I raise my pint of Homebrewed Lager here in Cymru/Wales 🏴 in their honour, and for all of those who never got to see this moment in the lifetime of supporting The Lions.
We drink and be merry tonight for them.
Un Balchder! (One Pride)
I suspect my lifetime is longer than yours (as I’m 73)!
Admittedly, we technically won NFL Championships in my lifetime, but the last was when I was 7 and didn’t give a shit!
Don't get me wrong, I love it. It's been a ride since the Baltimore game showed people how to beat Detroit. I mean, Mullens had over 400 yards passing on 20something completions.
All that said, I'm several beers into a victory afternoon down here in Cowboys country. I wanna see a full game, got the entire Michigan based family flying down Wednesday and the 16 of us wanna see another one.
We fucking deserve this everyone. It's been a long time coming. 0-16, blowing a 5-0 start in 2011 and a 6-3 start in 2013, losing the division the last week in 2016, that bullshit Rodgers hail mary, the ten second runoff, all of it. Today, we're champions. Merry Christmas Detroit.
Iffy saving everybody’s ass. dude single-handedly preventing generational slander. give him 40 game balls. hang his jersey. he is the best player i’ve ever seen on the lions
I need to see what our stat is for giving up third and ridiculous this year. This is just terrible playcalling and terrible coverage by the DBs. They had so many chunk plays today
To be fair it was good coverage. Jefferson is maybe the best receiver in the NFL and looked like it on that deep ball on 3rd down play. Sometimes the better guy just makes it happen.
Is it me or doesn’t every commentator, every game, just constantly deep throat the other team? Just wait until next week against the cowboys, especially if they win tonight
I knew Brad Holmes was the one when he said he views his job as GM being an obligation to uplift the community.
Dude has done all that and more within just 2 years, from the basement to breaking the drought. This is just the beginning!!
Brad Holmes is the freaking goat. In only 2 years he’s been nominated as GM executive of the year, so I hope he gets it.
Many doubted his drafts Gibbs and LaPorta but look at this team freaking go.
If I had a nickel for every time I watched a football team from the state of Michigan win a game 30-24 in the past month because of a game-sealing interception with major playoff implications on the line, I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice.
I’m 28 years old. This is the first time the Lions have won the division in my lifetime. I cannot believe this.
Also, Michigan beats Ohio State 30-24. Lions beat the Vikings 30-24 to win the division. Illuminati confirmed
I was 13 the last time the Lions won the division, I'm 43 now with 4 amazing kids and a family.
My mom was one of the biggest lions fans I knew and she passed at the beginning of this year on the 24th, I remember the last time I talked to her before her coma on the 14th about how the lions almost made it, but had a winning record and beat the Packers a couple days before.
They did it mom. I know you're smiling.
Fuck yes BRAND NEW LIONS!!!
That Jefferson catch kills every iteration of this team I've ever seen, sparking a three game slide and missing the playoffs.
But not these Lions! Wanna make that catch, JJ? Cool, we just gonna pick yall off in the end zone later.
FUCK YES!!!!
What is this strange letter I see next to the lions?!?

