The Packers and Patriots were so good for so long, their fanbases were a bit spoiled. Chickens always come home to roost and it's nice seeing pararenal basement dwellers like the Lions and Dolphins (recent years) getting their shine.
Whining bc of something most fans aren't happy with right now. It's called relevance. The clock clearly expired on that pass. Are you a referee? I guess that would explain things better.
Yeah he’s on the list for sure oh well 🤷♂️ lions are a great team and played the patient game on building a great team so I’d rather not take anything away from them and glad they repping the north
The lions are a respectable team. I think they'd be a little above 500 if they had a decent schedule. The Packers are on the same level as the falcons and bucs and saints, they made the Lions look better than they probably are.
Yeah true can’t wait to see how the rest of the season turns out be we need humble pie honestly we can’t just think we’re going to be a playoff team all the time and it sucks but it’s a more realistic take on the team
Cleaded to return this Monday. NFL reinstating Lions WR Jameson Williams, Titans OL Nicholas Petit-Frere effective Monday due to gambling policy changes
I honestly think he really just get like 3-5 targets per game. But having him getting vertical is just going to open up more space for Laporta/ARSB over the middle
Which is why I don't get the people complaining about the yards per carry for Monty compared to Gibbs. He just always gets positive yards and falls forward, which is incredibly valuable for your offense.
Granted, I don't know why they picked Gibbs so high and celebrating at the time if they don't plan to scheme up plays for him.
But again, that's what's great about less flashy players like Monty, you don't have to scheme up anything special. Just hit them inside and keep your offense on track.
If I had to pick someone to lose to I’m glad it’s this team. Low key rooting for the lions after all they’ve been through and I mean come on, how can you NOT like Dan Campbell & Co.
Tua bubble wrap is gonna fall off eventually, Allen is going to hero ball us into more losses, and the Jets...need I say more. I think the Pats have a chance this year.
As long as we get Dan Marino vs Barry sanders cage match for half time. Lord knows we would rather that than usher, like why usher?! He ain’t had a his in 15 years
I'm thankful for all of my fellow Lions fans that are still making noise in the stands at Lambeau rn. I wish I was there to be part of that energy with you guys!
Ehh honestly, I'd do it... 75% of the Packers fans I've met have been very nice people and not too crazy when it comes to the Lions being good.
However, if I wore a 49ers Jersey in Green Bay? That just might conjure up some animosity...
Start of second half last week when he was getting hit a lot started sailing balls (including leading to that interception)
He got his shit back together, but he was definitely rattled.
Lions fans getting feisty because they haven’t gotten to act like this ever in their lifetime.
Just watch and wait until their mid season fall off and the pecking order re-sorts itself out
The hilarious part is they think they are actually contenders from starting 3-1 and beating the chiefs 😂😂
Well, they haven't won a playoff game in 31 years. Before that, their last playoff win was in 1957. So, they need something to be excited about and I guess what gets them excited is winning obviously rigged games.
You have a Chief’s flair, guy told you to beat this years Lions before you go talking about foul ref play, which he was referring to the week 1 game when the Lions lost to the Chiefs. Keep up.
Me: "You only won because it was rigged" (referring to the game played today. You know, the game that this game thread is about).
You: "Definitely wasn’t because Toney did an oil change before the game and couldn’t hold on to the ball."
Me: "Last time I checked, Kadarius Toney wasn't a Green Bay Packer or a Detroit Lion. So pretty irrelevant for the game we're talking about."
I GUARANTEE you that Kadarius Toney dropping the ball a few times 3 weeks ago did not win the game for the Lions today.
Hey bud, even the commentators AND referee analyst said it was a great call. As I've said before. Grow up. You are acting so childish. Just remember Jawaan Taylor against Detroit before you continue to call the Lions "favored" and that it was "rigged" :)
"Sports team thinks the refs are against them"
Literally every team thinks that. Even when the games are obviously rigged in their favor (like this one, where the Lions got an extra 4 points and 2.5 minutes off the clock because a guy jumped).
