I was just thinking about this the other day. My Grandma was a die hard Lions fan. She'd be loosing her mind watching this team. I hope they can bring home the Lombardi for all the fans who didn't get to see this great team.
My dad would never believe this is happening at all. From 2009-2014 we watched the games n struggled. Seen it all I continued to watch after his death but gave up in 2016-17. Came back in 2022 after seeing the progress and man, wish he was here today
Sheila knew that she didn't know football. She got Chris Speilman to help her find Brad and Dan. She knew what she didn't know.... And that changed the damn culture.
It wasn't that many years ago when the talk was the Lions needed new ownership. My how the times have changed. Now the Detroit Lions are the gold standard of the NFL.
I thought about my brother last night, he was a lifelong Lions fan too. He died a year and one month ago, Dec 6 2023. I wished he could have seen this. He would have loved this. He was 65.
My dad and I have been lifelong Lions fans. He passed away a little over a year ago. I cried last night wishing he was still around to see the success the Lions are having. RIP Poppa!!😢
Don’t worry, I’m sure he has smiles galore up there seeing what is happening to his Lions! If the Packers don’t make it, either the Purple Heathens or the kitties better make it!!!
My mother passed in 2021, in her closet I found a shirt saying. " please Lions just win one" with the Lombardi trophy on it. Then my father passed in 2023 both die hard lions fans. My mom at 55 and dad weeks after turning 60. I cried as well wishing they could see this.
My father passed away last year also, I cried last night too, wishing he could be here watching this team with me, he was a Cowboys fan but loved watching the Lions.. I know your pain brother..
My dad been gone 16 and boy I sure he wish he would have been here these last few years to experience this lions team! Got teary eyed last night thinking about it. Man we got it good right now
@@kbooger20 Lions had more penalties than the Vikings did... Vikings were never called for offensive pass interference or defensive holdings/pass interference not once. You had your calls, The Lions were just far and away a better team. In fact, had the Lions had HALF the injuries as last night, y'all woulda lost by 40
@@TheScottAF more or less penalties doesn't matter when the Lions hold and interfere on every play. And that was a nice no call on the safety, he hit the lineman, so an obvious penalty. The def holding makes a huge difference when you blitz every play. How does a 4th string CB compete with WRs? Hold, he isn't just the next Revis.
@@kbooger20 how about all the delay of game penalties Vikings consistently got away with? Conveniently on plays where big gains followed? Or how about Darnold air mailing a ball 30 yards north of any receiver and not getting intentional grounding? Point is, calls get missed all the time on both sides. Vikings didn't have it Sunday night... and you also played a team missing 15+ players and still got smacked. No amount of bitching about the refs changes that. Vikes are still a great team and have a lot to look forward to in the playoffs.
ZaDarius Smith is quickly becoming one of my favorite players. When he nearly had an interception that fell through his hands and he came off the ground with a smile on my face, man oh man do I wish I could be like that.
Detroit put on an absolute clinic. My Vikings certainly could have played better, but that was definitely Detroit saying "we're better than you." Have to respect that. I wish them the best of luck (as long as they're not playing us, of course) in the post-season.
Yeah you could tell Donald has never even played in a playoff game yet. He's never started one. This was basically like a playoff game because you get to really really improve your chances if you win last night. And you could tell he was like a deer in the headlights. The Detroit crowd obviously caused problems on the line of scrimmage, and there was a couple of really big time pass rushes that caused him to throw balls he didn't want to and when you throw too early you're usually jacked and you throw them a little too high because he's probably been coached to not throw any interceptions. But the Detroit defense definitely was jacked up with the return of their best linebacker from that broken arm. So, actually Minnesota will have a much better chance on the road against la. And like Coach Campbell said to your coach right after the game in the handshake, he said "we'll see you right back here in a couple weeks". And he's probably right. I know Campbell and that defense would much rather go against Donald again than Matt stafford. Stafford seems to give Detroit more problems
THESE lions are one of the toughest mentality detroit teams ive ever seen. Their offense laid an egg their defense is decimated with injuries and they responded every single time. Im stoked
Thank you. And yes. They are mentally tough. This is the first Lions team I have ever seen, that plays as a team. Instead of as individuals. Fighting for those close games.
