OT: MIchigan Sports Thread: UM wins Natty Championship

[RabidBadger]

Pistons been heatin' up. Lots of good juju amongst Day-twah sports teams lately.

Speaking this into existence - All four Detroit teams in the playoffs for 2025 - Let's goooo!

 

[Konnan511]

The Tigers have signed a ton of young international players. Are any of them good?

 

[raymond23]

Awful fumble when you had all the momentum

This is nerve racking

 

[raymond23]

Oh no not like this

 

[Filppula]

Goff

 

[MabusIncarnate]

Not a great night to be a Detroit fan, Lions need to rally back in the 2nd half. They got it in them.

 

[raymond23]

12 men on the field on the biggest play of the year

Heartbreak

 

[JediOrderPizza]

That's a mighty big choke.

 

[ChaosLord]

What a disaster. Silver lining is that its better to lose here than in the SB.
Also Washington will get creamed by the Eagles next week.

Wtf...

That sounds like some Leafs stuff lol.

It's true though. Would you rather have the Lions legacy or the legacy of the Bills or Vikings?
Those two are the laughing stock of the league.

Not big on football but I mean being the number 1 seed and losing kinda makes you a laughing stock.

Put it to you this way. It would be like expecting the Wings to the win the Stanley Cup in '97 if they lost Yzerman, Lidstrom and Kozlov prior to the playoffs.

 

[Reality Check]

Disappointing end to the year but life goes on. It's hard for me to feel shitty with how much they overcame this year.

You also can't turn the ball over that much and expect to win. Not with the issues we have.

 

[JediOrderPizza]

I know the defense was beat up but figured the offense was fine? Not really a great game for them.

Maybe we can stop hearing the Goff chants now.

 

[jkutswings]

What a waste of a monumental opportunity. Even with a healthy defense next year, they likely lose one or even both of their coordinators, and who knows how the deck gets reshuffled with the 31 other teams.

Had both teams played their best game, it would've been a lot easier to live with a loss. But both sides of the ball screwed the pooch.

 

[Ed Ned and Leddy]

Ah dude this just f***ing sucks so hard.

I'll take health over anything.

Ask any former NFL player and they'll tell you the biggest advantage going into the playoffs is health.

Detroit did not have it whatsoever this year. To the point fans were huffing hopium about Hutchinson returning not too long after snapping his damn leg.

 

[ChaosLord]

Everyone is piling on Goff, but the fact is the Lion's receiving corps really isn't that great. Outside of St Brown and LaPorta their receivers are average at best. A position that needs to be addressed in the off-season.

I would rather have made the Super Bowl. Get the hell out of here