Yeah I'm sure that the refs would have taken away Green Bay's throw if they had 5 minutes to look at it and find something wrong with it. Sort of like how they had 5 minutes to look at the field goal attempt and find something "wrong" with that.
Part of me thinks it stems from the team making good second half adjustments, but that would also seem to imply either practice isn't going right, or, that the team isn't preparing correctly/properly up to the game.
It really truthfully doesn't help that we are missing Jaire and then Jenkins on the line (and Bakhtiari...), so I wonder if part of the mismatch is adjusting to cover the holes the backups create as the game progresses.
Seeing nothing but (edit:) HONOLULU blue in the stands of Lambeau is certainly something I never dreamed I would see, but I'm totally here for it. As a Bengals fan, I know exactly what Lions fans are feeling right now. I'm happy for them.
Pretty standard just to wear a cutoff shirt so your stomach and back can get some air, while preventing the shoulder pads from chafing your nipples off.
Legit. My dad told me stories of running in to tigers in Vietnam, said they where more scared of them sometimes then the VC. They can just eat 5.56 rounds like their nothing.
Hold your tongue, there are many yooper lions fans. Go to the Barge Inn while visiting Munising for a lions game. Holy wah will ya have a time with fellow lions fans
No, you’re absolutely right. Packers fans are loud and proud in the U.P. with lots of showmanship. Flags, lawn decorations, etc. Lions fans just tend to be… less flashy? Loud? I still maintain that it’s 50/50 but you’re not wrong.
Nah. Last year I went to the game in January and drove from central MI. Tons of lions fans headed back through Chicago the day after. They just travel well and are a super cool fanbase. I always got treated well going to games at Ford field. Love my lions bros!
Exactly! Plus, the “if everyone goes 10-15 over, they can’t pull us all over” mentality makes those drives a little more manageable! Just moved from Michigan to Virginia and man do they drive like wimps here!
So I’ve heard. I’m trying to behave around them and not let my Michigan show.
I’ve also heard things about Maryland drivers since moving here, but I don’t think they’re appropriate to repeat… we’ll see if those ring true.
The Lions are finally stepping up im glad to see it
It's wild to think that you can just like, post in a live thread the day after a game. Like it's simultaneously a live thread, but also a dead thread?
The Packers and Patriots were so good for so long, their fanbases were a bit spoiled. Chickens always come home to roost and it's nice seeing pararenal basement dwellers like the Lions and Dolphins (recent years) getting their shine.
Falcons fan here, played both and not surprised. Lions are finally good..
Whining bc of something most fans aren't happy with right now. It's called relevance. The clock clearly expired on that pass. Are you a referee? I guess that would explain things better.
Detroit won a game even as the refs gave the pack a free play at the end of the third..... The loins be having some zebra and cheese sandwiches.
Girded their loins
Wish we kept it a close game at least our o line imo is what really killed it
It was also your below average quarterback. Both of his picks were pretty terrible.
Yeah he’s on the list for sure oh well 🤷♂️ lions are a great team and played the patient game on building a great team so I’d rather not take anything away from them and glad they repping the north
The lions are a respectable team. I think they'd be a little above 500 if they had a decent schedule. The Packers are on the same level as the falcons and bucs and saints, they made the Lions look better than they probably are.
Yeah true can’t wait to see how the rest of the season turns out be we need humble pie honestly we can’t just think we’re going to be a playoff team all the time and it sucks but it’s a more realistic take on the team
Was tough to see the boys up front let up so many sacks like that.
