I don’t think people realize the sheer amount of incompetence the lions had from 98-2010 and the how cursed the 2010s felt. Like this team was either a joke or historically unlucky for so long. So just to see them playing disciplined smart football consistently is incredible let alone making it this far. Something ive never seen before.
Not to mention the many many botched nfl ref calls and rule changes that were involved with us. It felt like hell. I’m so grateful rn to be a lions fan 26 years since birth
You mean the 79’s till now
I loved Dan Campbell initial press conference and meeting with the plant workers and meeting with the fans. He was talking directly to Detroit and no one else.
He was talking grit even back then.
This Sunday everyone’s a Lions fan
Lions please save us from Purdy in the super bowl
No. Faithful will show up and be spectacular. Go NINERS❤️🔥
Everyone except the 49ers faithful lol. With that being said,, Go Lions!!!
😂lmao
Let's go Lions from a Green Bay Packers fan.
I’m not quite sure what Jason is talking about, sorry. As a Lions season ticket holder, every fan I know loved Dan’s first press conference. It gave us ‘96-‘97 Red Wings vibes and we were in!
I’m pretty sure it was people from outside of Michigan that didn’t get our vibe that laughed.
Just for random context… the year the “Dead Wings” went ruthless & finally made the Finals: the Detroit News literally published a wanted poster of Lemieux on its front page, our coach got into screaming fights with multiple opposing coaches, the Avs had to be escorted to Joe Louis by police, multiple goalies got into straight up bloody fist fights, and more. So, kneecap biting talk might be tame in comparison 😂
Everyone I know was so pumped for MCDC after that first conference. I'm so happy he is representing Detroit
I think he was talking about non-Lions fans. Probably moreso pundits, but he wasn’t talking about lions fans.
Lions have been national mockery since I can remember. Love proving the haters wrong this year and Dan Campbell‘s quote about ‘stay off our train’ was complete bad assery
Talking heads dude
I was born in Detroit in 1991, I have never seen my Lions do this good my whole life. This teams culture embodies the city of Detroit! I’ve been in auto manufacturing my whole life. Blue collar and gritty is what this city is about! Headed to the watch party at ford field It’s gonna be lit! Go Lions!
They've made it this far once in 91, and the previous was 1957!
I went to the Rose Bowl for Michigan and the Lions Rams game. I’ll be going to the Lions Niners game also. What a year for football. Go Lions!
As a Lions fan I can honestly say - and it took, almost, to age 72 to say this - if we lose this game there REALLY is next year. This team is built Ford - and mostly Campbell - tough. This team represents an entirely new, winning culture in Detroit. That culture will be there next year. This is the beginning of a new era for Lions football - finally. Go Lions.
The amount of Honolulu blue in the 49ers stadium this Sunday is not going to be a little. You will hear the support this team has on the broadcast and the Niners will definitely hear them in that stadium.
It won't matter. 49ers are louder you have no idea about the environment
Dan Campbell Coach of the Year!
Campbell on a Wheaties box
@@eddiehoppe give me 10 of those boxes lol
I'm not sure the Wheaties Box can hold all that greatness, but it's worth a shot@@eddiehoppe
Everyone I knew in Michigan was pumped with his energy after that interview 😎
I appreciate Kyle's sentiment so much. It's been driving me crazy this week to see the Lions called the Cinderella story. They are not a Cinderella story. This is a team packed with talent who finished 12-5, won their division with two weeks to go after being favored to start the season, top 5 offense in the NFL, won two playoff games to now be at 14 wins which is the most in franchise history. They are 22-7 across the past 29 games, this is not a flash in the pan. This is who they are now based on the way they have built this team. The Lions are good now, and this is the beginning of it.
The D occasionally looks like Cinderella, but otherwise I agree with everything you said. Go Lions!
Very well said
LA Porta, Hutchinson, Gibbs, St. Brown and Sewell will keep this team good for a while.
I’ve managed my expectations all season because we are the Lions, and I had considered 1 playoff win to be a huge success for this new team
But now we’ve made history with 2 playoff wins and there’s nothing more to expect other than Super Bowl. Teams don’t get this far on a fluke, any of these 4 teams could win. No more looking at the past, this is the future. Brand New Lions.
It's a critical moment for me as a fan.
Do I fall back on my training and suppress my expectations? Or do I open my heart for the first time in years and take the risk of getting hurt again? Am I ready to believe, REALLY believe?
Decision time this week. Can't wait for Sunday.
