Thursday Night NFL Opener - Lions v. KC
Mates,
NFL starts tonight and the Lions are in KC to start the season against the Chiefs. I think the point spread is 4.5 pts, and I'm told the Chiefs are going to be without their all-everything TE, Kelce.
I can't tell you much about either roster other than of course Hutchinson playing for our hometown Lions.
I think the Lions will have a respectable season but tough, tough way to open the season on the road vs. the defending Super Bowl champs.
Who is going to win tonight?
And for the Fantasy Football folks, do you have anyone playing tonight?
Go Lions, March on down that Field!

the all fake punt offence, do it and be legends
September 7th, 2023 at 8:47 PM ^
This was a staple for me in Joe Montana Sportstalk Football on the Genesis. I’d use it on first down and the announcer was amazed everytime!
September 7th, 2023 at 8:39 PM ^
KC has a Brain Cook?
Unverified Voracity lives on in Missouri

“Micheal Danna …. Michigan”
nice
September 7th, 2023 at 8:40 PM ^
82 yd drive so far.
please hand me the blue kool-aid shooters.
September 7th, 2023 at 8:41 PM ^
The Lions running game is going to be dangerous
September 7th, 2023 at 8:42 PM ^
Gibbs might have scored if he hadn't fallen down
September 7th, 2023 at 8:48 PM ^
Stokes? Those younger guys just need some time.
September 7th, 2023 at 8:42 PM ^
My god that run could have gone forever. Turf monster 7, Lions 7
September 7th, 2023 at 8:42 PM ^
holy crap. 14 plays. 91 yds. TD!!!
September 7th, 2023 at 8:44 PM ^
Why did you do this to me XM! I am watching this team and excited for them, please don't get me hooked on the Lions. I can't have my heart broken by them again!!
September 7th, 2023 at 8:49 PM ^
You can.
And you will.
September 7th, 2023 at 8:43 PM ^
Touchdown Lions.
They looked great on that drive
September 7th, 2023 at 8:44 PM ^
I don't even root for the Lions, but I'm excited.
September 7th, 2023 at 8:44 PM ^
so weird to the Lions be good
September 7th, 2023 at 8:47 PM ^
They look crisp!
With OL surge. And great play calling. And some nice Goff accuracy and patience.
September 7th, 2023 at 8:44 PM ^
March to the Super Bowl continues…
September 7th, 2023 at 8:45 PM ^
Ballsy call by Campbell and rewarded with a long TD drive. Gotta love the coach
September 7th, 2023 at 8:45 PM ^
This is not your father’s Lions.
Lion white uniforms are one of the very best.
September 7th, 2023 at 8:45 PM ^
Wow. Excellent drive. My Lions mentality says we’ll have the rug pulled out from under us soon. But in the meantime, like what I see so far.
September 7th, 2023 at 8:46 PM ^
It's so weird to have hope for the lions and it doesn't seem like a stretch.
September 7th, 2023 at 8:47 PM ^
hutch just got full-on tackled. throw the darn flag!
September 7th, 2023 at 8:53 PM ^
Yes, he’s reliving his college days. Blatant holding not called. Refs are KC homies.
September 7th, 2023 at 8:48 PM ^
Blatant hold against Hutch not called
edit: on back to back plays
September 7th, 2023 at 8:48 PM ^
Hutch got put in a choke hold on that play
September 7th, 2023 at 8:49 PM ^
Chiefs' RT is very grabby.
September 7th, 2023 at 8:49 PM ^
Chiefs RT is straight up bear hugging Hutchinson.
Holding appears to not be a thing this game
September 7th, 2023 at 8:49 PM ^
Same old Lions
Lions
Lions are
Going to win the Super Bowl
September 7th, 2023 at 8:51 PM ^
from your lips
to God's ear....
September 7th, 2023 at 8:49 PM ^
Do the refs hate Hutch? Back to back times being held and no call. He is eating 74 alive.
September 7th, 2023 at 8:51 PM ^
Torn between wanting the Lions to do well and finally have something to cheer about and needing Mahomes to have a monster night for my fantasy team.
How about some kind of 45-42 win for the Lions where Mahomes throws five TD passes, runs for one, but gets sacked by Hutch 3-4 times.

Football Commandment #1: Thou shalt not root for thine fantasy team over thine real team.
September 7th, 2023 at 9:36 PM ^
Lions are not my team. Only reason I’d cheer for them is because of Hutch, and also because they've had literally nothing to cheer for in decades and I’d like to see their misery end. But if they don't win, its really no skin off my behind.
I’m from Tampa, so even though I haven’t been a truly devoted fan of the Bucs in a while (haven’t lived there since ‘08), if I have to have a team, they’d be it.
September 7th, 2023 at 8:54 PM ^
What does Hutchinson have to do to get a holding call? He was necktied on one play and pulled from behind on another. Since when did B1G Refs start doing NFL games?
September 7th, 2023 at 8:55 PM ^
Chiefs O line is holding almost every down.
September 7th, 2023 at 8:57 PM ^
our dear lions still need to work some stuff out on defense....
September 7th, 2023 at 8:57 PM ^
I thought the secondary was supposed to be good….
September 7th, 2023 at 8:58 PM ^
Communication among all the newbies on the back end needs some work.
September 7th, 2023 at 8:58 PM ^
There's the Lions we all know
September 7th, 2023 at 8:58 PM ^
What is even holding anymore?
September 7th, 2023 at 9:00 PM ^
F*#k NBC & Peacock-Listed Mike Dana as CMU while he said Michigan on the broadcast
September 7th, 2023 at 9:03 PM ^
Breathe...
September 7th, 2023 at 9:06 PM ^
All right Rookie!
September 7th, 2023 at 9:07 PM ^
Could we put Barry Sanders on this team with this line and this coaching please.
September 7th, 2023 at 9:08 PM ^
awful
September 7th, 2023 at 9:09 PM ^
Gibbs = Speed in Space
September 7th, 2023 at 9:09 PM ^
brian cook just recovered a fumble.
i had no idea of his other gifts.
September 7th, 2023 at 9:10 PM ^
There they are! That’s our Lions
