When other teams do it they are really smart but when the Lions do it they are actually dumb. Thats what the fake news media says. Lafluer goes for it and misses hes brilliant. MCDC goes for it and gets it hes a dummmy. Make sense?
@@El_Guapo98 No no, it's all season long. Since Campbell became HC the 4th down trend is the highest it's ever been...and the lions aren't even the highest in league at attempts either. Please pay attention
@@robbarbulescu5078 The Detroit Lions are the only team with a winning record in the top-5 that go for it on 4th down. Teams go for it more when they're losing now, but Campbell is still pretty much the only coach who wins that goes for it often.
Really hope Lions win Sunday so Florio can stop hyping up his Vikings. Declared they would win the super bowl after beating an overrated packers team who played terribly.
The irony of the critics who lamented Detroit's trick plays is the realization that not only does defenses have to spend time studying them, but the talking heads do to, because they're real and they execute with high precision. They're not just gimmick plays!
You dont get it. Whatever Detroit does is dumb. Re introducing the hook and ladder is not a smart play when the Lions do it. When Andy Reid does it hes brilliant. Same thing with 4th downs the Lions are always wrong even when they get it. But when Lafleur goes for it and costs his team the game that was actually really smart.
Yup been telling everyone lions offense is a matchup nightmare for them. Pickup blitz’s as good as any team in the league can run the ball better than anyone and have weapons all over the field that can expose zone defense
It doesn’t matter. The next six weeks are inevitable. After years of heartbreak, would Lions fans really want it any other way? Bring the adversity. That’s what makes winning so special.
@@LaKenduhJussyPuicey or losing. Remember it has always been the Detroit way. Hate to say it but Detroit is not at their best defense wise. My prediction lose to Vikings then lose to Rams in first round . Come on guys it’s Detroit they have always been and always be a dumpster fire there just hiding it better this year.
The Vikings defense is all eye candy. Goff is too smart to be tricked at this point in his career. Add in their veteran OLine that can pick up Flores' blitzes. Its going to be another shoot out. Turnovers will decide it.
Everybody on the Lions block! there are no primadonnas on this team and they are all great! Goff should be the MVP this years, 14-2 and #1 in almost every stat!
Also so funny how people discredit the Lions for their injured Defense, and how close some of these games are, yet they glaze the Chiefs who have been narrowly escaping with wins all year.
I don't think any team is surprised that Detroit is going for it on 4th down. It's been talked about alot over the last two seasons on all media outlets, you think a DC and players aren't seeing that. They're just great at running and passing so you never know which is happening. They use the same set and look for both it's a guessing game, you bite on PA, they throw over you, you drop bc you think it's PA and are on your heels, they run a 9 yards run and pick a 3rd and long.
since 2021 detroit is 58 percent on 4th downs against the vikings. since brian flores was hired, detroit has an 80 percent success rate of 4th downs. to say that the vikings arent caught off guard and are ready to stop it is maddening.
Surprise is not an issue the way the lions go after it on 4th down - I don’t understand your argument; sounds like a suck up to Florio who is a Vikings fan.
Campbell plays to the strength of his team which is the Oline. Lions have earned the right to go on 4th . Trick plays are working because the line is giving the play time to develop . Hes not setting a trend because noone has a dominant line like the lions except for the eagles .... another team that goes on 4th alot
Flores hasn't figured it out yet. Lions have won 5 in a row against ViQueens. And when Flores ups the Pressure....... Goff doesn't just eat, he feasts. He's better against pressure. Flores's best bet is to rush 3 and drop 8 into coverage, but of course, Goff will just hand off to Gibbs, Reynolds, Jefferson, Vaki, or reverses to JaMo, St Brown, Sewell, or even Skipper...... so many weapons.
If you blitz alot, it usually means you have a defensive weakness, and your trying to cover it up by blitzing. Gibbs can make you look stupid if you blitz and he gets through the line untouched 'cause that can end in a td run for him.
Jaymo will match or exceed Jefferson, and Gibbs is better than any back the Vikings have. Gibbs may not average a lot of yards per play in this game, but I'm expecting he'll get a couple tds.
Devin, try spinning that "The Vikings are in the same division, they're going to be more prepared for the Lions...." BS to the Bears and Packers and see what they have to say about your theory.
No, that's 6 points. That's a tie at best. Then Detroit still would have had the last possession, and considering they put up 40. The defense wasn't stopping them. So that's game over.
Looks like the Talking Heads went through the garbage and pulled out their old playbook they had when Detroit played Green Bay for the second time. I said the Green Bay was going to beat them.
The new narrative is Washington Commanders they squeak a win against Da Bears nice week 14 bye beat the Saints by 1 point after there bye. Viking and Lion fans they have a new team they fell in love with.
Is it just me, or are other teams going for it on 4th down a lot more?
The Lion's and coach Campbell aren't crazy, they're trend setters.
Yes and no. End of the season, some teams are trying to get to the playoffs, others have nothing to lose so why not
When other teams do it they are really smart but when the Lions do it they are actually dumb. Thats what the fake news media says. Lafluer goes for it and misses hes brilliant. MCDC goes for it and gets it hes a dummmy. Make sense?

