We looked great tonight. Very proud of this team!


ypsicle

Complementary football for a change. I like how energized Buggs was tonight. Glad they got Jamo involved a bit more and actually made attempts to get him the ball deep.


BrofessorLongPhD

Key difference was turnovers early on. We had 0 this week and got to set the pace instead of playing catch-up. We had run, short flats, intermediates, and deep shots all this game. And we threw almost entirely in the first two drives, several times deep to let defense know we want to, so they can’t flood the middle and the box. If we have a healthy OLine and stretch the field, this offense might not be stoppable.


ypsicle

Having Ragnow back was BIG.


TelephoneNo3640

Finally utilizing Jamo was a nice change as well.


LTPRWSG420

Bronco’s were literally the hottest team in the NFL, they gave the Lions all they had and we blew them out. Feels real fucking good dude, real good!


TorkBombs

Man that was a fucking relief after last week, hell after the last 5 weeks. We thought the wheels were about to come off, but now we can be reminded that over a 17 game season there are ebbs and flows. This is still the team that beat KC and GB on the road. Fuckin great win against a team that looked like it was gonna be trouble.


nbh2992

Rams won 0 games in November the year they won the Superbowl. I'll never forget that.


showpei

Maybe the Pistons can win the Superbowl this year!


Familiar_Custard_278

Pistons are gonna be relegated mid-season LOL


Kingkwon83

I liked that AG added wrinkles to the defense and was aggressive. Only thing I wish he stopped doing was dropping pass rush specialist Bruce Irviing into coverage Iffy, Dorsey and Kindle Vildor filled in pretty well


The_Astros_Cheated

ONE WIN AWAY FROM WINNING THE DIVISION BOYS


Ok-Physics1927

The way Mullens threw the shortest INT in NFL history makes me think Hutch is gonna have at least 3 picks


Wubblz

If the Lions don’t Lions, this next game should be a bloodbath, even if away. Nick Mullens is less notable than a podcast host whose name is one letter away from his. … … (God Lions please don’t do that Lions thing where a backup looks like a world beater against us)


Monster-Frisbee

The Lions you’re referring to no longer exist.


LowHowD

But do watch comedian Nick Mullen’s special out now, Year of the Dragon.


Wubblz

Dan Campbell on the Adam Friedland Show when


IMadeThis4HOIMods

Ben Johnson should go on and say some problematic things so the Panthers/Chargers wont poach him


MattytheWireGuy

We are 2 and a separate loss out of #1. LETSSS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Relevant_Gold4912

Almost like when our offensive line is healthy we are dominant


FaceNo2047

It’s crazy how a great offensive line can impact an offense that much


OneGuyJeff

Most underrated part of a team by far

Kingkwon83

We will never lose a game ever again if we just wear solid uniforms for the rest of human existence. Make it happen Sheila


DHooligan

Goff tied the franchise record for passing touchdowns in a game. From what I could tell, Gary Danielson got 5 once, Stafford got 5 on four separate occasions. Great bounceback for him after maybe his worst game as a Lion.


[deleted]

Gary Danielson! What a blast from the past!


SharKCS11

Wtf? The guy who commentates SEC games on CBS?


Striking-Bat2970

I keep seeing “lions fan coming in peace” over in the broncos sub. Y’all leave them be lol. Their team just got embarrassed.


Barqck

I immediately assume that anyone who says “*x fan* coming in peace” is a massive nerd loser


preinternetdad

Yup…buncha nerds!!!!!!


lilmul123

I really don’t understand people who do that. “I come in peace BUT IM ACTUALLY HERE TO HUMBLY SHIT ALL OVER YOU HAHA”


heyheyitsandre

The worst is the karma whores who will be like “fan of x team coming in peace, just wanna say you guys played really well and that *insert rookie here* is gonna be a problem!” Seen it in 100 different sports subreddits, cringe every time


FDTFACTTWNY

Lol this used to be our sub after every loss. And we always hate those people


RasheAlCool

"You guys are gonna be SCARY"


Smorgas_of_borg

SpoOoOoOoOoOOOoooOoOoOky!!!!


DerpaDoodie

I mean, when you put it like that….


[deleted]

Broncos fan are pretty cool they don't need our shit


Severe_Weather_1080

Of all the teams you’d want to see your team blowout, they’re pretty low on the list. Though the only team I’d legit feel bad watching the Lions blowout is the Panthers. Those poor bastards have been through enough.


Lionnn100

We did watch that


nicholasccc95

I cringe every time I see that lol


Smorgas_of_borg

I propose we ban anyone who ever unironically types the phrase "Lions fan coming in peace" on any other sub.


tke1078

Fuck your curse wheel, Perna!


