As a decades long Lions fan, I am making the rounds to hear all the sports pundits and doubters to see what thy gonna say now. I am truly loving this shit!!! LMAO!!!! Detroit = GRIT NATION BABY!!
@ It does feel weird. I’ve never been excited about the 1 seed teams having a bye and gather some rust, but if there’s ever been a team that needs it, it’s this one.
4-18-1 at the start and 35-10 since. Thats what a MISSION looks like. Nothing is guaranteed but as a kid who attended games with his dad in the 60s at Tiger Stadium, this team is like no other I've watched. WIth the defense showing what they were capable of, you have to know there is no one they can't beat.
Even after the 2nd goff interception I told people he'd dial in like usual and cook the rest of the game, and he did just that. Anzalone being back was huge too. He's been essentially the QB on defense when he's played this year and played AND led the defense crazy well for his first game back
@@jamesbroomfield7799 right on! Anzalone made such a difference. Only 3 field goals allowed to a surging team in the biggest NFC game of the year. Cheers!
It seems like city people forget that just as many people don't live in big cities. The entire state of Michigan is Grit. The entire state of Michigan has been waiting decades for this.
Lions fan here. My theory is that AG used vanilla defense against the forty winers to trick the next team to underestimate us in to thinking we suck. It looks as though we can get pressure easily. We need to worry about the next game we play. Love your video
Wow I actually agreed with Colin. However Colin picked the Vikings to win They didn’t. 2:45 yes to your point. Only the media doesn’t know what the Lions are all about.
Anzalone was a huge boost for this defense. After Hutch he was the nest emotional leader and his presence on the field allowed for everyone else to trust their assignments.
They look ripe for a mini dynasty at the least. They are soooo stocked with young talent. Salary cap is gonna catch up in a couple of years when all the rookie contracts get changed for big boy contracts.
The new talking head narrative is going to be "Minnesota beat themselves/Darnold turned into a pumpkin." That way, they can avoid saying they were wrong about the injury narrative, even though Lions fans stated to everyone that getting people like Anzalone back would make the defense more like it did at the beginning of the year. It wasn't the Lions red zone defense (which started off 1/2 this year), it was Darnold missing open people (which had nothing to do with the pressure, of course).
As a diehard lions fan, I’ll say I’m not surprised we won, but I never would’ve expected us holding them to 9 points. It ruined my parlay but I was going crazy.
This is why our Detroit Lions are the best team in the NFL, we played through all of the injuries and won 11 games in a row with as many as 22 players on IR. It’s not about the record determining which team is the best, it’s the circumstances in which you play through and continue to win when the odds say that you shouldn’t be winning in this situation. Just look at the 49’s when Aiuk and Caffery went down, the offense slowed down quite a bit, and the lost a few players on defense and they didn’t compete well
Nick Wright has had some of the worst NFC north takes in sports media this year. He’ll be extra salty because of the praise the lions are getting today, so he’ll go back to trolling Goff.
I refuse to listen to Nick wrong. The guy has never played football. Not sure why he got a job as a commentor. His knowledge is zero and has nothing good to add, plus I never learn anything from him.
I think a lot of head coaches are getting fired this season because the fact that despite 13 defensive players on IR they went 15-2 no head coach is ever getting the injury excuse for losing ever again unless they lost their starting QB for the year
I think it's total bullshit that people are trying to shit on Sam instead of saying that the Lions D actually was good. This is the same Lions that were top 3 in Redzone defense on November 28th when they played the Bears and everyone kept saying the Lions weren't good because they didn't blowout a Bears team that was also top 3 redzone defense at the time (until they fired the coach after the game. 😂) We get just one of those players back and look at the difference. Instead, everyone is going to glaze how bad Sam is even though those same people glazed how good he was just 3 days ago. 🙄
Half of us fans can’t even claim we were here from the beginning of this era. I remember a lot of fans hating on MCDC. I held faith from the beginning. After being bad for so long and looking towards next season I became a draft junkie and from the moment BH got on the clock I saw what I needed to see. MCDC crying because we lost by a FG is all I needed to see. I knew these guys were different. I don’t see any of the comments from the fans that didn’t believe. If I was one of them I would be proud to say I didn’t see this happening.