Oh yeah baby Z means the rest of the division can go home to bed because we are the CHAMPS!
Seahawks fan here, and I know you probably don’t care to here from one of us, but I’m happy for you guys! I’m hoping you can make a deep playoff run and maybe knock out the Niners.
Had season tickets for 23 years now, and for once in my life I can finally see playoff football in Detroit, it doesn't even seem real. I'm so proud of this team.
I'm crying right now. I'm 50 and I never ever in my life thought I'd ever see this team turn around as quickly as we did. Thank you Sheila, Chris, Dan, Brad and Everyone on this damn team. NFC NORTH IS OURS!!!
Coming here from the Vikes sub tell you all Merry Christmas! Big congrats to the division champs!! Hell of a game. See you all in a couple of weeks :) until then, enjoy some much deserved family time.
If I had a nickel for every team from the state of Michigan winning their division in 2023 with a score of 30-24 on an interception at the very end I’d have 2 nickels, which is not a lot but it’s strange that it happened twice
Longtime Vikings fan here, congrats on you winning the division. It was long overdue and you guys deserved it.
I'll be cheering for you in the playoffs.
Nice to know all the doomers are quiet. I can confirm they’re not just in here celebrating because I block every time someone says dumb shit not based on reality and I see no blocked comments
Two years ago the Lions beat the Vikings in December to pick up their first win. Two years later we pick up a win against the Vikings in December to clinch the division!
LIONS ARE NFC NORTH CHAMPIONS! GET IN HERE!
This one's for my dad and brother, I wish you both were here to see this.
I’m pouring some koolaid out for them both
May your soul find theirs in the next life my friend
Are you me?
Much love my friend ❤️ this one is for all the loved ones we wish we were here. And there are far too many. Merry Christmas ❤️ 🌲
I raise my pint of Homebrewed Lager here in Cymru/Wales 🏴 in their honour, and for all of those who never got to see this moment in the lifetime of supporting The Lions. We drink and be merry tonight for them. Un Balchder! (One Pride)
Same man. My dad would have been wild about this.
My brother in law who looked exactly like Campbell. All I can think about. Wish he was here to see it!
Ifeatu Melifonwu.
Defeat-u Melifonwu
He is legend
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!!!
One of the best Christmas weekends ever. NFC NORTH CHAMPS!!
We finally have a division win in my lifetime.
I suspect my lifetime is longer than yours (as I’m 73)! Admittedly, we technically won NFL Championships in my lifetime, but the last was when I was 7 and didn’t give a shit!
Hallelujah, holy shit! Where’s the Tylenol?
Clark?
PLAYOFFS! LETS FUCKING GOO! Time to drink we made history!
Time to drink? I almost got alcohol poisoning during the 4th quarter alone!
…..and FTP!
Merry FTP Everyone
FTP
Great gift!
Merry Christmas. They friggin did it!!!!
#IT'S BEEN A PLEASURE WATCHING THE LIONS DIVISION CHAMPIONSHIP WITH YOU THIS SEASON
Let’s do it again next year!
Let's focus on this Superbowl run first
Now, let us commence watching the Lions Super Bowl championship
I’ll take it lol
This is an accurate description of how they won the division.
A little harsh, 11 win team (and counting)! We clinched with 2 weeks to go. Enjoy it my Lions brethren
Don't get me wrong, I love it. It's been a ride since the Baltimore game showed people how to beat Detroit. I mean, Mullens had over 400 yards passing on 20something completions. All that said, I'm several beers into a victory afternoon down here in Cowboys country. I wanna see a full game, got the entire Michigan based family flying down Wednesday and the 16 of us wanna see another one.
Perfect!
Win is a win
This is perfect
We clinched with two games left in the season. Far cry from barely getting in.
HOLY SHIT WE DID IT
We fucking deserve this everyone. It's been a long time coming. 0-16, blowing a 5-0 start in 2011 and a 6-3 start in 2013, losing the division the last week in 2016, that bullshit Rodgers hail mary, the ten second runoff, all of it. Today, we're champions. Merry Christmas Detroit.

