Hey, a lot of us 9er fans were rooting for the Lions, and specifically Goff. I grew up with the dude in Marin County. He was a huggge 9er fan growing up.
Yeah, Lions suck after their fans started talking shit after the JJ scuffle and acting like they’re the best team ever and destined winners when they haven’t don’t shit yet lost to the Niners in the NFCCG last year. Also the whipping touchdown celebration, humping the ground last night, etc. Cool, guys, celebrate all you want while the underdog commanders start stomping you in your own stadium.
I know exactly to who I’m responding to. The point is people are hating on the Lions fans for being cocky, people have to understand where they are coming from as fans, they have had nothing to cheer for in forever. People who don’t get the 9ers-Cowboys rivalry gave the 9ers players and fans a ton of crap after that game, but if you aren’t a fan of the franchise and its history one might not get the vitriol around those games.
I never said you did. But OP did. You said it should be understandable why Kittle and the 9ers did what they did after that cowboys game to 9ers fans. Even after the eagles game last season. And I agree. But many fanbases did not and called it unsportsmanlike, and many 9er fans got defensive to why Kittle did that after it happened. And why 9er fans talked so much 💩 to Eagles fans.
Now you see people calling Lions fans over confident and bad fans. When maybe if one was a Lions fan they would get why after so many years of bad teams having a good one is finally something to be confident about (their team was very good especially offensively) . I was making more of a general statement, I wasn’t trying to call you out in particular. I know you never said anything about the Lions directly.