What I thought was really interesting about the game last night is how much MCDC's approach impact O'Connell's decision making. I would bet good money that had that came been the Vikings vs Packers, O'Connell kicks those field goals when they got down there close. However, he KNOWS that MCDC will absolutely go for it in the same circumstances. O'Connell has to go for it to "keep pace". You've seen it else where during this season, that the opposing coach starts taking risks that they would not normally do (and their teams aren't prepared for) because they know the other side won't flinch and will go for it. I think we're seeing a revolution in football in real time.
"This game was only a surprise to the people who don't know the Detroit Lions" Wise words. As for Colin, I think he was mad that the Lions have consistently nibbled on his kneecaps on his takes. Yeah, yeah...he's a Vikings fan and will favour the team. I get the bias, but trying to make wine out of sour grapes is only get you vinegar. The Vikings were trying to be the Lions and the Lions won the minute they stepped on the field.
I think the stat is Jefferson and Addison were targeted 15 times, yet only had 4 receptions for 54 yards. Crazy lockdown D from Amik and Arnold. Sucks that TA was playing his best game in a Lions uniform just to get hurt.
@ "after the fact"?? Are you high? Lions have been the best team all year. Us lions fans knew it and most of America too. Colin is the "after the fact"
Didn’t Colin say we need to “learn how to play like winners” or some shit like that? Now he loves what we’re about? This guy switches up faster than anyone I’ve ever seen
Hey Colin. How's that crow taste? Smh lol. Colin was praising Minnesota for beating scrub teams by 6 points and 4 points etc but when Detroit blows scrubs out by 40 points it doesn't prove anything because they played a bad team smh. Remember all that Colin. Minnesota never beat any really good teams. They beat green Bay and Houston. Those are probably the best teams they played. They lost to Detroit twice and keep in mind, that score last night should've been 42 to 9. Even the first game they played, the score was deceiving because Detroit was winning most the Game by around 10 or more points and Minnesota came back last minute with the fumble for td. Detroit end up winning by last minute fg but they should've won by at least 10 points in that game. So I didn't get how everyone was praising Minnesota and doubting Detroit
So much criticism of the Lion's because they go for it on 4th down, but look at the teams they play against who try to do the same thing, unsuccessfully. Hold our beer.😊
Julian will not say Sam Darnold played bad missed throws, and was plain not good, just wanna give the Lions defense praise but won’t talk about Darnold against the blitz was great all year… smh
I hate to tell you you did not get rid of that, as soon as the lions win a close game don’t be right back on that train talking about we win because we injured. I just can’t wait until that candle is holding up that trophy.
He can kick rocks just like the rest of America who are waiting to jump on the Detroit Lions being "America's team" boat. 🤨 Scapegoats the lot of em! 🫤 America's team are the Dallas Cowboys and Detroit detest America's team. 😂😂😂 Thank you for the love but stay clear of the Lions den. Detroit vs. Everybody! ❤🦁❤
Its funny they have teams acting like shooter mcgavin when happy was winning with his unorthodox style he started to copy his swing but theres only 1 happy .thats what the other teams are doing going for it without perfecting it its a big advantage for the lions at this point .he has great teams second guessing there who scheme.
Cowherd is not only a chameleon but he reeks of the "Monday Morning QB" type of analysis. He evaluates too many things and sports based on the market popularity. He clearly hasn't seen the Lions which for a nation sportscaster is embarrassing. This was not out of the ordinary for the Lions.
Pretty amazing how Detroit's injured defensive players make QB's like Brock Purdy and Sam Darnold look totally confused and average. No more FRANCHISE $$ contract extensions for these guys anymore. They both were made to look like backups. DETROIT REPRESENT!!!!!
