The Lions winning the Super Bowl would be the best story in a long time

Lions are the real deal

There’s always going to be a next dynasty. There always is. You can’t stop that. Every decade had a dynasty.

I just don't understand why you care about a record the Patriots don't even have.

A. They share the record.

B. Brady owns the record outright.

I do....

The franchise is tied with the record. We don't need another franchise up their with us. With the Steelers you can always say the Pats went through the Steelers for half their titles so we have the edge (and most people wouldn't argue that). Care about the team more than a player record.

I let that thinking go, it’s kind of petty and after pondering it I realized we are starting to remind ourselves as Steelers fans from years ago. They sat atop their pedestal with 4. In a 4 year period the Pats were at 3 and one behind. Steelers then won a couple and went ahead of the 49ers. Pats won another 3 and tied them and they had to share it. Now you have 2 franchises that don’t want to share with the 49ers. Have fans that feel threatened by Mahomes for Tom Brady’s legacy. It’s kind of crazy fandom. Live your best life and whatever happens, happens. Fans don’t control the outcomes.

49ers about to choke too

Their defense looks flat

worst possible start for those of us that want to preserve Tom Brady's (and Rob Gronkowski's) status as the greatest of all time

 

[sb1]

Sorry these Gronk FanDuel commercials are cringe

Especially by taking down the KC Swifties.

It would be akin to the lowly Patriots taking out the Greatest Show on Turf looking for a repeat in 01.

I told people not to sleep on Detroit

 

[carmelo15]

Damn lions fan travel well for a team that has done jack **** for like 30 years

 

[festy1986]

These lions uniforms are fire.

I remember when we had good uniforms.

 

[Triumph]

Lions are the real deal

They have weapons

Brown is a 1500 yard WR

 

[amfootball]

Go Lions!

Because one will be tied in a single Super Bowl and one will take 4 Super Bowls. For all you know Mahomes wins this year and that’s it. It’s ducking hard to win a Super Bowl.

But we don't even have the record.

We literally don't have the record you care so much about protecting.

 

[carmelo15]

Have not seen much of LaPorta, but he looks a little heavy-legged, no? I mean, he's swifter than Henry, but that's not saying much.

I’m pretty sure he’s hurt

 

[Santi]

Mahomes gonna end up with more rings than Brady, makes me sick.

Ok, ok we get it. You've been talking like they've already been beat. They haven't.

I mostly agree. In truth I don’t feel like being negative and rooting against things I have no control over that the team isn’t actively playing against. That said, in a hypothetical either or scenario, I prefer the Chiefs and Mahomes