He’s definitely gonna downplay the lions and say the Vikings offense played bad because Sam Darnold is bad + not because the Lions defense dominated the entire game to hold them to 0 TDs lmao
I am a life long Vikings fan. Had my share of heartbreak for sure. I am thrilled for the Detroit Lions and their fans. If the vikes are out I am pulling hard for the Lions
To be fair, WCF cared a lot, he just was not good at picking the right people, and didn't treat it as a business decision. He was way too loyal to those he hired, long past the time he should have cut them loose for lack of performance. SHF not only made the right choices, but she had a plan and strategy and stuck to it.
Old enough to have watched the '57 blacked-out champ game. Saw it on Lansing's channel 6, 91 miles from Briggs stadium. So many gone relatives & friends that didn't see this season. I feel truly blessed. Go Lions !
I remember those days with the blacked out games. Back before cable tv. So you had to go somewhere where you could pick up a TV network that was deemed outside the 60 Mi radius or whatever it was. Now I see that the NFL has allowed just the prime Network to show the Saturday night Steelers at Ravens game? What a travesty that the NFL won't allow millions of fans to watch the Steelers at the Ravens playoff game on a Saturday night because they're trying to make money off of the Prime streaming Channel? I'm just sick of it. All of these games should be on regular Network television beard it's not like the NFL doesn't have enough billion dollars in their revenues from television contracts. But they want to have a playoff game exclusively on a streaming network? Did you ever think you would see such ridiculous stuff I never did and I'm 64 years old and it's getting to be a real problem. They're trying to suck as much money out of people by buying these Services just to watch a game
Glad that Rich is more honest about the Lions success than Brockman is 🤣 15 wins on the season, 1 seed, swept the winningest division in NFL history, Gibbs is the league leader in touchdowns, and the defense with Alex ANALZONE back looked much improved. The road to the Super Bowl runs through Motown baby!
@@dinklezucc5982 That’s what I said Amik morphed into his final form last night. Hopefully he can keep it up for a superbowl run. With Arnold going down we’re gonna need it.
Best thing about this team is Bates. Last year, Campbell had concerns about the kicking and went for it a lot. Now, he has a top notch kicker who can hit from distance. Is ok to allow the 58 yarders
it was like remember the titans last night with aaron glenn telling the defense..."you blitz all night...you make sure they remember, forever, the night they played the lions."
They could make a movie about the Lions 2024 regular season. Hope it has a happy ending in the weeks to come. Still, whatever happens, I feel like the Lions walk away with their heads held high, win or lose now.
@@CNC-Time-Lapseoh I'm sure they've had a professional NFL films crew following them around all the time with cameras and microphones at multiple places and during games and everywhere else. They're going to put out a really nice 90-minute special if Detroit wins it all
Man this team there is something special with my lions ,my gut is telling me ,this team is like the " bless you boys " in 84 and the swagger of the bad boys
I’ve supported the Lions for 40 years listening to armed forces radio from Glasgow Scotland when nobody here even knew what nfl was never thought we would get here hopefully they can finish the job
Lions defense was banged up beyond recognition, and they still put up a dominant front at the goal line. Dan Campbell and Co has got this team believing they're invincible.
After Dr Robotnik’s evil henchman Van Ginkel knocked all of Sonic’s coins and rings out of him, he sure went on a mission after that to get them all back…and then some more! 😤🦁
The credit formula of this turnaround in the Motor City should be given to Owner Sheila Ford Hamp. What a immaculate job she done turning this franchise around through the ground up allowing her mom giving her the keys to success. GM Brad Holmes should be Executive of the Year, Chris Spielman, for what he went through losing his wife to cancer and being very supportive of the team he cherish, should deserve props, OC Ben Johnson and DC Aaron Glenn should get head coaching opportunities. Jared Goff who been to the Superbowl before but needs a tweaking and now he's a high octane QB and finally the mastermind of all HCs, Gambling Dan Campbell who's unapologetic that takes no prisoners in order for this team to grow and shine, definitely should be Coach of the Year. The road 🛣️ to the Superbowl goes to the Motor City 🏙️. Good luck contenders because these are not your same old Lions. This team is on a mission and it will be Lions vs. Chiefs in Superbowl 59 at the big easy in New Orleans.
