Lions fan my heart says Lions , my head says bet the over. Get ready for a great crazy game
Minnesota fan, love my purple. This game will be a whopper. Really don't know which way this goes. I have big respect for Detroit.
Flores made Rodgers look confused?...Rodgers is confused. He has been for years.
😂
The Lions are goonna win. Handing Minnesota their first "L" and taking control of the NFCN
Comparing last years Vikings defense to this years is a big mistake…
You think the lions just sat around during the offseason and didn’t get better? You scared
@@joeyt43 lol scared of what? An inferior team? Definitely not. Yall will have a good battle for second place with GB tho ✌️
@@jaredpribyl haha, we will see Sunday. Sam Arnold is straight ass. You haven’t seen a running game yet. Good luck.
Vikings are a really good team but y'all gonna lose 38-28 @@jaredpribyl
@@joeyt43what improvements happened? Lions lost to the Buccaneers😂 just cause Lions made it to the playoff on an injured Vikings team last year. All of a sudden Lions think they’re hot shots haven’t even make it to the Super Bowl.
Last year’s Lions offense destroyed Vikings defense. The clue here is LAST YEAR. This year’s Vikings Defense is A LOT better than last year’s. We’ll find out who’s better than who after the game.
Yea Lions Defense is a lot better than last year LOL
Vikings had no QB last year again lions...
Nick Mullens passed for 400 yds. Had a bunch of picks, but was able to move the ball well. It doesn't matter. The Lions are gonna win
Different team guys. 9 new starters on the Vikings. Nick Mullens was the QB, no RB, 6 new starters on D.
Different team for the lions also LOL Secondary is much better!!
Don't want you picking my Vikings because you're not convinced they're good and you can't see it. You're picking them because you're tired of being berated by Vikings fans

The Vikings have 7 new starters on defense in 2023. Sorry, you guys are gonna have to do some kind of actual research. --or just look at the roster.
Would you predict the Redskins base on last year's roster?
You just miss the part where they said they were better this year?
That last 10 minutes where they glaze the Vikings must have missed that
The most upsetting aspect of either team could be the most decisive: which team can cause the other team to have more pass interference / defensive holding calls. Arnold having a game like he had vs the Cowboys/Seahawks is a Lions win. Vikings making him the player he was the first two weeks is a win for them.
28-17 VIKINGS
As a Lions fan I’m rooting for the Vikings! Skol baby ( raawr ) !
You can't root for the enemy and call yourself a fan at the same time😂
I like my crippled Lions to win 31-20
Lions 31 - Vikings 24
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I could see that
Teams within the same division really know one another. Goff knows the Flores defenses really well compared to most other QBs that have not faced those fronts and looks nearly as often. One QB who has owned Brian Flores over the years has been Josh Allen who routinely torched the Dolphins when Flores was the head coach from 2019-2021. Aaron Rodgers had never faced a Brian Flores defensive unit until that London game a couple of weeks ago. It should be a very interesting chess match with a lot of very skilled players going at it. Thanks for interesting segment!
Not this one though this is different
Vikings 19 - lions 16
As a Vikings fan, I am MAD AT STEVE for picking the Vikings to win. VERY ANGRY
Facts: Lions have only beat sub-par .500 teams. The only team above .500 was the Bucs, and the Lions lost (L) this year, not last year. Vikings have not lost to include beating winning ball clubs (Texans & Packers). I hope the Lions do compare the Vikings' defense to last years and see where that goes. All of our outstanding receivers will be playing (Jefferson, Addison, Nailor, and Hockenson). The way the Vikings are different this year is a total team approach with new key players that are thriving together cohesively and in synch. I have watched them lose momentum in two games, but overcame it. Vikings will not roll over at home like the Cowboys. The Cowboys rolled over for the Saints at home as well, and they're a losing ball club. Vikings win! SKOL!!!!
I can really see the lions with alot of three and outs if they can't get stops next week.Real challenge for two power house offenses.
