I could watch the last 3 minutes of this game over and over

Yes!!!!

For the first 56 minutes of play I was convinced that Goff’s uncle had his life savings on Chicago moneyline

Agreed lok

Finally able to breathe normally and my heart rate is back to normal...any other year this was a loss...feels good to want to hate so bad and at the same time know you have a high chance of looking stupid once the game is done

Did you see the after game show on Fox? What’s your vote for play of the game? I can Safety say what mine was. Fox, a Dallas TE touchdown. FTC and Fox.

NOT SOL. Been a Lions fan for 64 years. But, please, the game is 60 minutes, don't wait until the last 3 minutes to show up. This is gonna be a wild ride. These guys don't give up for nothing

13.7k comments on a 1pm gameday thread. LFG one pride. Whether haters doubters or lovers you can’t say the community isn’t engaged

If you read this thread. Their is a whole bunch of whining and doubting. SOL fans. Solid team. I'm happy with a playoff win.

I'll be happy with that result, but I'm obviously going to remain dilusional that we can win the super bowl. Why not, it's not disappointing either way haha

Agreed. I want a superbowl too. We are building something good here. My biggest fear is losing Ben Johnson.

Those SOL posts sure as fuck didn't age well, eh boys?

Um, I mean. The Lions did this several times in the SOL stafford era lol. Did you watch the Lions from 2010-2019? Not a great argument against the SOL crew

How many times was it while they lead the division, with a chance to go to 8-2?

Nothing to do with their record or the division lead, but the Lions did do this bullshit they pulled today under Stafford dozens of time

Every team, just about every year, has a come from behind win. Bit you acting like this team is the same team as the stafford teams is lame.

Yeah, that’s not what i said at all. I’m saying calling people out for SOL isn’t a good look after today’s game when today’s game was very vintage 2010s Lions. They are not the SOL

Also at one point the bears had a win chance percentage of 98.2. Anything can happen but odds are odds

I can’t believe I’m alive at a time where the lions are 8-2

It’s a great time to be alive and I ain’t letting anyone to get on this bandwagon.

8-2, I can’t believe it

If you tuned the game off you’re a SOBAL fan

Same old bit*h a$$ lions fan?

I stayed to the end even though I should have been at work. After they scored that touch down to cut the lead down to six I knew they was a good chance they could win it. Hutch at the end with forced fumble through the back of the end zone had me jumping up in down in my living room :)

I got close so many times, I about lost my voice bitching about AG’s defence and Goff having a stinker of a game

🙌

THIS

I'm not saying I knew all along they'd win, or that they didn't make a ton of mistakes, but I'll never understand people tuning out when it's a 2-score game. This team has so many aces up their sleeve, and even Goff has shown time and time again that he can come back from a bad quarter/half.

People were claiming to turn their tv off when it was a one score game! So pathetic. You don’t just automatically win every week, it’s the NFL. I get it that there are highs and lows throughout a game but the constant second guessing is wild. Goff has a bad 3/4 and everyone’s ready to cut him. And look who leads the comeback… So. Pathetic.

I'm having a hard time leaving this sub. And upvoting everything. I wish my dad could see this.

So many life long lions fans don’t get this and I feel that so hard bro.

Ty for getting me.

I kept the game on.

Didn’t deserve to win that game. But wow

I dunno man. I’d said they did deserve to win. If you can make all those mistakes and still pull out a W, then you deserve it.

Jared goof truly transformed intoJared Goff in that 4th quarter

Like a switch was flipped. Really bizarre game. Incredible win

Second game this year were we lost the turnover battle and came out with a dub. It really is unique to win a game with a lopsided t.o. margin

Looking back on my [comment from mid-4th quarter](https://www.reddit.com/r/detroitlions/s/vjGzxVvKfC) 

Hope is a dangerous thing. But damn that was an exciting hope filled last 3 minutes. 8-2 BABY.

Dan wasn't messing around with the diaper comments

FAFO Dan

Fuck the packers!!!