@@sethkrueger9294 I feel like i’ve done that 5 or 6 times this season. They’ve proven us wrong by now brother, just soak it in.
This 49ers team will be our biggest test all season. I know we can win this game but it's going to be a fight.
Man as a bears fan I’m rooting for y’all for real y’all deserve this I wasn’t alive for the 85 season but at least I can enjoy the fact they got a ring. Hopefully y’all win it man seriously
We aren’t satisfied! We want the whole thing. One Pride 🦁
Us 9ers ain't givin' it to ya! Our 6th is what we are about Niner Empire.
@@Zerogravity598 Uh hahaha, ok buddy, you can try, just no injuries. We won't be denied our sixth Lombardi.
@@IamGreatsword Lions 38 - SF 20
@@IamGreatswordSee you Sunday
@@Detroitgondoit Yeah Yeah Yeah but clownin on pred score reverse that more realistic lol
It's crazy to me that just about one month ago I was ecstatic just to win the division again after so long. Like that was the huge accomplishment. But then to play solid at home and beat two hot teams (despite their abysmal records) and now in the NFC Championship with a *chance* at the Superbowl??? INCREDIBLE! Let's go Lions!!! #OnePride #MCDC #GRIT 🏈🦁
Honestly as a Braves and UGA fan, I hope the Lions go all the way so Michigan can have a whopper of a year on a collegiate and professional level.
As a Lion fan, I loved his introduction!!! Had me pumped 🦁💙 MCDC Coach of the Year
I was living in DC and my boss gave me tickets to that Lions-Redskins tilt. Sat basically in the very last row of RFK, but near midfield. When Green took that pick to the house the stadium was *swaying* from the crowd. Insane spectacle.
I love watching the nation embrace the lions, as a Michigan native they’ve been my team since I could cognitively process such a thing. Not only is it a great feeling to be so proud of MY team, but I love watching the nation embrace them. They are great men, they bled for this. They deserve every bit of this success. Especially Jared Goff. The noise he blocked out was louder than ford field last weekend. And it lasted a year and a half. Go Lions, why not us!?
The last time the Detroit lions were in the NFC championship game. I was a year and a half old lol I am rooting for Detroit however, I think San Francisco will win but they struggled more than I thought they would last week against Green Bay so who knows anything can happen in a one game situation.
I was born 13 years after they made it lol
I was a baby when they sucked
I was born in 1957 in Detroit. GO LIONS
The packers are shittier than a Taco Bell toilet seat and the niners struggled to beat them at home. The lions are winning the Super Bowl and will sacrifice the niners. Purdy 2 interceptions. JG 400 yards
@@Whoisssq lol
I'm enjoying this for my father, who took me to see Greg Landry play at Tiger Stadium.
The 1991 NFC Championship game is also the last appearance by the Washington Redskins to date. The current longest drought by an NFC team.
The cowboys and redskins are the only NFC teams not to play in the championship game this century
Gonna be watching videos like this all week to hype me up! Go Lions!
Everyone in the media laughed after Dan Campbell’s first press conference. Ain’t no one laughing now are they? Everything he said at that press conference he delivered. Everything. Dan Campbell is a legend .
This Sunday means only 1 thing for Lions players and Lions fans: Redemption 🏈🦁
The Detroit Lions were the ones to try and beat for a championship in the 1950's I think it's going to be that way in the 2020's
As a bengals fan, I hope they not only win, but beat either mahomes or Lamar Jackson in the bowl. Who dey supports Detroit!
Let's face the truth. Despite their finish last season, most people still didn't believe in this team, particularly outside Detroit. People still considered Dan Campbell a buffoon. People said the Lions botched the NFL draft in 2023, and that their rookie class was not going to contribute. People said Jared Goff was still a place holder QB and couldn't get the Lions into the playoffs. And now, the Lions and their fans have one thing to say......."HOW DO YOU LIKE ME NOW?"
Fans were not going in against Dan. That's a massive misunderstanding. ALL of the media was going off against him, but the fans were absolutely STOKED.
I've been a Lions fan since 1979 and I expect a Superbowl Championship! I think we all want that ring!
