I’m wondering how many Lions fans were frustrated and went to bed early? Then woke up surprised and disappointed they did not stay up?
I wanna hear from those fans what their thoughts were. Or if you have some buddies who did this. I wanna hear about them.
I also want to hear from those of you who stayed up. What were your thoughts on the turn-a-round.
It was such an emotional ride. I want to hear about it.
I went to bed early but I just couldn’t stay up. I’m an old man and that kinda stuff just doesn’t work well for me if I work the next day.
I was one of em. I figured we would make it close at the end but fall short. While i definitely regret not staying up for the whole game, I saved my heart from an entire half of nailbiting football. Watched the rest this morning before work, cant say enough good things about this team…itll be the last time I turn in early!
I’m not judging.
Some had to go to work early.
Some were frustrated.
I just want to know how you felt when you went to bed and when you woke up. What did you do next?
Texans fans same question goes to you.
I opened up my phone after shutting off its alarm and went “you gotta be shitting me”
What’s funny is I turned on the radio and 97.1 and minutes after I ask this question here they ask the question on the air.
The only time i turned off a lions game past two seasons was Baltimore last year. This game was getting there pretty fast, luckily they got FGs instead of TDs
I considered it, but the comeback just felt too inevitable
My awesome new company is giving me Veterans Day off. So no.
And to everyone, happy Veterans Day.
I don’t blame anyone who did turn the game off and go to bed. It wasn’t looking good and if you didn’t have today off, then yeah…that’s late to stay up if you have to get up in the morning.
That said, I cannot remember the last time I turned a game off or stopped watching because they were playing bad. If I can take in every moment of an 0-16 season, not really sure there’s anything that could force me to do it. Especially now.
This team doesn’t give up, so how can I? I don’t leave until zeros are on the clock.
Okay, so I was late to the party So by the time I got sat down it was already 10-0. I watched most of the second quarter, but then when it was like 23-10 I just turned it off for awhile. It was weird. I wasn’t worried completely, but I just watched something else for a spell intending to comeback to it. I wasn’t sure they were going to win, but I wasn’t panicked. Or angry. This team is built different.
I flipped it back on right around the end of the third. And sure enough they buckled down and got the W. Its the kind of win that good teams get. The kind of game historically they are always on the other side of.
I hope this season lasts forever. 
Never lost faith. Believed this team would come back. Of course easy to watch whole game on west coast because not sacrificing sleep to watch.
Built different!
Not me, I always believed in this team. I’m not going to say that I thought they’d win down 23-7 at halftime but I knew that they would come out in the second half with pride and make it a game at the very least. They’ve more than earned that faith from the fans.
Watched every second and predicted the come back in the game thread. 
we may never lose again.
Guilty. Went to bed at halftime. Woke up around 12:15 pm
to check the final score, expecting to see a loss. Was really surprised that the Texans didn’t score in the 2d half.
Up til 130. Couldnt settle in, spent the day putting down beers w my buds, then Yellowstone w the game on my phone app (Fanatics sportsbook fyi, 2nd game I watced on it this week) and then just too amped to sleep.
Drag ass morning so far though
I crashed just before the two minute warning in the first half which isn’t the first time.
I knew the game thread would take a turn, it had, didn’t feel like participating.
May have had a few high gravity adult beverages, so tired.
Got up at 5am and watched the game in peace and quiet…lol
I didn’t have a good feeling, who would, but, I hadn’t given up.
Way Goff has been playing not shocked there was a bad game by him, he was due even the greats have them.
But I was not disappointed I didn’t stay up.
I watched the whole thing. Mostly because I love football and the Lions.
To be fair my thought was to watch the 3rd Q or so and see if they could make it interesting. I had assumed that Houston had just played about as well as they can (and still 3 - FG instead of TDs) and was assuming both teams would come back to their “normal”. I was banking on a loss because you have to lose some games to finish 13-4. And I think everyone would have signed up for 13-4 at the beginning of the season. But again we fans live week to week also so any loss feels like the end of the world.
Anyway, watch and assuming a loss meant that I was not stress at all. Was just enjoying the game. After Goffs 5th INT I was kind of pissed. Only in the fact that he was clearly pressing in the 2nd half instead of trusting the process and his team. I do not care what lip service he gave after the game the INT to Jamo was way out of character and the one to LaPorta was a bad pass thrown too hard or off target choose your poison.
In the 4th Goff finally stopped trying so hard and let the game come to him better. The Lions also found some magic on the sweeps and the offense finally could move the ball some.
Houston is not battle tested and lacked that certain look. The Lions are clearly almost there. Goff’s INTs in the 2nd half we way more concerning than the ones in the 1st half. Both were bad passes and the one to Jamo was a questionable decision. If he throws LaPorta’s more on the body or lower that is a TD and not an INT. So hopefully that game put that final polish on Goff so that he will now be 100% locked in.
The defense is just looking better and better. BB is an absolute game changer. TA needs to chill out and trust himself more. Let it all slowdown. The long PI was so dumb when if he had just looked back he likely gets a pick but for sure no PI. So he still has a ways to go.
Never seen a single full episode, but I’ve seen youtube clips from episodes of varying lengths. Looks like a great TV show. That Beth may be the best character since JR Ewing.