Funny how confident they were after the media started praising them 3 weeks ago. All the fans were coming out of the woodwork acting like they already won. BAHAHAHAHAH. They’re still a great team, but this Lions team is different.
@@MrHunterbg Yep, the media blew their skirts up with all the hype, their heads got way to big. They celebrated after they beat GB like they won the Super Bowl. Reality punched them in the face yesterday.
Colin you literally picked Minnesota 🤦♂️
Last week Colin put the lions below the Vikings and Eagles 😂.
You don’t get to jump on the band wagon now it’s too late.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
We not the Eagles and Vikings are different 😂😂😂The Eagles are completely different
@@stanleyterrell717 your right we are not the eagles, we have more wins!
Colin is a chameleon. Last week he fellated Love and Darnold to completion, now he is giving the Lions praise.
😂😂😂lo l so true…and I love Colin
He's a clown
True
That’s the media for you
🤡
As a decades long Lions fan, I am making the rounds to hear all the sports pundits and doubters to see what thy gonna say now. I am truly loving this shit!!! LMAO!!!! Detroit = GRIT NATION BABY!!
I know exactly how you feel.
It’s early, but I still get chills whenever I hear Lions and Ring in the same sentence
@88keysLA I'm still lost at what to even think Wildcard round. Not having a game and still being in the playoffs is something I haven't felt since 92.
@ It does feel weird. I’ve never been excited about the 1 seed teams having a bye and gather some rust, but if there’s ever been a team that needs it, it’s this one.
I’m with you. The flip floppers.
I love how the same national media that counted them out against the vikings are the same ones saying they never had a doubt today
I can’t wait for the Sam Darnold Pumpkin mode from Nick Wright 😂
he’s also gotta eat shit for all his lions hating
Right, because the Lions D couldn't have possibly been good with the way they all glazed the Vikings offense. 🙄
I was just looking for his comments. Of course the Tiny Tim looking mfr is hiding!😂
Purdy played better against the Lions
4-18-1 at the start and 35-10 since. Thats what a MISSION looks like. Nothing is guaranteed but as a kid who attended games with his dad in the 60s at Tiger Stadium, this team is like no other I've watched. WIth the defense showing what they were capable of, you have to know there is no one they can't beat.
Coward is almost as annoying as Nick Wright.
Not a chance
he was ready to give darnold 1 billion dollars last monday
Seriously lol
He really said Darnold over Purdy😂
@@danielafforo9262fucking wild huh.
Even after the 2nd goff interception I told people he'd dial in like usual and cook the rest of the game, and he did just that. Anzalone being back was huge too. He's been essentially the QB on defense when he's played this year and played AND led the defense crazy well for his first game back
Crazy how Anzo being back calmed the whole defense down and gave them that confidence they needed.
@@jamesbroomfield7799 right on! Anzalone made such a difference. Only 3 field goals allowed to a surging team in the biggest NFC game of the year. Cheers!
@jamesbroomfield7799 oh for sure! I was worried the Jefferson was gonna torch us but we played the air game well shockingly.
Was waiting on this video 😂
I wasn’t been there and done that 💩……#DetroitvsEverybody
It seems like city people forget that just as many people don't live in big cities. The entire state of Michigan is Grit. The entire state of Michigan has been waiting decades for this.
We are the Truth!! HEAD COACH DC and our Team is what Detroit is!!! We may get knocked down but will never give up!!
Lions fan here. My theory is that AG used vanilla defense against the forty winers to trick the next team to underestimate us in to thinking we suck. It looks as though we can get pressure easily. We need to worry about the next game we play. Love your video
That’s exactly what I thought, too. Treated it like a preseason game to try out some players and formations.
Colin also picked the Packers to be the best team in the NFC not that long ago. Go Lions! Not many so-called experts picked the Lions to win.
Great videos. Go Lions Go!!!!
Wow I actually agreed with Colin. However Colin picked the Vikings to win They didn’t. 2:45 yes to your point. Only the media doesn’t know what the Lions are all about.
