I feel like the narrative that Barry Sanders played on a bunch of bad Lions teams was and is a bit misleading. No none of his lion teams were ever legit Super Bowl contenders, but they did make the playoffs 5 times in Barry’s 9 year career there.

@@bruceleeroy8302 Mainly because of him yes. But they also had 2 really good recievers in Brett Perriman and Herman Moore, who might have been the most underrated WR of the 90's. They also had some pretty good to very good defenses led by Chris Spielman. Yes Barry was by far there biggest star and most valuable player, but he did play on a handful of solid to good Lions teams.

Dave Krieg (most underrated Quarterback in NFL history) did a great job rallying the Lions into the playoffs and in this game. That missed field goal by Hanson was huge. I’m not saying the Lions were going to win the Super Bowl because the 49ers were on a mission, but they could’ve done some damage had they won this game.

James Michael they had already beaten the Cowboys in Dallas that year, they would have been a much better matchup for them than the Packers proved to be. Especially with Krieg starting this time around instead of Mitchell Tho to be fair to Mitchell he performed well in the first matchup with Dallas

Kreig's terrible throw there was what cost them. That receiver was 7-8 yards clear of the corner. If he makes even a semi accurate throw there, it's an easy touchdown. These are the types of misses that don't show up in the stat sheet

I was at that game. It was my first game at Lambeau. I was at their Week 10 matchup early the previous month in Milwaukee (which was the first Packer game I have ever been to). I was 14 and have been living in Garland (suburban Dallas) for nearly a year and a half at that time. I had family in Green Bay as well.

I highly doubt that. The score might've been 1 TD closer( than 35-9) with Sterling. Emmitt sat out the 3 quarters of that same playoff game the following week. Robert Brooks turned out to be just as good( until injuries eventually shortened his time as well) and the team got better by being more evenly ball distributed( using Chumra, Levans, Bennett, Keith Jackson, Freeman)

Yes the Packers have owned the Lions since the 1960’s in big games. From Starr, to Favre to Rodgers. That being said this playoff game snd the previous one in 1993 were extremely close. It’s a game of inches. One play here another there and it’s the Lions moving on in the playoffs. Being a Lion fan is not easy.
