I tried to hold my nose and root for GB but I just couldn’t I tried rooting for the Lions but I just can.t stand Dan Campbell. I mean I REALLY can’t stand him. Arrogant and stupid. So I just watched. Man, those are two really good teams. Hard nosed, hard fought, heavyweight bout of rock em sock em football. We have our work cut out for us. But, hey, that’s ok. I’m just praying we stay healthy so we can see how we match up. Should be fun!

He is one big ol' meathead, isn't he? And he was about an inch from being a complete moron. Mark my words, his hyper aggression is going to bite him in the ass in the playoffs against someone. It might work in the macro, but the playoffs are the micro. His postgame speeches are nauseating. The Lions are definitely a very good team, zero doubt about it, but I'm no fan of Campbell. The media loves him of course because it makes great theater.

Campbell's a fucktard. I think they lose to the Bills and the Vikings.

Really a close score last night but the loins really dominated in stats. Looking forward to see how the Bills match up with them.
I still don’t think the Lions will be representing the NFC in the superbowl.

The game went largely how I thought, and it confirmed something for me: the Vikings can take either/both of those teams in the coming rematches.
I'm hoping that we've had all these close wins while failing to "peak" too early...and we're saving our best for the stretch/playoff run.
Wishing a great season for the team, Especially Mundt and Kwenkeu!

Agreed. Campbell isnt a very likable guy, but I would rather see Detroit win the NFC than Philly. Winning last night helps that.
Det and Philly are the most complete teams in this conference. I think MN and GB are tier 2. I know division games are usually close/throw the records out the window type events, but I dont think GB would have hung with Lions that closely if Detroit wasn't out about 8 D starters (I exaggerate on the #).
I wanted Detroit to win last night for that reason plus it pretty much knocks GB out of division contention.
With that out of the way, now we can hope that the Bills or someone can take one from the Kitties and hopefully we take care of our own business.
Lets make that last week count, but we may have to go 4/1 to make that come true.

I hope not or we will hold another record at the top of the list.
