I’m proud of how they played despite missing our main guys on d line. Offense looked great, we gonna clean it up and learn a lot from this loss no doubt

[allgopodcast]

Lions fan here - you guys have always had our number. You played really tough. We finally got our offense rolling today. Get healthy and you guys will be just fine

[alis-ts]

DK's fumbled cost the Seahawks the game. He needs to secure the ball and stop being the Superman.

[ItspronouncedAaron]

Great game. Proud of my Hawks. They are fighting hard every game and will only get better.

I live in Kansas and I’m a big Detroit Lions fan. They played their hearts out tonight and so did Seattle but I’m glad the Detroit Lions one

[marklar]

You say Goff's name with much derision huh.

[johnthrasher]

Yes, that is the Lions team that was in the NFC Championship game last year with Jared Goff. I would think you'd tip your hat/cap to a player who performed at such a high level in this game, and has such an extensive history as an opponent over the years.

[bradpirochta]

Goff's name with derision? He's no Skylar Thompson, Bo Nix, or Jacoby Brissett... but we like him.

[MattSmith-]

I think we played great considering we don't have a right side of line and missing 6 starters by the end of the game. See you guys in the playoffs when we are full strength

[paramagic]

I turned my TV off last night sad we lost but also somewhat satisfied with what I saw. The Lions are a legit team and so are we. I hate excuses but I do feel like we’d have won if we were healthy on defense. #GoHawks!!

[VulcanLogic]

The Lions offense was so efficient that the defense ended up pretty gassed.

[Nightbringer]

Defense was close to non-existent. That and the DK fumble are the two elements that lost that game.

[shawnhenderson]

I'd love to watch these teams play fully healthy in the playoffs

[bigamigo]

This went about how I thought it would. We haven't played a good QB yet...Nix, Brissett and 2nd and 3rd string QBs in Miami didn't really test our defense. They got whooped last night. Injuries made a difference yes, but they got humbled.

[jodyclaggett]

Great game by our offense minus mistakes (DK fumble, Tyler penalty). It was always going to be a tough game to win. Injuries on the defense hurt us. Not having Williams or Murphy really impacted our ability to pressure Goff.

[spockb]

Our Defense really need to Shape Up on Tackling, Coverages from some wide open passes, and also Stop the running attacks from gaining positive yardages not only from our D-Line, but our Linebackers to close those holes. We need to Execute instead of Embarassment when we host the Giants this sunday. We gotta be competitive at every quarter and every game. As Herman Edwards stated... You Play to Win The Game!

[bosatsu]

Once again, Geno rises and does a tremendous job... 395 yards? We're lucky to have him. We'll be fine once D starters are back... Our real test will be San Fransisco... Beat them, and we're golden.

[DetroitLions]

The Lions scored 42 points on 50 plays… 😉

[brentj.peterson]

Injuries huh? Detroit is banged up too. Own it bro. Yall got shredded fair and square.

[jayraq]

Goff had no real pressure, against our 2nd string D line, except for a couple of sacks. He had all day to pass. If we had our first string D line with some rotation to stay fresh, he wouldn't have had all that time. They played a good game without much pressure. Geno played really well with a bunch of pressure.
