Hank Fraley

I mean, these guys have been doing an excellent job.

And Hank Fraley? He, man, he deserves so much credit.

Because think about it.

You move Putnay over to the left side.

And then you bring in Juice Squad, the guy that was supposed to back up, and he ends up starting the center.

I mean, just a great job.

So Hank Fraley is one of those heroes that we don't talk about a lot, but I think he's done a masterful job with this offensive line, and they're only getting better.

That's the great thing about it.

Brown, and Jamison Williams, and they're all out of bubblegum.

uh you know the vikings defense as well is just incredible i just mentioned it it's them and the seahawks two of the best defenses we've seen on record i have some vikings defense stats don't you worry but no going against this lions team that i thought called an incredible i thought drew petzing and hank fraley called an incredible game against the packers pulled all the levers the correct levers did some great tendency breakers with saint brown outside did some other tendency breakers too bootlegging out of the god did some really cool stuff going against a Vikings defense that is really taking the two teams and doing some really, really cool stuff on their end as well.

So what is grabbing your attention for our Hossify of the Week?

Yeah, by the way, we're also kind of at the point of the Lions offense where Scott Pinauski says this really well, where if you're a quarterback long enough in a team, you're basically the honor offensive coordinator.

This is also just – it's a three-way partnership between Hank Fraley, Drew Petzig, and Jared Goff.

I mean, Goff has just been – he's been awesome this year.

He has.

And I think it starts one with Drew Petzing.

And let's just say Drew Petzing and staff, right? The solving of the equation, the deciphering of the looks and the blocking schemes falls to Petzing and probably Hank Fraley as well, right? I think, two, I think Jared Goff is going to handle a lot of those protection adjustments more than Cade Mays.

One, because Mays is just getting into the flow of things again.

Two, we've noted this before.

questions right you know Sewell's ability to slide over and play left tackle how seamless would it be could he do it yeah he did it as a as a rookie obviously did it in college at Oregon I don't think anyone would have thought that it would have gone as well as it has I mean he's the top graded tackle overall not right tackle not left tackle overall by pro football focus he's dominant in the run game It was funny.

They were telling a story where he was in the, I think it was Hank Fraley.

I was just about to say that

wrong hand went down.

How about the young buck Tate Ratledge? It was a big question mark, how he would improve from.

year one to year two.

And again, it's so valuable that we talked to Hank Fraley this week and it was the biggest question of what has the jump been? And he's like, he's just reacting.

He's not having to think too much and speaking to just how much that makes a difference at his position at guard.
