00:00 >> I'm gonna carry that over into the next playoff game.
00:03 I know you're gonna be on the road, but
00:04 I mean, is that something you have to have that energy?
00:06 >> Yeah, absolutely.
00:07 I mean, just coming in, I think I've said to you guys a bunch,
00:10 it's good attitude and effort.
00:12 It's cheesy, but it's two things that you can take care of.
00:14 We can all come out playing around with a good mentality and a good mindset.
00:19 But yeah, it's gonna be huge on the road.
00:22 I mean, it's gonna be a crazy atmosphere.
00:24 It's gonna be super loud.
00:25 So just doing our best to bring our own juice.
00:28 It's gonna be big.
00:29 >> Do you have a routine that gets yourself fired up?
00:31 I know the network cameras caught Baker sniffing some smelling salt coming out.
00:36 >> Not really, I try not to get too hyped up.
00:40 I mean, I will if I need to.
00:42 But I just try and play as calm as I can.
00:44 That's just how I played my best football.
00:50 I try and stick to that.
00:52 Not get too high, too low.
00:53 Sorry, sorry.
00:54 >> No, no, totally.
00:55 What stands out when you go back and
00:57 look at yourselves and kind of the way you guys handled that first matchup?
01:00 >> Yeah, I don't think we played very good football that game.
01:04 A lot of shooting ourselves in the foot.
01:06 So just being as clean as we can be with pre-snap penalties.
01:10 Post-snap penalties are gonna happen.
01:11 That's part of football.
01:12 But clean up the pre-snap penalty in the Emmys,
01:15 that's not helping ourselves in winning football games.
01:18 So being as clean as we can and going out there and
01:22 executing at a high level is gonna be really big in this game.
01:25 >> How do you prepare for the environment that's gonna come in Detroit?
01:28 You mentioned the pre-snap penalties, and
01:29 I'm sure this is gonna be one of the loudest places you have played in, right?
01:33 >> Yeah, I have a feeling it's gonna be pretty loud.
01:35 I mean, we saw them against the Rams.
01:40 It was a pretty cool video.
01:41 They had like 60,000 people singing Lose Yourself or whatever.
01:44 I thought it was pretty cool.
01:45 But no, just being locked in.
01:47 We're gonna have a good week, dialing up the silent cadence and everything.
01:50 So it's gonna be tough, but
01:53 that's part of it, it's playoffs on the road.
01:56 >> Hey, some teams like going on the road.
01:58 They use the us against the world mentality.
02:00 Just talk a little bit about going into Detroit,
02:03 going downtown into Ford and doing what you do.
02:06 >> Yeah, a couple years ago, we had three road playoff games.
02:10 So definitely gonna be more Lions fans, but like you said,
02:16 it's gonna be us against the world, us against them, us against Detroit, whatever.
02:19 Whatever you need to tell yourself to get hyped up or whatever.
02:23 But yeah, it's gonna be a sea of blue, so we're gonna have to come out swinging.
02:29 >> I know you guys pride yourselves.
