Penei in my eyes was the true start of the Brand New Lions. Perfect culture fit, already a lockerroom leader. Guys like he, Hutch, and Saint, these types of guys are how you turn a franchise into a perennial winner. You can't overstate how important these types of dudes are. 💪
Exactly, previous regimes woulda took chase. But Brad got himself his cornerstone tackle instead. The game will forever be won in the trenches. U win up front and everything else falls into place
Nice breakdown on Sewell. I really like watching this guy play. He never gets his feet crossed and is just quick as hell to his spots. Few get through or around him, and I have seen guys shy away from his path downfield. (no shame, I would). The best, though, is when they put him in motion as eligible, which I expect more of this season. As an old Lion fan, you never expected to get players like him.
When watching the game you don’t get to see these things happening focused on so much and the camera angles….. but my goodness when you turn on this man’s tape he’s so fast and strong! And in the videos during the run plays you could see him kind of talking his ish shaking his head knowing he’s a bad man!! Lol I’m over here watching this with big smiles because this man is very dangerous and I’m glad he part of my team! Brad Holmes has been killing it and we are building something that Detroit has never seen and that’s a complete team! And I think we are a few years away from actually winning a Super Bowl but it’s coming! I just pray that the staff and everyone has that goal in mind let’s finish what we started here before taking head coaching jobs and everything of that nature! Money is good and all but to make history is that much sweeter! Great video as usual and as a lions fan I’m glad to have someone with knowledge and effort covering us in this manner!
As a Bengals fan when we had the chance to take Sewell I was desperate after how atrocious our line was the year Joe blew his knee out. The pick turned into Jamarr Chase so I'm no mad at all. That draft was just loaded.
Come on man, he is the the best OT in the NFL. I guess this video is after the 2022 season, so I guess there was some room for doubt after only two years, but not anymore. Not after his performance in the 2023 season. Excellent video, and very informative commentary.
Penei Sewell is the next Trent Williams. He's a freak athlete. The only thing keeping him from being super Elite right now is his pass pro and taking a few too many penalties, but he's only turning 23 this year. He'll be the best tackle in the NFL before his rookie contract is over.
Let him hang with Lane Johnson for a few months and learn everything he knows. If Sewell becomes like that, the Lions have the best tackle in the game for the next 10 years. What a great building block Sewell is. Good to see the Lions make some noise, I hope they win the NFC North this year.
Baring injury he's gunna be in the hall of fame...damn he's got 8 to 10 more years and he's been getting better every season. Wow! He's a beast and one of the best in the game period regardless of position. Go Lions!
He played left tackle in college but now is playing right tackle. And he opted out of his senior year. So basically he switched tackle positions and only played the past two years. He's going to get better.
They probably made him a right tackle because they feel he maybe too slow to be a left tackle. Left tackle is a more valuable position than right. Rashawn Slater who was in the same draft as him is an elite left tackle, they probably should’ve drafted him instead.
@@motec8222 at left tackle we have Taylor Decker signed for years. Sewell was better at left in college. Either way, Sewell is going to be a hall of famer
@@mrq2044 right. Sewell is probably the fastest OT in the league lmao. He is at RT because the Lions already had a quality, established vet (Decker) at LT when they brought him in, and he wasn't beating Decker out of that spot as a rookie. They've kept it that way for 3 years now, and Sewell is easily the best RT in the league and possibly the single best offensive lineman, period.
@eduardooneal pretty sure he's saying they got a nice fall back option, not that CD is better than Penei. If the vikings had matt Patricia as coach and his buddy Bob building their team they'd probably have Sewell instead of us lol
Sewell won the Packers finale with his blocking on the catch and pitch to Swift. He’s the Lions best player easily. Which is saying a lot due to being on the same offensive line as Ragnow. I still have Williams over Sewell as the games best OT.
I'll remember that play forever. Big ol 58 peeling off a block n getting down field to kill a DB was awesome. Dude is amazing, I really wanna get a 58 jersey
if you were to pick one tackle today to have on your team for the next 10 years it should be penei sewell. there may be other guys who are comparable but look at how old they are. penei is still young and can do it all as well as anyone else in the league.
There are a few young OTs that are considered Stars already: Sewell, Rashawn Slater, Christian Darrisaw, Andrew Thomas, Ikem Ekwonu and Abraham Lucas. Charles Cross and Tyler Smith are not that far behind.
The NFL debated if they should call it a hold. They actually decided a few years ago that it is a hold and theyll start calling it. But they ended up reversing that ruling a year later. Saying it's not a hold. Now they longer call it a hold.
Love your content already… I’m here from the Sheduar Colorado film breakdown. I was impressed so I decided to indulge. I’ve always been interested in learning the ins and outs of an offense. I think you do a great job identifying and defining techniques. I had the same question, wouldn’t that be holding. I can tell it’s a big time move that only a few guys are even athletic enough to try. But the fact that your grabbing the defender, I get it your releasing him really quickly, but if a ref happens to catch that, then wouldn’t it be holding ??
He's a different beast for sure, Williams is a human grizzly. Can't imagine how easily he could move a regular 200ish pound humans. Pick ya up like a baby one-handed, probably
I knew Sewell was legit when in his rookie season he stood toe to toe with Aaron Donald and grabbed Donald's facemask, making Donald back down immediately.
Great player. But I still don't know how the Lions are considered to have a better roster than the Packers? For instance, on the OL, the Packers have two Pro Bowlers in Bakhtiari and Jenkins, and two other guys (Toms and Nijman) with higher RAS than Sewell. (Sewell 8.99, Toms 9.59, Nijman 9.80). Again, just in terms of roster construction, how is Sewell supposed to dominate against a Packers front that includes Gary (RAS 9.94), LVN (RAS 9.39) Smith (RAS 9.80), and Wyatt (RAS 9.56)? I guess we'll have to wait and see.
Lol ok kid. Crosby not even top 10 but one question who dominated stats wise lol?. Crosby had one good push but overall your boy got educated and you still a crybaby lol
Man he will be good one day, but geez some vid that he actually makes a play. All those plays are normal lineman plays away from them. Please do him justice and provide good content or stop acting like you know what you’re talking about it’s embarrassing.
If He is as you stated, "BEST Tackle in the NFL"... Then Dan Moore is 2nd best. Of the #46 players drafted in '21 as OL-All designations (G,C,T, OL) (Moore's & Penei Sewell draftee year) ONLY #6 have been #2 year starters in addition to Moore. Of these #6, ONLY #2 were capable of Being OT's besides Dan Moore (Liam Eichenberg 2nd Round & Penei Sewell 1st round). ONLY the 1st rounder PeneiSewell & Dan Moore have started EVERY game. Of those #46, #7 where designated as T, of that #7; zero have started either season. ZERO. Dan Moore has similar penalty profile when compared to EichenBerg yet he started #8 less game than Moore. So nearly identical quantity of penalties and Moore started #8 more games. When assessing Penei Sewell & Dan Moore regarding penalties....MOORE has ONE less penalty. These #2 ARE the ONLY players at OT that started EVERY game for their respective teams. It becomes Obvious that Penei and Dan were the bes #2 OT's from the '21 draft. Enough of the Dan Moore will be moving aside for B Jones. Getting Dan Moore in round #4 vs round #1 as Penei Sewell.... Damn equal players - Detroit pays $24.1M/4years; whereas Pittsburgh pays $4.2M/4years. $20M($5M/Y) net savings This is why PREDRAFT '23... I said to EVERYone that would listen. Steelers find talent at discount; above and beyond ANY franchise. Only #1 reason to draft Jones... Stop the soccer Mom Mantra "Protect Kenny"
@@akiyahwilliams9521 I mean fair, Lane has been around for quite a bit longer so Andrew doesn’t have as many accolades. Only reason I say Thomas outside of Giants bias is that I think playing on the left is a bit harder than playing on the right

