I am still in disbelief. Each win is like overcoming all the old ghosts. It doesn’t feel real.

Why did Tampa go for 2? That makes zero sense. The defense really let Baker off the hook on that 4th down.
Because when you're down 14, if you get it, you can outright win on the next TD with an extra point, and if you don't get it, you still have another chance at a 2 on the second TD. Conversion rate of 55%, the math slightly favors it.

49ers open as a 7-point favorite next week. My prediction was that the line was going to be 6.

Gonna have our hands full next week.

Dude will never have to pay for a meal again in a Detroit restaurant for the rest of his life.
I agree, Lester. He definitely deserves that privilege!

Biggest play of Derrick Barnes' career by a mile, without question.

Well, even if this is it for the season, it was still a historic year. Now the Lions go on the road to handle business.

And there's still more where those came from - NBC showed a stat during post-game that the last time the Lions have won in San Fran was in 1975.

We've beaten the other two California teams this season (albeit narrowly in both instances). Let's make it a trifecta.

I...think Buffalo has just blown it here. Appropriately enough, courtesy of a ghost from their own past: Wide right.

Buffalo completely blew it with their clock management coming out of the 2 minute warning. WHY ARE THEY THROWING 2 DEEP ONES THERE? I don't get it.

Oh and here's another neat stat: Should Detroit and Kansas City win next Sunday, we'll get another first - first time the season ended the same way it began. (The NFL Kickoff Game was introduced in 2002, and since then has never featured a matchup that would go on to happen again at the subsequent Super Bowl. Of course, the vast majority of Kickoff Games have been intra-conference...)

Good, fuck Buffalo. Their fans are absolute garbage.

I am so sick of hearing about Taylor Swift. Plus, Mahomes has already won it. Fuck KC.
