January 5, 1992.
3 playoff losses in the 35 years before that.
9 playoff losses in the 32 years to follow that.
But it's not just the playoff drought.
The Lions have been playing football since 1934.
They're 26th in winning percentage with an all-time record of 591-707-34.
No sugar coating it. The Lions have been bad.
But I know that when you've gone through the darkness, the light is that much brighter.
The Lions crowd has been absolutely deafening. Their fans are showing up and showing out. And they get to see TWO playoff wins at home. Regardless of what happens on Sunday, that's something they can hold on to and build from.

Last year, the 49ers made the NFC Championship game and lost because they didn't have a quarterback that could throw the ball. This year, we've seen that Purdy can't play in the rain.
My best advice for Lions fans. Start doing a rain dance.
