George Taylor Lions good team good story good team and they’re built the way that we want teams to be built a lot of time in sports We complain cuz people you know they just get a good player bring them in it feels cheap they pay for everybody players force their way out

Whatever whatever they were a three- win team yeah then they were a nine- win team and beat the big bad Packers with Aaron Rogers to keep them out of the playoffs even though they missed the playoffs that year now they’re 12 and five I’m just saying this is this what

Happened James just the timeline three wins nine wins 12 wins wins their division and now they are in the NFC Conference Championship Game how is that a good story that’s literally how you build a a culture that’s how you build an organization you you are bad then you

Get better and now you’re great this is a really really good team very very talented and they’re on they’re they’re where they’re supposed to be I I don’t understand how this could be a good story there are some team teams that you know you get you get a quarterback in

There okay they got a little tal they figured it out they’re here but we don’t really believe in what they were capable of doing they they’ve literally built this this isn’t an accident that they’re here so is it also a good story because it’s Detroit and it’s been a long time

And you You’ got Dan Campbell with all this character and Rah and and the the team in the city is behind them and yes it’s also a good story but they are a good team and I and I would like I’m a petition for us to just sprinkle a

Little just a tiny a little bit of respect on Jared G because we say these things real flippantly about quarterbacks like you got to get to a conference Championship game or you’re not legit you got to get to a Super Bowl or you’re not legit it’s really really

Hard to get to these things to do he’s been with both and with two different organizations and two different systems and one of these organizations had three wins and then had nine wins and then had 12 wins Brady Manning two really good quarterbacks and Jared G which

Manning gota be EXA okay all right bet he’s really good Eli gonna make it to the hall of fame also but I’m talking about pton Brady and and P Manning are the only three quarterbacks in NFL history to lead multiple teams to 14 plus wins in a single season including

The postseason golf is the other one I’m going go um really really good team but a great story right this thing about this the the the lions in general they haven’t been like a winning franchise right when they got Dan Campbell we we kept saying is he really

The guy right he gives you great speeches great Passion d a really winning they get first round draft every year but they capitalize on them right so you talk about getting jar G when he first got there it didn’t work out smoothly if you remember they had a a

Part A Part where um Dan Campbell came to him like I need more from you right I need you to give us more so we can win and what did he do he turned it on then you get some first- round J picks you traded um DeAndre Swift to Philadelphia

And then in that you get Gibbs from Alabama he’s been balling right you go to Chicago get um Montgomery right so they’ve been doing things and then to add it all up you go get Hutchinson right a pass rusher you need that and he’s from Michigan all that

That storyline they haven’t been to a playoff win in what 32 years that’s a great storyline but this team is really really good you talked about how they built this team they went from the lineman first then they built up the running game and they got some wide

Receivers he got some speed so I love everything they’re doing they have a great storyline man top five offense defense can play a little bit better I think they going and uh out to the Bay man and make it a game I’m not sure if they’ll win this game but I think it’ll

Make it a game two good teams coach well lot of attitude a lot of grit we going to see what happens really really really really good offense pretty good team really good offense I was thinking about it today without Debo Samuel the lions are the ners all pro tackle Trent

Williams All Pro tackle Su y o Beast running back Christian mcaffry 200 yards 21 touchdowns oh wait a second The Backs if you count Montgomery and Gibbs 24 touchdowns 2,300 yards All Pro wide receiver auk All Pro wide receiver I’m on Ros Brown All Pro tight end KD All

Pro tight end Le Porter same team M offensively it’s the same team only different SS have another All Pro Center but like offensively don’t get it twisted just cuz we don’t talk about the Lions the Lions and the ners offensively are incredibly comparable incredibly comparable so it’s more than just a good

Story a really good offense defense suspect I’ll be honest backend suspect linebacking Corp don’t love him Hutchinson Beast so really good offense we’ll find out just how good a team they are yeah and I think the offense definitely helps this def defense out this a really good football team right

And when I look at this football team when I look at really good football teams what’s your identity right we talked about that all year along with the Eagles what like we don’t know we know getting off the bus Niners ain’t G to bully nobody this is a very physical

Offense football team they are running the football at you with two really good backs both these backs had over 1100 yards from scrimmage two really good running backs they are a physical ball club that is their identity yes Jared is running a well order machine but their

Identity is we are going to run this football and we have ran this football every single game it does not matter the opponent so when you talk about really good football team what’s your identity they got that they gonna run the football they gonna play action pass yes

I do agree with you defense is not the Niners defense right they are going to have their hands full but when you talk about what they accomplished this year yeah it’s a great story but this is a really good football team let’s not get that Twisted Jared golf playing at a

Really high level you already talked about the all pro receiver in omr St Brown they got a All Pro tight endend but their identity is really really physical and it starts with the head coach and they get off the bus like that this is going to be a really good

Football game because they are built the same whether you like it or not they are a little better on defense well I won’t say a little better they better on defense but when you look at what they do offensively you need has team very physical run the football let’s play

