  1. I’d rather not start the season 0-1 (Chiefs are by far the hardest team on the schedule) but this might be good. No one has seen how either the rookies play or Ben Johnson’s new offensive schemes. The Lions will be the most unpredictable they’ll be all season.

  2. You all wanted the Lions to get more respect. We are now opening the season against the SB champs! Lets blow them out and send a message to the league!

  3. Please god all I ask is that our defense is ready week one instead of taking a 6 week bye to start the year again. That’s it.

    That being said, this is so exciting. I can’t wait; at a certain point you can’t be afraid of losing, the boys need to go out and take care of business

  4. Not exactly the team I want to play the first game of the season. Hopefully they’ll have a Super Bowl hangover and we’re ready to go

  5. Give me all the smoke this year. Huge test on the road with eyes on us. Let’s hope Goff takes Mahomes down under the big lights like he did a few years back on MNF. Stoked for this.

  6. I literally ran around my house yelling at the top of my fucking lungs at how excited I am.

    Younger fans, you got to realize also – in my lifetime at least of being a fan of 28 years I’ve never seen the Lions on opening day. It’s always a defending super bowl champs, which is never us and another high-profile up and coming team, which is never us.

    This is literally a first of many firsts for a lot of us so at the end of the day I don’t care as much if we win or lose the fact that we’re there shows we have something to prove and that should be good enough for my team to use that to put the league on fucking notice that we’re fucking coming. Let’s fucking go!!!!

  7. What sucks about playing them in the opener is mostly just knowing Jamo is suspended.

    Otherwise I’m all about that shit. Would love a bit of revenge for the 2019 game too.

  8. It’s perfect in every way. You wanna prove something? Here, go prove it against the defending SB champs – Roger Goodell

  9. I bet you anything Ford/Holmes/Campbell were banging the table for the NFL to do this.

    Let us slay the beast in their own home to start the season.

  10. Easiest time of year to beat any team period is week 1. Nobody has anybody figured out yet. I think we crush them. I can’t wait to see the odds so I can make some money on it, too.

  11. I have family in Kansas City and was hoping to catch them at Arrowhead in a way that doesn’t interfere with my Michigan football season tix so this would certainly be an answer!

  12. Chiefs are either gonna blow out the lions by 3+ scores or the games going to come down to the last possession in a shootout.

    Either way I’m here for it

  13. I’m not gonna lie. I’m nervous as hell for this game. I know for certain we’re playing all our best and experienced starters. Our backfield is going to go all out against the champs.

  14. LMFAO this is what we get for leaning into the villain label

    imagine the prestige though if we do manage to pull a win

    FUCK IT, WE BALL

  15. Week 1. Week 17. The damn Super Bowl. Doesn’t matter, Lions by 20. FTP.
