackling. People have been there, they’ve been on these guys, but they have done a great job of making guys miss tackles. So, we have to swarm. We have to tackle. It’s going to take more than one person to get their backs down. They’ve done a really great job. Talk about a one-two punch, probably the best one-two punch in the League.
