He spoke for all Packers fans.
The Green Bay Packers' season ending on three straight defeats isn't how we envisioned it playing out. They left their playoff loss to the Philadelphia Eagles with more questions than answers, setting up a huge offseason for general manager Brian Gutekunst.
If there's one positive from the past two weeks, it's that the Detroit Lions and Minnesota Vikings experienced the same fate.
The two teams combined for a 29-5 record and swept the Packers, but ultimately have nothing to show for it.
Detroit's loss was particularly hilarious. Lions fans were ready to hang the banners after a franchise-best 15-2 record led them to the NFC's top seed. With home-field advantage forcing the conference's Super Bowl path to go through Detroit, surely now was their time?
The sixth-seed Washington Commanders had other ideas. They embarrassed the Lions, with Washington coach Dan Quinn showing former colleague Matt LaFleur how it's done.
It wasn't just Packers fans who enjoyed the Lions' humbling.
Like most Packers fans, Keisean Nixon enjoyed watching the Lions' season end early.
Nixon is speaking on behalf of the entire Packers fanbase. It was hilarious to watch.
Lions fans had a lot to say about the Packers this season, but that's fine. We should expect that. Green Bay dominated the NFC North for so many years, and Detroit is finally enjoying the spotlight.
But Lions players also spoke a lot of trash.
Remember when Amon-Ra St. Brown showed up at Lambeau Field with a Green Bay Sucks hoodie? Or, "GreenBay Sucks," as it actually read.
Even Lions head coach Dan Campbell angered several fanbases (including the Packers) after his bold prediction that Detroit and Minnesota would meet again in the NFC Divisional Round, effectively disregarding the possibility of a Green Bay playoff win.
The Packers have made the playoffs for two straight years with the youngest team in football. The Lions, to their credit, have been the pick of the NFC North, going 27-7 in that time. However, they have two postseason victories, an NFC title game meltdown, and an embarrassing home playoff loss to show for it.
Now, the Lions will likely lose offensive coordinator Ben Johnson and defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn, creating uncertainty over their Super Bowl window.
Isn't it perfect?
