I watched the first half with a bunch of Patriots fans. They are universally rooting against KC because of the perceived threat Mahomes is to TB’s crown as the GOAT. So I got that going for me. Which is nice.
In General, if the trade produces Super Bowls for both teams then it has to be. I doubt Stafford was winning a title with the Lions and I doubt Goff was getting the Rams close again.
The Rams and Bucs have NFL QB’s. The 49ers have hid their QB with shallow 5 yard crossers all season long like they did with Jimmy G for 5 years. Huge testament to Shanahan to get these bums this far though.
For years the only time regular football fans knew the Lions existed was when they played on Thanksgiving day.
This. It's absolutely amazing that they've been able to hide just how pedestrian Purdy is. Just think how good the 49ers would be if they'd had a QB these last few years.
Or when they beat the Jets in the last game of Bill Parcells first season. which put the Jets at 9 and 7 missing the playoffs instead of going 10 and 6 and making the playoffs, after going 1 and 15 the year before. They held Barry to like 15 yards in the first half. then he exploded in the second, and they cared him off the field.
Fucking stupid decision to go on fourth. That stop changed the whole momentum. Lions are going to lose this.
