Ok, not really, but this is as close as they have ever been to doing so.

It’s going to be an interesting season.

Kudos to the Motor City Kittys! I’m pulling for them this year. May even wear their hat. Camo version of course Wink

One of those ‘any given Sunday’ games, the Lions pulled it off.

I'm a Green Bay guy, so... That said, I'm always happy when Mahomes gets beat, so Nice Going, Lions! Cool

Guess they need to play all of their games on Thursday now

Didn’t watch the game, but I read a bit about it this morning. Apparently when Detroit sent QB, Matthew Stafford to the Rams they got 7 players for him. The Rams won a SB with Stafford, but the Lions got a QB that will play for years to come and several players that put them in position to beat KC last night. Sounds like this was no fluke, Detroit has a good coach and roster and will compete all year.

Best Lions player #19 in red? 4 drops including a tip for a pick 6. Game stats: one catch for 1 yard. Dropped passes that if caught would have extended drives.

If they can keep up this winning streak, they’ll never lose another Super Bowl.

That is where the sports betting comes into play. You can make a lot of money for people if you can lose a game.

You can't go undefeated if you don't win the first one. So they are off to a good start. Smile

And I heard they played the black national anthem before the game.

I’m not a pro football fan at all but I have watched so many cheer for the local team for years only to be heartbroken again and again. I’d really like to see the team do well for them.

Lions fans need to act like they've been here before.

And I mean since 1991.

Lions finished strong last year and improved the roster during the offseason. Expect good things.

Interesting game. Not what I expected, but considering the way the Lions ended last season not surprising. I hope they continue, but it’s too early in the season. The troubling fact is you never know which Goff is gonna show up on any given Sunday(and I speak as a Rams fan). He can be great or not so much so.

I hope Detroit fans can have as much to cheer for, for their Lions this year as the did in 1984 for their Tigers.

Wait . . . <checks math> . . . well, I must say that statement appears to add up. I'll have to bet the kids college fund on them this year.

I also don't follow the NFL but it's my understanding that if you include last season, they've won the last 10 or so games.
If true, I think they should get a little more credit than what many are giving them, particularly the announcers in the game when I was flipping past the game and then watched a little in the first half.
After listening to them for a few min. I surfed on.
