Detroit Lions’ Daniel Bullocks Avoids Getting Cut by Hitting IR
Published on: 21st August, 2009
Daniel Bullocks entered the 2009 NFL season with a target on his back, and everybody has been shooting. Guys like Kalvin Pearson and Louis Delmas were aiming for his job. And guys like me have been gunning for him to get cut in training camp. It’s not that I wanted it to happen. ...Aaron Brown’s Legs Are Turning Heads, But Let’s Not Hand Him a Starting Spot Yet

I hate to be the one to always have to do this. No, I’m not going to lecture everyone about how the Lions’ comeback 27-26 victory means nothing. We know that after last season’s 4-0 preseason and 0-16 regular season. I’m here to temper the mass hype over Aaron Brown. On Saturday, Brown ...Detroit Lions’ Strong Defense in Camp Not Necessarily Good News
Published on: 5th August, 2009
Training camp reports have a bit of a bipolar nature to them. One day, the team looks great. The next, they’re weak. The defense is dominant. The offense is dominant. Somebody is having a weak showing and might get cut. The next day, they set the place on fire with big plays ...Detroit Lions’ Defense Fueling Team Drive with Personal Drives

Second-worst scoring defense of all time. The 2008 Lions earned that distinction last year, and presumably will keep it until a Mike Martz-led expansion team in San Antonio rears its head. The Lions allowed 517 points (16 points off the all-time record) and 16 wins to be tallied against them last year, ...The Detroit Lions’ All Watch-Your-Back-in-Training-Camp Team
Published on: 27th July, 2009
Training camp has begun. The Buffalo Bills, the first team to begin the weeks-long tradition of pre-preseason OTAs this season, have reported to camp. The Detroit Lions report on Friday. In other words, we’re only a few weeks away from the first round of cuts, and on a winless team under completely ...Detroit Lions’ Offense Fueling Team Drive with Personal Drives

Selfishness is a powerful force. It can turn record-setting performances into pedestrian numbers. It can land healthy Pro Bowlers on injured reserve with “undisclosed conditions.” It can turn Super Bowl favorites into Week 17 chokers who miss the playoffs (not mentioning any Texas-based names in the Fort Worth area). It can give a six-time ...Louis Delmas to Snap Detroit Lions’ Decade of Second-Round Busts?
Published on: 11th July, 2009
When I combine the terms “Detroit Lions” and “draft,” a few things might pop into your head. The first is likely “wide receiver.” The second, “first-round bust.” Then “Harrington,” “Mike Williams,” “Charles Rogers,” etc. The list goes on, tallying far more negatives than positives. But how far down the list are the ...William Clay Ford Speaks Out: Sincerity, Subterfuge, or Stupidity?
Published on: 27th June, 2009
It’s not often Detroit Lions fans are treated to a William Clay Ford press conference. When the Lions owner, generally reclusive in nature, does step into the limelight, no matter how briefly, it’s difficult to determine what to take from it. He says the right things for the most part. He wants to ...Detroit Lions Fans, It’s Time To Move on from Matt Millen
Published on: 19th June, 2009
I can’t believe I’m saying this. Neither can you, and I don’t guess your bitterness will be swayed so easily, but this is something that needs to be said. Matt Millen, for all his shortcomings, for all the damage he did to the Detroit Lions franchise, for all of his stubborn press ...Featured Sponsors