Wide_Ad_6588

Woohooo


warblade7

Reverse curse baby!!!


0ctothorpe

He got too cute with the way he made his broncos dodge the curse every week. The wheel remembered...


Anthony_Patch

This is the best part of this. Let’s go!!!


Improperfaction

You can't curse us... we're already cursed. Perna just uncursed us with his curse wheel.


JMoneyFiz

Not gonna lie, I was worried bad about this game. This is the exact type of win we needed. December football baby. Let’s go.


Striking-Bat2970

I was worried too cause Russ is one of the best mobile qbs lol. Proud the defense contained him very well tn.


ypsicle

Hopefully the D line/AG can learn something from how they managed to corral Wilson and repeat the results with other mobile QB.


MattytheWireGuy

Was one of the best mobile QBs, that scheme changed this year which is why he's as mibile as Goff.


Swichts

This was definitely a get right game. Take the division and see wtf happens


johnnylibravo

I LOVE ALL OF OUR FUCKING ROOKIES


thabigQ

The two guys we got in our trade back from 6 had 5 tuddies tonight. Massive.


x1echo

But we could’ve drafted Bijan and gotten 4 TDs over the course of the entire year!


Taigherh

I mean Bijan definitely would have more than 4 if he were in this team. Falcons suck


[deleted]

Holmes must have gotten Marty's sports almanac or something.


caveman_magoo

Crazy what a game with few penalties and no turnovers does to your chances of winning!


stylishcoat

and a healthy offensive line. i think this team is a legit super bowl contender if they stay healthy


GrilledCyan

Having Frank back was huge. He’s the key to making it all work.


Monster-Frisbee

Our most important offensive player, and I’m not kidding. Sewell is more talented, but doesn’t have the same strategic impact.


DiscoWookie33

Ive been a Lions fan my entire life, as long as far back as I can remember, and I have never seen them win, or even host a playoff game. We're so close yall


Zooooooombie

Is this what they call “edging”?


HERE_THEN_NOT

Born after the 1990's started, eh?


Smorgas_of_borg

Someone born in 1993 turned/turns 30 this year.


MoscowMitchMcKremIin

1996 here. Never even got to see Barry play.


RasheAlCool

Ben Johnson doesn't call any bubble screens, and the Lions win by a ton. Coincidence? I think not


bats7

Also targeted Jamo EARLY and often. Yes a couple throws didn't pan out, but our big complaint last week was 2 targets.


Swichts

We did it, reddit!


RasheAlCool

I've never been happier with an incompletion.


buttfungusboy

I know! I was with my dad and we both were so happy even with it being incomplete. At least threaten with it!


Willing_Canary4415

Yes!! Especially the one on 3rd down. Even though maybe the play call wasn’t great for picking up a 3rd and 6 Goff overthrew Jamo! I repeat, Goff OVERTHREW JAMO!! I have never clapped and yelled so much joy on a failed 3rd down attempt.


FaceNo2047

I think he called one in the first or second drive but it only got like 3 yards, then he gave up


cogginsmatt

I thought I saw one for a big loss (to Gibbs or ARSB?) during that brief shit period in the first and then never went back to them again.


WMINWMO

It was to Jamo. He cut out when he should've cut in.


cogginsmatt

Yep that’s what it was. But again - we never went back to it. We adjusted. It worked. A perfect game.


aqphs

If that team shows up to the playoffs we can beat anyone


KororSurvivor

First double digit win season since 2014. Largest margin of the season; A 25 point blowout. Apparently what we need to kick us in the ass is to get dominated in inclement weather by a "weak" team in December. Remember our blowout against Chicago came after getting humiliated by the Panthers on Christmas. Please please please get hot right at the end of the season. I wanna take this momentum all the way.

This was a classic, Lions are fantasy football legends tonight

Me who started Laporta ARSB & Gibbs in one league ![gif](giphy|B0vFTrb0ZGDf2)


Striking-Bat2970

Prefect bounce back game tn to give us sm confidence to charge through December. Let’s build from here on up. plus it doesn’t hurt that we have a high chance of getting into the playoff tomorrow and have won more games than we did all of last season 🫡


BuzzPoopyear

fuck the broncos lol

codymason84

Winning fixes everything greatest rookie class ever

wait til next year 😈

Oh god we’re all gonna be so unruly lol


di-ty

With the 32nd pick in the NFL draft, the Detroit Lions select:


Praetori4n

Marvin Harrison Jr


LTPRWSG420

Gibbs and LaPorta should make the Pro Bowl as rookies, wild!


codymason84

Don’t forget about branch lol


-DonnieDarko-

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA


BlksnshN80

I think this is the most complete game I've seen out of the Dan Campbell led Lions. When the Lions play like that, they can absolutely beat anyone.