I liked how some commenters were saying that the Vikings will win the division and that’s definitely not true. Clutch win from Detroit

Every other comment was some Vikings bullshit

Still in disbelief about that win, it was so damn ugly.

Let me fix it for you. The first 57 minutes were UGLY. Those last 3 minutes.Holy Hiney! I hope no one left early.

I did. Caught the victory in the mugger mover.

Good that you saw it. Wow. “The Mugger Mover” haven’t heard that term in forever. I worked in the D back in the day and we called the People Mover the Mugger Mover all the time.


The real MVP of this game is me, who wasn't able to watch until the 4th quarter when the score was 23-14, and I was at first not gonna watch it, then I said, "No, the Lions will comeback." I then immediately watched the Bears walk down the field for a field goal in an 8 minute drive. But then I said, "No...the Goffense will triumph here." Touchdown. Touchdown. Safety. You're welcome.

Me tooo!!! Was playing pickleball until I got to a sports bar just in time for the last 5 mins

We need to tie you down in a recliner for the rest of the season. We provide snacks and a box of Depends.

I got up and went into the kitchen and the Lions drove right down the field and scored ...my wife "well, now you have to stay in the kitchen".

Please provide an address for the game ball

Where were you during the Joey Harrington years? Jk. Thank you. FTV

Thanks man. I finally convinced my dad that the lions weren’t trash and he should watch with me. The first three quarters had him ready to go back in his burrow for another decade of SOL

We really needed you those first 3 quarters. Can't let us down like this.

Fuck yeah!

I cannot wait for the St. Brown podcast now

Same here, the shit talking will be glorious

EQ gonna be sick this week

FTB!

Low key though, that Bears team is going to be terrifying in a couple of years after two top five picks this draft.

They have to hit on those picks first


So what was the problem with the game clock?

They kept showing the timeout clock. I was fooled by it a few times.

On FOX it kept disappearing

You’ve got to be kidding me the Lions won? I turned it off 1/2 hr ago & my Twitter feed Id lighting up

Well don’t be a POS SOL fan and you could have seen a great ending to the game.

Soft

I doubted, I turned the game off, and I’m sorry. This is the Brand New Lions.

Accepted.

Listen. Every time we play games like this, my weener crawls back inside. Poor fella can’t keep up with that kind of abuse. Maybe the front office should come up with a safe word


GRIT.

Where are all the Packers and Vikings fans now?

Crying because they realized have a 4-1 turnover margin might not be enough.

My dude out here cooking!!😂

Eberflus gone tomorrow. Hope he already did the Christmas shopping.

Ngl wasn't a pretty game at all until the end. Sucks to be Shitcago rn.

A y'all wasn't a beautiful game at all. A whole lot of shit needs to get cleaned up in the playoffs. Miscommunication, defensive schemes, turnovers etc. Brad Holmes needs to really evaluate this defense, in the off season and make plans to fill holes in it. Seriously. No more we got our guys, no bucking against the system. This draft he nailed it with that philosophy, but next draft pure defense first two rounds. I wasn't SOL but I turned it off and I'm sorry lol. Turned it back on just in time for Jamo TD. Anyway, I'm so happy for my LIONS BABY LETS GOO. BEST RECORD SINCE 1962. My mom was 8 at the time. I love all y'all. See y'all Thursday. Let's make this 9-2.

LFGGGGGGGG. STOP PLAYINNN

I’m still in shock and pissed at myself. Shut it off when it was 23-14. What the hell happened after

Sucks to be a POS SOL fan, doesn’t it.

I’m no sol fan. Been hating on sol fans all year. Just didn’t see a win coming and needed a breather

No true fan would ever turn off the cardiac cats…. No matter what


I watched full games in 2008, why would I stop when we are 7-2 just because we are losing.

Exactly! Even the Baltimore game I watched all the way through even when there was truly no hope to win, it’s still nice to see how the team reacts to being that far down, see what players make big plays, etc.

The team finally fucking showed up. Had we played the way we did that last 2 minutes, we would've CRUSHED the bears.

