**SNF Vikings at Lions** (-3, 56) 8:20 (1 Viewer)

[Zow]

Van Ginkel about a half inch from a pick 6.

Microcosm of this night so far.

 

[Mt. Man]

Gibbs x3!

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Vikings 4 trips inside the red zone and have 3 field goals to show for it
That's the ball game, you can't settle for field goals

Not Sam Darnold's best performance

If they just took the FGs they'd have 15 points.

My point was you don't take the 1-seed and beat the Lions by just kicking FGs

 

[Insein]

Game

 

[DA RAIDERS]

Night night

 

[Man In The Box]

Gibbs called game.

 

[fred_1_15301]

Go for 2

 

[Penguin]

It's ovah Johnny

 

[ignatiusjreilly]

FYI, I know people have mixed opinions of ProFootballDoc, but he's saying Arnold's injury looked like a tibial fracture

 

[dickey moe]

This will go down as the biggest Minnesota choke job since '98

It's not a choke job. The Lions are just better.

 

[BassNBrew]

Gibbs...would have been nice during the FF season instead of tonight.

 

[rockaction]

Fifteen points. Have fun with the five seed, Sam.

First round exit. Hold on to your McCarthys.

 

[ignatiusjreilly]

The speed with which Gibbs turned that corner was freakin' amazing!

 

[IHEARTFF]

Maybe Herbert and Stroud will be more electric

 

[travdogg]

Gibbs x3!

The argument against 1st round RBs was always silly. We just had a few years where nobody was special.

 

[fred_1_15301]

For a coach as aggressive as DC, I’m surprised he isn’t going for 2. Make it a 3 score game

 

[ignatiusjreilly]

Gibbs...would have been nice during the FF season instead of tonight.

Uh, he has been doing it all season

You take every single point you can in the first half, then take chances in the second. They didn't take that first FG, then chased those 3 a second time. Getting zero points on goal to go twice gives the other team energy.

 

[Dan Lambskin]

Gibbs!!!!!!

 

[JoeJoe88]

Gibbs...would have been nice during the FF season instead of tonight.

What you mean, he won me a Championship Week 17

 

[dmac37]

Gibbs so fast, blew by 24 with his arms just pawing at him as he leaves him in the dust

 

[kutta]

Oh hell yes!!!

 

[calcinorjones]

Congratulations Detroit. Going all the way!

 

[Zow]

This will go down as the biggest Minnesota choke job since '98

It's not a choke job. The Lions are just better.

I didn’t think so the first half.

 

[IHEARTFF]

For a coach as aggressive as DC, I’m surprised he isn’t going for 2. Make it a 3 score game

It’s already a 5 score game

 

[rockaction]

The argument against 1st round RBs was always silly.

No it was not. The rookie pay scale and premium positions determined it. It's still a relatively bad bet on a bad proposition.

This game.

If they play 10 games it’s probably 6/4

Whatchootalkingbout Wiilis? Gibbs was a badass during the FF playoffs.

[mr roboto]

If Minnesota offense could’ve scored a couple times, this would be a basically a tied ball game right now.

This performance would have won me the FBG Bowl.

Nahhh. Lions win this 8 out of 10 times, IMO.

Leads the NFL in TDs. Was RB2 coming into the week. Someone else on your team let you down, not Gibbs.

 

[BLOCKED_PUNT]

I know Dak had a bad year before he got hurt but I think he's p solid as is Mayfield and Daniels did well this year. Hurts is p good so yeah, Goff could be the best.

 

[DA RAIDERS]

Need a quick score here.

 

[Penguin]

For a coach as aggressive as DC, I’m surprised he isn’t going for 2. Make it a 3 score game

25-9 is still a 2 score game

 

[Todem]

Now it’s most likely over.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Coming into Week 18, Goff has completed at least 75.0% of his passes in eight games this year, matching Tom Brady’s single-season NFL record from 2007.

Tonight: 25/31 80.65% 27/33 81.8%

Agree to disagree.

If my aunt had wheels, she'd be a bicycle.

 

[Gr00vus]

Lions doing a job on Jefferson tonight.

Best week of the year was 28.6, tonight 33 and counting.

 

[BLOCKED_PUNT]

isn't he the fastest rb in the league? I swore I read/heard that somewhere

 

[Snotbubbles]

Anzalone's been holding Hockenson all night.

 

[mr roboto]

Lions found the one ref crew who doesn’t like DPI

 

[fred_1_15301]

25-9 is still a 2 score game

Doh!

 

[simsarge]

4 Trips, 3 FGs in a MUST win game is a choke. They're not going to the SB out of the Wild Card.

 

[ignatiusjreilly]

Hey @BobbyLayne has anyone written the article about all of Detroit's defensive penalties this year? Feels like it happens multiple times every game. Is it a case of Glenn just coaching them to be aggressive, and the penalties are a consequence of that? Feels like if they wanted to stamp them out, they could have done so by now

He’s rb2 in most formats.

 

[Uncle Leo]

Some tell Sam that Akers ain’t Gibbs.
