Detroit Lions Are 60 Minutes From The Super Bowl | The Valenti Show with Rico

[@tyler3876]

I was at LCA before the Wings game. Literally, 5,000 people were watching inside, with a drumline cheering for this team. This town deserves this.

[@jonjhon8491]

They have the game on the big screen?

[@spartaninvirginia]

Anyone who said it would be a blowout was delusional. Winning by 8, winning by 1, irrelevant. Wins a win.

[@jasonp3717]

Those are the only people Mike likes to attack. Not people with brains just the blowhards he knows he can be smarter than

[@SelfHatingLionsFan]

Straight truth. Thank you. I've been incredulous with some of our fans. This is the fucking National Football League. It's the playoffs. Seems as though so many don't understand just how unbelievably difficult it is to win in this league. Especially in the playoffs. For the love of God, don't listen to me.....listen to MCDC post-game speech in the locker room. I'm just some random asshole in a youtube comment section. He's the guy who has (along with more than a few others) completely changed the very fabic of the last 40 years of this organization. Edit: It's the same ones who were trashing Goff and Aaron Glenn & others all year. I mean....what? This team loses a few games to divisional rivals, where all bets are already off, and these teams were playing some damn good ball at those times. This team hasn't had anything worse than the 2nd best record in the NFL ALL SEASON. That's a fact. Check it. This team hasn't lost back to back games in a year and a half. What fd up reality are these fans living in? Jared Goff has been a top 5 qb for that year and a half. A straight up guarantee to make a play when it's needed....virtually every single time. Aaron Glenn is a lock to become a head coach in the near future. Stfu, & enjoy this unprecedented success. It's fine to critique......but to critique these things is fucking absurd. I'll shut up now, but I've needed to say this for a while now.

[@Aaron-kj8dv]

It would've also been nice to take out the 3 hottest teams in the playoffs. But instead we got the 3 toughest teams so I'll take that. This team is getting battle tested every week.

Nice of Mike to take a break from fighting King Koopa to do a radio show.

I feel like its a dream. The Lions are actually 4 Quarters away from a superbowl.......WTFFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@hicktown1992]

I can’t get comfy saying that, been hurt too much and too often but I do love this team completely, I wouldn’t change anything about this season or this team. What a beautiful season

[@gothvampkid3444]

not scared, but excited, hopeful, willing to bet on my guys against anyone. we're the underdogs this week but weve been the dogs all goddamn year, guess what? here we are. anything can happen and this is a squad juiced on work and miracles. one pride bro

[@iamviridescent]

I never thought it would be anything but a close game. LFG

[@ianthorpe1925]

This is absolutely a winnable game. Purdy's play will be the deciding factor.

[@aaronjimenez9625]

That goes for everyone on the field 😂…..31-13 49ers

Love this show. Rico and Mike were built for sports talk show. Glad we are playing the best football team in the 49ers. As a Lion fan I am embracing this underdog mentality. May the team that plays the best win.

[@JoshuaRamos-en6yi]

Ricos takes are trash lmfao

[@wyattbarnes9641]

When he’s not going on nonsensical rants about Michigan Mike is easily the best host at the station

[@fireestyle]

so lemme get this straight, a few bandwagon fans who probably didn’t even know the lions record a few weeks ago, say we’re gonna win by a blowout and yall take that as the entire fan base saying that lol 😂

[@simomino7768]

I don't think he's generalizing the whole fanbase. If you don't think it applies to you, I wouldn't be concerned

[@fireestyle]

@@simomino7768 i mean it applies to such a small part of the fan base that even responding to it insinuates that it was more than just a few cocky fans. most fans knew that it was gonna be a close game.

[@L7cky11]

Right

[@scarface188]

Get rid of Rico! He is the absolute worst. Put a chat GPT prompt with valenti and it would still be better than listening to Rico for more than 15 seconds

[@jarretthoogerhyde1633]

All the pressure is on the 49ers at this point. They have to win the Superbowl this year.

[@aaronjimenez9625]

This is actually true We need this Sixth one already 31-13 49ers

[@BrianWiland]

I said we would win 27-17, a win by 10, and we won by 8! Moving on, per the usual for this resilient team! GO LIONS!

[@JL-sm6cg]

The best part of this is this hits differently than the 1991 NFC Championship game, which I remember like it was yesterday. That was, like, yippee, we get to play the same team that annihilated us to open the season.

[@Ohhelmno]

The one thing I didn’t do last night was report as eligible, weird.