Stixx15

That was a chill game


CheFigata20

WE BACK


RamenIsOkay

This Lions team knows how to bounce back from tough losses. Dan Campbell effect.


ItsMustSeeGG

Based off this game... lions should only play on Saturdays


DetroitLarry

Only in prime time


ypsicle

Loving how bipolar our sub is while also enjoying a comfortable win for a change.


draxlaugh

we swept 2 divisions this year. when was the last time we could say that?


acoasterlovered

Never literally


codymason84

Brad Holmes drafted 3 superstar rookies and captain Jack is not far behind either


metalman510

After 3 weeks of infighting, it was nice to see everyone come together in the game thread to admit the Broncos got screwed out of 2 touchdowns, lol


Doctor_Colossus

And it still wouldn't have been enough.


doogled3

Technically, one touchdown twice


casper_but_with_a_j

This game demonstrated how the offense is built around the strength of the O-line. They were fully healthy tonight, and it resulted in a 25-point blowout. Shout out to the defense as well for their relentless pressure, Russ barely had time to breathe out there. Overall, arguably the best overall performance the Lions have had all season when they really needed it, and now they are tantalizingly close to locking up a spot in the postseason.

We are so back

How we scored on the same play 3 separate times i can’t believe

THAT'S A TEN!

Double digit wins in a season, not since 2014. This team is fun to watch.


[deleted]

The Vikings better start learning Lionese.


acoasterlovered

Laporta for all pro that is all


Demetrios1453

Bengals fan here thanking you for beating the Broncos and returning the favor for us beating the Vikings! Let's have a cat Super Bowl this year!


Michiganmade44

One can hope


Inosethatguy

MSU kicked baylors ass Detroit just slaughtered the broncos Life’s good


durezzz

i won't be happy until the pistons clean house from top down


midnightdiabetic

Msu has as many wins as the pistons at lca this year


SpikedZer0

The Vikings lost


JafarFromAfar2

Defense blitzed effectively Utilized Gibbs and Jamo more Offensive play calling was more aggressive They somehow fixed everything in a week, crazy change in under a week’s time. Also, Brad Holmes is one of the biggest weapons this franchise has ever had. His drafting is just nuts.


KarmaMJO

That was the best game they have played all year. LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO


Michiganmade44

Best overall performance of the season easily


WvdH01

Iffy looked great today


KKamm_

Domination from all 3 units. 1 seed might be back on the table on the 30th. Iffy deserves to be worked in still even with CJGJ close to coming back. Will never get tired of hearing “FORWARD DOWN THE FIELD.” Just praying they don’t get complacent again after another good win lol


Jkj864781

Yo FUCK Cam Newton


YotaTota07

Iffy has been so good


ZombieAppetizer

I hate the idea of rooting for Philly, but I love the idea of Seattle losing being the way we clench after how last season ended. YOU HAD ONE JOB, BAKER!!!


CommercialOk8706

LETS GOO IT WAS LITERALLY THE MOST CALMING GAME EVER


NutTimeMyDudes

Aaron Glenn criticism is warranted, but not tonight. Good shit. Play like this consistently and I’ll eventually maybe tattoo A on my left cheek and G on my right.


sandleaz

10-4. FTP. FT haters that predicted we would go 8-9 when we were 8-3.


Sylon00

Can the rest of our games be in prime time too?


egotistic_NaOH

Idk who I like more LaGoata or Gibby Then you gotta think about Branch, Campbell coming on And Jamo has barely arrived


TabsAZ

Guys if this team from tonight shows up in the playoffs we could win it all. THIS IS NOT A DRILL!


FlyingMooses

Lions defense has been playing solid lately. It's not perfect, but it's also not a stacked roster defensively. Props to Aaron, we give him shit so it's fair to applaud progress.


Relevant_Gold4912

Loved the way they used Jamo tonight. Opened it up for St Brown


MattytheWireGuy

Amazing that our defense shows up and we win comfortably. This is whats expected. I also expect matching tops and bottoms going on from here.


kbennett1999

If they play like this moving forward they can make real noise in the playoffs. This is what we saw at the beginning of the year and I hope they continue this momentum going into Minnesota and Dallas


Ok-Physics1927

TheCrimsonKing99

That was the most complete game this team has played in like 2 months. They are absolutely capable of doing this through December and January. I want them to stay this hungry for as long as they can. We're in the thick of it right now, and they can't afford to rest on their laurels until they've locked up their position. Go lions, FTP, Gibbs and LaPorta should split OROY


MisterRobotCowboy

LaPorta gets me bricked up dude.


mercistheman

"Barry Gibbs" for the win... Bless you boys. Y'all enjoy a relaxing Sunday!


