32 years. That’s how long the Lions had to wait in between playoff wins. Detroit has only made the playoffs 13 times in the 58 years of the Super Bowl era that began in 1966. The Lions didn’t win a playoff game until 1991. One week later, they lost in the NFC Championship. Then, Detroit had to wait until 2023 for their second postseason win and NFC Championship appearance. It’s been nothing but pain and misery for Detroit fans. There was once a glimmer of hope when Matthew Stafford was in town, but he never won a playoff game there. Instead, he was traded and won a ring of his own with the Rams. In that trade, the Lions got Jared Goff, the quarterback that would ultimately lead them to a playoff win and he’d do it alongside Dan Campbell, who played for Detroit during that winless 2008 season. That was rock bottom for the Lions, but the hard times are over.

Tbh, the Stafford trade for Goff and picks is what saved the franchise. We had to start fresh from Patricia mess we got into in the first place. 😢
I disagree. Hiring Campbell, Spielman, and Holmes is what saved this franchise. If the Goff/Stafford trade never happened, the Lions would still be on the rise. They just would not likely be this far ahead in the process.
I say 2 things: Changing ownership from Martha to Sheila and hiring Chris Spielman even though he turned down GM. Those 2 events set us on the current path.
It was a perfect storm that starts with Sheila and every hire she made and the decisions made by those hires etc. Cleaning house after the Quintricia debacle and yes, the trade. ALL of it was integral to the sweeping change the Lions needed.
@@james_ford86all of it
JW who did they drafted? Doesn't show on Wikipedia
As a lifelong Detroit Lions fan, I am super happy that Matthew Stafford got his ring. He proved that he is the elite QB the Lions knew he would become when they drafted him. Now, we can move forward with Goff and look forward to a promising future with him as our QB and Campbell as our HeadCoach. It's the beginning of what is going to be very successful on the field every Sunday for the near future.
Jameson Williams was suspended for betting on college games. The problem was he was on an nfl premises. Go lions!
He also got the year of the last playoff win wrong too. January 5th 1992. I don't know why that bugs me but it just does. When they say 1991, I actually get mad.
And he's produced on the field, maybe not in crazy statistical ways, but his speed threat alone gotta be accounted for. And the dude can block
MCDC's culture and having the balls to fire an underperforming OC (a lesson he learned from watching Sean Payton refuse to move on from staffers who clearly weren't working out).
I bet he learned a lot of things from Sean Payton. The man was 1 of the highest paid coaches in the NFL at one time. He had foresight too. He signed a man with a broken shoulder, and won a Superbowl, and if it was for that no call at the NFC Championship game against the Rams. They would have gotten a chance to win another Superbowl.
Bring a tear to my eyes. I love Goff, that why I left the Rams to follow him. Never felt this way about any other QB.
I have followed Goff since his first game at CAL, also when he played with the Rams and once he was traded I started to follow the Lions. I personally think he is the main reason for the Lions success, because when the chain needs to be moved, he does it. However, I do get upset because the media and a large fan base give him very little credit for the Lions success. When he beat Stafford, it seemed like if Goff was chop liver and everyone was talking about how great Stafford played, yet it was Goff who made the right place to allow the Lions to win.
@@francisco2525 the right place lol and Goff lost a lot of respect after superbowl vs patriots but he’s a good qb still
@@gabriellavasquez9120 He led them to the Superbowl, not his fault that Gurley was a shell of himself after the injury and that McVay was out-coached by Belichick. You put a good and experience coach instead of McVay and the Rams would have won that game. The game was 13-3 and not 55-3, like everyone makes it seem like, and the game was lost in the 4th quarter.
Goff is extremely underrated
I gave up on the Lions in 1995 (when I realized the ownership didnt care about winning), Goff coming to Detroit is what got me back on the bus.
BRAD HOLMES. This video kind of touched on his drafts but non-Lions fans most likely don’t understand the unbelievable amount of value the Lions have gotten out of the later rounds of all of his drafts
Dude is a drafting GOD. Its genuinely insane to watch the shift in Lions drafts. Going from busts through out 1-3, to having starters in rounds as late as 6.
Brad Holmes is absurd on draft. I saw the documentary that the Lions made about the 2023 draft, his work is impeccable. He and Dan are on the same terms and he has the necessary freedom of work from the ownership. Before his GM period, he had a ton of experience with scouting, over 10 years I think, reached director of scouting with the Rams.
Who’s here after the lions just lost:(
Hope they become a force for MANY years to come!!!
