Wan’Dale Robinson Sets NFL Ablaze by Admitting “We Didn’t Lose to the Lions, We Lost to Jahmyr Gibbs” – And Gibbs’ Humble Response Left the Entire League Bowing in Respect
Detroit – November 24, 2025
The Detroit Lions vs New York Giants game ended 34–27 in overtime, but its aftershock is still rippling across the NFL. It wasn’t just the breathless chase; it was one jaw-dropping post-game moment: Giants superstar Wan’Dale Robinson’s blunt, full-of-respect declaration about Jahmyr Gibbs – the man who just delivered one of the greatest performances in Detroit Lions history.
All eyes were on Gibbs after he essentially carried the entire Lions offense on a day the defense struggled. The young RB finished with 219 rushing yards, 45 receiving yards, and 3 touchdowns – including the 69-yard game-winning sprint on the very first play of overtime. Back-to-back explosions of 49 and 69 yards completely shredded the Giants defense and turned the game into his personal stage.
After the game, Wan’Dale Robinson – the brightest star on the Giants side with 156 receiving yards – didn’t hesitate to pay rare, glowing tribute. “The reality is we didn’t lose to the Lions. We lost to Jahmyr Gibbs. That’s a player who can change an entire game with one single moment. I’ve never faced an RB who put that kind of pressure on us for all four quarters and overtime.” Those words instantly set social media on fire and sent Lions Nation into absolute euphoria.
But what truly earned the entire NFL’s admiration was Gibbs’ response. When asked about Robinson’s praise, he refused to take the credit. “Wan’Dale is a warrior and the Giants played a hell of a game. But football is a team sport. I just did my job. This win came from the whole team – from the O-line opening lanes, from the defense holding when it mattered, and from the entire locker room that never quit.” That humble attitude only made Gibbs even more beloved.
The Lions head into Thanksgiving with more belief than ever, while the NFL keeps talking about a performance many are already calling an “absolute masterpiece.” A heart-stopping game, an unreal individual display, and a moment of pure mutual respect between two young stars – all of it created one of the most beautiful stories in the middle of the NFL’s cutthroat competition.
