Everybody else should be as miserable as me.

I feel bad for the Lions fans. I think they would’ve had a better chance at beating KC, but Mahomes has never been swept. I can’t see Brock Purdy and the 9ers with that underachieving defense beating the Chiefs.

He said “that’s EXACTLY what I’m saying, yes”. Doesn’t sound like sarcasm to me, but message boards being what they are, who knows?

 

It's a bit unfair to be sarcastic on a forum, as nobody can hear tone

 

but for clarity

 

a) i don't think there are NFL scriptwriters

 

b) I don't think this is the superbowl we ALL wanted (i think buffalo would feature in that one)

 

c) if anyone's wearing tin foil hats, it's literally the lions

Im so glad the NFL changed the onside kick rules to make it so rare for a recovery. 2/42 in the regular season. No drama at all.

They need to prevent the imaginary injuries

I feel bad for the Lions and their fans but that loss was very Billsy.  Questionable coaching, bad luck and inept play killed them. The only thing non Billsy is that the refs didn't screw them. An epic way to lose nonetheless. 

Can we retire billsy lol 32 teams have lost games in billsy ways this year 🤣

I hear you, but do you want to end up as the last city in the whole league without a championship? I know I don't.

 

It's nothing against Lions fans. If my team and city hadn't suffered so much and gone through endless playoff heartbreak I would've gladly rooted for them today. Detroit has had plenty of success in other sports

Ok … it’s the one I’m going with though…

 

Should they stroll into the SB first attempt? 
 

They can climb the mountain again with us .. we’ll be on our 5th year in a row

Nice going meathead.  You showed everyone how dumb you really are.  Maybe now you learn the difference between being aggressive in a meaningless regular season game, and being aggressive with a chance to go to the Super Bowl on the line. 

D-U-M-B.  😂

Dan Campbell hits on 20 playing Blackjack.

 

45+yrds FG on bad grass can be dicey propositions and we didn't see what the Lions crappy K was doing pregame, so I don't think either of those calls was necessarily "wrong"

I said this earlier in the year and got a lot of red Xs, but I hate Brock Purdy more than any other player in the NFL. He's a smug SOB. And just like Brady, you are not supposed to get that production from taking a flyer on a late-round pick. Only some teams get that luck. Chiefs with Pacheco, 49ers with Purdy and Pats with Brady. We have to spend draft capital to get a QB.

How did the Lions kicker look in pregame kicking 45yrds+ on that grass?

I'm assuming you are there and were watching him.

 

I dunno.  Neither do you.  It could be him being aggressive.  It could be him not trusting the kicker.  It isn't often someone hears this argument for not kicking though.  What I do know is their kicker is 37 of 48 lifetime kicking 40-49 yards including 1 of 1 this year and 8 of 10 last year.

I honestly don't care enough about them to feel good or bad for them.

Just think it's kind of weird when somebody wants others to suffer.

I thought that late 4th down conversion attempt was fine…def should’ve stepped in to veto that run on the goal line late though…Ben Johnson choked there big time

Since when did Brock Purdy turn into Josh Allen running the ball?

Little dude showed some heart on those runs for sure - hopefully he brings it in a couple weeks

Welp we’ll see if he’s enough to get it done in two weeks…I think he’s gonna hold them back and kc will win again

I never claimed to know.

That's why I'm not running around calling people stupid morons for in-game decisions they made.

Half those same people would be calling Campbell a moron if he put the FG team out there on 4th/2 and his kicker missed.

Yeah, the most WRONG call was definitely running the ball on third and goal and wasting a timeout.
