This is FUN. Watching the Detroit Lions win (52-14 over Tennessee), and another Sonic run from Jahymr Gibbs. 70 yards to the house - and of course Josh Bayer turned it into another Sonic run.

So much to talk about - including Gibbs going full Sonic for the Detroit Lions

A couple of weeks ago the running back duo of Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery asked to be called "Sonic and Knuckles" (Gibbs in the role of Sonic obviously). The Lions were on the ropes early, down 10-0 when Gibbs tore on off the right side for a TD...and Josh Bayer (who is CRAZY talented) created this #Sonic edit for the ages (coupled with the original run)

Jahymr Gibbs takes it to the house for the Detroit Lions

What does this win mean?

Honestly, it means a lot for the team - after losing Hutch for the year and trying to figure where the pass rush will come from (hello Maxx Crosby), this was a huge test for Dan Campbell's guys. Was it easy? Nope. The NFC North has become the hardest division in football, and when you watch games like this one you get it - and realize the Lions are built for this stuff.

listen man to say that I'm proud of you would be the massive understatement that's the way to come in here everything we talked about from the time we got the halftime to the way we had to finish it out man composure right communication attitude patience patience my god man you guys didn't bat an eye I love this freaking team I love the coaches I love the players I love everything about it man we are so freaking hardened. Even when shit doesn't go the way we want it to, man, you find a way. That is an outstanding win. We are 1-0 in the division. Gentlemen, that's one. Break it down!
