This is the classic Lions slot. It’s for fans who like their heartbreak before 4 PM. You wake up, you stretch, you yell at the TV while your neighbors mow their lawns. Perfect for a mid-afternoon meltdown.
If the game is early, you can still salvage your evening. Win or lose, you’ve got time to grill burgers or stare blankly at the ceiling. It’s a win-win, really.
The Afternoon Showdown (4:25 PM ET)
This one means the Lions are getting national attention—or at least a regional broadcast. It’s the “main course” of the Sunday buffet. By now, you’ve already watched two other games and eaten half a bag of pretzels.
Expect higher stakes here. The 4:25 slot often pits the Lions against a marquee opponent. Or, you know, the Bears again. Either way, the sun will be lower, the lighting will be dramatic, and your blood pressure will spike accordingly.
