Some notable Detroit Lion fans were disappointed, but grateful for the successful season.
Here's what some had to say following the 34-31 loss to the San Francisco 49ers Sunday night.
So close…it’s a 60 minute game though. We say it a lot but it sure is true! Man…so many ways it could have been different…opportunities missed in second half cost the Lions… could have been different. Last thing I thought was Purdy’s legs beat us

I’m not a Lions fan, but anyone who claims about this team and what it gave Detroit this season is a punk.

Knew I shouldn’t have googled “how do you get Super Bowl tickets” during halftime https://t.co/Efk33y6ks3

That was a hell of a season @Lions. You gave the entire state a moment of true unity, and made us proud. We got ‘em next year. #OnePride

I tuned into @971theticketxyt hoping for some group therapy and commiseration over the #Lions. Instead, I got insanity, everything from replacing Campbell with Ben Johnson to replacing Goff with Justin Fields (!)

Apparently I need to turn elsewhere for comfort.
Still #OnePride
