Mike Florio thinks lions win Sunday

Florio is apparently a huge Vikings fan but he thinks the lose Sunday bc the lions “aren’t a 2-2-1 team”. It’s around the 25 minute mark of the Chris Sims podcast.

Depends how we win, now. If we win the way Green Bay won, I don’t want it!

I don’t think we have to worry about that

Agreed. We will be playing on fire, this weekend. Lots of passion and intensity. I think the refs lit a bigger fire under our ass than already existed.

Thanks for posting this.
I was concerned the Lions would come out flat on Sunday.
I now can feel that they’re going to come out on fire, ready to kick some Viking arse!

Posted bc think people in the national media are seeing what a lot of us are seeing…this team is trending in the right direction and we are really close.

We say it on here all the time, this is a must win. In reality they mostly are just big games. GB wasn’t must win, but it was big and could had been a statement game . Imo only, THIS is as close to must win as you get this time of year. To stay in the division race as well as wc. Minny will face kc without Mahomes so adding losses don’t be as easy, we NEED TO DO THAT

Good luck with that…

I remember over a decade ago when people joked that Mike Florio is running a website out of his mom’s basement. Fast forward and now the dude is on tv doing his thing. Good for him. Not a huge fan though :wink:

Dude is/was a lawyer and started Profootballtalk in 2001 as a side gig while still practicing law…and he was married…so that joke was a swing and a miss.

I’m not sure if we will win or lose. All I know is regardless of the result we will have people on here telling us we didn’t play well enough to win.

Yeah it might take some of the joy out of a win
But I’d get over it … like, immediately
And take it gracefully …

I hope :crossed_fingers:

True

Because if we win the narrative will be that we got outplayed but got lucky breaks

The Lions really are going in the right direction in so many ways
Will this be a playoff year? — maybe a playoff win?
Winning Sunday would really really go a long way to raising hope in Detroit
Losing Sunday …
Panic in Detroit!!

A loss would be brutal
Really close to must win
Home game against contending division opponent
Really really close to must win if you’re going to accomplish anything this year
