Whos here after Gibbs scored 4 TD in the finale ( led the NFL with 20 TDs) and Lions clinched #1 seed
🎉🎉🎉
Meeeeee, I literally love him😭
😊❤🎉🎉 YESsssss
I came back to rewatch it
@@imanikim_pollard ME TOO!! 🫶🏼🫶🏼🩶💙 He's so cool and humble 😍 Jah us literally Sonic the hedgehog 🦔!! Super fast
Dude I could watch this all day man. Trading back and getting Gibbs and Laporta is absolute master class work from Brad
I can't believe what our lions are doing
Remember all the talking heads said Detroit was stupid for that pick. I wonder what they all gotta say now? Damn 🤡🤡🤡🤡
@@Machinist1755I clearly remember this too so many analyst were talking bad about this pick which turned out to be one of the best draft any team had in long time
And look at what he’s doing now 💪🏾
look at what he's doing now
He is the main man for the rest of the season, here after Goff and Gibbs fake falling over versus Bears to set up La Porta TD. What a great player Gibbs is, Lions have drafted very well in recent years.
170 yards and 4 touchdowns the man is unstoppable!! #1 seed 🙏
He has the most touchdowns
Look at what he’s doing now
When your GM & coach have this much passion & enthusiasm u can easily see why they are the best hires in team history 🙌
Jahmyr is so fun to watch. Seems like a quality person too.
yeah he seems like a well spoken young man
Arguably The riskiest trade in this franchise history and boy did it pay off big time. Gibbs and Laporta excelled our offense
Seeing this on 1/24/24 is nuts, because, look how dope he has been this year!
12-26-2024
He just scored an all TD game against the Vikings for the 1st seed spot.
This reaction hits way differently now.
Gibbs is gonna change our offense
I know that Ben Johnson is salivating
Understatement. Him and LaPorta completely changed everything.
@@andrew4787 LaPorta is so much fun to watch my god
Bro predicted it 😭🙏
@@zekeboyer7508 this man need go play the lotto for me
That pic in the background is tough.
You can vividly hear Dan in the background say “That’s Brad Holmes” damn right
The moment the Lions added 100 horsepower to their offense. Total steal. Any team would trade for him right now.
Love the pic and the behind the scenes. I believe that he was the guy and Holmes thought all along he could trade back for more value and still get him.
How could a guy like Gibbs NOT want to run through a wall for MCDC AND Brad Holmes seeing how excited these guys were to get him!!! Awesome footage!
My entire family can agree lions are finally in good hands! This draft class was 🔥
As a Vikings fan happy for him
I could re-watch this all day
Im not even a lions fan and I keep coming back to this
Lions!
These guys saw something in Gibbs that a lot of us didn't. My god it has been amazing watching him on the field and what a difference he has made to our offense.
The way how Brad Holmes and Dan Campbell evaluates talent in the draft is beyond next level
The elbow to dan had me rolling.
So glad it wasn't the owner congratulating him first. Coach Campbell took one for the office team.
I'm stoked
ONE PRIDE
BUILT FOR THIS
GO LION'S
WE WANT MORE OF THIS!!! Id watch 50 hours of
how can you not love these lions
Im sure it happens all the time, but seeing the reaction when they realize they're getting their guy is fantastic.
What other GM/Coach have the bond that MCDC and Brad have for each other
What a great pick!!! I😅
have Always loved the Tide!!!
WELCOME TO DETROIT!!!
GIBBS GIBBS GIBBS ❤
I remember at the time Brad Holmes taking heat for taking a RB so early in the draft, and now no one is saying. The Lions have the most lethal duo RBs in the league right now. Brad Holmes has great vision for what kind of players the Lions need to be successful, and it has been paying off.
15 and 2! Four TDs! Good call!!!🫡🫡🫡
SO LIT. I know it's not all on them, but smashing draft after draft, trading around and getting exactly who they want damn near every time... LFG!!!! This is now how I drew it up when I imagined "The Lions Git Good"... (And I been dreaming 40 years now)
Not gonna lie I was kinda skeptical of this pick last year but after seeing him his rookie season… man what a great pick.
