Texans 14 point performance solidified their indisputable Tier 2 status. Right up their with Gutensheissenbumpst's Packers.

Uh oh, first Detroit with too many men on a key 4th down, now double reverse pass for INT. Very undisciplined.

As a friend wisely told me - at the end of the day it’s Sam Darnold and Jared Goff, do you really think they can win an important game?

Goff was not very good with the turnovers. However, they couldn't overcome their decimated defense. Kudos to Washington for a great game.

This apparent loss by Detroit is going to be devastating to the team and fanbase. It was supposed to be their year. Maybe too many injuries but I can empathize with their fans nonetheless.
I haven't watched Daniels a ton this year, but every time I have, he looks like the greatest QB of all time. WTF

Lions are 2nd tier along with the Packers and Vikings!

Alright! Now I don't have to hear how great Dan Campbell is until at least September

Definitely reminds of the 15-1 year where we lost to the Giants in the Divisional

I knew the Lions wouldn’t go very far in the playoffs. Didn’t think they’d get the crap kicked out of them like that though.
Bears gotta be kicking themselves over Jayden Daniels. That was my top QB in the draft. Never liked Caleb and Daniels had the higher ceiling with absurd athleticism.

Jayden Daniels. So much for the playoff lights being too bright for first time starters. He has that dog in him, no doubt about it.

I've been saying for years. The Lions don't want SBs. They just want to do good enough to not get fired.
We know how you feel Lions fans. Be the team all year only to get upset by some little dipsh*t upstart.
I have a feeling this was the Lions peak. Other teams are going to be fighting to overtake them now. The division will be harder. It's so hard to stay consistently on top. It's so hard to claw back three years in a row.

Also couldn't help but wonder how many rings we would have had we drafted Terry McLaurin instead of Jace Sternberger.

I reminisced and saw last year's Jordon Love versus Dallas as I watched Daniels dissect the Lions last night, like Love, he still has another rung on the ladder to climb, whatever happens, he has everyone calling him the next great one.
heart breaking loss for the Lions, and could possibly lose both OC and DC, this year may have been there best shot to get a owl.

That made me happier than it should, seeing Detroit lose.
At the same time, we definitely beat that Detroit team if we were playing like we were around Thanksgiving.

Answer: none. Rodgers would have found a way to choke it away. Besides, Terry probably would have been pushed out in favor of more Lazard, Kumerow, washed Cobb, or some other scrubs.

Wondered before the game how much it matters that Detroit had both coordinators interviewing for head coaching jobs. It can’t not be a distraction.
That said Dan Quinn was interviewing last year, got blown out, and clearly is doing alright this year. This loss shouldnt impact Glenn’s chances at all. Does make a ton of sense for him to go to New Orleans.

So what does the future look like for Jared Goff? I realize he is under contract until 2028, but if you're the Lions, you must be thinking that you made a huge mistake at this point. The Rams dealt him basically because they knew they'd never win a Super Bowl with him at the helm. So he ends up in Detroit with a juggernaut roster, and still can't get them over the hump.
In theory, would it have been possible for the Lions to amass this amount of talent while retaining Matthew Stafford? Because I am convinced that with Stafford, practically nothing would have stopped this Lions team. Maybe the Chiefs.
