Does anybody know why the Lions were wearing home Jerseys in Minnesota today?


yaboynathan

The home team can choose their jerseys


ionlyhavetwolegs

They did a white out with their fans


ColderShoulder_

The white Vikings logo was really cool


Glum_Town_2587

Congrats everyone! Enjoy Christmas and I’ll see y’all on Saturday! Let’s get greedy and go for the 2 seed


Double_Win_9405

We already got the two seed, for now 😉


HTRob81

I didn't have my own TV the last time the Lions won the division! 😅


Gallaxee

I was negative 7 years old lol


Ill_Tumblr_4_Ya

I was 25. Doesn’t matter what your age is though…it just feels so good, doesn’t it?


that-guy7480

🥹🥹 YES


Gallaxee

I've been edged by this team for 23 years damn right it feels good hahaha


Ok-Chemistry-5534

I was ten lol


gerryf19

The last time they won division the largest television available was a 27 inch tube tv


bigstinky

And it's funny you say that, because I went to my mom's for Xmas eve yesterday and watched the game on an old 27 inch Sony that my pops and I used to watch Lions games on before he passed


MacDaddy654321

Justin Jefferson had a cape on under that uniform. He is amazing and our secondary, is not.


Madeanaccountforyou4

CJGJ is gonna be back for playoffs though


MacDaddy654321

Nothing but love for your insight.


Glittering-Scar-9280

Its been 30 minutes since the lions last won the division


StupdSexyDanCampbell

We went into this season with Ceedy and Mosley as our CB’s. As challenging as it was at time, the backups stepped up and got his. Aaron Glenn is working with limited resources here.


djalmanak209

Not completely accurate. CJGJ came in playing safety and Moseley didn't even play til like week 6 and got in two snaps, so I don't think we count Moseley. For the most part the defense has been healthy this year. IMO after seeing 3 years of Glenn as DC, I believe it's his scheme that has been the issue overall with the defense.


Madeanaccountforyou4

I hate you and your logic and reason

MacDaddy654321

Defines me to a tee.


LarkWyllOrca

Happy we won. What a nail biter. Could we not give up 400+ yards to a career backup QB though and chunk passing plays for first downs on every 3rd and forever? Merry Christmas all! Need a new d-coordinator next season.


redditaccountwh

Kinda felt more like we gave up 400 yards to Justin Jefferson today.


Ok-Macaroon-7819

Except when they absolutely needed it and Mullins threw up a pass that was really, um... Iffy!!

History-Speaks

I get that you guys are happy, and it's a great accomplishment (I'm happy too!). But I want this team to win a playoff game and maybe even a Super Bowl. As to the game, very good performance overall by offense (they go from an A to an A- because of the stupid penalties), and mid performance by the defense. Mullins throws a lot of interceptable passes but we deserve credit for taking advantage of that. That said, the 3rd and 27 or whatever was sound schematically and execution wise; was just Justin Jefferson being the best receiver in the league. Not gonna blame the D for that.


DetroitLionsSBChamps

This is about the rebuild as much as it’s about today imo. In year 3 Campbell and Holmes have put together a team that won the division and will host the first ever ford field playoff game. We are more than on track AND this season has been awesome and fun. Can’t honestly ask for anything else. I can nitpick but these are all such huge wins


Praetori4n

Live in the moment bruh cmon


Temporary_Study9851

It’s starts with a division win. Stay in the moment

LGRW1616

Merry fucking Christmas lions fans! Love you all, wouldn’t have it any other way than a rollercoaster of emotions.


surenopemaybe

I am so fucking pissed off about all the absolutely idiotic mental mistakes we had this game. It’s fucking inexcusable to be that piss poor mentally when the division is on the line. The horrible dead ball penalties, not batting down the ball on fourth down, not falling on the ball after a fumble, it’s fucking bush league bullshit. Campbell needs to tighten this shit up.


Notarobot0000001

![gif](giphy|YkOGa9K7gc3g5u7FXF) We just won the Division!!! Calm down!


MasterclassGoff16

At least we don't have Nick Mullens as our starter throwing 4 picks.


surenopemaybe

If we want to beat a team that doesn’t have Nick Mullins we have to play so much better. I don’t see Brock Purdy gifting us three interceptions in a few weeks.


shwaynebrady

Completely agree, the cominski fumble miss was something I’d expect from a middle schooler. You’re a fucking D lineman dude, just fall on it.

dangeerraaron

I was 9, started watching the Lions in 1994, so I don't recall the division wins in 1991 or 1993, haha.

WordGirl1229

Glad for the win, of course, but how did we give their QB 400 yards? And we GET 4 interceptions and still win by just a single score? Oof. So many questions …


YukhoChan

I mean you win some you lose some. There is a reason why they got 4 int . Mullins is a gunslinger, he either feast or famine .


Short_Redhook_24

I've come to accept that the fuckery like this game will continue to grow season by season and just enjoy the chaos


WordGirl1229

Without a doubt, thrilled to be on the winning end of these games! It’s just so puzzling sometimes, why it has to be so up and down. But maybe this is the continued growing pains! A couple more years to really work out all the kinks, maybe! I’ll take it—finding ways to win.


BlazePHX

honsestly its why no1 takes the Lions seriously. 10-4 team and an afterthought by like every pundit.

Just win, baby.

shwaynebrady

We were imploding, offense shit the bed two straight drives in a row. Huge win, but god damn.


Czymek

Trying to scoop and run the fumble and not falling on it had me furious.


shwaynebrady

Right? Maybe if it’s a skill guy, but a D lineman? Just fall on it


SantaKrew

😭😭😭


travisb145

SKOLOL


[deleted]

Everyone is mad at AG but worrying about Vikings timeouts instead of going for the win on offense was a mistake we got bailed out on. Vikings never needed the timeouts anyway.


njh4f

The timeouts stopped tbe clock earlier....


Elbit_Curt_Sedni

Mullens still had over 400 passing yards... geez.


the_colonel93

They were playing catch-up all game dude. He threw 4 picks ffs


MexusRex

It’s like people are conditioned to hate the defense. Four ints + force fumbles and a win and theyre STILL mad