If I was as wrong at my job as he is, I'd have to pay back my salary!
In fairness, his team is 14-2. That's pretty special, especially how the QB has worked out for them.
Florio really hasn't hyped them all year. Surprisingly, he's been giving Kudos to the Lions on and off.
@@49rizonfacts Florio has been praising the Lions more than his Vikings
What you mean hyping them up they are 14-2 and have one of the best defenses in the league,they are very much a good team bro

3 straight games with 30 points 😂
Agree
Jared has diced up Flores multiple times
Yup been telling everyone lions offense is a matchup nightmare for them. Pickup blitz’s as good as any team in the league can run the ball better than anyone and have weapons all over the field that can expose zone defense
So many Lions Haters! GO LIONS!
Mike is just a heater of Detroit.
Heater? Maybe we can switch him to an ac unit!!! 😂
Florio is a Vikings fan (🤮) so he should be somewhat of a Lions hater.
Fanning the flames of support

Florio better put some respect on our name!
I can’t wait till we beat your Vikings next week
The big thing with a lot of the Lions trick plays is they use "false keys" to move defenders.
Somehow Detroit gets dissed. It serves as motivation.
You know what the Detroit O line is gonna say to Minnesota defense, on 3rd and 4th down? Bring it!!
The Vikings defense is all eye candy. Goff is too smart to be tricked at this point in his career. Add in their veteran OLine that can pick up Flores' blitzes. Its going to be another shoot out. Turnovers will decide it.
Unleashing Gibbs just unlocked this offense.
We love Monty but Gibbs has been even more of a beast carrying that posistion.
Gibbs is fast as lightning
They’ve been great all year…
Gibbs has been unleashed since last year dude. Getting laporta back in the mix was huge for this offense
They haven’t unleashed him yet. Just wait!!!
Everybody on the Lions block! there are no primadonnas on this team and they are all great! Goff should be the MVP this years, 14-2 and #1 in almost every stat!
This is the 2nd straight game where all 4 of the Lions main offensive weapons scored a TD. Even with the defense banged up, good luck stopping them.
and except for a scary limp by amonra, escaped serious injuries to the oline and dline this game . whew.
@vinsanity40k it's football you can get hurt in practice. Kelce got hurt in practice vs miami last year was limited so you never know
…just would like to say, Devin is awesome at this.
Completely agree. When Chris can’t make it, he should always be the option
1st team in history with 2 wrs and 2rbs with 1000+ scrimmage yards?!??! ❤❤😂
Renalds is there as well! Other guys can step up! They have more weapons than any other team! And Goff is the most accurate thrower in Football!
Also so funny how people discredit the Lions for their injured Defense, and how close some of these games are, yet they glaze the Chiefs who have been narrowly escaping with wins all year.
Detroit Lions have probably the most unselfish locker room in the NFL.
Lions would’ve won the superbowl last yr if Gibbs didn’t fumble va 49ers they are stacked on offense
Yes. They did not lose that game because of play calls. Reynolds drops and Gibbs fumble. That’s the game
Yeah don’t forget Reynolds’s drops 🤦🏼♂️
No if Josh Reynolds’s didn’t drop the wide open catch
Last year don’t matter it’s right now Go Lions all the way!!💙💪🏽💪🏽🏈👏🏽👏🏽🫡🦁
Keep grinding grandson #26! Last year don’t matter is now Go Lions!! 💙💪🏽💪🏽🫡🦁👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Hey Mike GREAT GREEN BAY front . . . That great front has lost to Minnesota twice, Detroit twice and the Eagles. Great front Mike.

Lmao 🤣 with all the missing defensive your season is over you just don’t know it yet
@ scoreboard?

