I think is a great start to the season I have been a fan for 30+ yrs and this is the best I have seen the team still with a little work they will be even better the true test is going to come when they play Green Bay and if they play them like they played New England in the pre season I don’t see why we shouldn’t be talking playoff contenders. Got the Roar back for sure.

Hey Matt, you have always had the support of the entire state of Michigan behind you, now you’re making a believer out of everybody else. Stay well and do what you do best, pass the rock around and win. 16 and 0 would get you elected govenor.

What an outstanding come back win!!! I think that this win will bode well in the future because not only was it extremely demoralizing for the Vikings, but it just reinforces that the Lions are never out of any game no matter how horribly they play at the beginning. Congratulations to all of the Lyons, and coaching staff… nice halftime adjustments!
