With this Lions’ defense and as long as the Niners keep their three timeouts, I’m nit yet taking this win for granted.

I like our chances. Prevent defense, keep everything in front of you.

Branch redeems himself

Backup QB....gulp

anyone who votes kevin o'connel over dan campbell for coach of the year needs their balls chopped off.

Vikings success this year has been all Darnold, not O'Connell. I don't get the hype

 

[buddha]

just go ahead and take the over in every lions game the rest of the season.

Looks like the Lions may have gotten away with a face mask on the Purdy sack

[TP_Fan]

Dobbs comes in and dominates you.  Not an ideal way to end on defense. Besides the two Kerby picks this is the worst defensive effort since two weeks ago.

More like Jake Boo-dy, am I right?

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. A real crazy idea was Gibbs going down at the goal line, 1st and goal. Milk the clock and kick a FG. 9 point lead with 1 1/2 minutes left for SF. But...no...score a TD 

Expand  

Agree, but with Bates now missing two extra points tonight I guess you better grab the 6 points when you can. 

[number20]

Can't even stop a bench QB

 

[Sports_Freak]

Again....a 6-9 opponent. 

[Motown Bombers]

Moody will figure out how to miss the onside kick.

Moody even blows the onside kick. He is broken. Poor guy. 

[TP_Fan]

That onside kick lol, moody man. 

[Sports_Freak]

Moody kicks the onside kick thru the uprights. 😅😅

[Sports_Freak]

Win or tie next week!!

Not saying this is good, just that I’ve seen this before and it’s not been the end of the world. Early 2nd.

I’m taking a bow on this one! 👍🏻

[lordstanley]

Well, a win, no injuries, hopefully a chastened Branch, and gave a Vikings a chance to be overconfident. 

[Sports_Freak]

1st win in SF since 1975. Gas was 39 cents a gallon!! 😅😅

Last 13 games the Lions have scored 40+ in 6 of them.

Also: Don’t look now, but the Lions held the 49ers to seven points for the first 29 minutes of the second half.
