Transcript

00:00First game ever in the history of the national football league that will feature two teams with at least 14 wins

00:06Facing off against one another and yes, the season is longer than ever but still

00:12history at stake

00:13And so much on the line in game 272 on sunday night in detroit

00:19Between the lions and the vikings of course the winner of sunday's game

00:24Earns the nfc north divisional crown and the number one seed

00:28In the conference as you see right there

00:30The lions are a favorite to accomplish just that two and a half points spread for the game

00:37Overall, it's minus 154 on the money line

00:40If you look at where things stand though, you could also just make it the money line price to win the division at minus

00:47156 but let's go even further drs with all that is at stake on sunday night

00:53The lions are still the favorites to win the nfc at a two to one number plus 360 though for minnesota

00:59third best price with the eagles sandwiched in between the lions have the shortest number out of the nfc

01:06To win a super bowl and there is some real thought that this minnesota team is not just a feel good feel good story story

01:12Or over exceeding expectations, but a legitimate contender within the nfc and maybe overall in the nfl

01:20So the buy or sell question is not who wins on sunday

01:24But who needs it more buy or sell the lions need to win on sunday night in game 272

01:30more than the vikings do

01:33this is an absolute buy but

01:35Not for the reasons that most people would actually think like yes

01:39You need to win this game because you want to be the number one overall seed. That's not where we're going here

01:43Do you know why you need to win that because you need to back yourself up on that most horrible decision

01:49On playing your starters in a meaningless football game

01:52We're going to have this conversation just a moment about saquon barclay and the philadelphia eagles

01:56So let's go back and set the table

01:58Maybe the biggest game has been points out and rightfully so week 18 that we have ever seen

02:02Because it's not just for the division which we've seen that before

02:05It's for the number one overall seed and typically it's like okay you get the one if you win it

02:08But if not, then what do you get the two seed right?

02:10Because another team won the division they have a better record than you like no

02:13You have home field throughout and a buy or you have to go on the road all the way through

02:18So if you are the detroit lions or the minnesota vikings, it's equally important to win this game

02:22But if you are dan campbell

02:23How do you justify the decision to play all of your starters in a meaningless football game when you were already working on a short?

02:30Week compared to the minnesota vikings who had played the day before on sunday when you played on monday night

02:35Also, keep in mind the vikings were at home in week 18 you as detroit were not you were thousands of miles away in california

02:42Which means your week already got started even more late because that long flight back and everybody's exhausted

02:47Welcome into wednesday your first day of practice and getting things right because hear me out on this

02:52And i'm going to be the first in line to check this out

02:55I have the only put it this way ben the only futures I have this season that were placed

03:00We're on the detroit lions to win the super bowl

03:02Not excuse me

03:02Not the super bowl the nfc

03:04Which means they just have to get there when it gets to the super bowl they can lose and I still cash in

03:08I want them to go far outside of my fandom for the philadelphia eagles if they can't get it done

03:12It's detroit, but understand this they lose this game on in front of national television at home

03:18You know who we blame the coach because he's an idiot for playing his starters all the way down in a game

03:24That's all sam laporta absolutely get rocked over the middle, which looks like he could have a concussion

03:28You also saw halfway through the game. I'm going to ross st brown your best wide receiver

03:32Limping his way back to the huddle multiple times jameer gives your only solution that says you know what I have a dominant running game

03:39I'm going to run him 18 times have another four to five catches and leave the football game with a cut on my face

03:44Because i'm past pro blocking when I shouldn't be even doing that at this point in the game

03:49absolutely

03:501000 the lions must win this game or fire dan campbell. I'm serious
