Detroit Lions troll ‘Breaking Bad’ star after playoff win over Rams

DETROIT – The Detroit Lions trolled a “Breaking Bad” star and huge Rams fan who was inside Ford Field for Detroit’s playoff victory.

Bryan Cranston is the actor who played Walter White on the popular AMC show “Breaking Bad,” but he’s also a super fan of the Los Angeles Rams.

Cranston was in Ford Field for Sunday night’s playoff game between the Lions and Rams, and the NFL tweeted a video of him about an hour before kickoff.

“Just like in the wildlife, when Rams see Lions out and about, you know, they look friendly -- go Rams,” Cranston said.

OK, so maybe Cranston isn’t much of a trash talker, but that doesn’t mean he was safe from the Lions’ social media team.

After the Lions defeated the Rams 24-23, they quote tweeted the video of Cranston with a “Breaking Bad” reference: “I won.” It’s got to be strange to get trolled by an NFL franchise with a picture of yourself, right?

Sorry, Bryan. This time, the Lions were the ones who knocked.