Action pass this a really good football team Niners better know that I know it’s going to be a good game subscribe here to get the latest from speak and go watch a few segments from our other shows on FS1

  1. Besides talking g about their win or the game they asking are they a good story 😂 mf they tied for the 2nd best record all year 😂 who tf makes these questions

  2. Detroit is a good team for nfl! But not for NINERS they will dominate them in all phases! Easily and PURDY will still get hate it’s funny at this point! Same POEPLE said Jimmy G was a necessity for Kyle because he wins lol yet PURDY elevates team to a whole ten levels up of offensive efficiency but he’s no good! Where is Jimmy G now! CLOWNS CLOWNS 😅😅😅😂

  3. Kind of confused by the headline. Are they. Good team? They are in the NFC championship. I'm a Niner all day. Like us, they are also a good story. Purdy…last pick in the draft and is in the NFC championship.

  4. I appreciate Speak for actually talking about us. Giving us a segment instead of other shows throwing us in for 10 seconds. Get Up is STILL talking about The Bills Dallas & Philly.

  5. I’m 26 and I’ve literally never seen this in my lifetime. The lions are finally good and actually getting coverage. We’ve had winning seasons in my lifetime but never been this good and never received this much attention in the media. I’m loving every second of it.

  6. The thing with the Lions is that they’re a year ahead of schedule right now. The NFC Championship appearance wasn’t supposed to happen until next season after they had the offseason to fill more holes on their defense. The defense seems to have a formula right now, stop the run, they get key stops, force some turnovers, and use different blitzes now to get to the QB. Yes, they’ll let a teams number 1 WR go off but they’ve been good at not letting anyone else do much.

  7. 49ers should be on upset 🚨 Alert.!! Goff/st.Brown/Gibbs/ TE/Laporta will be a problem for the 49ers defense. /Hutchinson/Defense is legit. If Debo doesn’t play I don’t see the 49ers winning this game. And the lions 🦁 making it their 1st Super Bowl 🍲.!!

  8. Baker 👩‍🍳: Buccaneers were a good story.!! Lions are legit Super Bowl 🍲 contenders.!!

  9. The Lions group is getting tested and hardened in this playoff run. I still don't trust their defense to hold on long enough to win, and the offense can really struggle sometimes.

  10. Because nationally they're just not coming to terms with the thought of Detroit is a "good team" and not lucky or anything, where as Lions fan knew this team was good a year and half ago.. 😅

    It's already difficult to convince Detroiters they have a good sports team.. i mean ALL 4 teams go through a lengthy series of test by the fanbase before the team is recognized as "good" but once you are recognized.. then it's official!..
    That's how you knew the Lions were good., because you have some Lions fans that was STILL wasn't even bought into this team til late this season.. so if Detroiters are talking as much shii as they are on behalf of their Lions.. it's a VERY telling sign!. Detroiters are NOT one to overhype any of their teams.. they roast them better than some outside haters if they're not good..

    So if Lions fans feel they're going to win this Sunday vs the 49ers, than it's probably a good indicator that they probably will.. it's truly just that simple.. that fanbase KNOWS their team and knowledgeable about other teams..they know how good the 49ers are but the STILL believe they'll win this game!…
    That's truly says something!… don't be ignorant, watch for the clues of Lions fans..

  11. Tired of hearing all this hating regarding Brock Purdy. U people are haters. What more do u want he wins games, most of u won't think twice if given the chance to have Purdy qb for ur teams..

  12. Good team that had a cupcake schedule. …Panthers, Bears, Bucs, the list goes on, Minn without starting QB twice, yeah ok

  13. 60years old lion fan forever. My opinion, we could have/should have won two- maybe three more games this year. Great team. But still vulnerable. We have same old lions frame of mind that is hard to kick. Can they beat the niners? Absolutely. Will they. 🤷‍♂️but you can’t take away that they earned every right to be where they are. If they get to the super bowl it will be a huge hurdle to beat Baltimore(assuming they win). If we can control the back field better, it is possible. Could possibly be our one chance this year. Another year could be a totally different story with coaches moving to head coach other teams and maybe injuries etc. gotta have this year or bust mentality. Go lions!!

  14. I see you at the super bowl I promise you that!!!GO LiONS!!!!!!! the roarrrrr has been restored😅 🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈

  15. “How is it a good story?? They’re exactly where they’re supposed to be so no it’s not a good story it’s a good team”
    Literally in the same rant:
    It’s a great story, look at the history it’s Detroit it’s a great story.

    ???

  16. How many forget Purdy has been in NFL 2 Yrs and remaining QB in playoffs 5 Yrs or more, give the humble man his props

  17. Story. They’ve overachieved at every stop. They got massive breaks not having to face Dallas again and drawing a 2nd place schedule. They are a bunch of no names and a few decent chips, but their run is coming to an end here.

    It’s not hard to see.

  18. Dumb title to video. Of course detroit is a good team there playing in the nfc championship 😂