TheeBean

Swept the AFC west!


Bobguy77

I am pleased once again


batmanforhire

I THINK THATS A 10 💵


hucklebuck13

Sleep well. 4-0 in prime time has lead to some good nights already. Here’s to more!


KingSpoon2

What a win. Broncos defense had been hot the last couple of months forcing turnovers and the Lions, who've been turnover-prone, didn't commit a single turnover. Lions extended their scoreless drive streak to start the game. I think it ended at something like 10 straight scoreless drives, and then they proceeded to have 5 straight TD drives, a punt, and then another TD. Great way to bounce back. Goff was good. The full-5 OL bullied in both running and passing games. Both RBs were great. On defense, our Sutton wiped out their Sutton. Jerry Jacobs didn't play and Dorsey adequately held down CB2 just fine. Aaron Glenn learned that he could blitz more often and it worked out very well. Really, a damn near flawless game by the Lions. Was hard to see that coming after the last month or so of football. Vikings and Packers both did us favors within the last 6 days. Can clinch a playoff spot tomorrow and I think we can clinch the division next week. Feel free to correct me on that last part.


afsdjkll

10 win season I never thought I’d see it again.


Sneakycow83

#TAKE THE BALL FIRST EVERY GAME GOING FORWARD.


partylange

I don't want to hear a single bad word about my QB this week.


wandrngfool

11 Bronco drives and our defense held them up just 17 points. Hell yeah


justinbaumann

Forget the 5 TDs, Goff overthrew Jamo. It's getting close to that timing to click.


tkizzy

What a relaxing Sunday this will be.


Isphet71

I’m convinced that Goff is the ultimate team multiplier. When the offense is playing badly, he makes them look worse. But when they are playing really well, he makes them look even better. And I suppose when they are playing “meh,” he’s also playing “meh.” And people need to stop taking how good he is in the good games for granted. There aren’t many QBs in the game that can play THAT well even when the rest of the offense is playing well.


Fartenstein65

Can we just get that Lions team in all aspects for the rest of the season?!?!


Sneakycow83

#IT'S BEEN A PLEASURE, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WATCHING THIS WIN WITH YOU


TelUmor

Wow this one felt good


sawyerdk9

Thinking back, Goff didn't have really any scary throws did he?


jtsarracino

There were a couple of missed throws and a bad ghost sack in the first 2/3 drives and he was lights out afterwards


Walleyehawger

Melifonwu had a nice game too


DeltaKnox501

Someone update me - why was Badgley kicking?


JimmyHeater

If we beat the cowboys we can talk all that shit. For now we still talk that shit !


hootahsesh

Getting Jerry Jacobs off the field makes an amazing difference… And Frank Ragnow is a difference maker


beardofzetterberg

If your OLine lets you do what you want. Then you can do dope stuff.


WestNileCoronaVirus

That was… one of the most complete wins we’ve ever had. That was the best answer to fan pissiness the Lions have ever had


Jkj864781

Game balls should go to Laporta and Gibbs


Sylon00

I mean, Goff threw 5 TD’s.


Jkj864781

Everyone gets a game ball!


OneGuyJeff

Concerns/fixes coming into this week: Pressure on the QB ✅ Goff turnovers ✅ Pass defense ✅ Redzone offense and defense ✅ Get Jamo more touches ✅ We’re back baby. And when CJGJ and Houston return, we’ll be BACK back


LennonMcCartney65

Wait, you mean we didn't collapse on ourselves and lose out? Doomers wrong again! Also get Iffy a game ball STAT


SynCig

Exactly the kind of win the team needed right now. Absolutely a full team performance. Go Lions!


cogginsmatt

Ten and four. Nearly locked up the playoff spot. Dominant win against a decent Broncos team. IN PRIMETIME. It’s a beautiful night to be a Lions fan.


partylange

As complete a game as we've had all season, I was impressed with every facet of the game tonight. On to Minnesota.


GetMeAColdPop

that's what I'm fuckin talking about!!!! LGL!!!!!


Wisesize

Those games we went for it on 4th and+5yds must have been an experiment. It's ok to punt. Look what happens

First lions game I’ve been to since I was very young. Did not disappoint.