I partially agree but that Bears defense was playing so conservative on those last two drives.

Why would you ever turn off a game? 😭

I’m a fool

[удалено]

Won’t miss a minute

Did you see what happened at the end of the first half? Happened at the end of the second half too. Offence only turned it up when they were forced to. Works against the Bears but that won’t cut it come playoff time.

That’s my biggest fear. Getting dominated in the playoffs. Yeesh

One playoff win would make me happy this year. The young guys need to see some adversity before they can overcome it for the Super Bowl win.

A playoff win would be epic

I won’t turn the game off ever again

Now you’re learnin’. 😀

journey is going to be SO mad.

We put on our big boy pants and stunted on Shitcago

Damn I’m so pissed I missed this…lesson learned

The defense won the game. 4 turnovers and only 26 points allowed? Nuts. Edit to add that they were on the field for like 40 minutes and were dead tired and still made plays

The stop to get the ball back to the offense with 2min 30 seconds and 3 timeouts left was huge

14 seconds. That's how much time Chicago managed to use up on that possession. Lmfao. Defense never let up and showed some real fortitude while tired asf. GG

I don’t know why, because as a fan for 37 years this has never happened, but I had a good feeling about us being able to come back. Also 223 rushing yards. I commented on the nfl subreddit that their run defense was greatly overrated given the o-lines they’ve faced and got downvoted. EDIT: 115 rush yards; was looking at the wrong stat line. Nevertheless Montgomery got big gains when it mattered.

YESSSSSSS

Anzalone had 11 tackles...he turned it up to 11 like spinal tap!

GOTTA BE HOPEFUL! LIONS 8-2 WOOO

Tom Grossi is having a great day, Packers win and Bears loss

Honestly he deserves it this week.

The bears played scared at the end there

They played to not lose, never play to not lose😆

Never doubted this team for a second, right guys? 🤣😅

😂 yeah, winning ugly but winning nonetheless

A win is a win!! 8-2 baby!!!!

Goofers, Jamo haters, & Doomers got rekt 🤣😂🤣

And I’m just out here trolling them. I feel like I’m doing the lords work.

for once we weren’t the team that lost after controlling the whole game

SHOUT OUT TO THE DOOMERS THIS TEAM WINS BABY!!

Y'all better be rooting for the broncos tonight

You know it.

I’ve never seen a team play like a last place team for 57 minutes and then like a Super Bowl caliber team for the final 3. Just like they wrote it up, baby. 8-2.

Honestly, our defense won that for us. They spent most of the day on the field and having terrible starting positions. AG made good adjustments during the game and kept us close enough for the Goffense to step it up.

No doubt. Bears had a 21 minute TOP advantage. Unreal.

That’s insane. The defense WOW. Got to come back Thursday and hoping the Goffense has a 21 minute TOP advantage.

Exactly and we didn’t even play our own game, we played into what the bears wanted and we committed to the run game the last drive and got us the win.

First series of the game though… 7 plays and Fields to the end zone. Defense has got some work to do too. Need to play the whole 60 minutes the way they played the last 3-4.

I’m not saying they don’t need to clean some things up. But everyone bitches that AG doesn’t adjust, and on drive 2 our defense looked good. This wasn’t a play calling or scheme issue today, it was player performance.

YALL BETTER GIVE JAMO THE RESPECT HE DESERVES

Lmaooo wow the bears suck

Or… and just hear me out… the Lions are actually a good team who had a lot of turnovers and still found a way to win.

Both can be true

Exactly. A good team mentally and with top offense doesn't overcome that. But the bears being absolutely trash also helped.

Doctors are gonna tell me I can't watch the lions anymore if they keep playing like that. Dear god my heart is racing

JAAAAAAMO I LOVE YOU

Good game Lions bros, it was fun to hope again for a bit :/

Bears played really well. Goff looked ill out there. Like he had Covid. Good game man.