[@jmurray28]

Fortune favors the bold. Hold nothing back. And can you think of a better coach in this situation? Road dog, no pressure, no expectations? MCDC will not allow a "happy to be here" attitude in that locker room. 60 minutes y'all...

[@mikepennock2984]

Valenti the most smug man in Michigan. He's got that wonderful east coast smartest man in the room syndrome. Rico just rambling like always. Great show guys. Keep up the below average work.

[@Spaceamace21]

Don't listen then pusy

[@uTubeNoITube]

Seems a lot of people are mixed up between picking the winning team and picking the spread... they are two different things completely.

[@debrabolton7748]

If I was the coach, I would bring in Yzerman or Isaiah and tell the team how hard that last game is and how deep you have to dig for it. Motivation baby. Make them dream hard about a championship.

[@capriomichael1879]

Go Lions! 🦁 🦁

[@dannye7612]

Feels weird, don't it?

[@NuRm69]

I thought the Lions would win by 14, which they were up by late in the game till the defense laid a turd on the 2nd to last drive after giving up a 4th and 14. But outside of that, the game went how i felt it would have went

[@jordan1016s]

It's kinda funny how picked Tampa +6.5, lost the bet and still trying to brag lmao

[@timstort8223]

If I remember Valenti had the buc’s +6.5, anyone else recall that, he’s been wrong last 7/8 weeks constantly picking against the lions, flip flopped

[@Cavaysh1]

Somehow Mike likes them more Rico and David who are from Detroit

[@Loganbub]

Yea one thing I can’t stand about this show. Mike gets a pass but 2 Michiganders not being Lions fans? I get the apathy and having other rooting interest or teams/players we liked since we all probably did with how garbage they were forever but my primary fandom still stayed with the Lions even if I despised them.

[@charlesmurphy3222]

I already got my hotel reservation in Downtown Detroit for the Super Bowl. That's my wager this week. Detroit may get beat. They may get blown out. I think it will be a 60 minute street fight. Pressure is on the Niners not gagging again. Especially at home.

[@johnbarletta3988]

Mike, To borrow y'all's phrase, mistakes were made- not turnovers or a lot of penalties , but secondary assignments had to be wrong more than a few times. We have to clean that up ! But yeah, I too knew it'd be tough. This Tampa D was legit all year

[@scottysmulder464]

You can never hear the drops

[@treyturner8446]

There are no decent broadcasters for this show who are actual Lions fans?

[@garywright7826]

You can't be a fan in that profession ... You have to be bias .

[@RippingItAllSportsCards]

It's why it's so good. Mike tells it how it is. There's no homerism. He has said many of times he wants the Lions to do well for the city, the state and there's no doubt he wants the Lions to win it all. It's good for business.

[@grumpypoof9648]

​@RippingItAllSportsCards That's what people want too. Their little safe echo chambers where they can just hear how great their team is.

[@wyattbarnes9641]

Listen 10-2, those guys have the biggest man crush on Holmes and Campbell you’ll be wanting to switch back to Valenti

[@chrisbarr959]

Glenn had the Bucs guessing where the the delay Blitz was coming from all day . i think it's one of the reason Hockenson came clean .they confused the right tackle who thought it was a linebacker blitz

[@grumpypoof9648]

Hockenson doesn't play for Detroit and when he did he sure as hell didn't play defense😅

[@GenXFarmer77]

Don't get it twisted, the niners are 60 minutes from a superbowl and the lions are just a formality 😂

[@joewilliams3204]

If we were “supposed” to win why did you pick TB. You might be happy for the fans (your customers) but you think of the Lions as inferior to anyone left in the playoffs.

[@jareddavis1749]

It’s because it drives engagement towards the show. Mikes not stupid. He knows how to run a show

He picked the lions to win and Tampa to cover the 7.5 point spread. Huge difference.

[@rubypickles1836]

One thing I hate about Valenti is that he's been here so long but still calls the Lions "your team" specifically pointing out that he is not a "Lions guy". After almost 20yrs in Detroit I would think he could embrace the home team.

[@Loganbub]

He slips up often and says “we” when referring to the Lions. Lowkey I think he’s a slight fan but obviously they’re not his main team.

[@paul340mopar]

So if the Lions were your team all your Life, and then you move to another State for like 20 Years, then you become a Fan of said Team/State? In the NFL Fandom, You stick with your Team for LIFE, Unless your a Bandwagon Slappy!
