Where does Commanders over Lions rank among the biggest playoff upsets in recent history?

[reserved_one]

Not a historic upset but I was expecting Detroit to win nonetheless.

Nfc north was overrated

Packers losing to the Giants at home in 2011 was disgusting. 17-point loss

I remember the refs blatantly trying to help the Packers mount a comeback

It sucks for the real lions fans

All these new ones that showed up when they became good running they mouth like the dikkriding bandwagon fakkits they are, back under your rock you go

Again it sucks for the real lions fans who suffered for 30 years to finally get a playoff game though, ya'll had a great season

Nah cuz Jayden is the truth,im a believer now

 

[L&HH]

Because it’s the Lions I don’t think it’s going to be looked at in history too much.

 

[Stick Up Kid]

bruh its the Detroit Lions, nobody ever took them seriously.

A bunch of injury excuses in here. I didn't hear that when they beat the Vikings and shut them down.

I been saying those injuries would catch up with them

Jordan Love over the Boys last year

I winder if this has a similar effect on Detroits trajectory.

Lions been playing with a preseason defense for over a month...

Yeah they had UPS drivers and substitute PE teachers out there on defense. Nice upset but let’s not act like they was full strength

Despite the record..i thought they were bout even teams.

Same, I'm not surprised that Washington won, but I did expect the Lions to win today playing at home and rested. Dan Quinn and squad put on a clinic, but people seem to forget that the Lions have the most man games lost due to injury than any other team in the league. Not an excuse but most teams with this many injuries would have collapsed in the regular season.

Lions fans just got to accept the scars. Packers had a 15-1 team and lost to the Giants, it sucks, but we had to move on.

Now its all "It was a good season, but both teams were equal."... NAH fukk THAT. Lions with all the bravado felt the pain of what the Packers felt with a Mobile QB in their own house. You had the NFL Tag Team Championships with Sonic & Knuckles, and you still lost to the Eggman.

All you can do now is root for Washington to make the Superbowl and not shyt the bed next week, else it would look worse.

Not very high. Commanders was a terrible matchup for them and all the pressure was on Detroit. They played a team that could keep up. End of story.

You nikkas are killing me with the injury talk now. The Lions at least reaching the NFC Title game was a foregone conclusion by almost everyone. Now since they lost in the divisional round nikkas wanna change up. Especially after Washington scraped by Tampa.

We can go check the game thread, Reddit, twitter, etc etc and the Lions were picked to win by damn near everyone injuries and all. I’m not taking anything away from Washington
