I could watch this man run the football all day long. His combination of strength, elusiveness, shiftiness, and bendiness is so so so exciting to watch.
I appreciated all those fantasy points from David this year. That and being from Detroit originally, I'm proud of how they're playing (finally!!!). I've been waiting for 65 years to see a Lions team go this far. Bravo for a season well played.
When I heard we picked up Monty off Free Agent, I knew he was gonna be a beast for us. He was averaging 5.2 yards per carry with that horrible Bears O-Line. This is exactly how I'd imagined he'd do this season. ❤
The Mighty Monty.. The World Forgot Detroit Beat Kansas City During Regular Season, Kansas City didn't want any more of Detroit. The Lions blew San Francisco out.. No need to back off, Lions had the win! Lions were Unstoppable against Niner's! Big Ups!
My favorite free agency move we’ve made so far. This guy was by far my favorite running back in his draft coming out of Iowa State. I wanted him bad and I was sad when the Bears got him. I felt like they would waste him which is exactly what happened. So happy he got a chance to get out of there and show what he can really do and I’m very happy it’s with us. I think if he got put in a better situation out of the gate he’d be looked at as maybe a top five running back in the league the past few years, if not that then top 10 for sure. Guy is a very, very, very good running back. He’s definitely my favorite style of RB.
How Frank spoke about MCDC this week, that's how I feel about DMO. Dude absolutely blew me away this year and did it consistently. Didn't really know what to expect but he's all dawg, suprisingly versatile & quick, a leader...and a Detroit Lions thru n thru. Makes sense we signed him for 3 years off rip. 4:40ish Bucs game highlight play I feel somewhat changed his trajectory, was just a touch less explosive and a little slower to get up after plays throughout the year, but that's okay because Gibbs was ready to roll. DMO thugged it out all season, didn't complain or give one excuse, and stayed productive/clutch. Yeah, he says the right things to the media but DMO forsure is a guy w/ high integrity who says and does the right things no matter who or if anyone is watching... The way DMO set the tone in San Fran I had a good feeling we were getting 1st Packers game 2.0 with 25+ carries.
Bears can't replace him because he's totally unique... I hated how he always got extra yards against the Lions - I adore it happening now for the Lions 😊
I love Monty I had him and Gibbs in all 4 of my fantasy this year I can't wait to see what they do with gibbs next year Monty is power gibbs is that pure finesse
I was concerned about letting Williams go, but then saw this dude was getting nearly 4YPC with the Bears. We needed a consistent bruiser that’ll work for the yards but also had that swift finesse as well.
Man watching this makes me realize how much of an improvement he was over Jamaal. I loved the character that was Jamaal Williams but Montgomery is just the better player.
I loved how We utilized Monte for the first half of the season more and jahmyr the second half of the year more because both of them in the playoffs were GREAT!!
I like Craig Reynolds, but I'd like to see us take a chance late in the draft on a big running back who has some speed too. One who we can move around to fullback, and RB. That way if or when Gibbs or Montgomery get hurt, we have some youth who might pop off. Teach them to catch out of the backfield so he can block, catch bail out throws, and pound the ball when neccesary. And at worst, they play special teams.
Bro I still hate it to this day. I've been a Bears fan for roughly 30 years of my life and he's the one player I hate them letting go of the most. I mean like clear as day, how, why would they let that happen. If I had to take a wild guess, just pure speculation, I'd say "attitude". Attitude as in maybe Montgomery was complaining that he didn't feel like the team and/or organization wasn't doing enough to win so they just said he can test the market after his contract. It's the only way I can't wrap my head around them letting him go. It certainly wasn't because of production. And then I also remember when he signed with DET he said something along the lines of "I'm glad to be with people who want to win". If what I'm saying is true it kind of all makes sense now, and I'm kind of pissed. For his YPC in CHI there are many little 2-4 yards runs where Montgomery was seeing first contact way too early even behind LOS, and makes the first guy miss. Those runs aren't on highlight reels because they're not as "sexy" as longer runs.
anyone criticizing DC going for 4th and 2 in NFC champ game forgets how we won games like the chargers game. running up the middle on 4th and 5. Even romo was said: no one does that.
