Detroit Lions Get Shout Out From Metallica’s James Hetfield

By Jade Springart December 23rd, 2022

We know Dan Campbell loves him some Metallica, but it looks like Metallica might love them some Detroit Lions!

When the big Metallica shows were announced at Ford Field, Dan Campbell posted a video welcoming them back to Detroit and into the Lion’s Den. James Hetfield returned the favor and even hinted at rooting for the Lions. Will Roger Goodell let that weekend be a bye week for the Lions?! I hope so! I would LOVE to see Dan at Ford Field for those shows!

The Internet Reacts to the Detroit Lions' Unstoppable Winning Streak

The Detroit Lions are on a roll, and I mean a roll. The team has won six of their past seven games and are on their way to possibly making NFL history.

The Lions defeated the New York Jets on Sunday (Dec. 18), in what was a very tight game, 20-17. I’m drinking the Blue Kool-Aid! View the best Twitter reactions from the win below.

Check out the latest episode of “The Squad with Anne Erickson” below, talking all things Lions. Give me your take on Facebook here!
