**Rams at Lions (-3, 51.5), SNF Wild Card Weekend Game #5** (1 Viewer)

[IHEARTFF]

TWO HOME PLAYOFF GAMES

Why not 3?

 

[N Zone]

Buccaneers or Eagles will be in Detroit next week. Congrats Lions fans! Hell of a game.

 

[Insein]

What a win!

 

[GrantK]

Congrats Detroit!

 

[dmac37]

I'm 62 years old, just witnessed my 2nd Lions playoff win!!!!

 

[Wingnut]

Congrats Lions!!!!!

>>With Lions about to win tonight, Dolphins now have NFL's longest ongoing drought since last playoff win (2000). A quarter century of bad decisions and some bad luck. Sad and embarrassing for a franchise once associated with excellence.<<

I love the Goff and Reynolds revenge.

 

[IHEARTFF]

Legs 4-5 of a 6 game parlay.

One to go!

Leg 6 better be backed by josh Allen or uh some hedging may be needed

 

[Alex P Keaton]

Ball game

Congrats BL

 

[dickey moe]

Congrats Lions!

 

[QuizGuy66]

YEAH!! WAY TO GO LIONS!!

I want to root for the Lions but a Rams win would be better for the Bucs if they manage to beat Philly at home this week, re-match of sorts with the Rams-Playoffs
A Detroit win and the Bucs or Philly would play them next week, no weather issues which helps

Lions 28...they don't kick field Goals
Rams 27

Hope this is an entertaining game

your post reads like it’s for both teams

 

[Yankee23Fan]

Congrats Lions fans. That was fun.

 

[Capella]

and this is when the keyboard warriors tell people how to take time outs, i mean they draft fantasy football teams

It’s just basic math bro. You don’t have to be a genius to figure this stuff out. Timeouts are critical.

no, they had 1 plus the 2 minute warning so they were gambling on a pass on third down had they stopped them

They wasted a timeout on a 3 and 11 instead of making it a 3 and 16. I’m obviously not pretending to know more than Stafford or McVay but that’s just really bad.

 

[Insein]

Rams cover though

 

[ignatiusjreilly]

Not a coincidence that Lions win yet another one-score game

 

[Moonlight]

Stafford is a warrior so hard to root against him

 

[jobarules]

Kind of feel like McVay blew that game

 

[Andy Dufresne]

Hey Lions fans

 

[GregR]

Nothing against the Rams, have often cheered for them in games. But glad to see the Lions get one here.

They kicked a FG bro. Way off

Congrats Lions and Lions fans, and Jared Goff.

ah, i thought you meant the timeout before the 2 minute warning they didn’t take. they needed the other one for sure

 

[crushedspirit]

It really came down to the red zone FGs vs TDs

 

[hagmania]

Favorite game I can remember watching for a while.

I don’t wanna jinx it by naming it.

I do have a small wager on the Bills U though.

 

[Zeppelin]

Forward down the field,
A charging team that will not yield.
And when the Blue and Silver wave,
Stand and cheer the brave.
Rah, Rah, Rah.
Go hard, win the game.
With honor you will keep your fame.
Down the field and gain,
A Lion victory!

 

[ProstheticRGK]

Congrats on shaking the monkey off, Lions’ fans! Great shot at the NFCCG now. Team of destiny?

 

[grif]

Surreal, long time coming

 

[Man In The Box]

Congrats Lions fans, long time coming. Hope you guys win the whole damn thing.

 

[Mt. Man]

Only 3 Detroit points in the 2nd half.
Lions D far from perfect, but kept Rams out of the end zone enough.

2001 actually my fellow Fins fan.

Edit my bad....2000. The Lamar Smith game vs the Colts.

Jesus.....

24-23
Detroit won by a point as I predicted but I was kinda pulling for the Rams as I posted

 

[travdogg]

Congrats Lions, you eked one out against a very good and experienced team. That's not easy.

I hope the Rams reload, and don't lose Stafford/Donald to retirement. Other than them and Kupp, this is a pretty young team.

Lions gotta be hoping Tampa Bay wins tomorrow, as they an ill-equipped to face the Lions. Eagles are a wildcard, where they could play awful or great.

 

[crushedspirit]

Congrats to the Lions fans, it's been a long time coming.

 

[Desert_Power]

A trade that worked for both teams I'd say.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Honestly that blown DPI was literally the win or loss.

It’s insane that’s not reviewable by an independant crew in NY.

It was 1st and goal at the ~15? Absolute game-changing missed call.

 

[jobarules]

Kind of feel like McVay blew that game

Punt sealed it.

No clue why they didn't try and get 5 yards on 3rd down there

 

[Pip's Invitation]

Absolutely deranged how the Rams blew those timeouts tonight.

On my text chat with college buddies, I said that could be big, and it was.

 

[rockaction]

Congrats Detroit fans!

 

[travdogg]

Covering Monty with a DE (and St. Brown earlier) didn't help.

ETA: Clearly these were 2 very evenly matched teams.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

yeah, congrats DET fans.

I hate the Rams. Like haaaate the Rams. But they go absolutely jobbed at the end of this game.

The weird use of TOs was a gaff for sure. But it shouldn’t have gotten to that point.

 

[dmac37]

Got to believe we can beat both the Bucs or hapless Eagles at home. Can the hot Packers go into SF and beat the 9ers to give the Lions 3 home games

It probably doesn’t matter but you’re right that the eagles have the talent to beat them. They just haven’t shown that in a couple months.

Last time the lions won a playoff game I was a sophomore just north of Detroit (12 mile).

Restore the roar!

I have rarely commented about bad calls in over 20 years here, but that one really bugs me. He stretched his shirt, prevented the catch. Easy peasy call, Rams probably win. Sucks for LA, but it's just one bad call and surely a few went against the Lions. This one just kinda decided the game, imo. Oh well, it's the NFL.

 

[Zeppelin]

Damn does this feel good. Well worth the long wait.

It’s going to be wild for lions fans cheering for the next week.

Won’t lie, would love to see a Lions versus Texans Super Bowl.
