Jim Schwartz Talks Jahvid Best, 49ers, Nick Fairley and Kid Rock

Detroit Lions head coach Jim Schwartz joined the Karsch and Anderson show on 97.1 FM in Detroit this morning. Here are some of the things he talked about:

- Concentration during the game generally kept Schwartz from noticing the raucous environment but he said it was noticeable in the form of the false start penalties.
- Best’s performance was good for more reasons than just the 88-yard run. Some of his best runs were late in the game.
- Keeping Devin Hester in check was a group effort and one satisfying area of the game.
- They have a lot of confidence but are a hard-working, blue collar team. Part of coach’s job is to keep team level.
- They Know what to expect from San Francisco based on five games of tape and what Jim Harbaugh did at Stanford.
- Team hasn’t been had panic about them concerning the running game.
- 49ers might have the best linebacking corps in the league. San Francisco has talented players and now it is evident.
- It was good to get Nick Fairley in the game and he was active when on the field. It was a big first step for him. There were no setbacks during the game.
- Schwartz previously met Kid Rock while in Nashville, has been a fan for a long time.
