Very LAME if true.

Meh, I can wait until the official schedule comes out vs a leaked one.

We should play AT Minny on Thursday night before Detroit has a shot at it.

Yes. It says right there, "at Las Vegas." What more do you want?

If it’s real don’t the Lions have lots of suspensions? Are they season long or weeks? Could be a good time to play them if the latter.

Yeah that's the only issue I see is that Jameson Williams is suspended. Otherwise I could see it, that offense is super legit. Beast of an offensive line and great skill position players. Great bet for a high scoring game.

Lions turned into a good team the second half of last season. We'll put them off to another bad start.

Because we should be worried about a fully healthy Goff led Lions team ROFL

Apparently, DET cut one of the offenders and the other two are suspended indefinitely, I guess until the NFL reviews their cases?

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but when the NFL says 'indefinitely,' that's usually a year.

Last time Detroit played at Arrowhead… Trent Green vs Joey Harrington… it’s been a minute.

Detroit makes sense. The kickoff hasn’t been a rivalry game or one with a narrative, not counting Bears-Packers for the NFL 100 season, since Giants-Cowboys in 2012.

They put a game they hope is going to be competitive, but not a game with any buzz. The first game doesn’t need any buzz; almost every Chiefs game has buzz. Bears would be a good pick, if that game isn’t in Europe.

Detroit makes no sense. Detroit would be the first non playoff team to be in the opening game, I'm pretty sure. They always put another playoff team. Detroit sucks shit.

I didn't want to play a real team week 1 anyway. Remember that time Alex Smith and company spoiled NE's banner night? That was amazing!! But now that the shoe is on the other foot... eff that. LMAO

I feel like some people have never actually watched the opening night game.

Eh. May not be justified, but there's a lot of hype about the Lions finally taking that step forward into true contender this year. Look at most power rankings and they're pretty consistently only behind the Eagles and 49ers while being interchangeable with the Cowboys and Giants.
