Champ - Kerry Carpenter for his performance in game 5 of the ALDS against the Seattle Mariners. The Tigers wound up on the wrong end of the longest winner-take-all postseason game in MLB history. Their season is over after a 3-2 loss in 15 innings to the Mariners in Game 5 of the ALDS.
Chump - Brian Branch for his actions following the Lions loss to the Chiefs. Branch is now suspended a game. Branch smacked Smith-Schuster in the face mask after Smith-Schuster appeared to say something to Branch when Branch declined to slap hands with Patrick Mahomes as the final seconds ticked off the clock.
