The Lions have got to be everyone’s second favourite team…right?

[buffblue]

I don't have a second favorite team. Out of the other 31 organizations I dislike some more than others, but I don't "root" for any of them (unless it's to the Bills advantage)

[US Egg]

Ask me my favorite sports team, without hesitation I say Yankees. 

 

Go Bills!

I've never understood the concept of having 'second favorite teams.'  

Do you have second favorite wives too?

The Bills are the only team that i sit down and watch every game religiously and in fact, my wife knows that when i'm watching a Bills game, it's better to stay out of the room cause things are flying........there is no "2nd team" for me.

[bleve]

Bills only, no such thing as a 2nd favorite.

 

Although it would be a great potential theme for the Superbowl - Battle of the Great Lakes.

 

If the Bills ever played the Vikings in the Superbowl, go embrace your loved ones - it may be the end of the world as we know it. Someone would have to win. 😗

As far as the NFC, I'm more of a Vikings fan because I just like Sam Darnold....

I have to admit I never saw this season coming out of Darnold. Pretty incredible!

[yall]

As far as the NFL goes, the NFC North has always been my favorite outside of the Bills;

 

A) Barry *****in Sanders 

B) Brett Favre

C) My highschool team name/mascot was "Vikings"

D) 85' BearS

The only time I’d openly root for the lions is if they were playing the chiefs in the Super Bowl

Or when they play the Pats, Dolphins, and Jets.

Definitely are my 2nd favorite team. I was lucky enough to get to watch the greatest RB due in NCAA history at Oklahoma State... Thurman Thomas then Barry Sanders. Thurman is the reason I'm a Bills fan all these years later, but I really enjoyed following Barry's career. 

 

Then a few years ago, the Lions drafted Malcom Rodriquez from Oklahoma State and the due was a STEAL in the draft. He's a baller, even as small as he is. So I want him to do well... hate that he torn his ACL a couple of weeks ago. 

 

The only other team I rooted/pulled for was the Steelers, when they drafted both Mason Rudolph and James Washington in the same draft. I quickly learned that the Steelers have the worst fans in the NFL. By far.

I used to have a soft spot in my heart for the Cleveland Browns, but brownie the elf ruined that for me

The Browns fans are awesome, too bad their owner might be an all-time top 3 idiot.

Well, I'm still waiting on Jaclyn Smith to repond to my love letter I wrote in 1978🤣

[GASabresIUFan]

I live in the ATL and I'd like the Falcons to actually play well.

 

I will never root for the Lions.  Not now or ever.  Is it a nice story that they finally have a good team?  I honestly don't care.  They are just another stepping stone for the Bills to overcome to win a Super Bowl and bring a modern championship back to the long suffering fans of WNY.

I will not cheer for Detroit or Cleveland in any circumstance to get a ring before Buffalo. I have found Detroit also to be incredibly arrogant of late which will only get worse with a ring and Cleveland because of the Watson thing I do not want to ever get a thing as long as Haslam is there. Minnesota unless we play them I will cheer for as they have went through our pain and I have a very close friend who is a diehard Vikings fan so for him I would pull from them.

 

But otherwise I have no second team and under no circumstance do I want another ringless team (except MIN) before Buffalo, I would cheer for Dallas or New England to get another ring before I ever cheer for another team not Buffalo to get a ring before us.

The one thing I don’t like about the Lions is that Tre White and Vin Miller both got hurt on that turf.

 

Is this the cousin of Vin Diesel, Vin Miller? lol

I've never understood the concept of a second favourite team. There is your team who you want to win. Then there are just varying degrees of how much you want any other team to lose.

 

In fairness to Sabre fans were allowing 2nd teams just on a pure sanity clause given the emotional toll that team has put us through lol.

 

I found these days I cheer for individual players more than anything if it isn't my team.

[SoonerBillsFan]

I like their OS HC.  I like the team how it's been built.  I hope they have success for their fanbase when not playing us

[Gman10]

I agree, I would like to see a MCDC/Lions SB. The emotion and love that guy has is second to none. 
 

Id love a Bills SB, but this isn't their year. 
 

[DapperCam]

My second favorite team kind of moving target. I used to be sympathetic to the Browns, but they aren’t very likable at the moment. I’ll have to say the Lions.

see I disagree with that. I want Bills as #1 team, but outside of Bills Im always cheering for the Lions. 
 

Like next year Im going to a TB Bucs game, if the Bucs aren't playing the Bills in Tampa, I surely hope they're playing the Lions cause ill go to that game instead.
