“Let’s Go!” - Rich Eisen Reacts to the Surprising Chiefs vs Lions Matchup to Kick Off the NFL Season 

As a 23 yo lions fan. This is the biggest game I’ve seen the Lions play.

As someone who’s starting to get tired of the Bills and seeing the Chargers blow 4th quarter leads, I find this matchup intriguing. A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.

Love it. Bring the heat. Go LIONS!

GO LIONS!!! I bought my tickets all ready!!!

Stoked, not scared! One Pride! Go Lions!

Remember yesterday when you said the Lions weren't worthy of the opening game? Pepperidge farms remembers

Unexpected. BUT! The last time Goff and Mahomes dueled it's being considered one of the greatest regular season games of all time.

Rich pulling the Rocky card by calling Hutchinson ADRIAAAAAAN

Ravens fan, been pulling for the Lions since the Orlovsky 0-16 year. Let's goooooooo.

Now I’m even more pissed about the Jameson Williams suspension

2018 week 11 rams vs chiefs is one of the greatest offensive shootouts ever. Geoff vs Mahomes is warranted.

As a 26 year old lions fan, I’ve never been so excited in my life. I hope the limelight doesn’t ruin the season, but I’m just so excited for this team!

Let’s go lions!! My dad was a die hard lions fan unfortunately he won’t be here to see the love his favorite team is getting. Rather play the chiefs early than later when they are rolling

Could be a playoff preview…WE SEE YOU LIONS !!

One pride! Let’s go! Win or lose, someone’s losing a kneecap

Im actually excited to watch this one

As a chiefs fan I love the lions! Dan Campbell is a dawg and goff had such an underrated season last year. Having Jameson Williams would’ve been so huge for this game but nevertheless it should be a hell of a game.

Lions finished 8-2 and have greatly improved since then too. Lions are a 'new' team to watch instead of Bills or Bengals vs Chefs part like 4. NFC contenders should tune in intrigued to see what the Lions can do who are 9th in superbowl odds. Lions and Chiefs had the 2 best offenses in the league last 10 weeks and both top 5 overall. NFC north opponents will tune in to "see if Lions actually deserve to be the favourite in the division" Alot of people root for the Lions as underdogs and a win will make them a league favourite the rest of the year. The Lions in week 18 kicked out Rodgers and the Packers in Lambeau after everyone picked the Packers to win. (It was the final regular season game of the year in primetime and Lions closed it with a bang) Heading into this game everyone will pick the Chiefs to win, Lions will circle the calendar and train hard for months to win this game. Lions will watch the Chiefs raise their banner in front of them. The Dan Campbell Lions will want the game more. The Lions have the opportunity to reward the league 2 times in a row for picking them. As for Eagles not being picked well simple you would rather have the rematch later in the year when both teams have their legs under them and winning late in the year is a better indicator of how you will play in the playoffs

Super Bowl preview right here

Let's go Chiefs!

Let’s go Lions!!

That will be a heck of a game!

If Aiden Hutchinson intercepts Mahomes, or the Lions pull a trick play and win, this team will be soaring.

Adrian Hutchinson? Its Aiden. Lol😂

Lions are fun to watch! It should be a great game.

I 100% respect it NFL. Good choice

We here 🦁 and will prove it

2:43 That was the biggest game of BS I've ever seen 😂😂

HERE WE GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GO LIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Let's Go Lions 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

What did we all say before LETS GO!!! Cause holy crap we all say it WAY. TOO. MUCH. 😂

Only reason I'm worried is that the Lions usually don't start off the season very well.

Bengals fan here....GO LIONS!

LFG!! 🦁

I always sip the Kool aid as a Lions fan. First time in decades I think it's real.

well deserved Lions, I hope you show up and give the Chiefs a good punch in the mouth in their own stadium. even losing a close game will be a statement.

I like Detroit. And I am tired of the Chiefs winning. But a Lions' loss could help my NFC squad down the road in the playoff picture. ....I've never been more conflicted with an opening night match-up.

4MONTHS...FAMILY..WE HAVE LESS THAN 4 MONTHS UNTIL PRO FOOTBALL TIME RETURNS.........

As a 30 year old lions fan (born 3 months after their last playoff win) I can’t wait for this season opener Edit: 31….. god I’m old

As a Chiefs fan, I applaud the Lions fans enthusiasm. It's the childlike wonder that's refreshing.

Adrian Hutchinson wow didn’t know the Hutchinson family had this many athletes

Great last line!

America ... meet Ben Johnson 🔥🔥🔥

Usually Chiefs defense struggle early in the season so the game should be competitive. Could come down to a field goal either way.

