Nobody mentions that Matthew Stafford went to the same high school as Bobby Lane. He was drafted 51 years after the curse. We had to trade Stafford to finally break it.

Jeff Daniels spoke facts on people’s perception and opinions of Detroit. My wife is a native Detroiter and when we go to dinners or events and she proudly tells folks she is from the 313 their faces twist up. They say some ignorant shit about crime and poverty. She gracefully educates them and lets them know that the city is full of hardworking beautiful souls.

I’ve always admired Detroit, I’m from northeast Indiana, closest big city to me is Detroit, and whenever people try to talk Ill of Detroit I always mention how that city, particularly, helped the war effort in WW2 to such a degree that Stalin himself said to FDR “Detroit is winning the war” and how in 1944 a flight ready B-24 came off the production line every hour. There’s a deep history there that deserves to be respected.

Dan Campbell's record before the bathtub: 4-17-1. His record since: 21-7

[@HonoluluBlue81]

I’m proud to be a Detroiter and when I travel I always wear my Lions gear or the Olde English D of the Tigers. Loyal to the soil till I die. Go Lions! Go get this motherf’er.

[@jamesaren152]

Jeff Daniels is a true homie! The way he said "it's certainly not Dallas" shows he rolls deep with the team.

[@penultimate8643]

They didn't try to break it, they broke it. 💪🦁

Met Jeff while filming the Civil War movie, "God's and General's" in Harper's Ferry in 2001. Such a great person! Then years later he let us Civil War re-enactors be in his annual golf outing causing havoc to the golfers as they tee'd off. At the movie premier in Jackson, Michigan, he gave us autographed posters of him along with his signed picture of him in his uniform. A great actor and a wonderful class act human being. Thanks so much Jeff for the wonderful memories! From a Vietnam Era Marine Corps veteran.

Honestly, I think the entire country is rooting for Detroit. I'm a Niners fan, so despite my confidence they'll beat the Lions, I'd be happy for Detroit if they won. And if by chance they do win, I'm definitely rooting for them to win the Superbowl.

[@MikeGarland22]

Watching them for 60 years and I agree with Jeff. It’s a different feeling here now with the Lions.

[@adelhardtlyl]

I love jeff daniels so much 🫶

[@nicktipton3702]

89 Michigan win the NCAA tournament and the Pistons win the NBA championship, in 98 Michigan wins the frozen 4 and the Red Wings win the Stanley Cup, and this year Michigan won the championship in football so it's our year

[@wfvesely]

I agree with Dan about one thing, Jeff Daniels speech in the newsroom to me is the best TV I've ever seen. It's so well written and so well acted, I go back and watch it once in a while it's so good. Plus Jeff is a really good person who is on the right side of history on many issues. Just an all-around good guy.

[@jamesallen7093]

I like to call myself a vintage detroit fan that goes back to the mid 60s . From Big Alex through kramer , Billie , Barry to Scott never liked him mitchell , megatron , Matthew and co. But this is the first time as a detroit fan know were all involved in something special to quote coach . Love you detroit dan ! And thank you thank you thank you shiela ! You did it !

[@dgefive]

I’m proud of our Lions regardless of the next two games. I moved to Texas 8 years ago and wish Detroit won that last game but I guess in a way we did. Go Lions!

[@joepa87114]

Jeff Daniel’s delivered the greatest single word of dialog in movie history. “BAYONETS!”

[@CraftComputing]

Jeff has more experience than me, but I fully agree. This feels different. I'm a lifetime Oregon Ducks and Detroit Lions fan... and I've watched Oregon build from an 0-0 Toilet Bowl, to a bowl game, to a bowl win, to a Rose Bowl appearance, to a single Pac-10 title, to national prominence, to perennial favorites and national title games. Detroit, it feels similar starting with the 0-16, to 2011 going 11-5 and making the playoffs, and now, not only winning games but winning a PAIR of playoff games, and it feels like more than a scrappy underdog story. It feels like Detroit belongs, and they have this entire season. And it feels like no matter what happens on Sunday, they're going to belong next year. I've never experienced this, even back in the days of Barry and Moore.

[@mambalevel1017]

Love Detroit!!! Can’t wait to see us win this whole thing

[@toddmatson4179]

Jeff Daniels is a huge champion for Detroit and the whole state of Michigan...

[@Cheebaroni812]

Went to college in Texas but my college roommate was from Detroit. Within ten minutes of meeting the guy tried to fight me. Ended up being the coolest most genuine guy ever. Still my best friend to this day. They’re a different breed for sure 😂
