Detroit Lions leave the field at Levi's Stadium after a heartbreaking loss to the San Francisco in the NFC Championship game on Sun. Jan 28, 2024. (Joel Bissell | MLive.com)
The lions may have lost but us back in Detroit have won a team that brought our sense of community back together- even if it was for a short time ❤. Lions have a big heart! ❤️
Not over yet, they will come back stronger next year. Yes this was heartbreaking but why are we speaking like it's over? This was the first good year of many more to come
I am a die-hard 49ers fan and the Detroit Lions have no reason to be disappointed. THEY PLAYED A GREAT GAME AND A GREAT SEASON!! I tip my hat to the Detroit Lions on a season well done and bringing confidence and determination back to Detroit!!
as a diehard 49ers fan i respect the lions alot. They fought hard and made it to the championship. They did what they havent been able to do in 3 decades.
Lions have nothing to be ashamed of. Great game and excellent season for the Lions and Detroit fans alike. You are not judged by how you get knocked down but rather by how you get back up. Lions have a bright future ahead of them. And Detroit is in its own renaissance.
Nothi- We got so lucky that we even got here. We had our one chance and we fucked it up. The NFL next year will not be on our side and most teams now know how to beat us. We will be lucky to have 7 wins next year.
As a Niner fan I salute the Lions. You played your hearts out. Had you won I and Thousands of the Faithful would have been cheering you on against the Kansa City Chiefs.
The entire world would've been. Now we're stuck with a corny re-run of Full House and a massive drop in view ratings. No disrespect, but the Chiefs had unfinished business with the Lions.
As we are cheering for you. GG. We gotta remember the big picture, we’re only getting better. We’re finally gonna be able to rid the old contracts from Patricia and we’re a landing spot for free agency. We’re not losing anybody huge in free agency. We lost this battle, but the war rages on.

We’re not losing anybody huge in free agency and we’re gonna get a couple more key players in the draft as Brad Holmes has proven to do. We lost this battle, but the war rages on.

The lions lost, but they still did great. This is the first time they’ve been in like playoffs in 30 something years lions for life baby.💙💙💙 There is even Eminem in the background flipping off a Purdy fan 💙
Be quiet cowgirl fans you deserve everything you get your the worst fans ever Coming from a 49er fan have a sweet and lovely Superbowl watching my beloved Niners win it all😅😅😅
Horrible coaching up 24-10 in field goal range, after niners cut it to 14, and instead of kicking field goal and going up by three possessions, these clowns go for it on fourth down, and now theyre going home, game was never the same.
Yep everything you said is spot on and keep in mind what people don't realize too is if they would have kicked that field goal and went back up by three possessions, the 49ers would have had to start back over again from scratch but this time half the third quarter was already gone so they would have been deflated at that point. That single field goal would literally demoralize the whole 49ers team at that point. Because that's how everything happened, the 49ers at that point didn't have the momentum or the hope who are the confidence because they started the second half came down the field in the Lions held them to a field goal when I know they desperately wanted to score a touchdown. So by being held to a field goal I'm sure their hopes dwindled even more because they probably thought they couldn't do anything against that Lions defense at that point and if the Lions would have came back and kicked that field goal basically matching the field goal of the 49ers kicked prior to that, I guarantee the 49ers would have been just in the dumps because they would have saw the third quarter was already halfway over in a new by the time they got the ball back and came back up the field it would be close to the 4th quarter starting people don't realize how momentum and hope play a huge role in these type of games and by Dan Campbell going forward on 4th down and failing, it gave the 49ers the momentum and the biggest thing I gave them was hope. Because of 49ers knew they had to score and not let Detroit score. If they let Detroit score anything, even a field goal, they knew it was going to make it harder for them to overcome and by not taking the points and giving the ball to 49ers it gave them a shot in the arm
I''ve been a 49er fan for many, many years. But had so much fun during the Montana and Young years. But I always watched Detroit games when I could. Especially Barry Sanders. They have always been a team with great spirit, talent, and dedication to their fans. I wish all of them the very best, and a great return next year.
I don’t care if they lost their still are Detroit Lions they may the other team 49ers work for their money Go Loins !!! you’re still the best❤ lots of hugs, Kimberly and Al from WOLVERINE LAKE, Michigan Lions 🦁
that is a rough way to grow up east side is famously violent and the west side is pretty crazy these days, but those kids that grew up in the river must really have it the worst
@@claylarson3021 He’s referring to the original verse in “Don’t Stop Believin” Journey changed it from Detroit to San Francisco when they sang it at halftime.