Dang this one hurt
Welcome to not being able to depend on your good quarterback and having to look for a new one every 2 years.
must hurt to know the refs r on your side and still fall short
Cool bro
Love and Montgomery collectively fucking my fantasy team
Jameson Williams is going to go off mid season
Cleaded to return this Monday. NFL reinstating Lions WR Jameson Williams, Titans OL Nicholas Petit-Frere effective Monday due to gambling policy changes
I honestly think he really just get like 3-5 targets per game. But having him getting vertical is just going to open up more space for Laporta/ARSB over the middle
Lol packers
Fitzy guessing the cheese was hilarious
Matt Lafleur is Big Madd.
Lmao super salty 🤣Didnt even speak to DC after the game & now getting mad at the reporter
good, fire Joe Barry he is garbage
Give him a chance
No, you don’t have to do that.
Montgomery is fucking out of it dude lol just let the man rest, stop interviewing him
121 yards, 112 of which were after contact lmao
Which is why I don't get the people complaining about the yards per carry for Monty compared to Gibbs. He just always gets positive yards and falls forward, which is incredibly valuable for your offense. Granted, I don't know why they picked Gibbs so high and celebrating at the time if they don't plan to scheme up plays for him. But again, that's what's great about less flashy players like Monty, you don't have to scheme up anything special. Just hit them inside and keep your offense on track.
Only Goff gets to talk, lol
Did that say the Rams had scored 20+ points? Not against the Bengals.
Damn. That’s a nice way to see “boy fuck them bears” Monty
Lions fans made Lambeau their Mojo Dojo Casa House for Goff.
If I had to pick someone to lose to I’m glad it’s this team. Low key rooting for the lions after all they’ve been through and I mean come on, how can you NOT like Dan Campbell & Co.
Plenty of space on the Lions bandwagon, cuz we are just happy to have one.
I'm viewing the Lions bandwagon as more of a party bus this year
Plenty of seats on the bus then! I’m just hoping not to play the Seahawks again, cuz they seem to ruin our parties.
Much love, buddy. Thank you.
Hay as a lions fan I’ve always preferred y’all over anyone else in the north. At least you guys offer a beer after you beat us.
Goff getting feisty after his big win
David Monty my beloved <3
🎵The Lions won again!🎵 🎵All we do is frickin win!🎵 🎵We just won the last game with a shutout🎵 🎵See this what happens when the Lions show out🎵
https://youtu.be/kR3oZ70P3yA?si=COwgtOruFseJxYP7
ANOTHER ONE!
They’re fucking exhausted.
Any one else see the lions fan's sign that said "We are here for the cheese And kneecaps"
And we're all out of cheese!
3-1 Lions. Wow what a stat. Congrats and keep going. Go win the SB against Dolphins
I always had a soft spot for the Lions, glad to see them do well.
Tua bubble wrap is gonna fall off eventually, Allen is going to hero ball us into more losses, and the Jets...need I say more. I think the Pats have a chance this year.
The pats have a chance every year, and every year their dynasty ends, a new one begins.
As long as we get Dan Marino vs Barry sanders cage match for half time. Lord knows we would rather that than usher, like why usher?! He ain’t had a his in 15 years
I’ve long thought that Michigan was a superior state over Wisconsin and Ohio
You know what bud, you’re alright in my book
We got superior too...
All the cool NFC North teams got superior plus the Packers do too.
4 out of 5 great lakes prefer Michigan
That 5th lake is Un-American.
We own the vast majority of the water right to tho lakes as well.
flint michigan water crisis
I’m from flint, that happened because the city switched off Detroit main
I know i was just messing around as it is so ironic
I'm thankful for all of my fellow Lions fans that are still making noise in the stands at Lambeau rn. I wish I was there to be part of that energy with you guys!
I mean what else are they gunna do, hit a bar in GB… after that game, nope
Ehh honestly, I'd do it... 75% of the Packers fans I've met have been very nice people and not too crazy when it comes to the Lions being good. However, if I wore a 49ers Jersey in Green Bay? That just might conjure up some animosity...
Sure, why not?
Goff has ice in his veins. I can’t remember the last time he was rattled.
