Published on: 5th July, 2010
No O.J. Atogwe. No Eric Berry. No problem. It has been an offseason of renewed optimism in Detroit as the Lions continue to add quality players and look more like a legitimate football team. And yet, for some, the question now is the same as it was before any of these moves ...Sophomore (Honolulu) Blues: Which Detroit Lions Risk a Sophomore Slump?
Published on: 1st July, 2010
It's something we don't really like to talk about in Detroit, because we're often not involved, but it's something that happens every year. No, not the playoffs. I'm talking about sophomore slumps. Those rookies who gave us some eye-popping moments last year now have a season's worth of work on film, and ...Tom Lewand’s DUI: Why Do I Not Know How To Feel About This?

It's strange. Normally I'd have something to say here. And, well, I do. Lots of things, actually. But they all contradict one another, and taken together, they make no sense. Still, here we go anyway. I have, in this very space, started writing (and subsequently stopped, deleted, and re-started) at least four ...Detroit Lions Fighting in Camp Again: Good, Bad, or Irrelevant?
Published on: 26th June, 2010
At least the Detroit Lions are looking to get more physical. After a similar incident two weeks ago which led to the loss of two OTAs, the Lions again had some physical confrontations (which were apparently more UFC-related than football-related) with one another in this week's mini-camp. Head coach Jim Schwartz ...Five Reasons to Believe Louis Delmas’ Eight-Win Prediction for Detroit Lions
Published on: 14th June, 2010
It wouldn’t be a complete offseason without a Detroit Lions player making some kind of outlandish prediction about the coming season. Well fear not, for this year, Louis Delmas has satisfied our requirements . This string started with Jon Kitna boldly predicting 10 wins for the Lions in 2007. After the Lions finished ...Detroit Lions 2010 Schedule Preview: 16 Games, 16 Headlines (Part Three)
Published on: 3rd June, 2010
By the midpoint of the Detroit Lions’ 2010 schedule, we’ll know a lot of things. Chief among them is whether it’s going to be any fun to say “Lions” and “playoffs” in the same breath. Not that the Lions are actually going to the playoffs this year, but it would be ...Detroit Lions’ 2010 Schedule Preview: 16 Games, 16 Headlines (Part 1)
Published on: 20th May, 2010
When is the last time the Detroit Lions had an “easy” schedule? Every year, it seems, we decry the NFL for putting an impassible wall of a schedule before us. This year, that wall takes the form of the AFC East. But then, how much of that is mere perception? Because we ...Detroit Lions’ Offseason Strategy: Draft Offense, Sign Defense
Published on: 29th April, 2010
If you just read that headline, I already know what you’re thinking. “But the Lions just drafted Ndamukong Suh, how can you say they only draft offense?” I’m not saying that, necessarily. However, the Lions have had four first-round picks in the last two drafts. Three of them (Matthew Stafford, Brandon Pettigrew, ...Ndamukong Suh: A Rare Consensus Between Fans and Management
Published on: 26th April, 2010
In April 2009, the Detroit Lions unveiled their redesigned logo and uniforms, a mere couple of weeks before the NFL draft. Lions fans in attendance took this opportunity to chant their wish that Wake Forest linebacker Aaron Curry be taken by the Lions first overall. A couple of weeks later, Matthew Stafford held up a No. 1 ...Detroit Lions’ 2010 Draft: Russell Okung and the Difference a Year Makes
Published on: 13th April, 2010
What a difference the last season has made. If the masses will recall, it was this time last season that I was decrying the likely (and inevitable, as it turned out) selection of Matthew Stafford. I wasn’t the only one; so much of the fanbase agreed, Stafford’s greeting to the NFL ...Featured Sponsors