Man i love these guys i know you don't see it now but this teams competitive nature is awesome 😎 next year boys next year work hard and keep plugging away 😂
The lions are great, they have the most beautiful future in front of them and they are not afraid to fight back against the teams. The lions are a great team. We would of been the one seed if we didn’t get screwed over by the cowboys in week 17. The 49ers are a good team to, we played our best and the 49ers did 2. Great season for the lions. Well be back next year and hopefully we play those 49ers again in the chip ❤. We will have a great 98 overall wr st.brown next year and 91 de hutch and Goff and Lapota and Gibbs and more dj reader great team ❤ let’s go lions!!!!!! ❤❤❤
@@papacum5772if Dan Campbell just takes that first field goal a lot of those dropped passes and fumbles and misconceptions probably never ever even happened
Correct. We are losing BJ next year so that scared me and also Dan Campbell is very aggressive so that if this next season it will start coming back to bite him especially with no OC
This loser mentality y'all have is so crazy smh we will be fine we have cap space to sign top free agents to push us over the hump next season this wasn't a Superbowl or bust season we was just trying to get some playoff wins an get some experience
@jaybrick8973 obviously you don't understand football its tough to return to the championship game let alone the super bowl The lions team is not complete like the 49ers and chiefs who are great on both sides of the field lions first off have issues tackling they lead the league in missed tackles furthermore there defense is not scary teams easily move the ball on them
This could either make or break the Lions they’ve responded well in progressing the past 3 seasons and they overachieved this season, if they get an edge rusher and corner next season they going on another run.
@@4luvofgod this wasn't supposed to be a Superbowl season of course we not complete this is only year 3 of the Campbell Holmes regime an we just got Ben Johnson to stay
THAT ROAR TURNED INTO A MEOW REALLY FAST IN THE END...❤😂❤😂❤😂 GREAT GAME MEN. THANK YOU FOR THE EXTREME EFFORTS. MY NINERS NEED THE PRACTICE OF THESE TYPES OF GAMES. THEY NEED TO KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT AND HOW TO EXTERMINATE BETTER TEAMS... AND PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT AS WE CAN SEE THESE LAST 2 PLAYOFF GAMES!!! SUPER BOWL BOUND... HERE WE COME.😇🤲🙏😇🤲🙏😇🤲🙏😤😤😤✨✨✨🏈🏈🏈🏆🏆🏆
Detroit, Has one (Hell of a team) Bar none. I am a bleed eagle's green man. But, Goff, He's amazing in the pocket, and your team is not to be taken lightly. Detroit has always been my 2nd team, and always will be. I'm just sad to see how the referees looked away every time a flag should have been thrown. All the best Detroit.
2 Touchdowns in 3 minutes one of which was a first play fumble, then 3 crucial dropped passes and bad decisions. Lions had a 91% chance of winning with 8 to go in the third. Either they choked beyond belief or the NFL is no different than the WWE.
@@saurabhpatel6630 u mean ever***? They were lucky to win the first two playoff games. And the way they played against the last 2 teams wasn't gonna work against a real good team and they paid the price
@@guataman24 dude! They haven’t played in this game since 1957! Who cares what they look like. This is a huge success! How can you call it a same old lions? Same old lions I remember is one that went 0-16 not too long ago
@@saurabhpatel6630 success, yes. But did you watch the game!!! Obvi not, no excuses, same ole Lions blowing it. It really was pathetic to watch them lose it when it was theirs to win
@@guataman24 this is the first big game this year they blew it! Every team in the country blew their game at one point. This just happens to be in playoffs! It’s ok to talk about this bad game but has nothing to do with same old lions
I’m sorry but Lions are way above average. They have done nothing but grow these past few years. Yes, defence is severely lacking. However the lions can become elite if they address their pass rush and secondary issues this off season. You forget the lions are the 3rd youngest team in the league and on the third year rebuild of a complete rebuild from scratch. Stop the hating.
Why bro, I understand why people be mad at him but on his 4th downs he called good plays receivers just dropped the ball multiple times. If half of the throws were caught we probably have an extra touchdown
