Vikings @ Lions SNF- LIVE FROM DETROIT

[mjsuax13]

Well- it’s coming down to this and my ass will be in attendance. I have a 6am flight from Vegas to Detroit and will be tuned up and ready to rock by kickoff. Detroit will be rocking tomorrow.

We all know the stakes. In my lifetime I can’t recall a home game this important. As a lions fan of over 40 years we have been mostly dogshit but the last 3 years have been a helluva ride. Will post pictures tomorrow.

GRIT! Go Lions!

[ChuckyTheGoat]

Enjoy, mj. Huge game.

The personnel guys lean to MINN here. Not that the Viking talent is overwhelming. Some question on how much DET has left with all the injuries.

And one tactical question: *If Campbell knew that it all came down to THIS GAME, why was he such a tough-guy about the San Francisco game?

It's about setting up your team to get to the Bowl. Watch the Chefs tomorrow. I'm anticipating a massive laydown, b/c Reid knows he has a professional team. They don't need to run thru a wall to prove to everyone they're tough.

Campbell is a meathead. He’s a great guy but he would run through a brick wall even if the gate were open. I have no clue why they didn’t sit last week.

suax, safe travels and enjoy the game!

Forgot to mention this previously but your special teams coach, Dave Fipp, went to my high school and was a grade or 2 above me.

[Headsterx]

Oh man, that place should be rocking tonight! Enjoy the game.

[veriableodds]

Cold weather= no thanks. Keep safe have fun.

[ChuckyTheGoat]

Hey, MJ. Belichick used to do the same kind of thing. Welker got injured one year in a meaningless game and was lost for the playoffs.

I'll be rooting for the Lions. Long ways from the Wayne Fontes rasputin era.

DET vs BUF would be my ideal SB. Chance for two long-suffering fan-bases to get a taste.

[ChuckyTheGoat]

I jumped in a time-machine and saw the Final:

17-16, Lions.

[gauchojake]

I’ll be at a meaningless Rams game rooting for Jimmy G and Ronnie Rivers. Have fun- should be a blast.

The Detroit Lions have historically been profitable against the Minnesota Vikings heading into tonight’s huge division battle for the #1 seed in the NFC.

The Lions have covered 8 straight games against the Vikings, including a 31-29 win as 1-point road underdogs in October. Detroit, 11-4-1 ATS on the season, are 2.5-point home favorites for their Week 18 finale which kicks off at 8:20 pm on NBC. Early betting action is leaning slightly towards Detroit, with 53% of bettors taking them to cover the spread.

Jared Goff has also been red hot, having thrown 3+ TD passes in each of his last 4 games. The Lions gunslinger has launched 2+ TDs in 3 of his last 4 games versus Minnesota. A Same Game Parlay on the Lions to cover the spread and Goff to toss 2+ touchdown passes pays odds of +216.

To the post- cold weather.
They play in a dome.

[mjsuax13]

Gotta pace myself fellas. 8:20pm kick. You know me though… could end up at LEGENDS with a duffel bag.

Meet me at Kid Rocks concert, I’ll be standing next to the lochness monster.

Free Kid Rock concert? Have a day, mj. We're all jealous.

Is Darren McCarty there? $100 donation if he is.

[Itsamazing777]

Anzelone is playing. We got this.

[ChuckyTheGoat]

Two awards that surely go to the Vikings:

*Coach of the Year = O'Connell
*Comeback Player of the Year = Darnold

...Vikings missing some throws.
...I'm going to say that the Lion attrition comes into play. MINN wins late (imho).

[ChuckyTheGoat]

Stuff the Lions here, and they'll still get the score.

[darrell74]

Hope you're having fun MJ
Let's finish this second half strong and cash

[darrell74]

Lions, unpredictability, with a bend don't break defense in goal to go all night.
Vikings leaving a shit ton of points off the board

[DwightShrute]

looks like you're having fun

[ChuckyTheGoat]

Wire-job, I think.

[Steelers05]

Gibbs 4 tds

Rough night for Sammy D

[darrell74]

That will do it
Super Bowl goes through Detroit in the NFC

Congratulations all Lion backers

Vikings - you can set your watch to the meltdown. Now they get to go on the road to LA.

[ddittie]

I still think Detroit loses to Philly. I want them to win this year, but can't picture them beating Philly, Baltimore, Buffalo, or Kansas City.

Right. I think LAR gets the upset there.

[mjsuax13]

I’m alive but barely. Went hard from 2pm until 4am. People were real fukked up in Detroit yesterday and last night. Downtown was rocking. Started in the hotel lobby, then Gillys Detroit, then on to Greektown Casino and we finally wrapped up the pre game at a little bar called The Baltimore where we all proceeded to rip tequila shots. On to Ford Field!

By the time we entered the stadium at 7:45pm we were tuned up. What a game. It was very close/tense for a long time and lots of shit calls, dumb plays and mediocre results. Then in the late 3rd and 4th quarter the LIONS noticeably were the more physical team and took over. It was nuts on that 4th and 2 10 yard TD. What a fun game.

Question for you guys: Are Vikings fans always so miserable? Lots of shit talking and delusion about what they are gonna do next. You just lost, say good game and shut the fukk up. Thats what’s next. Some little shit chirped at us about “Detroit being a dump, your city is a shithole, we own you, blah blah blah.”

The books Do. They are the favorite to win the Super bowl over all those teams.

Right. I think LAR gets the upset there.

I agree. Their fans have already decided they are beating the Rams.

[ChuckyTheGoat]

Cool pictures, mj. I think the Viking fans are honestly bitter from all the years of Close But No Cigar.

I have one observation, and you tell me if you think I'm wrong: *I expect the Detroit HFA to be REALLY STRONG this year.
...It's been a long-long time. You can see that the fans are hungry.
...Looks like they have the right team. As long as Goff doesn't get injured.
...I've seen this type of angle b4. Green Bay was on the precipice in 1996, weren't going to be denied @home.
