SIAP: Aidan Hutchinson's exclamation point sack and fumble recovery

Aidan Hutchinson had an amazing sack and fumble recovery that added an exclamation point to a great Lions victory. It also gave him a chance to show off more of his moves.

It must be so difficult for Sparty Lions fans rn to reconcile Hutch being a leader and future super star on this team.  Waited so long for the franchise to show anything resembling competence, and a seemingly new era of Lions potential competitiveness (sorry for the jinx Lions fans), and its a Wolverine legend as a team leader in the locker room and on the field.  

 BUT hUTch iS a BUsT * ArmS Two SHorTt!

I still remember Valenti and Gator saying on-air that they would rather take Thibodeaux  over Hutchinson in the 2022 NFL Draft because he has a higher ceiling.  They both said Hutch would be good, but not as good as Thibodeaux.  When you take plays off you cannot be better than someone who is playing 100% every snap with extremely good talent.

That New Blue7977 is exactly what Sparty does not only in football but to everyone statewide.  Holding everyone back in the process. 

Ignore and downplay genuine talent and skill in a effort to cling onto some disturbed friends and family program.  It is the furthest thing from a meritocracy you will ever find.

Hutch is one of a very few dominant DE's yet to stuff the stat box but he is only 20 games in. Brian Branch is also one bad-ass mother fucker that reminds me of Ronnie Lott. Both of these guys may wear a gold jacket one day.

Finished my spiked Blue Kool-aid and now going to bed and sleep well knowing my football team won this weekend.

Honestly, after he started dancing after his first sack I thought he was hurt. They only showed his upper body, focusing more on Ridder on the ground, so it looked like he was writing in pain. 'OMG! What did he hurt?? What is hurting??', I thought to myself momentarily.

As someone who lives in the Atlanta area and was listening this week to the local media feeling pretty confident about this game, due to all of the Lions injuries, and just feeling extremely confident about this season in general about the Falcons re-asserting themselves as tops in the division, I'll be very curious to tune into sports radio this morning to get their gauge.

Not a Lions fan, but they've been so bad for so long that I'm happy to see them finally appearing to have turned a corner.

But...but....I was reliably informed by the cackling hens on 97.1 that all Aidan Hutchinson does is bull rush and Kayvon Thibedeaux is a superior player to him.

that atlanta offense was eaten up. Reminded me of the many hopeless offenses Michigan has played over the year. Even after the bad Goff interception it felt like the lions couldnt blow it.