Just think of the uproar if we had gotten him at 6. Lol Brad works his magic and we get him And LaPorta. Time will tell how well that went but my gut says they will be huge for us :)
Comments that age well 💙
@@Megan-rz4fc ha thanks. I saw his highlights from college and thought, Maybe he could be Sanders 2.0? Not quite since there is no 2.0 version of that gift from God. In fantasy football I wanted All the lions offensive players. Didn't get but I'm happy I was right to want them lol
"Oh the Lions were really reaching in taking Gibbs so early. They aren't getting value with this pick..." That's what they said. Brad Holmes is just way ahead of the curve. I love that guy.
Sheila just like I don’t know why all these guys are so excited but I guess I’m happy too 😂
They definitely made the right choice. Dude is a monster.
One pride lion pride one pride lion pride
💙💙💙💙💙
God bless Gibbs man
Its funny because we have had this type of combo of running backs before a long time ago with Billy Sims being the finess and speed back and Dexter Bussey being the power back. Now we have in my opinion even better Jamyr Gibbs speed and David Montgomery power.
Would’ve taken him at #6, but they traded and got Gibbs & laporta (who are both excelling in training camp)
I wouldve never expected an tight end who played for us would bring us this far. At first i had my doubts with Brad Holmes, till i seen him weed out all the weak links and then traded Stafford away! Then i knew Brad was very serious about winning!!
High five all around - The Waterboy 😂
Clap hands clap hands
@@nickwytE haha that's it!
Slap Hands! SLAP HANDS!!!
3100 yards and 31 tds in 2 seasons 👀👀
Chess master Brad making everyone eat it now 😂
Brad elbowing Dan and Dan having to recover in the background still sends me
Sounds like he was 7 on their board? And they pulled Laporta outta this, sheesh that’s how you win a draft 🫡
Holmes is just playing a different game as a GM
next CMC 🔥
Pretty obvious that's who they wanted all along
Holmes knew exactly what he was doing. Thank god
I hope they start using him once he comes back from injury. He’s killing me in fantasy rn.
How’s it going now
Draft Gibbs with the 12th pick… Gives Montgomery 32 carries.
Sonic and Knuckles just had to get going lol
Our offence is so fukin lit now! Lets go!
Best pick ever
Another thing about brad homes is he knows what the other teams are going to draft
Best part is Brad hitting Dan 😂
SONIC!!!!!
Oh man
Getting sonic was definitely the best pick this draft
Great pick he will fit are offense
Unleash Gibbs!!
In Brad we trust what a gm there’s been dubt but only we believed so many times just to get smacked but this guy has stuck too his guns took the heat and built a contender defined leadership being able too stick to the process pick the guys that fit what he needed and now he gets the last laugh and he did it all his way
I think once Witherspoon was off the board, they opted to trade back. Just my two cents.
Yes because that is the reaction I would give if I got my second choice too.
Seriously? 🤣😜
This pick and this draft proved that the Draft experts are absolutely horrible at their job.
No value from them outside of educating us on players themselves. They have no idea what front offices value.
I don't exactly understand that pick. But we have no reason to not trust Holmes, Campbell, and Ben Johnson. They said they were comfortable taking him at 6 but they knew they could get a little more out of that pick. That's who they wanted so let's see what they do with him.
If ur confused lol then u lose respect
@@Xenimus the lions had a top 5 offense last year. And the 2nd worst defense. So it would make sense to draft a defensive player with their first pick. I trust them but I thought they'd go all defense in the first 2 rounds.
I have reasons
@@styxscorpion4541I'm with you. Brad totally broke draft logic to get his guys. I hope we're dead wrong on what we needed to draft in the 1st round, and I hope Brad really was the smartest guy in the room.
@@CombatLegsVIDS yeah. He's been very good in the draft so far. But they wanted Gibbs from the start. They must see something in him.
let brad cook
1:16 Never seen a franchise so excited to draft a backup RB in the first round
Care to walk that take back?
never seen a comment so confidently wrong
😂@@Khvvgg
@@Khvvgg Took 8 or so weeks but yeah definitely was wrong. Glad I’m wrong though want to see the Lions have some success
I'm late to the party, but I know you feel dumb right about now!