Lions are going to the bowl 💙🏈🦁🏆LIONNATION
detroit vs everybody
one pride
grit
As a Lions fan I don’t recall the fans clowning Dan after the press conference! I just re-read the comments on the UA-cam video - every single one is pumped and positive! It was the idiotic sports media trying to convince us he’s a failure before he started. Most of the real fans were onboard from day 1!! Coach Campbell is a legend
Any other life-long Lions fans out there that don’t even know how to handle this? I Jump from sheer Joy, to disbelief, to such pride and gratitude towards Sheila, Dan, and Brad, to extreme anxiety that it might be …..? I love this so much!!!!!
Can't help but being excited for Lions fans... I'll see myself out now.
Jared Goff and Brock Purdy can have their defining moment depending on how this game goes. It will solidify their narrative amongst the media and most fans.
I predicted when Dan Campbell was hired and I saw a couple of his interviews and got a sense of his leadership and motivation skills that he was going to get the Lions to seriously contend but he did it one year faster than I guessed. I hadn't really been a Lions fan from the time Barry Sanders retired until Campbell was hired but I'm so happy for all those who have felt the painful losses as hard as I have taken Michigan losses over the years.
SF may win, but they won’t leave with both kneecaps.
Oh their going to win? Wow 😂
Strange that they didn't show their own reactions to the Dan Campbell hiring
I can tell you one thing, there’s going to be a lot of Honolulu Blue in those stand come Sunday.
NOT exactly sure WHY folks DIDN'T get what #DanCampbell was getting at with THAT particular part of his 1st presser. LONG-TIME, LONG-SUFFERING #Lions fans immediately GOT IT...and KNEW that this was The GUY for the Gig. He perfectly DESCRIBE WHAT a REAL lion DOES in a FIGHT!
Inject Schraeger and Brandt into my VEINS! I'm hyped up for whatever happens next but somehow hearing them both get quiet and lower their voices here... I can't hardly breathe waiting for this game
This video was definitely not about Washington, but seeing footage of the '91 NFC Championship game brought back so many memories. Now all Redskins fans have now is misery!
Man why you gotta do us like that!? (With the '91 footage) I was 12 years old and it broke my heart! I've been a Lions fan ever since. I did quit after the 0-16 season but came back when Staff and Megatron started cookin' FEELS SO GOOD TO BE HERE AGAIN!! LETS GOOO!!!! #OnePride
Detroit verses everybody. Jahmyr the greyhound Gibbs is amazing
Detroit Lions 🦁 & Jared Goff 🏈 FTW 🙌 #AllGrit
Brock Purdy is the true underdog. Rooting against him makes you unamerican. Don't disgrace the country. Root for Brock Purdy
That's gonna be an interesting game 49 ers and Detroit Lions that's going tough. ☝️🤘🤟 love cam Newton, Brandon Marshall
Detroit built Vegas so yes I’d say it’s long over due that we win a Superbowl there.
I'm pulling for Detroit as a chiefs fan whose extended family lives in Michigan. Dream scenario if they both win.
As a Cowboys fan, i want to run back the tape of the 2015 Wild Card game! I was at that game, and it was awesome 🤣.
In all seriousness, i hope the Lions go all the way
Those 1991 highlights was sick
Hope DET Wins Superbowl!!!!!!
Josh gets it.. People want to go because for the past 6 months, whether we realized it or not, SE Michigan has been at the center of the football world, both pro and college level. This an area that has been joked about, walked over, come up just short and now people want something to believe in. By God, we've found it in the Wolverines and Dan Campbell's team and we're riding this wave to the end.
What does it mean? EVERYTHING
Dan Campbell's first press conference was for the fans! To get us pumped!
Half way through last season, most of the talking heads were declaring Campbell a failure. But as a Lions fan, you had to be a connoisseur of losses. And if you were watching that 1-6 Lions team, you could see the winning team hidden in those losses. They were barely losing to great teams playing at a high level by 4 points or less. I have really loved this playoff run!
That's a hype if ever heard it!!!😮😮😅😅
Just a quick reminder that the Detroit Lions haven't trailed in a game since the ref took the points off the board in Dallas. :)
The fans ever had a problem with Dan Campbell 😭 😂
Rfk I was a baby in 91 I remember when they were a laph
Lets Go Lions!
What's so promising to me as a long-suffering Lions fan is how sustainable this feels. They've done it 100% organically, and yes it's going to get tough in a few years when all these young studs have to get paid, but as long as this head coach and this ownership team are in place the Lions have a true contender.
I AM GOING TO VEGAS
The NFL community at large has a general idea of what this means in the context of the Lions specifically, but those who may be less familiar with other sports may not realize how badly needed this is for Detroit sports fans in general.
