As a Niners guy, congratulations to the Lions for earning todays victory and the NFC North crown!!! Looks like you guys have a great young team and could be poised to own that division for a while! Way to put 30 years to rest, and (maybe) see you guys in the playoffs!

You’d think the Lions were 4-11 reading some posts on this thread.

Home playoff game coming. Gonna be loud. Gonna be fun. I think the ceiling is one playoff win this year with this defense, but it’s fun to see emerge.

If Mullens doesn't throw a total duck there for the INT, Cominsky would have had a rough time there for a while. All you have to do is fall on it, no need for a scoop and score. It's over if you just land on it. 

Mullens bailed him out there and I'll happily take it.

Lions 2023 NFC North Champs!

Are the Bears attempting to imitate the Maize & Blue (perfect for Justin Fields) - or, perhaps - Princeton?

(I’m referring to - the striped helmets the Bears are wearing.)

Lions still one of only 2 NFC teams with 11 wins after Dallas loses.  Philly plays Monday night. Some significant home field advantage in play for playoffs.
