Detroit Lions’ First Win Brings Back Sunday Intrigue

Published on: 28th September, 2009

Remember last week? Remember life before Sept. 27, 2009? It was a time fraught with anxiety, despair, hopelessness. It was a time where columnists like myself were predicting that last Sunday’s game against the Washington Redskins was going to be the Detroit Lions’ last chance at a victory until after their Week Seven ...

Detroit’s Jeff Backus is Lion to Fans with His Sad Displays of Hustle

Published on: 25th September, 2009

There are many reasons for Lions fans to dislike Jeff Backus. He seems like a nice enough guy, and I’m sure he is. You never see him get into trouble, and he has quietly been a Detroit Lions starter for almost a decade now. But he gives up a lot of sacks, ...

Detroit Lions Roundtable Week Two: Encouragement and Disappointment

Published on: 24th September, 2009

Welcome to Week Two of the 2009 Detroit Lions Roundtable. This week, in addition to Keith Shelton and myself, we have Lions featured columnist Michael Schottey adding his insight on the team's collapse against the Minnesota Vikings last Sunday. So let's get started with our first question of the week. Q. The Lions ...

Detroit Lions Notch First Winnable Game, First Disappointing Loss

Published on: 22nd September, 2009

Now you can be disappointed. At the end of the first half against the Vikings, the Detroit Lions were in complete control of the football game. They were up 10-7, and the seven didn’t come until after the two-minute warning. Final score: Vikings 27, Lions 13.  That’s something to be angry about. Last ...

Detroit Lions Sell Out Home Opener, Remain Luckiest Franchise in Sports

Published on: 20th September, 2009

Like many of you reading this, I have been a Detroit Lions fan for my entire life. Unlike many of you, I have never bought a ticket to a Lions game. So the Lions avoiding having their home opener blacked-out is not something I had a hand in. But that doesn't mean ...

Detroit Lions Notch a Good Loss in New Orleans

Published on: 14th September, 2009

Everyone just calm down. I’ve heard a whole lot of comparisons to the 2008 Detroit Lions after Sunday’s 45-27 trampling at the hands of  the New Orleans Saints. It’s understandable; they did lose by 18 points, and they are the 2009 Lions. It’s natural to compare them to last year’s version. As I ...

Daunte Culpepper Could Spice Things Up For a Team Looking for a Quality QB

Published on: 8th September, 2009

Daunte Culpepper had better not get too comfortable in his Honolulu blue jersey this season. After head coach Jim Schwartz made the call to start Matthew Stafford at quarterback from day one, Culpepper’s presence is suddenly much less valuable to the Lions...except maybe on the trade market. Of course, what if the ...

Detroit Lions Look to Buffalo To End Safety Battle

Published on: 5th September, 2009

Detroit Lions head coach Jim Schwartz must have seen something he liked Thursday night. One day after playing against him in a Bills uniform, the Lions engineered a trade to bring safety Ko Simpson to Detroit for an undisclosed 2010 draft pick. When not watching the quarterback battle, the Lions have been ...

Detroit Lions’ Winners and Losers in Buffalo

Published on: 4th September, 2009

There was a whole lot to like about the Detroit Lions' 17-6 handling of the Buffalo Bills Thursday night, if you're a Lions fan. Almost 250 yards rushing, mostly improved blocking out of the non-Backus section of the offensive line, no offensive touchdowns given up, and the only preseason win that ...

Drew Stanton Winning the Daunte Culpepper-Matthew Stafford QB Battle in Detroit

Published on: 26th August, 2009

It’s a good thing Drew Stanton is a positive guy. If he wasn’t, he might need therapy, considering the way his career with the Detroit Lions has gone. In two years, Stanton has gone from second-round savior with lots of potential to forgotten third wheel...with lots of potential. So neglected is Stanton that ...