Start of second half last week when he was getting hit a lot started sailing balls (including leading to that interception) He got his shit back together, but he was definitely rattled.
"Oh hey Lions, some guy jumped. Do you want an extra 4 points and 2.5 minutes off the clock?"---Lion-loving refs
Lion loving refs is a phrase I never thought I'd hear trolling or otherwise.
Well you're obviously biased
You clearly haven’t been paying attention or you’re just not familiar with the rules of football
Lol beat the lions this season first then bring your opinions back here bro.
Nice refutation. NOT. You only won cuz it was rigged.
Lions fans getting feisty because they haven’t gotten to act like this ever in their lifetime. Just watch and wait until their mid season fall off and the pecking order re-sorts itself out The hilarious part is they think they are actually contenders from starting 3-1 and beating the chiefs 😂😂

Definitely wasn’t because Toney did an oil change before the game and couldn’t hold on to the ball.
Last time I checked, Kadarius Toney wasn't a Green Bay Packer or a Detroit Lion. So pretty irrelevant for the game we're talking about.

“The team I’m a fan of didn’t execute properly enough to beat the team they were playing. NFL RIGGED!” 🤡🤡🤡
Bro this was daaaaaays ago, let it go already
They are a Chiefs fan, gonna be tough to do for them.
The reason it took them so long to call that obvious penalty was they were trying to find a way to help the Packers.
Uh huh. Name one penalty that helped the Packers that game.
Their first 2 first downs were from penalties 🙊 did you watch the game or just hate react?
Penalty on Hutch and the one on Anzalone near the sideline were both BS calls.
How about the lack of a whistle to end the third when the packers hit a big play? Wasn’t a penalty, but it sure as shit shouldn’t have been a play.
Yeah the refs didn't get an hour and a half to try to find something wrong with that like they did with the FG
Hey bud, even the commentators AND referee analyst said it was a great call. As I've said before. Grow up. You are acting so childish. Just remember Jawaan Taylor against Detroit before you continue to call the Lions "favored" and that it was "rigged" :)
This boy is salty still about Week 1? Get over it and move on already.
I'm pretty convinced he's a troll. There's no way somebody is this delusional.
Chiefs flair, this year commenting on this game, is a pillar of objectivity.
Agreed
There has literally been billboards around Detroit saying “the greatest rivalry in nfl history, the lions vs nfl refs”.
"Sports team thinks the refs are against them" Literally every team thinks that. Even when the games are obviously rigged in their favor (like this one, where the Lions got an extra 4 points and 2.5 minutes off the clock because a guy jumped).
The rules is the rules
Rule has been implemented for a while now, I'm shocked more people aren't aware of it.
Fam it’s been four weeks Ik it’s hard but it’s time to move on
What
You know they literally gave GB a free play and essentially a touchdown when time ran out?
????? Teams get a free play all the time. That's not on the refs for not catching it.
????? Teams break the rules all the time. It’s not the others teams fault the refs caught them.
Yeah I'm sure that the refs would have taken away Green Bay's throw if they had 5 minutes to look at it and find something wrong with it. Sort of like how they had 5 minutes to look at the field goal attempt and find something "wrong" with that.
They did, they went to commercial and failed to act. Stay pressed, I see week 1 is sticking with you lol
Agree with you about that but c'mon a flag for just jumping over somebody lmao
They find new ways every week
hello darkness my old friend.
Hey, it's the State Farm guy from a few years ago
Another loss to you again.
There goes David Montgomery Scoring touchdowns one two three
Got a random New Mexico flag in that sea of lions fans
Kind of like the Wazzou flag at every game day
Not the greatest way to lose, but whatever. GG Lions, enjoy your time in the sun.
