The Lions are in Minneapolis facing the Vikings with a chance to win their first conference title since 1993.

Lions currently knocking on the door of their opening drive.

Minnesota has plenty of time to score a TD here. Ugh. Why couldn’t the Lions have simply made an extra point? Why did they have to go 3-and-out when they had a 9-point lead in the 4th quarter? Why did they have to get 2 pre-snap penalties to kill their last drive when they only needed 2 more first downs to end the game?

Campbell being a meathead coach like a Vrabel. It makes a team hyper competitive and better overall but I can’t remember the last meathead to win much that mattered

Fun fact; The TB Bucs have won the NFC "north" more recently than the Lions.  (it was central at the time)  It's in many ways unfathomable. 

That trivia fact is now begone.  Thank god Kurt Coupons wasn't playing.
