The Detroit Lions were on a 2-year losing steak, until rookie Matthew Stafford and the rest of the Lions took down the Washington Redskins. Stafford who was the first pick taken in the NFL draft, did not disappoint the fans in attendance. They have literally waited for this day since his junior year of football at Georgia.

The headlines read that the losing steak was finally over, Stafford has arrived, The Lions finally win one, I think you get the point. Stafford has a cannon for an arm and his brief career has showed flashes of brilliance. If he can get some help from his defense, the Lions could be the team of the future.   (more...)

    Barry Sanders of the Detroit Lions is without a doubt, the best running back I ever got the pleasure of watching on the tube. The way he broke defenders ankles on jukes and cut backs can not be duplicated. It was my satisfaction and a true thrill to watch this beast of a  running back out of Oklahoma State. It is a crying shame that he ended his career just a bit too soon in my opinion. Still, he was one of the best backs ever.   (more...)

     The Detroit Lions have made it Official, They are now the team that cannot be beat when it comes to the number of losses. Most of the NFL fans saw the freight train wreck that the Lions were headed to earlier in the season, but you have got to play with what you brought to the game. Unfortunately they did not have the kahunas and probably the right leadership to get the job of winning done.

 This is not new to the fans since it has been a year since they have won a game. Each of the games in the 2008 season has been filled with one disappointment after another. The game against the Green Bay Packers today was not the exception that the Lions had hoped for. Now they can only go up in the stats for next year and I am sure there will be some major changes.

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.
