Almost caught us napping on America’s “Game of the Week.”

Detroit trailed 14-0 to fucking Teddy Bridgewater AT HOME before storming back to finish the game with 16 unanswered points.

BIG UPS to the defense, including that blocked field goal. Also, Matt Prater drained all three of his kicks, scoring ten of our sixteen.

Matthew Stafford didn’t have the numbers, BUT FUCK THE STATS – he didn’t fuck up or cost us a single turnover. After going down 14-0, it was the defense that sparked the rally, intercepting Bridge and handing Stafford the keys inside Viking territory. He found Golden Tate (III) for the score. Another Lions interception (ten for our safeties, tops in the NFL), provided a field goal to keep us within striking distance, down 14-10 at halftime.

I’m going to fast-forward to the end of the game. THREE HUGE PLAYS:

1) The defense stops Minny on fourth down near field goal range at the end of the game

2) With one more chance, the Vikings are held again by the defense – they make it to the 49 yard line with a second to play

3) With that second left, they elected to attempt (a potential NFL record) field goal – and the mother fucker has the distance, but the crowd willed it wide left for the win!