"They didn't believe, now they bout to see about it. With the whole season on the line, now they know we about it. And you will see!" Division winners yet again!💯 Let's go, Lions!🦁
Lions showed in this game that if the team goes into the game knowing that there is everything to play for, they will fight for everything, bite the knees take chunks out of the opponent all that stuff. Whoever the AFC champ is better watch out. If/when the Lions make it to the Super Bowl, they're winning that Lombardi coz it, is everything.
It's not an accident that the Lions defense returned when Alex Anzalone did. He needs to be a bigger part of the conversation instead of Aidan Hutchinson
I respect Rich for pointing out the inconvenient truth about the medias coverage of the lions, including his own. Thats better then any flowers your gonna give the lions
First of all, don't care how good your coordinators are if you don't have the entire organization working together you will not win, it's a rare thing the lion's have period...
My papa passed away in 2016 after a painful battle with dementia, but up until the end he was as diehard of a Detroit sports fan as you could get. He was 8 years old the last time the Lions won a championship, and he waited his whole life to see it again. I wish he could be here to see just how far we've come. If we win the Super Bowl this year, it will be for every grandfather, father, and brother who is no longer here with us. Rest in peace to all of our loved ones 💙 GO LIONS!!!
I have to admit (to myself) that the Lions are a clear threat to the Chiefs crown. Dan Campbell (for me) is the Coach of the Year and Goff should be this years MVP and I'm a Chiefs fan.
No, he's going to be the highest paid O.C., I see him making more than %50 of the head coaches in the league when he renews or renegotiate his co tract, B.J. and A.G. aren't going anywhere, they're in the best possible possitions in football to win multiple superbowls, Detroit's front office knows this, B.J. and A.G. are the most important elements of Detroit's long term plans for their plans for multiple superbowls pursuit!
My mother passed in 2021, and in her closet, I found a shirt saying. "please Lions just win one" with the Lombardi trophy on it. Then my father passed in 2023, both huge lions fans. My mom at 55 and dad weeks after turning 60. I cried, wishing they could see this.
I'm not a partisan fan of either team, so going into it, I thought that it would be a close game. But Darnold choked, while Lions completely dominated the second half. The Vikings had a great season, but that game showed that they're not ready for the big show. The Lions, on the other hand, made a huge statement. They deserve to be the top team in the NFC. And wit the bye, they'll be really, really hard to defeat at home in the playoffs.
I still can't believe how good the lions defense was in that game. AG really out did himself. If the Lions can play that kind of a lock down style, they got this. It was awesome to see Hutchinson on the sideline helping out.
Rich - I will give you credit for your confession. Many of the other talking heads are eating crow today. As a long-suffering lion's fan, I can say this has been a sweet run and magical season, regardless of the outcome moving forward. Go Lions!!!!
Been a diehard since day one, dad raised me a lions fan and have been true blue last 39 years. Been there for all the deep deep lows, we’re on the other side and riding high. Such a different organization top down than we’ve ever been, GM down to the water boy, this is a complete organization all moving in the common goal of winning, just winning….lets ride!!! Next man up, doesn’t matter who, it’s a team game for a reason, anyone anytime!!

Lions showed in this game that if the team goes into the game knowing that there is everything to play for, they will fight for everything, bite the knees take chunks out of the opponent all that stuff.
Whoever the AFC champ is better watch out. If/when the Lions make it to the Super Bowl, they're winning that Lombardi coz it, is everything.
It's not an accident that the Lions defense returned when Alex Anzalone did. He needs to be a bigger part of the conversation instead of Aidan Hutchinson
THIS!
He makes the entire front 7 better. We actually had a pass rush last night which had been completely gone for weeks.
Lions beat the Vikings 31-9 by basically having their defense shut Darnold down. In SB55, the Buc's shut down Holmes and won 31-9. Ironic.
Detroit vs Everybody
45 yr old fan
Go Lions!
I respect Rich for pointing out the inconvenient truth about the medias coverage of the lions, including his own. Thats better then any flowers your gonna give the lions
We shut down a triple crown receiver with a backup CB
"provided the knuckles too." 😂
Kings of the North 🦁🔥
After hearing everyone saying that The Lions couldn't beat the Vikings...and here we are now
Loved every word Rich said
Glad to have you back Rich. Go Lions!!
First of all, don't care how good your coordinators are if you don't have the entire organization working together you will not win, it's a rare thing the lion's have period...
