Happy that Jameson Williams isn't around yet

Yeah, I am interested in seeing if we are able to generate any pressure on Goff with that line of theirs.

First time poster here and a lifelong Detroit Lion fan (since '68). Have never seen the Lions on the road until this coming Sept. 7th. Was a season ticket holder from '77 to '84 and still go to two or three games a year. Us Lion fans have very thick skin and can take almost anything. Trust me, we heard it all through the decades.

Loved watching as a wee lad, those great KC/Oak games. Thats what got me hooked on the sport. Have family south of KC and have driven by Arrowhead. Looking forward to actually going to a game there, let alone a nationally televised opener. Curious to hear if the stadium is as loud as the old Silverdome during Barry's years was. Can't miss me, I'll be the old fart in Lions gear. If you're interested, please come visit our forum "Detroit Lions The Den". Hope this doesn't break a rule.

For the game, we didn't play any starters of last year's team during preseason. Having two joint sessions (NYG & Jax), the starters got their work there. Came thought relatively injury free. We have gotten deeper on all three levels of the defense, via a solid draft and key FA signings. Expect heavy DL/LB rotations, we are deep here. Fourth quarter will be interesting.

This is the first game in over two years with starting Oline (Decker, JJackson, Ragnow, BigV & Sewell). Also have a brand-new upgraded RB room, but feel we are weaker at WR than last year. Hopefully rookie TE LaPorta can fill the void. Should be a helava game! Of course, hoping for a Lion win and making it out of there alive.

GOOD LUCK!

You're snarky. Can we be friends?

That’s a normal welcome to CP. And he’s one of the nicer ones.

Please forgive us. We used to be friendlier when fans of opposing teams who have been hapless in the same way that we were pre-Mahomes would show up. But then Bengals fans came around a couple seasons ago and we welcomed them with amusement, only for that team to become the most obnoxious and arrogant and their fans to follow.

I find it hard to believe anyone could ever truly hate the Detroit Lions. So we wish you well outside of the opener.

Duncan requires all potential friends to meet him at the George Brett statue for proper vetting.

Billay may also be there

Ohio football fans are... special.

Lions fans tend to be more reasonable. Probably due largely to 60 years of humble pie. And we probably have our share of knuckleheads. Bandwagon is filling up, bound to be some bad apples.

Chiefs have always been my AFC team dating back to the Joe Montana year. Loved the 9ers as a kid and followed him over. Mahomes is my favorite non-Lion. I wish you all well in recovering from a 0-1 start. At least the ring ceremony will be fun for you 😀

Megatron96 08-30-2023 04:32 PM

Holy crap. There's two of them now.


Wait, is one of these guys really DQX posing as a Lions fan? have these guys been properly vetted?

Well shit dude, i'm sorry to hear that. That's a looooooot of miserable Sundays.

Welcome to Chiefsplanet, the most notorious and hated fan forum on Al Gore's internet.

You don't have to be faster than the Lions. They'll trip over their own asses

These aren't your dad's Lions.

In a tad over two years everything has been replaced, from owner to asst trainer. And all are on the same page. This is brand new poop in these parts.

Fully aware that no one gives a shit around that here. Just saying, don't be shocked...