People were literally laughing over this.
They are not laughing anymore.
You think they would reconsider
I remember being so pissed at that pick but now I get so happy every time I see this
Legatron
Forward down the field, a charging team that will not yield
The lady was lucky Holmes got it all out before he got to her. LOL!
Dan Gamble 😂
Think about it… Gms and front offices get fired all the time. One pick can make or break a career. One pick can change whether or not they have to relocate families. 10s of millions of dollars. Generational wealth.
The amount of Clown Noses in this comment section after the Lions unleashed Sonic and Knuckles is great to see
Who did Tennessee take at 11?!!
They picked a Guard
And people said this was a wasted pick
Just win.
Still not sold on this guy yet, but I hope he proves wrong and I hope he does well for this team. #OnePride
Be sold on Ben Johnson then
@adgee5401 I'm already sold on Ben Johnson. I was scared that he might take a head coaching job and leave us, but luckily he chose to stay. I guess if anyone can help Gibbs reach his full potential, it's him. I certainly hope so.
he'll be an OP alvin kamara in this offense
@@coylebarre1240 Why aren't you sold lol? You can literally take your same opinion, and apply it to virtually every single teams Draft Picks in the entire draft. Considering not 1 player has played a regulation NFL game yet, nobody knows who is gonna be good, and or bad.
What we know which is a fact, is Gibbs has been very impressive in Training Camp, and him and Goff already seem to have really good chemistry. Same with Laporta. We also know for a fact that even our Defense in training camp, couldn't keep up with Gibbs. Nobody is expecting him to be a 1st ballot Hall of Famer.. But if you think he won't impact our team positively next year, then I think you are misinformed and don't know much about ball.
@jleif7736 true, but this is only training camp. We'll see what he does in a game. But keep in mind, I HOPE HE PROVES ME WRONG. I really hope he does well. Especially since we spent a first round pick on him. But Brad Holmes has proven me wrong before, hopefully he does it again.
Never thought I'd see a team draft a guy in the first round with no intentions of using him
What about that now?
@@StoneColdv22 still had crazy efficiency with limited volume but hell of a season from him
First
Wish they would unleash him lol
All “unleashing” players does is give them a higher risk of injury
They are prolonging his career significantly by having him split time with Montgomery
Lol drafted a dude so he sees the field 5 times in a half. No red ZONE PLAYS NICE
Dude doesn't need to be in the red zone to score. That was the point of drafting him
This aged well….
Gibbs doesn’t need RZ plays 😂😂😂
Yikes this looks worse every day
HUH?????????????????????????
@@zacharypearlman8378 Captain Hindsight has arrived.
@@Urbank06 just say you were wrong boss. There's a reason why you wait a lil but before condemning rookies. Hopefully he keeps trucking
@@k-ri2023 But I wasn’t wrong. It was always a usage issue from the start. He was 100% misused to start the year. I never said he wouldn’t be good and that comment wasn’t even insinuating that.
@Urbank06 He wasn't necessarily misused. He wasn't waiting for the holes to open up and the blocks to finish forming. If you rewatch some of the interviews or the games after the Tampa Bay game last year when he was becoming more of a featured back after Montgomery went down, he started to become more patient. He waited for the blocks to form and the holes to open up.
Bijan is better imo
Bijan is the better runner, Gibbs is the better player.
bijan is not better then gibbs lol nice take tho
YOU HAD MONTGOMORY
Who cares man? Now we have two headed monster threat, the one two punch, a good nfl team has two solid Running backs, one to be the north to south hard runner guy and the other to make flashy plays catching and also running
Two different backs u sound silly 😂 does Montgomery has sub 4.2 speed???
You that ignorant huh? 😂😂😂
@@donbur1553 bruh, we had Williams and Swift last year and they were the reason why we stayed in games and got to 9-8, the one two punch combo, and it’s gonna be the same with Gibbs and Montgomery
We still have Montgomery, and now we have a young dawg in Gibbs. He will be more of a weapon at reciever, and with Ben Johnson calling the offense, he will be utilized in a different way than Montgomery.
Freaking embarrassing.
😂 for you!
