Look: Must-Watch Lions Playoff Hype Videos
The Detroit Lions are embarking on one of their most anticipated home games in franchise history.
Supporters and content creators have put together quality hype videos to get the fanbase, who are eagerly anticipating the 8 p.m. kickoff, energized and ready to root on the team in their efforts to defeat the Los Angeles Rams at Ford Field.
Team president Rod Wood took to social media Sunday to share, "#Lions fans, thank you for all your years of support especially this season. You've waited a long time for this. We know you're ready to create a gameday atmosphere unlike anything @forfield has ever seen. Get there early, be louder than ever, and lets make this a night we'll never forget."
Part of the reason the fanbase has been energized has been head coach Dan Campbell leading the way and coaching a young, gritty football team that has been able to demonstrate resiliency in the face of adversity.
Detroit's third-year head coach expressed this week that he also has admiration for Rams head man Sean McVay, due to the sustained success of his NFC West team.
"Tremendous amount of respect. This guy’s won a Super Bowl in this League. And when he came on the scene in ’17, man, it just erupted. They took off. What they – their kind of brand of football that they do, very (Gary) Kubiak, that’s where – that to me is where this grew from. (Mike) Shanahan, Kubiak and to see what he’s been able to do with it, how efficient they are -- it’s very creative, innovative and I think more than anything, he’s just stayed true to who he’s been over time," said Campbell. And listen, you can’t argue with the results.
"I mean they’re competitive every year. Had a little rough one last year, had some injuries, things of that nature, but man, every year these guys have always been – they’re in it. So, yeah, I’ve got a lot of respect for him.”
Here is a collection of the top hype videos created for supporters to get ramped up for the Lions playoff game.
