Well Det is gonna win this

Vikings missed way too many points as Det made def plays when needed.

The life of a Vikings fan aint easy
Minn is done darnold has been exposed tonight. Detroit D is Awful and Darnold can’t do anything.

He missed a couple red zone throws, everything else has been tight coverage. I think Detroits D is pretty good. Their offense is elite. Detroit is a better team I think. I thought the Viking receivers would have got more open. Credit to Aaron Glen. He called a great game and they came to play.

Detroit needs to start resting their starters, no need to risk anymore injuries

Detroits entire D is hurt they have given up 32 points a game last 4 weeks and have no DB’s and had more get hurt tonight. Minn is over rated and Darnold will be a backup next year where he belongs.

They only gave up 3 field goals tonight. They may not have performed exceptional, but they were very, very effective. They kept the pass rush pressure on and kept people covered in the secondary.
What the Lions have done damn near perfect, is block. Not just the O-line, but backs and receivers as well.

The Lions HC is a doofus and will soon be exposed when all his assistants are hired away after the season.

Harsh! I like Darnold. He had no time to throw. You can’t put that loss on him. I also would have kicked field goals instead of going for it every time Vikings D couldn’t stop Detroit Offense in the second half.

IMO- Darnold deserves to start for the Vikings next year.

If the assistants are smart theyd stay. All the vacancies are with horrible organizations in my opinion.

Aaron Glen played for the jets. I could see him h
Going there. But that’s a tough org to win with.

It is fun watching them win. I have a LOT of time put in watching the Lions on the other end.

Was reading in one of the local Detroit papers. The 2023 draft when Lions traded up to 12 to take Gibbs, the Vikings were actively trying to trade up at the same time to get Gibbs.
Oh, and all the experts said the Lions made a huge mistake taking Gibbs at 12. He was only a second rounder at best...😅😅

Thanks for reminding me. I was one of those calling it “a huge mistake.” I’m taking my beating daily from my Detroit buddies about that call.

Go Lions!

I don't follow football enough, so at the time I had no idea who Gibbs was or where he went to school. My son on the other hand was telling me Gibbs was the steal of the draft. In 2023.

Head Coach firings have started already.
Raiders should make an announcement and Davis should sell the team.
Hope the Lions take it all.

We were at the Circa and the Mahomes ran up a serious booze bill and stiffed the servers.
Kamalcoholic supporters,, yeah reason enough to see them lose.

Talk about no respect, try being a Charger fan :( They got about 2 minutes of coverage but I guess playing the Raiders warrants it eh ?
Until they actually start beating other teams with regularity thats all they get is honorable mention, but Ill keep beating the drum anyways I guess, maybe this year huh? 👍

Originally from Michigan and have my sister and bil staying with us for a few weeks to get out of the cold weather back home.

Nothing better than watching the Lions the last few years. Last night was so fun for us. My mom (84) was texting me throughout the game…she was so excited and stayed up past her bedtime. 😂

We had the game on in So Cal, though at the start they switched over twice to the dumb ass Broncos game!

Really.....there are only 2 teams to have never gone to a Super Bowl since it's inception The Detroit Lions and the Cleveland Browns. So save the 50 years of misery thing......lpl

He's been a great leader.

His OC stayed another year when he had many offers. Coordinators often ( not always ) bust when they leave to be head coaches.

Look at all the Patriot flops that left. They did squat with out Brady.