Well tell Dad to Bears fans who honestly believe if they just got Ben Johnson then they'll be division winners if not likely more than that😂😂😂😂😂😂
What a show this guy knows how to talk wow
Lions fan since 88. I expect to win now. Congrats to all Lions fans. Go Lions 🙌
I think Campbell's message when he took over as Head Coach was very artful. More than that, he has been proven right.
What a victory Monday
I think that was more a battle of coordinators and Aaron Glenn beat Kevin O'Connell like a drum.
The way the Lions played last night reminded me of watching the National Champion Wolverines.
You go Rich!👍
A great Monday!
My papa passed away in 2016 after a painful battle with dementia, but up until the end he was as diehard of a Detroit sports fan as you could get. He was 8 years old the last time the Lions won a championship, and he waited his whole life to see it again. I wish he could be here to see just how far we've come. If we win the Super Bowl this year, it will be for every grandfather, father, and brother who is no longer here with us. Rest in peace to all of our loved ones 💙
GO LIONS!!!
Great show❤
Great Job Rich 👏 👍
I have to admit (to myself) that the Lions are a clear threat to the Chiefs crown. Dan Campbell (for me) is the Coach of the Year and Goff should be this years MVP and I'm a Chiefs fan.
Ben Johnson is going to be the highest paid HC in the league. Teams are going to be begging him to coach for them even more so than last year.
Even though Aaron Glenn is probably the better coordinator out of the two. At least he’s proven that this year.
Then Dan is going to be exposed lol
No, he's going to be the highest paid O.C., I see him making more than %50 of the head coaches in the league when he renews or renegotiate his co tract, B.J. and A.G. aren't going anywhere, they're in the best possible possitions in football to win multiple superbowls, Detroit's front office knows this, B.J. and A.G. are the most important elements of Detroit's long term plans for their plans for multiple superbowls pursuit!
@@MrHunterbg my only argument here os people put a priority on offense, but AG should be paid as well
Nobody is leaving for a couple years. Unfinished business. Jobs come open every single year.
Spot on Rich.
My mother passed in 2021, and in her closet, I found a shirt saying. "please Lions just win one" with the Lombardi trophy on it. Then my father passed in 2023, both huge lions fans. My mom at 55 and dad weeks after turning 60. I cried, wishing they could see this.
Let’s go lionsssssss
I'm not a partisan fan of either team, so going into it, I thought that it would be a close game. But Darnold choked, while Lions completely dominated the second half. The Vikings had a great season, but that game showed that they're not ready for the big show. The Lions, on the other hand, made a huge statement. They deserve to be the top team in the NFC. And wit the bye, they'll be really, really hard to defeat at home in the playoffs.
Detroit put the league on notice. Come one, come all!
I like when they make the lions the underdog, we usually win 😂
Not a Lions fan but Dan Campbell has me believing in this team type of coach you'd run through a wall for him.
🙏 for Detroit Lions 🦁 to be the next Dynasty this era.
I still can't believe how good the lions defense was in that game. AG really out did himself. If the Lions can play that kind of a lock down style, they got this. It was awesome to see Hutchinson on the sideline helping out.
Rich - I will give you credit for your confession. Many of the other talking heads are eating crow today. As a long-suffering lion's fan, I can say this has been a sweet run and magical season, regardless of the outcome moving forward. Go Lions!!!!
So fired up about a week of rest and then HOME FIELD DOMINATION!!!!
This is the game of the year for me. I can't stop thinking about it LOL. 🤣🤣🤣
From crying in my friend’s bathroom at the final whistle of 0-16, to this….❤
The 2024 Detroit Lions have scored 564 points this season--which is the fourth most in NFL history. That's one Hell on an accomplishment. WOW!!!
Been a diehard since day one, dad raised me a lions fan and have been true blue last 39 years. Been there for all the deep deep lows, we’re on the other side and riding high. Such a different organization top down than we’ve ever been, GM down to the water boy, this is a complete organization all moving in the common goal of winning, just winning….lets ride!!! Next man up, doesn’t matter who, it’s a team game for a reason, anyone anytime!!
The Lions built a real power House. Hats off to them .
Those defensive stands were divine intervention…😮
May Dan never have a losing season
This is another shiny pebble to throw into the fountain of Detroit., We're back 💙💪🌍
We’re taking All comers! JG was on point to remind us, “ this feels great but it’s step 1!
