Detroit Lions: Running Backs Aren’t Their Only Problem
Published on: 14th February, 2010
I understand the best part of being a Detroit Lions fan is the offseason speculation. It brings me no greater joy in the absence of winning than playing Armchair GM, coach, and coordinator. I'm sure others feel the same way. But even with the fun of games such as "To ...Detroit Lions: Outside-the-Box Thinking on Draft Day

With a mind like mine, where mental flatulence is more common than brainstorms, it's caution beware when ideas start to form. With the disclaimer out of the way, here is something I would like to share and draw feedback on. It's common knowledge that the Detroit Lion’s defensive line is in ...Jim Caldwell: Thanks For Resting the Starters
Published on: 28th December, 2009
I can understand why the Indianapolis Colts decided to rest their starters. What I do not understand, however, was why not pull the starters with a bigger lead. Not to take anything away from the Jets, but this was a mismatch. There is no way I pull Peyton Manning out with ...Bryant Johnson: Why The Lions Should Release Him
Published on: 26th December, 2009
I'm going to keep this post short for the simple fact that sometimes words just get in the way. I read a stat here that completely blew my mind. Bryant Johnson has gone 9 straight games with 2 or fewer catches. How does that happen? How does the ...Detroit Lions: You Can Win For Losing. Really.

It's pretty obvious by now isn't it? The Detroit Lions do not know how to win. We don't need to decipher the Da Vinci Code or the Kryptos structure at the CIA to figure that out. The team seems hell-bent on reminding us of the fact. But here's the problem fans have ...Detroit Lions: Right Players, Wrong Timing
Published on: 7th November, 2009
Oh, what it's like to be a Lions fan. What a maddening thing when you live in a world of high draft picks and low scores. When management consistently misses on can't-miss prospects and possible late-round gems turn out to be polished coal. One gambling man would figure with just the numbers ...Detroit Lions Fans: Be Upset, Just Be Smart About It

OK, so you're upset. Your team just lost to the winless Rams, which is inexcusable. I get it. I really do. What I do not get, however, is the reason Matthew Stafford is the point of that criticism. He went 14-of-33 for 168 yards with one pick. Those are not good numbers, ...Detroit Lions: First Quarter Grades

Four games down, 12 games to go.A quarter of the way through the season and what have we learned?Hmmm, Matthew Stafford is better than we (read: I) first believed. He has gotten more efficient with each game, with his passer rating increasing with each game. Also, Stafford has managed to ...Detroit Lions: Let The Youth Movement Begin!

Lets see if I this analogy works. Ever heard of the guy who meets this great girl? This girl is loving, but guarded. She has this huge wall built from past relationships. Although, the guy knows she loves him and wants to be there for him, he also knows she is scared ...Hey, Detroit Lions, I Have One Simple Question: WTF?
Published on: 21st September, 2009
WTF? All the other questions have been asked. Why did we draft Stafford? Why isn't Culpepper starting (my personal favorite)? A tight end at pick 20? In the first round? Really? All of those have been answered in some form or fashion; New face of franchise, the future is now, yes, uh huh, you ...Featured Sponsors