I love the Lions, colors, uniforms and stadium. Go Rams!
Make that 33 But as a Lions fan they had a really good year.
fr
Look at the lions man so inspirational!
What is totally overlooked in this video is what Lions fans always called for: change in ownership. During the MP era, Martha Firestone Ford ceded ownership to Sheila Ford Hamp. She put MP on a short leash, and fired the Boston Boys after the 2020 Thanksgiving game embarrassment. The 1st person Sheila brought in to interview for the open GM position was all-time Lion, all-90s LB, analyst, and brother of a GM, Chris Spielman. He declined the GM role, but she still brought Chris in as a freelance executive. Those 2 moves of ownership change to Sheila and hiring of Chris Spielman set the Lions on their current path. And you totally skipped over it.🤦🤷
The lions have over 40 years of not making the playoffs if any fanbase deserves this its them 😢
40 years?

Lol misinformation we made the playoffs 13 times the 32 years is a win in the playoffs till this year and championship was 1957
Thank you so much for making this video, the turnaround this past year and a half has been amazing. No matter what happens, I’m super proud of them. Great video on their story and great job collecting all this info (Also just a heads up to y’all, Jamo’s betting was on a non-nfl sport, but that’s such a minor detail lol this video is still flawless)
..........and then misery is back
I still remember being in BWW when we drafted St-Brown, 60 minutes from the Superbowl
Dan Campbell has also had a chance to learn from one of the greatest coaches to ever do it Sean Payton and that has also payed off big time
Love the lions love 💙💙
Good video it’s more painful to live it but how sweet it is to be a fan today ✊🦁One Pride Baby!!!!
That Stafford trade turned into Jared Goff, Jameson Williams, Jahmyr Gibbs, Sam LaPorta, and Kerby Joseph which is a win I’d say
Normally, I am not fond of coaches who wear emotions on their sleeves (mainly cause sports media LOVES drama, and emotions are a big source of that), but Campbell is absolutely the right person to help turn this Lions team around. While future success is yet to be determined, the Lions do have a strong core to build around, mainly Penei Sewell, Amon-Ra St Brown, and Aidan Hutchinson. Hitting on your draft picks is one thing, but the right coaching is also needed to maximize the team's potential, and the Lions did exactly what with the guys Campbell brought with him. Myself, I think the real challenge for the Lions is whether they can still function as a unit without some of the current pieces. OC Ben Johnson is a name floated around for HC material. Jared Goff is a UFA next season, so the Lions definitely have to think about their next guy under center. Plus, with the core guys I mentioned due for a big payday soon, the Lions have to manage their salary cap properly, lest they let the wrong people walk, which in turn, affects team cohesion. Regardless, I am impressed with how the Lions have turned things around. All I can wish for is this Lions team to continue building momentum for the future.
You have to mention Gibbs and LaPorta now as well. I think they've more than proven their value to the team.
I just noticed that the Lions beat the SB champs from 54-58 in this very season.
I just want one more winning season. I'm 95% confident in the team. One more winning season will prove they are consistent, which would get rid of qlany doubt in them.
Maybe one day the jets will end this drought for me. I’m so happy for lions fans tho and hope this team continues to ball out.
There will never be a fairer trade
I'll admit I didn't think Goff would still be in Detroit by now let alone lead them to the NFC championship game. I wish him and the Lions the best of luck this weekend and hoping Detroit goes all the way.
Seriously...I can't think of a trade that benefitted both teams more. Continuing to build my faith in Brad Holmes.💪🦁💙
As a Washington the lions give me hope that we can not suck
Your team has a better owner now. All they need now is the right GM, head coach and quarterback.
Jameson Williams did not bet on football games, he bet on college basketball games and was in a hotel, which is considered a "Facility" for the team.
Regardless of the Finalized Outcome, the Lions can win a Super Bowl before the Cowboys win one again.
The Lions will win a Super Bowl.
But not this year
@@yesfinallygot1niner fans thinking this is their year. Ask cowboy fans about that feeling.

I don’t know man, what just happened I’m speechless how bad they beat themselves.
Always been a fan of Stafford and the Lions when Goff and Stafford switched teams it was the best trade for both teams. My Rams got their Super Bowl and Lions got their potential next franchise QB which has proven to be true. Was always a fan of Goff but McVay lost his faith which then caused Goff to lose his confidence but Campbell was able to bring that confidence back to him. The entire organization really finally build a great culture and roster. Hoping the Lions and Goff finally get their ring this season
Damn these guys were doing like daily uploads now it’s 1 every two weeks
it is 2 dudes who have a life. Sometimes life comes first... I realize everyone born as a Zillennial has some sort of autism so you are okay!
