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!

No, they had their turn with Charles Rogers.
September 25th, 2023 at 12:26 PM ^
Oww, that cut like a knife!
September 25th, 2023 at 12:08 AM ^
Are those losers still hating on him as a lion? Aren't they too busy trying to have non consensual phone sex?
September 25th, 2023 at 6:09 AM ^
You still had Valenti and Rico this past week saying "Welllll he's a GOOD player but not GREAT".
September 25th, 2023 at 8:14 AM ^
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.
September 25th, 2023 at 8:23 AM ^
Ask a Giants fan who they would rather have right now.
September 25th, 2023 at 8:38 AM ^
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.

And this after he put up off the charts athleticism combine numbers.
September 25th, 2023 at 8:54 AM ^
Most MSU fans I know (I know many) are ok with it. Much the same way we were ok with Chris Spielman being the heart of the Lions defense in the 90s.
Most people who watch the pros don't care about where someone went to college.
September 25th, 2023 at 9:26 AM ^
I care less when it's a rival player Michigan beat. Like I'll probably always hate Kirk Cousins, even if that Netflix doc is trying to get me to like him (4-0 against us). CJ Stroud could start for the Lions and I'd have no problem rooting for him (0-2 against us).

"...future super star..."
I think you meant to say 'super star'...
September 24th, 2023 at 10:37 PM ^
Awesome play and player.
September 24th, 2023 at 10:39 PM ^
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.
September 24th, 2023 at 10:45 PM ^
Need to see more Branch but my early feelings is he may be more Ed Reed than Ronnie Lott.
September 24th, 2023 at 11:16 PM ^
I'd take either.
September 25th, 2023 at 7:43 AM ^
it's impossible to have a ronnie Lott type player in today's football. That Ed Reed comparison is actually really good and normally I'm not for comparing someone to someone as great as Ed Reed but Branch just pops during games. Similar build too.

This is the way

Hutch's bull rush is fucking filthy
September 25th, 2023 at 6:40 AM ^
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.
September 25th, 2023 at 6:41 AM ^
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.
September 25th, 2023 at 8:24 AM ^
It can't be as bad as the MGoblog Game Thread was on Saturday after the early long Rutgers TD. I'm just glad that college football isn't played with a sudden death format. "First score wins. Go!"
September 25th, 2023 at 9:45 AM ^
The game threads can be so much worse than Twitter! Every little thing has people claiming the team sucks - it's unreal how BPONE-ish people are during actual games...
September 26th, 2023 at 6:09 PM ^
Learned to avoid game threads here whilst games are close or UM is behind. It's best for my sanity.
September 25th, 2023 at 10:36 AM ^
They keep going in circles!
September 25th, 2023 at 9:11 AM ^
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.
September 25th, 2023 at 9:57 AM ^
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.
September 25th, 2023 at 1:27 PM ^
He shot out of a cannon there...he trucked the guard and used him as a slingshot.
STUD
Seahawks had to chip, double, and sometimes triple him so he wouldnt get close to Geno.
