OT: Lions-Saints Playoff Game Open Thread
OK, this other games sucks, so get all your positive Lion talk in now, since not being able to hold a 2nd string QB to under 40 has probably killed any chance of seeing the Lions win their second playoff game in most of our lifetimes. At least I'm not still in New Orleans for it.

That was a subconscious jab at the Broncos.
"They didn't beat a playoff team all year. What's that, Denver fans? They beat the Broncos? Well, in that case... Nah, I stand by my comment"
January 7th, 2012 at 9:54 PM ^
The ESPN radio commentators are busy sucking Brees' dick while trying to dong-punch the Lions. I swear, what happened to just calling the game. I swear the guy on the radio jizzed himself when NO scored.
January 7th, 2012 at 9:39 PM ^
Officials fucking us over as usual. It wasn't just the whistle. They missed two holding calls and a chop-block on New Orleans on that last drive that they would NEVER let us get away with.
We will lose if we don't force them to punt at least once or twice in the second half.
January 7th, 2012 at 9:43 PM ^
They basically sound like pinochle but with a ball.
January 7th, 2012 at 9:43 PM ^
No one gives a crap what you think.
January 7th, 2012 at 9:47 PM ^
Leggeaux second half! Get Stafford the ball, he's straight swagwaggin this offense up and down the field
January 7th, 2012 at 9:49 PM ^
phew
January 7th, 2012 at 9:49 PM ^
And that weight loss center commercial is really fucking disturbing.
January 7th, 2012 at 9:49 PM ^
Can't win if you don't tackle
January 7th, 2012 at 9:49 PM ^
Tackle for god sakes
January 7th, 2012 at 9:50 PM ^
lions D-line is getting held like crazy
January 7th, 2012 at 9:51 PM ^
Holy hell this tackling is atrocious. We need Mattison to instill a swarming mentality. I've seen so many times where a Saints player is floundering with a guy hanging onto his foot and waving the ball around while the rest of our D just watches. Go take the ball!!
January 7th, 2012 at 9:51 PM ^
I remember when we were leading this game, and then we let Brees throw to wide open receivers.
January 7th, 2012 at 9:52 PM ^
On offense this year, and don't take all defensive players, someone should be shot.
January 7th, 2012 at 9:54 PM ^
....say, Matt Millen, retroactively?
January 7th, 2012 at 9:53 PM ^
drafting someone who knows how to stop the run/tackle would be nice
January 7th, 2012 at 9:55 PM ^
We get called for a holding and no facemask?
January 7th, 2012 at 9:56 PM ^
kidding. Did they touch the receiver helmet or not?
January 7th, 2012 at 9:58 PM ^
it is completely legal to try and rip someone's neck off, but completely illegal to brush your hand slightly over the logo of the opposing player.
January 7th, 2012 at 9:58 PM ^
bull shit calls.....
January 7th, 2012 at 10:00 PM ^
I hate the Saints and how everyone that calls their games are constantly sucking Brees' dick. He's good, but he plays in an offense that calls on him to pass SO many times. Oh, and very surprised we finally got a call on the punt return.
January 7th, 2012 at 10:00 PM ^
too bad they arn't calling the holding calls on the saints o-line :(
January 7th, 2012 at 10:00 PM ^
pierre thomas breaks another 4 tackles...
January 7th, 2012 at 10:01 PM ^
TACKLE!!!
January 7th, 2012 at 10:01 PM ^
Cant the backers learn to wrap with their arms!
January 7th, 2012 at 10:01 PM ^
Nice sack! Beat him up!
January 7th, 2012 at 10:01 PM ^
Where's the fucking hold?!
January 7th, 2012 at 10:02 PM ^
spot. C'mon REFS!
January 7th, 2012 at 10:02 PM ^
Wow they gave him a great spot there.
January 7th, 2012 at 10:02 PM ^
ridiculous spot on that catch
January 7th, 2012 at 10:02 PM ^
Should have been a hold in the end zone, too!
January 7th, 2012 at 10:02 PM ^
A 1st down. BS spot.
January 7th, 2012 at 10:02 PM ^
of officials .....
January 7th, 2012 at 10:04 PM ^
No kidding. No one in the league wants the Lions to win.
January 7th, 2012 at 10:03 PM ^
... when the commentators are saying the officiating has been crap.
January 7th, 2012 at 10:03 PM ^
arm tackles ftw!
January 7th, 2012 at 10:03 PM ^
Colston was obviously at least a half-yard short of the first down there. But the refs totally blew it.
January 7th, 2012 at 10:03 PM ^
if Gunther spends the entire offseason saying "wrap-up" over and over again.
January 7th, 2012 at 10:05 PM ^
holding on the last play too. tremendous officiating
January 7th, 2012 at 10:05 PM ^
All the things.
January 7th, 2012 at 10:05 PM ^
what a terrible spot again!!!
January 7th, 2012 at 10:05 PM ^
Make-up spot?
January 7th, 2012 at 10:06 PM ^
Sack the bastard!
January 7th, 2012 at 10:07 PM ^
Does he get forward progress if he pulls it back himself???
January 7th, 2012 at 10:07 PM ^
a fumble
January 7th, 2012 at 10:07 PM ^
tackle please.
January 7th, 2012 at 10:07 PM ^
Shouldn't take three attempts to tackle every time...
January 7th, 2012 at 10:07 PM ^
Tackling?? Refs and tackling (and intercepting) suck!!