Ben Johnson vs Flores is a chess game. It's a game between Magnus Carlsen and Kim Kardashian. #Blowout
Vikings had no QB the last half of last year and no Jefferson half the year. And have massively upgraded the Def. You’ll be seeing a different team this year. If the Vikings have Hock and Jones, even with Blake Cashman out, the Vikings will dominate.
Most teams that played the Lions this season become one-dimensional because they can't run the ball against them the Vikings also has a good D line but the Lions has a great O line this should be an interesting good one
Lions win
31-17 Vikings. This seems like it should be a good game but could get out of hand quick for the kitties.
Bruh, the Lions offense destroyed Flores offense last year 2 games in 3 weeks. Blitz Goff at your own pearl.
When the Vikings were on their 4th string QB and not going to be able to make a playoff run so they tanked to draft a QB?
It’s a different offense and you can’t run against the Vikings
Last year has nothing to do with now.
The difference between who they run blitz and the lions is the O-line Detroit has potentially one of the best o-lines in the league if not the best
Not typical blitz so hard to say anything at all. Nothing to compare to last year as both teams and on both sides of the ball are different. A great game to watch!
12:26 we heard the same thing about cj against the blitz.
really would have liked to see the lions at full str without hutch and possibly carlton davis its going to be tough on the defensive side for my lions
30-14 VIKINGS
Talking smack on the lions again. Last time you guys did that was about Goff and the 2 INTs u ou predicted was the game he went 18-18 with 2 TDs and a near perfect passer rating!
Did the upset Viking fans in the comments not watch past the first 2 minutes?
You expect them to have an attention span long enough to watch that long?
Literally these guys hate the lions and have lmao
@@NA-bi2lyright!!! Who listens to these two clowns that long
Lions are overrated…. From your neighborhood Bear fan!
They're not too bright. Cut the short bus kids some slack.
Detroit wins by 50 to 21 Vikings but Detroit must stay with the running game and release the two headed dragons David Montgomery and Jamir Gibbs release the two headed dragons😂😂
Wow! Talk about unrealistic lol
The lions won’t be able to run on the Vikings
Yes they will, 49ers ran on them lions will be even more successful
@@ZackGittens the Vikings are number 2 in rush defense the lions are 3
@@AustinNickolaus-m2r Viking have gotten up early in most of their games teams have had to pass on them, that why their pass defense is ranked so badly, there not gonna get off to a big lead on Detroit
@@ZackGittens how not? Detroit has 0 pass rush. Hutch is. 90 snap count guy never leaves the field he helps in the run and pass rush in fact nobody else on that line can generate pressure without hutch most times if they get a sack it comes from the pressure that hutch generated and they haven’t traded for anyone. Detroit has needed DE ho for years and they signed cheap Davenport and he’s out for the season they have 0 pass rush Darnold is going to have time plus the lions have the most PI calls because of how they are taught JJ made maybe the best CB in the league in sauce look like a child what’s going to happen against Arnold? And the other CB is injured he can’t keel up with jk
@@AustinNickolaus-m2r because they wont be able to stop the lions, the can survive without hutch they got great interior defenders that can create pressure and they can dial up more blitzes, it gonna be harder to get pressure without hutch but they'll blitz more guys, if aaron jones doesn't play viking are gonna struggle on offense and even if hes does they won't be able to get the run game going lots of third and longs
Everyone is picking Lions.
Why are Vikings favourites?
Lions are playing for Hutch. The defense will be ready.
Vikings fans when Jared Goff stats vs Flores last year come up: WERE DIFFERENT!
Also vikings fans: we cooked that secondary (completely new corners) last year!
Let’s be honest the current Lions secondary hasn’t been otherworldly
@@tristenvarney8777 whats that have to do with last year its completely different corners (same excuse heard for the other point)
Interesting how folks act like Aaron Glenn is chopped liver.