He’s definitely RB1 again with Gibbs hurting his hamstring just like last season. I would not rush Gibbs back. It’s a LONG season. You can’t replace Gibbs’ explosiveness but Monty is awesome. Detroit is blessed to have two starting RB’s.
I could watch this man run the football all day long. His combination of strength, elusiveness, shiftiness, and bendiness is so so so exciting to watch.
Man, we miss him in Chicago 😂 Glad he’s finally getting the love he deserves
i am a pack fan, he always bring it to us. he had like no blocking in chicago. finally he has a real oline to show who he is.
He reminds of Walter Payton the way he runs - always extra yards .. a bitch to tackle and runs with fury - has the moves like Jagger too!
I agree!!! ROAR!!!
He is underrated for sure
absolute BEAST
He’s the F150 of running backs
He's the premier f250 and Gibbs is about to blossom into a mfin Ford RAPTOR
Gibbs is the Vette kid@@patrickoconnor7595
True. Always breaking down
Chicago tripped out letting this man walk ..
Yea and then they overpaid Swift who’s far worse than Monty
@@InsightfulMindsInquire you saying worse than monty like he wont truck your favorite linebacker 😅
@@ahmathmatazawar7698he won’t maybe juke
As a chicago fan over a year later, I still miss him every day
Sure glad they did!!!!!
Love his run style
Feels like he’s been here for 5 years
love this team man so sad the seasons over
Word to describe David Montgomery….Stud , tough , leader , gritty , awesome , thanks for a great season !
I appreciated all those fantasy points from David this year. That and being from Detroit originally, I'm proud of how they're playing (finally!!!). I've been waiting for 65 years to see a Lions team go this far. Bravo for a season well played.
Bears fan here. I love watching this guy play ball even if it’s with a rival. I’ll root for him wherever he goes.
He's very much appreciated in Detroit. Great player - even better person!
When I heard we picked up Monty off Free Agent, I knew he was gonna be a beast for us. He was averaging 5.2 yards per carry with that horrible Bears O-Line. This is exactly how I'd imagined he'd do this season. ❤
5.2. Are you high
Love this guy!!
I’ll never understand why they didn’t feed this man in the NFCCG…he was pounding them
The way He and our O-line compliment each other 👌🏾
I love the way D-Mo runs, so glad we have him 💪🦁
What a year it was
David Montgomery is an absolutely a beast as a speedy back
Hes not a 'speedy' back whatsoever.
You are correct about that. Gibbs is a different story!@@JK.Palomba
He’s a powerful and elusive back. Smart too. But he’s not speedy.
I said it when we signed him and I will say it again, this guy is special and I'm so glad we got him from Chicago.
I'm glad he's on our team!
loveu guys we winning sb next season
I'm honestly glad he came to Detroit. Watching him and Gibbs in the backfield is just amazing. They're both incredible backs.
SHOWTIME FOR THE LIONS
The Mighty Monty.. The World Forgot Detroit Beat Kansas City During Regular Season, Kansas City didn't want any more of Detroit. The Lions blew San Francisco out.. No need to back off, Lions had the win! Lions were Unstoppable against Niner's! Big Ups!
I will never get tired of watching Sewell move people on that Line. DAWG

Monty is a BEAST!! He’s my fav between him, Gibbs & St Brown we coming back next season!
I was horrified when the Lions parted ways with their 2 solid RB last Season. They knew what they were doing!!
How Frank spoke about MCDC this week, that's how I feel about DMO. Dude absolutely blew me away this year and did it consistently.

The way DMO set the tone in San Fran I had a good feeling we were getting 1st Packers game 2.0 with 25+ carries.
I absolutely love this! Haven't felt like this since barry
Watch this whole video again just paying attention to Penei Sewell #58 …he’s so good.potential to be he best Lion player ever
Montgomery is Holmes best FA signing. Him and Gibbs are going to terrorize the league at least for next 2 years. Love this guys heart and skills.
Steal from division rival
Bears can't replace him because he's totally unique... I hated how he always got extra yards against the Lions - I adore it happening now for the Lions 😊
Very underrated player. Runs like a tank , quite fast and very powerful. Him and Gibbs is a fearful duo for sure
God i love Monty.