Lions fans gotta love Stafford and Goff
Thanks bro.. this was awesome.. we here... let's fuckin go..
Jamo didn’t bet on NFL games. He bet on college games while on an NFL facility.
It's Shelia Ford-Hamp. Not to speak ill of the dead but her father bought the team in 1963 and the team had been mediocre in the best of times until his widow turned over the team to their daughter in 2020. Sheila did in 3 years what her father couldn't do in nearly 40. Just saying the man was lead designer at the Ford motor company for 50 years and designed 1 car, the same number of playoff wins the lions had when he was owner.
That 5-0 Score vs dallas in 1970💀💀
So enjoyed hearing about our LIONS
A story worth telling... I hope the Lions bink a SB in the next few seasons. The city has been cursed for 40 years+. Give the people something!
If the Lions win the Super Bowl, a movie will be made: “Biting Goff Kneecaps: an Underdog Story”. It will be a great movie.
Brad Holmes is 100% the Executive of the year and has majorly hit on franchise changing players in each of his first 3 drafts. Not only in the first round but every round he has found key contributors/franchise cornerstones. I don't wanna hear one single analyst's take on next years draft about the lions, well unless they take ANOTHER RB
As a long time Chiefs fan…. I’m rooting for the Lions…….unless of course we meet in the SB. 😏 That would be an awesome matchup especially since you got us in the first game of the year. There a nice script, the first game of the season, the last game of the season.
11:17 Jamo was NOT suspended for betting on NFL games. He specifically bet on NON-NFL games, which is why he wasn't suspended the full season. The reason he got suspended was that he placed his bet at the Lions' facility, but it was on a non-NFL game.
Our bad 🫡
As a Bears fan, I would like for the lions to win the Super Bowl.
Gotta give credit to Brad Holmes and the scouts, their draft successes have been insane recently: (2021) Penei Sewell Amon-Ra St. Brown Derrick Barnes Alim McNeill Ifeatu Melifonwu Jerry Jacobs ~~~ (2022) Aidan Hutchinson Jameson Williams Josh Paschal Kerby Joseph ~~~ (2023) Jahmyr Gibbs Sam LaPorta Brian Branch Jack Campbell
the thing is Detroit went back to NFC Championship game before Dallas😅 my gosh.
You know that's eating at Skip Bayless now. He'll be hating the Lions until the Cowboys get back there.
Dan Campbell was given the rarest resources in the NFL: time. For most other teams he would've been fired in his first season, or for sure mid way through the next when he started off 0-6 or whatever is (real bad though).
While I sort of agree the Lions were so bad you got a lot longer leash automatically cause of how big of a damn hole they dug themselves in prior.
Sheila never stopped believing.
@@kryer981 Sticking with Dan Campbell clearly a W, probably the best coach in the league right now.
Go lions. Sincerely, a Buffalo fan.
From a Lions fan: Go Ravens, trounce KC.
Detroit out here drafting GROWN ASS MEN!!🔥😮💨💯 Starting to stack All-Pros on that roster…. WHO BITE KNEECAPS💀💀💯
This is the same guy that said the Lions are frauds a couple weeks ago lmao
Aren't they all?🙄🤦🤷😂
That black lions jersey though 😅
Stafford was the savior of Detroit Lions football, just not how you think he is. He went to the same high school as Bobby Layne, who cursed us for trading him because he didn't want to be traded. Stafford requested a trade specifically to LA, and previous Lions regimes would have sent him somewhere else, but this one said "We'll get you to LA." We did Layne wrong, but we did Stafford right. That's what broke the Curse.
And the first year we Matt to the Rams. We also got a 3 round pick and it was Iffy
I remember saying fire Campbell in 2021, I'm so glad I was wrong
Yeah!
In a sense the Matt and Jared trade still made Matt the reason why we are successful. So stafford did help us win a playoff game. 😂
Can I point out So... That trade , Ifeatu Melifonwu, Jameson Williams, Josh Paschal, Jahmyr Gibbs, Sam LaPorta all were a DIRECT part of the trade. ALL playing a massive part. Its got to be one of the best trades in history - where both sides came out okay.