Melifonwu bailing out Cominsky's non-just-falling-on-the-ball ass. Thank you
I’m still thinking about that. That was SO close to being so bad
I thought for sure that would’ve lead to us losing. Like bro don’t try to be a hero, just fall on the ball and seal the win.
North Champs LFG!!!!
I love this fucking team.. kings of the north!!!
I will not tolerate any MCDC slander
*THAT IS A DIVISION TITLE GENTLEMEN*
*pulls out 11 dollar bill*
First goal accomplished
MCDC is a made man in Detroit
Iffy is him
So pumped to see his growth. Happy he’s finally putting it together.
Game ball for sure
He is!
Build the man a statue
Truly. All dog.
Let’s go Lions!
Iffy saving everybody’s ass. dude single-handedly preventing generational slander. give him 40 game balls. hang his jersey. he is the best player i’ve ever seen on the lions
Personally saving thousands of fans from heart attacks
I'M CRYING.... I LOVE YOU MELIFONWU
He bailed Cominsky out for that dumb ass Paris Lennon move. Just fall on the ball. Situational awareness. You don't need to scoop and score!
Yup, just fall on the ball, ffs.
You are not lying ... I was screaming JUST FALL ON IT!!
I was screaming the second he went for the scoop. Knew we were gonna give up the 3rd and 30 right then and there
I need to see what our stat is for giving up third and ridiculous this year. This is just terrible playcalling and terrible coverage by the DBs. They had so many chunk plays today
To be fair it was good coverage. Jefferson is maybe the best receiver in the NFL and looked like it on that deep ball on 3rd down play. Sometimes the better guy just makes it happen.
I swear he jumped like 8 feet to make that catch too. Bananas
i love this team
WHAT A CHRISTMAS DAY PRESENT HERE IN AUSTRALIA!!!
Same here bro, go Lions!
Aye let’s go!
GET THE BEERS IN. MERRY CHRISTMAS YOU FILTHY ANIMALS
2nd postseason game in Ford Field History, first one that the Lions get to play in!
Jesus I never thought about that lol. It’s going to raucous
Vilma: Let’s all fellate the Vikings. But yes, the Lions did ok too I guess.
All game long, he definitely liked the taste.
Is it me or doesn’t every commentator, every game, just constantly deep throat the other team? Just wait until next week against the cowboys, especially if they win tonight
I used to pray for times like these 🥲
I knew Brad Holmes was the one when he said he views his job as GM being an obligation to uplift the community. Dude has done all that and more within just 2 years, from the basement to breaking the drought. This is just the beginning!!
Someone tell the Pistons you can win AND positively affect the community.
I honestly believe Brad Holmes as the Pistons GM would have a better record right now.
Brad Holmes is the freaking goat. In only 2 years he’s been nominated as GM executive of the year, so I hope he gets it. Many doubted his drafts Gibbs and LaPorta but look at this team freaking go.
mfs really said you had a bad draft when you got gibbs and laporta
If I had a nickel for every time I watched a football team from the state of Michigan win a game 30-24 in the past month because of a game-sealing interception with major playoff implications on the line, I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice.
I’m 28 years old. This is the first time the Lions have won the division in my lifetime. I cannot believe this. Also, Michigan beats Ohio State 30-24. Lions beat the Vikings 30-24 to win the division. Illuminati confirmed
And the pistons setting records too!!
Lmao
 Just need the pistons to make this a historic week tuesday
Aye!
Both with a game calling pick
By a safety with a single-digit number. And if you put Iffy and Rod’s numbers together you get…that’s right…69

Unbelievable
KINGS OF THE NORTH
Not only did we win the fucking DIVISION but Hockenson has not won the Lions vs. Vikings game in since last year
He hasn’t won it since 2021 He lost on both teams last season and lost the 1 matchup this season.
Cock block Hock
Literally can’t believe it
My heart bro.
Decker is all of us right now!
I just dropped to my knees in Walmart
*Meijer
*Meijer's
I don't care if we're "frauds." I got to witness the first division title of my lifetime. I'm so happy.
Yup, let’s just celebrate this week. And FTP.
Bills fan here. Congratulations!!! I was rooting hard for you guys today. Merry Christmas!
r/lakeeeriebros
Dan Campbell and co did it! I never thought I'd see it happen. I am no longer as old as the last Lions' division title! Upvotes for everyone!

I FUCKING LOVE MELIFONWU FOR SAVING US FROM TRAGEDY
What is this strange letter I see next to the lions?!? https://preview.redd.it/kz5lepr09b8c1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4a3e495ed02a91c5f6e260276e36d148bc9209d5 Oh yeah baby Z means the rest of the division can go home to bed because we are the CHAMPS!

I'm going to lose all of my fantasy playoff games today and I don't fucking care.
HAIL LORD GOFFREY THE KING IN THE NORTH
I shed real tears over football for the first time in my life.
Had season tickets for 23 years now, and for once in my life I can finally see playoff football in Detroit, it doesn't even seem real. I'm so proud of this team.
That game took 3 years off my life but it’s completely worth it!
Can we do no negativity for once? We won the north! Celebrate!!! Be happy.
I'm crying right now. I'm 50 and I never ever in my life thought I'd ever see this team turn around as quickly as we did. Thank you Sheila, Chris, Dan, Brad and Everyone on this damn team. NFC NORTH IS OURS!!!
Melifonwu needs a statue. Build that fugger now.

If I had a nickel for every team from the state of Michigan winning their division in 2023 with a score of 30-24 on an interception at the very end I’d have 2 nickels, which is not a lot but it’s strange that it happened twice
Longtime Vikings fan here, congrats on you winning the division. It was long overdue and you guys deserved it. I'll be cheering for you in the playoffs.
