The Detroit Lions own a dubious piece of NFL history. Detroit became the first 0-15 team ever when it was routed 42-7 by the New Orleans Saints on Sunday. The Lions where they haven't won since 1991, will try to avoid a perfectly awful season in the finale at Green Bay!!!
Detroit Lions fans got excited when the Lions finally fired team president Matt Millen following an 0-3 start and a 31-84 mark over seven-plus seasons. All though the team hasn't been able to overcome the mess he left behind. The Lions are the NFC-worst 10-25 since hiring Marinelli. Rod Marinelli has been sticking with the similar mantra for two-plus seasons and the results have not been any good on Sundays, making Millen's final record an NFL-worst.
As far as the game Sunday Detroit scored its only points with the Lions Kevin Smith and his 1-yard run early in the second quarter. The Lions opened the second half with a penalty for breaking the huddle with 12 players, and things seemed only to get worse as the game continued. Drew Brees connected with Marques Colston twice in the third quarter for a 42-7 lead. Detroit benched Dan Orlovsky early in the fourth quarter, where he had sadly only completed 10 of 23 passes for 125 yards, with two interceptions. Dan has now fallen to 0-6 in his career as a starting Quarterback.
I guess the only question that is on everyone's mind is Will Detroit even win another game? Most likely they will but i don't see it happening this season. They have to finish out this year at Green Bay, And i just don't see the Packers going down in history as the team that Detroit beat to end their horrific losing streak.

Well don’t hold your breath for them winning any games this season. Everyone wants to get into the playoff, well unless you are the cowboys. I mean they really stunk up the place on their last game. They should have stayed home. How embarrassing…
Sorry, I digressed…The Lions bites and I am glad I am not a fan of that team. My stomach will be in knots right now. I cannot believe that soon the season will be over.
Hi!, You post regarding Lions Set New Record | Best NFL Jersey looks very interesting for me. Keep up the good work.
I just wanted to thank you very much for this informative article. I have already bookmarked your site, when I have more free time I am going to have to do some further research. Well back to my dreaming of Panama or back to the books – I wonder which one is going to win out.