Goff: 30
Gibbs: 22
Montgomery: 27
St. Brown: 25
Jamo: 23
LaPorta: 23
Sewell: 24
Just the beginning.
The Sun god is not a forgotten player. He’s the heart and soul of Detroit. Horrible comment, you don’t know Detroit.
You didn't give Patrick enough credit that man has been taking big steps with the Lions
Took Patrick had the key blocks on the hook and ladder play, and Gibbs run. Those blocks made both TDs possible.
I think the Vikings game will be a one score 3 point game ! It will be tough!
Minnesotas secondary is their weakeness, this is well known. Murphy, Gilmore, etc cant cover jamo.
We gonna expose them on defense again
Go out there and get your 33 yards, JMO!
Surprise is not an issue the way the lions go after it on 4th down - I don’t understand your argument; sounds like a suck up to Florio who is a Vikings fan.
Great point! Just like GB……
The Lion trick plays for the Vikings are designed to blow up their blitz schemes, not to look flashy.
Campbell plays to the strength of his team which is the Oline. Lions have earned the right to go on 4th . Trick plays are working because the line is giving the play time to develop . Hes not setting a trend because noone has a dominant line like the lions except for the eagles .... another team that goes on 4th alot

Vikings feel great about how many games in a row they’ve won . Lions won 11 .
Pray for Minnesota
The Lions O-line will manhandle Minnesota, just like they did in the first game. Minnesota is a paper tiger. Speed kills. The Lions taste blood.
Should be a great game on Sunday. Motor City Hitmen by 10

Hah yes NFL Minnesota Viking football talk 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Williams finally on the same page as Goff? Did you miss all the big plays he made with Goff last year, especially near the end of last season? Lol
Devin, try spinning that "The Vikings are in the same division, they're going to be more prepared for the Lions...." BS to the Bears and Packers and see what they have to say about your theory.
ESPN Analytics has Lions with a whopping 65% chance to win Sunday for what it’s worth. 🤷♂️👌😏
Vikings have the advantage of having healthy players, won't matter though
The Lions is going to beat the breaks off them
Sam D will turn the ball over 3 times.
I got it at 2
Kerby gonna bait him into a couple
All the other teams has known it as well...has it stopped Detroit...you better rethink that one bro
There is no one player on the Lions you can key on. It’s going to be Lions over the Vikings, 42-24 next Sunday.
SF needs a kicker. They would have won the game if FGs were made.
No, that's 6 points. That's a tie at best. Then Detroit still would have had the last possession, and considering they put up 40. The defense wasn't stopping them. So that's game over.
We still would have won... Did you forget Detroit had gotten blocked on the Xtra point and we missed another one.. so that negates that argument
Can’t stand the “would have” people.
They been saying the same thing all year. An for three years about how the vikings will beat the lions an they always come up short.
at what point does being a former player NOT enough to be an analyst on a sports talk show?
Pretty sure his NCAA Basketball bet was placed in a hotel room, which was discreetly considered a "team facility"... Honest mistake by JAMO
Lil bit of an advantage because they know they go for it on fourth down??? U can know about it.... but can u stop it? Is the question.
why does florio sound so sad?
All the teams know the lions are going for it on 4th down you still have to stop it.
A video of "How can we beat the Lions."
Rather be the underdog anyway..
Looks like the Talking Heads went through the garbage and pulled out their old playbook they had when Detroit played Green Bay for the second time. I said the Green Bay was going to beat them.
Florio it's clear you hate the Lions and can't stand to give them any credit. Same exact energy since PFT started. You're insufferable.
why doesn’t mike care about players being vaxxed anymore? what happened? they were killing their teammates mike! remember!?
I am sure you have a well founded reason for your weirdness, totally unrelated to the brain melting media you consume
Yep, I remember that too ..I guess he's not playing covid anymore...
Da Bucs are gonna rise up & win the NFC… hands down &
Flat out….
The new narrative is Washington Commanders they squeak a win against Da Bears nice week 14 bye beat the Saints by 1 point after there bye. Viking and Lion fans they have a new team they fell in love with.
talk hasn't nothing to do with it. Blitz us Flores!!!!!!!
What. Happen. Last. Time? 😊
Minnesota has no advantage....LMAO
Is somebody afraid about the Lions?
Whole NFL
Dirty Dan Campbell knows that if you can’t win with talent or heart…win dirty.
The Lions should just quit says tbd media. It's over, pack it up you have two losses and can't win anymore games.