The Goff trade was great but make no mistake. This is a result of GM/HC/executive making good solid personnel decisions and drafting great. In the NFL you can turn your team around in 1 year with a 7 round draft
5:01 if I'm not mistaken, he called and pursued the lions job. Not the other way around. Also, thank you for mentioning that botched call in Dallas. lol 👍🏻
This got me fired up for Sunday fuck
As a Lions fan I was routing for the Bengals to beat the Rams in the Superbowl. A couple reasons behind it but the main reason is that if we had to play Stafford in the future, he could come back and be the Lions' worst enemy which he almost did when the Lions played the Rams in the Wildcard round.
Players should learn from Campbell you may not be that guy physically but you can always be that guy with mentality and heart💪 And the brain will always be your most valuable muscle
Boy lions bout to drop more wins Welcome to the super bowl boys 😅😅😅
41-10 That's the score we'll beat 49ers with! 💪
Good video Ty. Williams didn’t bet on nfl games
They didn’t end it - they added to it!
It’s funny that it was 32 years!
LETS GO LIONS
I’m sorry I can’t help but think Dan Campbell sounds like *The Dude* from The Big Lebowski 😭😭😭
Kinda wild that if the lions take this all the way, Staffords legacy in Detroit will vanish.
Spoke to soon 😂
I was at the steelers game when he missed the field goal and extra point. We shouldn't have traded prater
Bro how did the lions go to the NFC championship and the Patriots getting six super bowls. But the Cowboys can’t pass the divisional round. I BLAME YOU JERRY JONES
4:19 this isn’t true, Dan Campbell does have a ring from the New Orleans Saints Super Bowl win
6:32 Maybe the worst call ever...not involving the Lions!
Well we saw this one before
they brought it back😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 (jk they had an amazing season this year, NEXT YEAR IS OUR YEAR)
IF JOFF WIN STAFFORD FOR JOFF WILL BE ONE OF THE GREATEST TRADES IN NFL HISTORY…2 QBS traded to both go on to win the superbowl
No single player wins a playoff game - to say "Stafford couldn't win in the playoffs" - c'mon. I'm a lifelong Lions fan and the Lions TEAM couldn't win in the playoffs. Barry Sanders, one of the greatest running backs in history, "couldn't win in the playoffs" either - because it isn't Greco-Roman wrestling, it's a team sport.
And they will start on the next 32 years today.
Its not ended until they finish. Win the damn Super Bowl!!!
Jameson Williams didn’t bet on nfl games he bet on other sports at the lions facility
Im a 49ers fan, with a soft spot for the Lions and their fans. Best team from the good guys has to go beat the bad guys from the AFC in the Super Bowl. Its time for the NFC to turn some heads.
I'm praying yall don't lose to the chiefs again. I'm a Bills fan, and if mahomes gets back to back rings, I'm probably gonna hang myself 😂
I don’t call KC Chiefs good guys one bit.
@onigiri2032 Honestly watching that game I hated how Detroit matched up with KC. I think they would have cleaned Goff's clock the entire game. I believe that the 49ers match up far better at least this year. Detroit appears to have a very bright future ahead. KC will be very difficult but I like the match-up with them better than the Ravens.
@@DMalltheway he said the chiefs are the bad guys
They won a couple of playoff games this year and choked in the NFC championship game with a 17 point lead at the half. I would not consider that ending 32 years of misery.
You can say the same about the 49ers. They win two playoff games a year then choke ten point leads(or something else) & loose.
Jamo didn’t bet on NFL games. He bet on college games at a team facility.
32 years more like 65 years of misery
Detroit can save the NFL rn
Same old Lions.
Jamo didnt gamble on nfl games. Thats a whole season suspension. It was betting on college football in a team facility.
ONE FUCKING GAME... honestly don't even care who wins superbowl... as long as the Lions make it. The two events have forever been separate to me: Watching Lions games... and watching the superbowl. The fact that the two things might be the same, would be amazing. I get to watch the superbowl, and watch a lions game. Crazy. One win away. Play hard boys.
That's a third with Stafford at the helm and he gets upset about them booing him at playoff game vs Goff😂😂😂
The fans were booing the Rams more than they were booing Stafford.
jameson williams wasnt betting on NFL games, if he was he wouldnt be in the NFL anymore.
Ben Johnson
As a WAS fan I'm excited for him to be our HC. I doubt he'll leave the Lions destitute without him, he'd leave a replacement. Lions and WAS fans lowkey respect each other a lot, closer to an alliance than a rivalry.
Correction, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers were technically never in the NFC North, so they've never won it.
