Eminem begs Matthew Stafford to lose for Lions

In a post shared by the Sunday Night Football on NBC , the rapper pleads Stafford to let the Lions win their first round game against the quarterback's Los Angeles Rams.

Stafford. What'd I say? You owe me this favor, bro. I was there for you when you won it. I was there for you. I was right there. I rapped for you, Stafford. Bro, I rapped for you. Can you just let us have this one? Just this one.

Eminem is an avid Lions fan, having spent the majority of his life in Detroit. Eminem refers to his performance during halftime of Super Bowl LVI, when Stafford and the Rams won it all.

Stafford spent 12 seasons with the Lions, making the playoffs on three occasions but failing to win any of those games. The Lions haven't won a playoff game since the 1991 season.