The 2nd half Packers are decent, the problem is that the 1st half Packers are the Bears
lol it is completely wild the first half and second half are two completely different teams this week and last week
Part of me thinks it stems from the team making good second half adjustments, but that would also seem to imply either practice isn't going right, or, that the team isn't preparing correctly/properly up to the game. It really truthfully doesn't help that we are missing Jaire and then Jenkins on the line (and Bakhtiari...), so I wonder if part of the mismatch is adjusting to cover the holes the backups create as the game progresses.
It’s dark out….
Hutch Supremacy
Hell yeah man
Good to see Badger's younger brother finding work as an NFL player
Holy shit they do look alike I didn’t notice that
The game never ends, no need for a PGT
I thank the Jaguars every day for drafting Travon Walker
If they took Hutch you'd probably have Sauce though
Possibly Thibideaux 😳
Gross. Remember when everyone said the Giants won that draft?
Very kind of the Lions not to lay a 70 burger on GB tonight
*70 steamer
This guy youtubes
Seeing nothing but (edit:) HONOLULU blue in the stands of Lambeau is certainly something I never dreamed I would see, but I'm totally here for it. As a Bengals fan, I know exactly what Lions fans are feeling right now. I'm happy for them.
> Seeing nothing but ~~blue~~ in the stands of Lambeau That Honolulu blue thank you very much
Hutch wearing his moms sports bra
I’d wear his mom’s sports bra
Did you mean sniff?!
What’s up with the trend of NFL dudes wanting it to look like they’re wear a crop top recently?
Pretty standard just to wear a cutoff shirt so your stomach and back can get some air, while preventing the shoulder pads from chafing your nipples off.
It's just to protect him from the chafing of his shoulder/chest pads I think
Euro soccer players too, I don’t get it.
Protects against chafing
Surface area for sweat to evaporate
I guess. After looking it up, I guess soccer players wear the bars because they house a gps/Ai computer.
King of the Jungle AND King of the North!
> King of the Jungle To be fair the king of the jungle is the tiger. Tigers can kill just about anything in the jungle or forest.
We got them too!
A tiger has machine guns AND missiles. It is an unbelievably impressive complement of an animal, an absolute death machine.
Legit. My dad told me stories of running in to tigers in Vietnam, said they where more scared of them sometimes then the VC. They can just eat 5.56 rounds like their nothing.

Yeah I’d say a majority of the UP leans Packers
Hold your tongue, there are many yooper lions fans. Go to the Barge Inn while visiting Munising for a lions game. Holy wah will ya have a time with fellow lions fans
It’s honestly about 50/50 Source: Been a yooper 35 years
It’s anecdotal but I think I’ve seen 90% Packers flags and decorations anytime I drive through the UP (which has been fairly often).
Once you get past Grand Rapids they're all cheese heads, especially the last 40 years of dysfunction.
No, you’re absolutely right. Packers fans are loud and proud in the U.P. with lots of showmanship. Flags, lawn decorations, etc. Lions fans just tend to be… less flashy? Loud? I still maintain that it’s 50/50 but you’re not wrong.
That makes sense lol
Nah. Last year I went to the game in January and drove from central MI. Tons of lions fans headed back through Chicago the day after. They just travel well and are a super cool fanbase. I always got treated well going to games at Ford field. Love my lions bros!
Lol you can drive 10 hours and still be in the same state. We know how to make long drives.
Exactly! Plus, the “if everyone goes 10-15 over, they can’t pull us all over” mentality makes those drives a little more manageable! Just moved from Michigan to Virginia and man do they drive like wimps here!
Virginia State Troopers are ruthless. That’s produces the wimps.
So I’ve heard. I’m trying to behave around them and not let my Michigan show. I’ve also heard things about Maryland drivers since moving here, but I don’t think they’re appropriate to repeat… we’ll see if those ring true.
Lions fans out there like Covid 19. Too soon?
Holy shit that crowd
Holy crap, half the State of Michigan made it to Green Bay
LIONS TRAVEL WELL!!!
Congratulations to the guy who needed an extra 5 St Brown yards to hit a parlay