I love Monty I had him and Gibbs in all 4 of my fantasy this year I can't wait to see what they do with gibbs next year Monty is power gibbs is that pure finesse
Great pickup this season! Gibbs and Monty made them the best rb duo in the NFL
That O-Line is wicked.
I was concerned about letting Williams go, but then saw this dude was getting nearly 4YPC with the Bears. We needed a consistent bruiser that’ll work for the yards but also had that swift finesse as well.
I was also concerned about losing Williams last year (especially considering all of the TDs) but as always BH knee what he was doing.
Montgomery has proven to be a beast plus he can break the big TD and have long runs as well!
11:51 11:59 77 is the BEST CENTER IN THE LEAGUE and he ALWAYS have BEEN!!
Man watching this makes me realize how much of an improvement he was over Jamaal. I loved the character that was Jamaal Williams but Montgomery is just the better player.
SIGHTS AMD SOUNDS ASSAAPPP
MONTGOMERY FOR THE PRIDE
You bet!!!!!
Monty, Gibbs, Reynolds, Vaki😮💨
Best backfield in the league🔥
I loved how We utilized Monte for the first half of the season more and jahmyr the second half of the year more because both of them in the playoffs were GREAT!!
I like Craig Reynolds, but I'd like to see us take a chance late in the draft on a big running back who has some speed too. One who we can move around to fullback, and RB.

Teach them to catch out of the backfield so he can block, catch bail out throws, and pound the ball when neccesary. And at worst, they play special teams.
Gibbs should be getting every carry
Good to have 2 different style rbs. Less wear and tear and it throws off the defense
Adrian Foster would like a word💀
As a bears fan it sucked to see this man leave glad he’s doing better with the lions
Shows proof that the bears cant handle their rbs right
Sweetness
100% Pure RB
Thanks Chicago for being dumb and letting him walk 🤣
Bro clutched for my fantasy team this year
Damn, I love Dmo.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
DMO is a dawg! Dude always falls forward.
DMo is great
Montgomery is comparable to Curtis Martin or a "poor man's" Marshall Faulk.
I remember watching Monty spank us with his hard ruthless running. Man am I glad to have him in Honolulu blue now
Ghibbs and Montogmerey are Lightning and Thunder. Chicago let him walk!?
Bro I still hate it to this day. I've been a Bears fan for roughly 30 years of my life and he's the one player I hate them letting go of the most. I mean like clear as day, how, why would they let that happen.

And all the fans were upset letting Jamaal Williams walk. I said it before the season started Montgomery was an upgrade
I liked to watch this guy with the Bears. Happy to see him with the Lions.😅
Glad he’s a lion
I call him The Bowling Ball because he makes the defense look like bowling pins the way he pounds through the hole
I like that!
anyone criticizing DC going for 4th and 2 in NFC champ game forgets how we won games like the chargers game. running up the middle on 4th and 5. Even romo was said: no one does that.
To bad there’s no top plays of him in the second half of the NFC championship game,he only got the ball ONCE!!! and st brown NOTHING!!
They should of beat the 49ers
Indeed😢
They would've if they just kept feeding Montgomery in the second half.
@JK.Palomba you're right. Idk why they stopped giving D-Mo the ball.
I HATE that bears let em walk. Detroit got a hell of a player as it showed year 1 for them
Watched Gibbs and Montgomery highlights. The blaring just blaring takeaway is LaPorta is a blocking TE.
And more
I feel like Jamo loves blocking him for Monty 😁
Gibbs or Montgomery who’s better?
The one wearing cleats
It doesn't matter because we have them both and they compliment each other amazingly.
wanna hear from brad and sheila
He’s definitely RB1 again with Gibbs hurting his hamstring just like last season. I would not rush Gibbs back. It’s a LONG season. You can’t replace Gibbs’ explosiveness but Monty is awesome. Detroit is blessed to have two starting RB’s.
Oh yeah - that offensive line was mauling people all season but they had some juice early in the year.
The Bears are who we thought they were!
If he stays he could beat Hanson(kicker) for most points scored by a Lion …..
Whos better tho Gibbs or Montgomery
When he was a bear I hated him now I hope he stays till he retires
First
Sadly those Green and Yellow bastages got payback on thanksgiving
Fist
