Last night I went into a Lions fan site to see how the vibe was.

I would say the Lions are cautiously optimistic about the game Saturday.

I posted a link to our site so hopefully we can get some good-natured discussions going.

Here is a link to the site: The Official Site of the Detroit Lions

They have every right to be optimistic, their team has played well and they're in the playoffs for the first time in years.
That being said, we are playing what I think is the best football I've seen from our team and we need to continue that going forward, the lions are standing in our way and I too am very optimistic about our saints!

I posted that Saints fans think of the Lions as our northern cousin because both have had bad teams for so long.

Hopefully some will come over for some good-natured discussions.

I just hope that Suh has learned his lesson and keeps his "feet" off of our players. It would NOT be cool to lose a player/players in the playoffs to something as stupid as Suh's temper/inability to control himself.

Greetings from a Lions fan here, not here to start trouble, just to talk football!

I went to the Lions/Saints game a month ago, and you guys were by far the best fans i've ever seen. Seriously, you all were very cool to me, even though I was in my Lions jersey.

Any questions you have about the Lions, fire away, I will give you my honest opinion.

There was ONE team I was not looking forward to playing in the playoffs, and it's the saints. But, to be the best, you gotta beat the best, right?!

if/when you all win on Saturday, PLEASE beat the Packers and 49ers!!!

Same to the Lions!!

Happy New Year & congratulations on your season.

Although I believe the Saints will win Saturday, I want to wish the best to the Lions and their fans and hope whichever team goes forward has no injuries!!

If their was some way to go back to 1987 & see how optimistic we were going into our FIRST playoff game EVER. Look what happened. (45-10?)

The playoffs is a whole new ballgame & we have been there - the Lions have not.

I didn't see the GB game...was wondering if J. Bell played any for the Lions? I was dissapointed to see him go. Good runner.

I hope more Lions fans come.
