The Detroit Lions have been experiencing a whale of a season, and it’s almost time for them to get onto a bigger stage and take their success to the next level.
They have an 12-5 after their win in a Week 18 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings, and while they’re the third seed in the NFC, they are still in good shape to make a run.
One big factor in Detroit’s success this year has been its tag-team duo of David Montgomery and rookie Jahmyr Gibbs at running back. In particular, Gibbs has been a revelation, and he has made a great impression on many observers, including the greatest Lions player of them all.
Legendary running back Barry Sanders said on “The Pat McAfee Show” that Gibbs has been impressive and that every time he gets the ball, it seems he’s about to “do something exciting.”
