Golden Tate hears the boos and understands the pain of Lions fans

ALLEN PARK -- Golden Tate said he heard the ire on Monday night, the boos and the storming out and even what the Jets fans had to say.

Of course, how could he not.

Lions fans didn't hold back before they bolted for the Ford Field exits in the third quarter of the team's 48-17 loss on Monday Night Football. They booed into the double digits, and then they left the stadium to Jets fans to complete the night with a "J-E-T-S! JETS! JETS! JETS" chant.

It was a rough night all-around for the Lions, and some players afterward have denied ever hearing the boos.
