This looks like a replay of Eagles first game against Detroit last year. Team who got the ball last, won.

The Chiefs simply played poorly. Dropped balls, stupid and costly penalties..... Congratulations Lions!

Picked the Chiefs but was secretly rooting for Detroit.

Go Lions!

Joe Burrow reached an agreement on a five-year, $275 million extension that includes $219.01 million guaranteed, making him the highest-paid player in NFL history, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter on Thursday.

The contract averages $55 million per year. The deal ends months of negotiations and rewards a player who has flipped Cincinnati’s fortunes.

Last year the Lions got down big early and had to come back.

Our defense is so much better this year.

And Chris Jones, Tyreek Hill, and Orlando Brown. You’re right though, they looked totally beatable without Kelce. I hate that loud mouth anyways.

No exaggeration to say, this is the Lions biggest win since 1991.

Wow. Thirty-two years?! And it’s only a regular season game.

True. But with all the off-season talk about how good the Lions were going to be, it was crucial to validate that with this game. It sets the tone for the rest of the season.

I agree. It’s not everything, but it is significant.

Wouldn’t want to be in the receiving Corp of KC this week. Cost them the game. Glad for Detroit though. My favorite Thanksgiving team, and the coolest uniforms and helmet. That’s one of my underdog wins, now for Steelers and Jets.