For much of my life, as long as I wasn't picky about WHICH Detroit team I was rooting for, SOMEBODY local gave me something to get excited about, from roughly '83-'13. But collectively, the past decade is arguably the worst in Detroit sports history.
Droughts the Lions' current season have snapped, across all Detroit sports:
Last Playoff Appearance: 2019 Pistons
Last Division Title: 2014 Tigers
Last Playoff Round Win/Conference Finals Appearance: 2013 Tigers
Here's hoping these next couple end as well!
Last Finals Appearance: 2012 Tigers
Last Championship: 2008 Red Wings
You here that press conference Kirby, We going after them knees my boi..
yes
JG:135/3+50MSB Bonus!
I almost cried when they won their first play off game and I would laugh at people who cried over sports. I just sat there in disbelief for like 20 minutes. Because it was something I’ve never been used to, I’ve watched them fail for twelve years ( young fan). This means everything to us.
I dont think the average fan really understands how good of a positiion this franchise is in. This is an incomplete roster thats still very young. Thats why im not trippin about this game. Lions are way ahead of schedule.
They're really good, but getting to the Super Bowl is super hard to do. As a Bengals fan, I hope the Lions make it, it was kind of surreal as a fans seeing the Bengals make it, and I think it would be similar for Detroit and their fans. Once your team makes it you realize how hard it is to get there, all the obstacles, the close wins. I think they can beat San Fran but it's going to take a great effort by Detroit. I'd give Gibbs the ball a lot!
As a Lions fan(born in 98) this is best Lions team I’ve ever seen.
Im a chiefs fan at 2pm. And a lions fan at 530. I just wanna see them do well for once!
A win means more than we yet can understand.
Praying for a Lions Win ❤
That Washington team was great.
MCDC Brad 10 MORE!🦁
Motor City is gonna smash Silicone Valley! GO LIONS!!!!
Let's goooo lioooons
Kyle is a real one.
Forget Auto Industry vs Tech. Lets go Eminem vs Swift. Lions vs Chiefs in the SB!
Treat every Lions playoff game like it’s the last one until proven wrong.
The way the Lions have been drafting I say count on them to make the playoffs next 4-5 years at least.
Dan Campbell started off 4-20 so you knew his career would be fire 🔥!
It funny how every Media outlet talking about debo injuries but didn’t bring up the facts that lion are gonna be missing two of there starting offensive lineman and going up against the 49ers defensive line😂😂😂. Plus they signed a TE that hasn’t played in 5 weeks.
Redemption for Ernest Byner. GO LIONS!!!!!!
Come on y’all, you know how us Lions faithful travel heavy. Go Leo’s!
Man I hope Detroit pulls this off come on! I just think the niners are too much
We already know because of the Superbowl Logo scheme the Superbowl teams are going to be the Ravens and 49ers... With most of the logo being purple it's most likely Ravens winning it all
For real tho as much as a lot of people want the Niners to win , a lot of people want the Detroit Lions to win this champ game
Lions..let's get it done!!
we are building a dynasty and ain't nothing gonna stop us go lions
hey! we have the GIbbs this time!! go lions!
Ravens fan here detroit listen to me you must run the ball actively that allow the play action pass forcing purdy and CMC to stay on the sideline and when they are on the field you MUST pressure him everytime purdy steps back that has hutchinson DE for the lions is game wrecker and last RUN THE BALL! If the packers can run all over them you must do the same go out there be great. GO LIONS!
3 GREATEST 🍺 EVER 🦁
I’m a raiders fan and I’m rooting for lions and ravens. I’ve asked a bunch of people and a lot of them are rooting against niners and chiefs.
The more and more i see this press conferences and predicters and critics the more and more i feel the Lions are going to win.Detroit is very good team and can beat you in different ways.They are just like the Ravens they can beat you n different ways too.Ever since the Lions beat the champion Chiefs i knew the Lions are going to win the NFC.I am telling you all this team reminds me of the 1992 Dallas Cowboys when they rebuit the perfect team off of young talent and good draft picks.Go Lions!!
Tecmo Super Bowl
KYLE IS THE MAN!
The lions QB is old and due for regression and the core players are young and due for regression. Lions fans go to the game because this is it for them
Barry couldn't make any cuts on that muddy field.
Let’s go Detroit @ Lions 🦁
49ers quarterback is getting hate after a clutch win for some odd reason. And America wants the Lions to win. The 49ers are coming in hot I’d imagine. Ready for one of their normal games.