As a Vikings fan, I look forward to finally dispelling or confirming the hype. We need to know if we should tank early 😅

CJGJ is gonna be pumped considering the last time he faced off against Mahomes was in the Super Bowl. I really hope both teams show up for real and throw down, cuz last year’s kickoff game was a total nonstarter. Go Lions!!!

They will meet in the first game and the last game and the Lions will be victorious in both. Book it.

Lions have a lot of positive momentum going right now

Rich you literally said this wouldn’t be exciting yesterday

Mahomes has never lost a season opener

Advantage Lions, I could be wrong, but it gives the visitors bulletin board material.

GO CHIEFS♥️💛♥️💛♥️💛♥️💛♥️💛♥️💛♥️💛♥️

Andy Reid is 27-4 following a bye week in his career... so with that ridiculous record with only one extra week to prepare, do we think the Lions have ANY chance when Reid gets an extra 4 MONTHS to prepare for Detroit??? Highly doubtful.

All last season I kept getting impressed by how good the Lions were despite their record. I wouldn't be at all surprised to see them come out swingin'.

That 2018 Rams vs Chiefs game was pretty epic.

Oddly, Geoff is the only player that’s beaten him 1-0, and Rogers never??

This level of hype for a game that is months away, a regular season game, of a season that was ALWAYS going to come, and was ALWAYS going to have some good games.....man, you all deserve $150 priced jerseys lol.

💙🦁👊

The Chiefs are still the superior team.

And got it done..21-20

All roads go through Detroit! Go Lions!

I want that poster! "Adrian" and Travis" Awesome

You wanna be the best you gotta beat the best.

This is a massive, massive game. Any Chiefs fan here that may read this: you're going to be sweating in the 2nd half of this game. I won't say the Lions will win, but I will say the Chiefs better be ready to go. This WILL be a one-possession game in the 4th quarter, I'll eat my hat if it isn't.

while I am optimistic for the Lions and I'm pumped for a rematch of Goff v. Mahomes, I have a sinking feeling that this will go very badly for Detroit...

I call that 2018 Rams Chiefs game the Madden game because watching the game it looked like 2 kids playing Madden against each other.

As a lions fan this is one of the happiest days ever!

I was thinking the Chargers. I am pleasantly surprised

So Rich is just gonna pretend that 24 hours earlier he hadn't dismissed the Lions as a bad option.

Lions are definitely building something. Great kickoff game at Arrowhead.

Called it

Historically, Andy Reid has had the Lions' number. His last several games against them have been blowouts. Expect more of the same

This is the best case scenario for the Chiefs.

I'm rooting for Lions to win. I don't want Chiefs to win.

Perfect way to live up to all that 'VILLAIN' gear for the Lions

Lionnation!!! 🎉🎉

They going to take the “L” . GO CHIEFS!!!!!

"Adrian Hutchinson" 😂 c'mon Rich, It's Aiden bro

Its Aidan Rich.....AIDAN...not Adrian. 🤣😂LETS GO LIONS!!!

The NFL did this to ressurect Goff vs Mahomes in that 50+ point per team thriller from a few years ago.

The Lions are gonna do it to em.

As a raiders fan Rich, PLEASE stop bringing up your failed take of them winning the division. Just let us fly under the radar for a bit.

I like the Lions. Seems to me this coach will play anybody right after playing anybody and the team seems like they are DOWN for that!

Chief's 38 Lions 13. It won't be pretty. 🎉😂.

Nothing like an Alabama vs Toledo tune up game to start the season for the chiefs

Hope the lions win an show that they should've been in the playoffs instead

Bricked! 🧱

Chief nation is like, really Rich...

called him Adrian Hutchinson, ain't Rich a Michigan fan? lmao

I bet when the lions see that banner being lifted is going to give them a hell of a boost to give it everything they got

Training wheels are coming off, buttercup!

I could be wrong I think the Lions started off Slow the last 2 seasons

Jared Goff vs Patrick Mahomes. (. Replay 2018 Game of the year)

Place your bets in Vegas now, Lions

Did you know that was MAHOMES Worst Game ever in his short NFL career, Pat Himself gave the Rams 3 Td's himself. And the Chiefs Lost 54 to 51. He was intercepted & Stripped 3 x Leading to 3 Rams Scores.

Richard Eisen will pick the Raiders to win the AFC West. 🙃

Lions fans are pumped. The comments section was filled with Koolaid. Gonna be a fun year

I believe the Bills open against an easier team...NYJ. Rich says 'Thanks for that.".

This can be a very bad start for the lions I'm a lions fan but I got a bad feeling about this game

Gooooo lions 🙏