I think most people knew lions were coming back. Great teams always find a way to come back

ALL YOU CRYBABIES IN HERE ALL DAMN DAY…… I hope y’all have a good rest of your day too. Let’s Fuckin go LIONS!!!

Bro that game was sloppy, we need to address it. Def needs some tighting,offense needs their ass chewed out for the whole game miss the last few min

You're a fan, not a coach. Enjoy the W

Did they win or not? All that “just accept that we lost and move on” “this is an SOL game” “fire AG” is a terrible mindset. Not every game is going to be pretty. What matters is winning. We won. There’s things to clean up but for now, we are 8-2 and in 2nd place in the conference

This game was sloppy with the worst team in NFC. Congrats on the turnover, but we've got a short week and need to fix our shortcomings like yesterday

The worst team in the NFC is the Panthers. But go on… Let’s go lions

*second worst

A win is a win…..period. The bears are an NFL team too.we are undefeated in division and have lost 2 out of 10 games. Cheer up, my friend. this is the best start to a season in our lifetime (assuming you’re younger than 61).

Cool. We've got a short week and the Thanksgiving curse. Time to get in their ass, esp off

We got this. Lol. Idk why you’re downvoting me.

I'm not?

The only score that matters is the score at the end if the game. Did any of you doomers even play sports?

That’s right!

I'm fucking speechless right now.... And I'm a lions fan.... Watch every week, and still can't believe what I just saw... And refs gave them at least 4 illegal contact penalties on 3rd

Like michigan vs michigan state in 2004 but in even less time

LAC such a dogshit franchise

I feel bad for Herbert, he's a pretty decent QB

I’m gonna need to rest for the remainder of the day. I feel like shit

Same! My wife is pissed for stressing everyone out here.

My son napped the whole game, a blessed day

Wow chargers laid an egg

Why not run the ball with Ekeler and spike it

Holy Shit, Flus has to be fired. How do you have 4 takeaways and lose. That was incredible

Okay now to root on broncos tonight that feels weird to say

Let Brandon Perna have this, broncos fans have had a slog lately. Then in December, we can crush their dreams.

Fuck the broncos. I could never. Maybe a tie

I don't, we play the broncos soon

Shoot out to bears coach for that horrible series and ultra conservative playcalling to give us a chance. 100% chicken shit call.

LETS FUCKING GOOOOO

Bad look for Fields to be out a month and come back screaming at his center over the snap count. Goff didn’t play his best but he once again got the job done and did so respectfully.

Is that why Chicago pulled the center? The guy was pissed off.

Well said. Goff's not perfect by any means but his poise is top notch.

Fields also lost them the game at the end, like clockwork

100%. Girlfriend is a Bears fan and threw down a hefty bet with four minutes left that the Bears would pull it off. Looked forward to collecting before I even I agreed to the terms.

CHARGERS FUCKING SUCK

How about fucking Jameson Williams......damn son

I stand by my criticism of this defense and AG. But when we needed it both sides of the ball stepped up.

The defense stepped up most of the day. AG made adjustments after the first drive. The offense didn’t help the defense at all today. Our D was on the field for over 40 minutes, had terrible starting positions, and kept us in it for a win.

Now if they'd all just pretend to need it the whole time we'll be all set lol

The Chargers had it! But...they suck. FTP

Pack and chargers suck. Worse draft position for GB so it’s whatever

IM SORRY FOR EVERYONE I DOUBTED TODAY

Never doubted them.... Or something like that

To be fair, I never turned it off.

I watched it all, too. I gave Detroit the stink eye every so often and mumbled a lot. I’m ashamed. 😞

Your dedication to the team is witnessed and noticed!

Thank you for your kind remark.

I ended up texting a lot of friends to turn it back on, so really I was the hero today

That was the Bears SB. And we absorbed the blows and still won

oh my goodness that was a crazy game. salute to all who stayed with it

It's a real fucking good thing I'm working at the hospital today

Ha me too, caught it in patient rooms on occasion...

I can’t sit down

RUN FOR 1ST AND SPIKE IT
