Understandable. Bills fans went through a looooong drought, but I have to say they always stuck by their team. I guess you could say the same for Lion’s fans - nice to see both back in the mix!

Really, you mean there’s actually a such thing as a Lion’s fan? IDK, sounds like a unicorn or mermaid to me, but if I ever met one, I sure would love to get an autograph…or maybe even be so lucky to get my picture taken with one! On a sidenote, I did meet a Saints fan one time! In all honesty, I don’t know if it was him for sure, because he had a bag over his head.

Boise State fan here, but just generally love college football, I usually end up spending way more time watching football on Saturdays than Sundays anymore. The NFL product just doesn’t have the excitement that college football does to me these days.
Opposite for me. I used to be a diehard college fan, would come home from elk hunting on weekends just so I could watch football all day Saturday. But the last few years they've made so many changes to the game it's just not all that enticing anymore. But neither is the NFL for the most part. I can't stand all the new tackling rules.......might as well just strap on the flags and get rid of the pads and be done with it already.

Anyone else notice how performance always seems to drop off right after players sign a huge contract with lots of guaranteed money? There's no incentive anymore. They're getting paid ridiculous money whether they perform or not. But that seems to be the trend in society as well........equity over merit and performance.

I was there with some sweet seats. Definitely more packers fans in the house than titans fans.

SA-WEET! My wife and I were at the Colts game in Green Bay the weekend before. Only issue was I heard it was the hottest game ever at Lambeau. It was a bit brutal in the North endzone. I've been going to the games there for probably 55+ years and never remembered it that hot.

That's awesome! I heard it was pretty hot. I was sitting next to a couple that has season tickets at Lambeau. They said it was almost as hot there for the Colts game as it was for the game in Nashville which is wild! It was way too hot for my liking. I much prefer the 0 degree games I've been to at Lambeau haha

Vikes took there foot off the gas almost let the pack back in. For being picked to finish last or third in the north off to a decent start. Just keep Sam playing smart and defense going could be a fun ride.

Boise State fan here too! How about Ashton Jeanty? A generational talent.

Lions fan since I worked in Dearborn for about a year in 1990-91. Tigers , Pistons, and Redwings also. Hope springs eternal - Lions were darn close to making the Superbowl last year.
