Just keep looking at what we're doing, keep watering and ask yourselves first and know 'Are you watering? And are you fertilizing every day?' So when it's time to pop, it'll pop.

2012 was absolutely not this. They were an afterthought going into the postseason and had just been totally embarrassed by the Broncos at home the month before. I think they were something like 100-1 odds going into the postseason

People kind of lump them in because the 2010 and 11 Ravens were serious contenders but that 2012 team wasn't near as good. They just got hot at the right time.

you'd think we are guaranteed a ravens/49ers super bowl rematch with the ravens winning again. but truthfully, the lions do have a chance of making it if a lot of things go their way, and losing to the ravens.

Those were both from the 4th seed. All the times we've been a high seed we end up losing in ridiculous ways like holding eventual SB MVP Peyton Manning to zero TDs but can't score, Billy Cundiff, 2019 Roman calling 60 pass plays meltdown and Derrick Henry.

A Ravens year will be when we're like the 6th seed

the 2000 ravens were the second best team in the nfl. as soon as they took out the #1 seed from their own division everyone knew they would win the super bowl. this time they're the best team and all of the 'hottest' teams on win streaks (bills, rams, packers) are all taken out. this super bowl is like super bowl 24 or 28. horrible domination. and an mvp for lamar on top

I'm just a guy and don't know anything, but it sure seems like a terrible matchup for the Chiefs scheme-wise with the Ravens O vs the Chiefs D (the Chiefs D is good, it's just the Ravens can do things the Chiefs are bad at). And that Baltimore defense is scary--until proven otherwise I do not believe the Chiefs offense can play 2 (mostly) clean games in a row.

Yeah 3 points seems low to me here.

the chiefs are the only team in the league that can put up an argument that they have the best player in a game against the ravens so idk

The Lions not winning in San Francisco since 1975 somehow strikes me as sadder than all of the other decades of futility metrics.

E: 0-13, but also, the last Lions championship in 1957 had them beating San Fran in the conference final and the team formerly known as the Browns in the championship.

Mahomes is like 9-1 against the spread as an underdog. gently caress him and the Chiefs but the spread is not too low.

feel bad for Bills fans but not bad enough to be unhappy about the Chiefs win. What a weird season, but if you got a good quarterback and a good defense you always have a chance gonna need to play perfect against Baltimore though

Yeah. We were so close to getting a Packers @ Lions NFC Championship game and I honestly think that would have been a bigger deal than a Super Bowl in Detroit. God that would have been so cool.

Lions losing to the Packers in Detroit in the NFCCG would be a level of heartbreaking the fans don't deserve.

This would have been tough to handle. Though someone picked the jets over the lions in the Super Bowl — and that would have killed me.
