It's a shame the Giants traded that guy.

A team of destiny. We saved up all our karma for 50+ years for this season.

Hey Brian Branch is the early consensus for defensive rookie of the year.

Maybe win this game before jinxing them

Hutchinson is playing a great game against a good Chiefs O-Line. Really disrupting Mahomes.

 

[Black Adam]

Gotta give it up for the Lions D. Now give us that Hutchinson guy, dammit...

 

[Anointed One]

Hutch will be the highest paid defensive player in 2-3 years...

Lol Lions are permanently jinxed. Nothing I can do will make any difference. I keep hearing everyone jumping on their bandwagon all off season, but us true Lions fans know there's a better chance of them getting a top 2 pick than making a Superbowl.

They need to get Gibbs more involved...

 

[Fred_Delosantos]

thought for a moment they were going to call a penalty for hurdling. NFL always coming up with new ways to penalize...

Mentioned that earlier... see he's back now, but I was wondering if he got injured in that first series where he slipped, got back up, and then destroyed. But yah, get that man in there more.

Edit: Or actually don't... we want the Lions to lose lol (NFC).

Overall the Chiefs defense is playing a solid game, especially without Jones.

 

[Black Adam]

Ok, time to crank this shit up, Mahomes...

It always seems though it takes a couple weeks for offenses to get goin'. I know there's preseason and practice, but in a regular season game it's just a different intensity and you got crowd noise, etc. Usually week 2-3 is when you start seeing offenses really take off.

Hopefully that's not the case with the Lions when they play Seattle.

 

[Black Adam]

That shoulda been flagged...

 

[Picklerick 2.0]

Legit flag if you ask me.
