[boogerlovejoy]

34-31

Can?t believe I?m saying this??Lions win!!!!

 

[JScottWriter]

I hope I am wrong but I feel like this is one of those games the Lions collapse to the pressure and don?t show up.

Damnit, now that?s in my head

 

[503]

Damnit, now that?s in my head

Get it out of your head. We?re winning today!!!

 

[RedRenegade]

I feel like it's not outside the realm of possibility we ambush them like Dallas did. Maybe not so lopsided, but handily. Especially since we're at home. More likely it's a typical Vikings one possession game. We either win by 3 or lose by 3, I think.

 

[mhughes0021]

Heck of a play by board.

 

[mhughes0021]

Okudah!

 

[sggatecl]

Okudah!

When he starts to lose a step as a CB I think he'll make a very good safety in the later part of his career. His tackling has been as advertised.

 

[mhughes0021]

Jwill!

 

[grandy]

Jamo!

 

[gotime909]

Fuck yeah Goff to Williams for the 1st time!!!

 

[sggatecl]

The Jamo era has begun motherfuckers!!!

 

[mhughes0021]

Unleashed! Be awesome if he had a 200yd game today lol.

 

[kdp1980]

Horrible coverage, but I?ll take it

 

[mhughes0021]

Underthrew him by 7 yards lol

 

[kdp1980]

Jarred Davis exploded that blocker

 

[mhughes0021]

Jared Davis still missing sacks. How does that guy over run everything his entire career? Its amazing.
