Lions head coach Jim Schwartz talked over some of the key points from the Lions 26-23 win over the Eagles with Tom Leyden on Monday afternoon.

Jim and Tom discussed the fact the Lions overcame 16 penalties to win, but also focused on the team's ability to make the big plays when they presented themselves, on offense, defense and special teams.

They also discussed the power of the "three-and-out," and what it does to everyone on the sidelines. 

With the Tigers playing in the ALCS and the Lions preparing for a Monday Night Football game in Chicago, Jim talks about being a part of the excitement for Detroit sports fans.