AG has been amazing. While sitting in his lazy boy he was being a awesome DC.
I’m excited for “speak for yourself” today
Very true this game is only a shock. The people that don’t know the lions.
Anzalone was a huge boost for this defense. After Hutch he was the nest emotional leader and his presence on the field allowed for everyone else to trust their assignments.
First game that Hutch had been on the sideline helped too. Just being a leader out there.
He's the captain
I’m a Lions fan and didn’t see this coming. I’m so proud to be a Lions fan also !!!!!!
Colin is out of touch. I’m from Michigan. My friends sent me the kneecap video when it happened and we were all hype about it
💯
Colin said it was “depressing” that Goff was being sent to Detroit. Nobody believed in the Lions except us lifelong fans. We could just tell.
Lions will be unstoppable next year.
They look ripe for a mini dynasty at the least. They are soooo stocked with young talent. Salary cap is gonna catch up in a couple of years when all the rookie contracts get changed for big boy contracts.
They are ahead of the cap with McNeil Goff st brown and penni
They not beating the Eagles period ,you talking crazy😂😂 😂
Hmmm…. Love your optimism.
Total lions fan here. But departures of Ben Johnson and AG will be severe setback to Dan & the team.
@@stanleyterrell717bring it. Eagles might lose this weekend and then it’s cry eagles cry !!!!!

I really appreciate your videos Bro
Thank you so much! I appreciate it!
Finally got me to subscribe lol. Watched 100 of your videos and i appreciate your takes.
Haha thank you so much! Anything change in this video?
As a diehard lions fan, I’ll say I’m not surprised we won, but I never would’ve expected us holding them to 9 points. It ruined my parlay but I was going crazy.
Hahah totally fair!
Bills vs Lions for the SB
Colin is a snake in the grass. Keep your fair weather takes.
The way the Vikings had been playing I felt this game would be very close. The lions are just hungrier for the Super Bowl.

Don’t like the thumbnail baiting me into thinking this is Colin’s video. Shady marketing tactic.
How is the media shocked. The evidence has been there all year. Lions best team in the league
Gotta love after-the-fact analysts like you
@ "after the fact"?? Are you high? Lions have been the best team all year. Us lions fans knew it and most of America too. Colin is the "after the fact"

darnold started seeing ghosts again !
Pffft Colin Cowpile. Go Lions!
Colin and his kneecaps😅
Poor Colin mocked and ridiculed and made fun of because he believes Darnold is elite. After that performance guess he understands why.
Same old media..
It’s annoying how you’re a professional hater. Figure out your own things instead of piggybacking off everyone else
You talking about Colin right ???
What's the expression... full of it😂
Vikings will be 1 and done i love my vikes but their done 😢
I’m sure you weren’t thinking that before they played last night… Keep that same energy you probably had…..
He can kick rocks just like the rest of America who are waiting to jump on the Detroit Lions being "America's team" boat. 🤨

Colin has been hating on the Lions this entire season. He's just a troII who's always engagement farming.
A bunch of yapping from colin. Darnold aint getting paid my friend . This was a case keenum story

They can't stop the tush push
And they can't stop the fear dwelling inside...it's coming...OUT soon!

This guy is a joke he picked min to win this game
He has to pick one winner, right? Try doing it
Colin is full of crap
🥱🌽🌽
Lions will fall in the playoffs
You mean like deer in the headlights Darnold who couldn't hit the broad side of a barn? Yeah ok! 😂😂😂😂
@JoeCooper-b4t It's gonna be a different story next time around. Philly or Minnesota will send them home with their tails between their legs
I predicted Darnold was un athletic and his trying to keep plays alive would cause him pain. Same as purdy.
Darnold has been very athletic.
Minnesota fans 😂 9 points 😂😂😂😂😂😂 dont ever think u come in Ford Field playoff mode playing an talking shit we destroyed yall ass