Hope he's a lion for life. He could be our next HOFer.
Maybe most offensive offensive lineman ever, also thinking about his receiving yards! 😅
He's never leaving that building, dude is too great and important with his leadership. He's the cornerstone of the brand new lions for me.
He’s there as long as MCDC is there
I don't see Detroit ever letting him go. If/when it comes to it, they'll let Decker leave, re-sign Sewell, and probably move him to the LT.

This aged well. First team All Pro and PFF's highest graded offensive lineman. BEAST.

And still checking down quick
He's got hands too boys! A lethal weapon to all defenses 😁
Half of those "slingshot blocks" look like HOLDS to me 😂
Penei aint the best yet, but he will be! Only 22 yrs old. Wait till he gets seasoned like Trent and Lane... he'll be in their league for sure 💯
You nailed this one
ABSOLUTELY THE BEST AS A PLAYER AND A TEAM LEADER!
He’s talented but no right tackle has ANYTHING on Lane Johnson who hasn’t given up a sack in 3 yrs and is going straight to the HOF
Plus he played through a nasty injury and still never gave up a sack. No questioning him as the #1.
Lane johnson hasn't allowed a sack in like 4 years and isn't injured ever.
I was devastated as a Vikings fan when he went to the lions
But at least we got darrisaw
But is darrisaw catching passes against the lions ?😅
@eduardooneal pretty sure he's saying they got a nice fall back option, not that CD is better than Penei. If the vikings had matt Patricia as coach and his buddy Bob building their team they'd probably have Sewell instead of us lol

As a lions fan we love him
@@Queue-NextUp I'm saying Darrisaw is better and so does PFF....
6:24 lmao Micah parson wanted no smoke with sewell
Sewell isn't just blocking you for one play, he's wearin your ass out for later. He never stops driving, ever.
one of the best ever
if i seen sewel in public, i would be star struck
No more might, he IS!
Sewell won the Packers finale with his blocking on the catch and pitch to Swift. He’s the Lions best player easily. Which is saying a lot due to being on the same offensive line as Ragnow. I still have Williams over Sewell as the games best OT.

@@joshlewis575 yeah and i think people underestimate just how much that opens up the playbook to have a guy like that on your oline.

How is the slingshot method not considered holding? I am a big Lions fan and love Penei Sewell but when I see that I sometimes think it is holding.
penei is a beast for sure but im not sure if hes the best
Facts
I think Sewell is a scarier Man than Aaron Donald Sewell is also a very versatile player
cap
Penei is a very good player. Trent Williams is the best football player in the NFL, at any position. IMO.
He's a different beast for sure, Williams is a human grizzly. Can't imagine how easily he could move a regular 200ish pound humans. Pick ya up like a baby one-handed, probably
He top 10 not best because of run pro
Sewell is a H.O.F Gold Jacket. Everyone in Detroit already knows

No NO, you can say it!
