Risky Business: Rich Eisen Breaks Down the Lions’ TNF Win vs Packers & Dan Campbell’s Big Gamble

33 comments

1. I'm not a Lions fan, but I couldn't be happier for them. Especially for Jared Goff… dude was sent packing by the Rams, cause he was apparently "holding them back".

   Goes to Detroit, and everybody expects him to maybe play for a year as a stop gap until the Lions were able to draft/prepare a QB of their choosing, at which point Goff would be unceremoniously sent packing. Doomed to spend the rest of his career in a Blaine Gabbert-esk fashion until quietly retiring to minimal fanfare.

   NUH UH. Beating Goff ain't that simple!

2. THE LIONS HERE DAM IT! WHEN WILL PPL LET IT MARINATE AND STOP ACTING SURPRISE.. HATE ON THE CHEIFS OH I 4GOT DEY CAN’T DO DAT THEY’RE AMERICAS TEAM😂😂😂🦁🦁🦁🦁🔥🔥🔥🔥👍🏾🏆🏆🏆

3. How is 4/5 rolling the dice?

4. right meow

5. Lions and Chiefs get criticism for not blowing teams out. The Idea of the game is winning. Ask Tom Brady, just when you thought the Pat's lost they pulled one out of there @$$.

6. The Lions better enjoy it this season, because next year will be different. The Packers are doing this, this year, while being the youngest team in the NFL. The youngest team in the NFL. And they are giant-killers right now. It doesn't take a genius to figure out that the next 3 seasons, while the Packers' young star talent are under rookie contracts, the Packers are going to be the league's dominant team. The Lions are the team this year, but the Packers are coming. And their team is scary. The defense is even a force when healthy. Nobody wants to play the Packers in the playoffs. Detroit, at home, could barely hold them off, when Detroit are at their peak as a team and the Packers haven't even entered their prime.

7. Rich really does my head in.

8. Rich, was at the game. I thought they were trying to force a defensive penalty on that 4th down play, and when they snapped the ball I went from panic to elation. What a crazy F**** gaming

9. Never thought I'd say this but I'm super excited to see who wins coach of the year. Cuz I haven't cared about that award in 8 or 9-years cuz Andy Reid hasn't won one; heads up Reid won COY in 2002. Bruce Arians &Kevin Stefanski both have won that award twice but dealing with this season McDermott is my front-runner cuz everyone gave up on the Bills being contenders. The Bills completely remade their defense while getting rid of their #1 option on offense; great coaching Sean. Tomlin is right behind him though cuz the QB situation is wild, with 3rd being And Reid who has only got the best record in the NFL again. Kevin O'Connell is 4th but if they can win their division he'd be the winner for Coach of the Year. The Vikings next 5-games are all against NFC teams; they platy the 1st-place Falcons &Seahawks as well as the Bears. With their last two games being vs the Packers &then the Lions; mad tough schedule

10. It's called having an identity.

11. Best division in the NFL ,, and the Packers are just getting better every time we play our tuff💪 division

12. Bills v lions gonna be a nother tuff game.

13. 4:30. Rich. Reggie Bush had 1000 in 2013. Check your stats.

14. Falcons fan here and I can relate to all of their years of struggle. They finally have not only a good team but the Super Bowl favorite. I'm going to be rooting for Detroit unless it's the Falcons somehow in the playoffs 😂

15. I'm a Giants fan and I think the last time I was as emotionally invested in my own team compared with how much I am with the 2024 Lions was 2011. This team is insane, and every single person all the way to the top is preposterously likable. If the Giants and Lions are on at the same time now, the choice is (sadly) an easy one

16. This is the Lions team Barry deserved to have around him

17. Reggie Bush was the last 1,000 yard rusher for Detroit. Pretty sure he’s the only 1,000 rusher Stafford ever had which says a lot.

18. I don’t blame Campbell because Detroit is essentially playing with house money.

19. Great win for the Lions but I worry again about our secondary last year in the playoffs in the NFC championship game our secondary gave up big play once again against the Packers we gotta tighten up on giving up big plays to keep teams around etc

20. This is the team I thought they were when they had Stafford, Megatron and Suh.
    Coaching….

21. The Lions didn't trust they FG kicker last year that's the big difference this year we got A up and coming FG kicker now he's actually good

22. Had dan campbell punted from his own 30 the 4th quarter time might had been in GB possession for the the 31-31 tying FG and we would have went to overtime to possibly loose, keep in mind the defense is riddled with injuries also

23. Oh us Lions fans are literally insane. We were driven there for decades and our last synapses melted during the 0 – 16 season. Now we are reveling in our insanity. I was at the wings/shorsey cast alumni game and the crowd was chanting Jared Goff. You could probably get the chant going at the Secretary of State office lol.

24. Matt Laflute is the Head Coach of a billion dollar NFL franchise… a franchise with a very celebrated history… and he, trusted with that position, can't deescalate with a regular Joe fan that was cheering against him? What a marshmallow. Packers organization should rethink their association with this nerd. Dan Campbell would have handled this with class.
    La flute: "Omg… he was cheering for the Lions and everything😢😢😢😢"
    What an unqualified sissy.
    Lions are 5-1 versus the Packers since Brad Holmes and Dan Campbell. No crap, no gestures, all grit.

25. Lions wins 2 pts FG win vs Vikings lol 3 pts vs Texans(without both WRs) or 3 vs Bears ( who lost it for you and fire OC and HC) Lions are Frauds.BTW How much your owner paid Refs for that OPI no call on Amon Ra Loser get better defence Texans 30 Bears 27 GB 31 D=Shit pray for SB 26 and O-Line Injuries casue we gonna destroy you by 20+

26. The 4th down stuff has been down all season. It's no coincidence that we are going a lot more now that the defense is decimated and the offense is healthy

27. That play is why Sewell is the true NFL MVP!

28. 4:58 "This is happening!" Goosebumps.

29. it just makes sense 2 and short 3 and short 4 and short the advantage is the offense it will work more than it fails.

30. I might cry if the lions win the Super Bowl

31. Hearing pro sports analysts say out loud "the best Lions season in history is unfolding right now" has to be the most surreal thing you can experience as a long time Lions fan 💙

32. Regards to the fourth down try that failed. I believe that if they had not tried and punted they would not have had the last possession at 3:43 left in the fourth to win the game.

33. "Main stream media" hates, despises Midwest, middle America. Cowherd or ESPN constantly rip the Midwest. Laugh at them. Smug. Look down. Midwest people just go about their business with a smile and win.