The bottom line is the Vikings still start Josh Metellus. Any team that starts that clown sucks (despite the teams fluke over performance thus far, reality is bound to set in)
The lions should have went to the superbowl last year. But your coach made some bad situational calls. I think that happens in this game. Lions head coach gets too aggressive and leaves points on the table resulting in a loss
Lions 47 Vikings 14
hahahaha these clowns comparing last years defense with this year. He did what he could without BFO guys, now he does and can play the scheme as designed. Last years scheme was a shell of what it could be that he tried to hide by over blitzing. Two keep ignoring that the lions barely beat a back up qb that threw for a ton of yards. hahahaha ok keep banking on gabage like that instead of looking at this year since last year does not translate at all. Clowns comparing apples to oranges and think they making a point haha
And you as a clown should know that the Lions had two key rookies and Montgomery trying to learn the playbook on offense. They didn't even come close to the whole playbook and went to the NFC Championship. Flores has the perfect gimmick defense until it runs into the one offense that will force him to play straight up or get blown out.
You are bringing up lions D from last year... you sre just as guilty
if we're talking about last year (for some reason), why dont we mention nick mullens throwing for 400 yds in each game against the lions lmao
Don’t forget to mention that the Lions were absolutely decimated in a secondary last year and we’re starting people that worked at McDonald’s…😉

Ask quite possibly the greatest Green Bay packer fan in the history of Green Bay packer fans I may be a little biased but I hope they both lose
Go Pack Go
Calling the packers points “garbage time points” is crazy. They lost by 2 points lol
You obviously don't know the meaning of garbage time😅
@@Stacked3403 it’s when you score points even though the game is out of reach, how is making the game a 1 possession game with time still left garbage time? Not only a 1 possession game but a game where a field goal gives you the lead. I’m not saying it’s likely they would’ve won but teams have won in more improbable situations. it’s not like it was 45-0 and then they put up 2 touchdown with 8 minutes left.
Definitionally, they were garbage time points, the Vikings had over an 80% chance to win the entire 4th quarter.
@@Sillygatorthe definition of garbage time is when one team has at least an 80% chance to win, which was the case the entire 4th quarter (and most of the game).
@@westb1028 I’m sure you found a website that told you or a friend told you that 80 percent rule. I’m sure if you looked it up in Webster it wouldn’t say that. Also just cause a team has an 80% chance to loose doesn’t mean points they score are garbage points. If both teams have strong defenses and it’s 13-3 entering the 4th one team might have an 80% chance to win but that doesn’t mean that the other team scoring would be garbage points.
Rogers is washed up.
🦁🦁🦁
Detroit wins 31-21, sorry there's just no answer for our offense
No answer but they could only put up 20 points against the Cardinals and 16 against Tampa?
It'll be a great test for Brian Flores' defense
I see a 34-17 vikings win😂, lions offense play trash defense for the pass 2 week
Sober up
@@PuckerPunchHDno answer except for the clear and obvious ones*
In all seriousness, I think the Lions do pose the greatest challenge the Vikings have seen all year and with Blake Cashman unlikely to play, they could be a real problem. That being said, they’re 2-0 coming out of their bye in two years under KOC (obviously an uninspiring win against the Raiders last year, but they started Josh Dobbs and benched him for Nick Mullens, so they’ve clearly upgraded this season at that position). This defense is so much better than they were last year, especially by the end of the year where Minnesota was pretty well toast in the playoff race. I think Detroit will be able to score points, but I don’t have a lot of faith in their defense without Hutchinson in a crazy environment. If TJ Hockenson and Aaron Jones can go, I’m not sure this game is close. I’ll take my chances that one of them play and say 31-24 Vikings
I hope the Vikings win I’m tired of the lions
Lions 33 Vikings 21
Tired of hearing about Flores.. dude is literally been mid tier defensive coordinator his entire career.. right now the Vikings defensive ypg isn't even top 15.. if that's "cutting edge" like these two keep talking about the Vikings D would be a top 5 D.. they aren't.. also.. they say last year, that maybe Ben Johnson had all year to figure out the defensive scheme.. wouldn't that mean Flores had all year to see the Lions offensive scheme and STILL with his godlike talent at d-coordinator couldn't stop them? These two and all of media needs to get off the Flores is top tier trash and come back to reality
Nah Ben Johnson is a madd scientist,Flores weak bliz zone package has too many whole offencely minne has no run game if Jones plays or not ,an don't put acker in he will fumble,lions 27-17
