Hey Detroit Lions: You Really Stink!
Published on: 2nd November, 2009
You know, there was a time when I kept trying to give the Detroit Lions credit for finally heading in the right direction. I could take the 26-0 beat down the Packers gave them two weeks ago. I was elated they finally won since November of 2007. I was even a little choked up ...Detroit Lions Need To Use Brandon Pettigrew A Whole Lot More
Published on: 16th October, 2009
It looks like neither Matthew Stafford nor Calvin Johnson are going to play this weekend. Dante Culpepper took all of the first team snaps in practice yesterday and Calvin Johnson hardly practiced at all this week. I think it's high time that Brandon Pettigrew gets more involved in the offense. He's made ...Detroit Lions Fans Need To Be Patient
Published on: 7th October, 2009
I know this isn't going to be easy. But we are talking about the Detroit Lions, right? This team is going through some serious growing pains. On top of that, the Lions have had to deal with decades of mismanagement, most notably from 2000 to 2008. Matt Millen's deconstruction of the ...Beer Thinker’s Rant: The Detroit Lions Did Beat an NFL Team
Published on: 29th September, 2009
I have just about had it with some of the comments being made about the Lions first victory since 2007. The last time I looked, the Washington Redskins were a member of the National Football League, right? The Lions finally put a good, not great, game together minimized their mistakes, ran the ball very well, ...Detroit Lions’ Home Opener Not Sold Out: Can You Blame the Fans?
Published on: 16th September, 2009
In the "Extra Points" section of the Detroit Free Press, I came across this information: The Lions aren't saying exactly how many, but there are seats available for Sunday's game. If the game isn't sold out by 1 p.m. Thursday, it will be the first local TV blackout of the season. In an ...Lions Football: Stafford To Start—Prelude To Disaster Or a Stroke Of Genius?
Published on: 8th September, 2009
What the heck happened in Lionland? I go away for one long weekend with friends, to get away from phones, email, and any computer, only to come back and see that Matt Stafford has been named the starter for the Detroit Lions. I am, among many Lions supporters, a proponent to have Stafford ...Jim Schwartz: Finally, a Detroit Lions Head Coach Speaks the Truth!
Published on: 3rd September, 2009
Jim Schwartz has come out and done something that previous head coaches in the Lions recent past haven't: he told the Lions fans the truth. When asked at a luncheon held Wednesday at the Detroit Economic Club on what he could say to give the fans hope, he stated: "Can't say ...Will This Be a Year of Redemption for Matt Hasselbeck?
Published on: 2nd September, 2009
Last year had to drive Matt Hasselbeck to drink...a lot. From 2003 to 2007, Hasselbeck had been the quarterback who took the Seattle Seahawks to the playoffs five straight years and won the NFC West Division four years in a row. In 2005, Hasselbeck started all 16 games, threw for 3,459 yards, ...An Open Letter to Brandon Marshall
Published on: 30th August, 2009
Dear Mr. Marshall, On behalf of the many fans outside (and maybe inside) the Denver area, I would like to ask you to quit behaving like an ass. Case in point: Prior to your suspension for insubordination, there were three classless acts that sent a loud message to your teammates and the ...Detroit Lions’ Offensive Line: A Pleasant Surprise?
Published on: 28th August, 2009
I was perusing through some news articles on the Detroit Lions and came across Tom Kolwalski's article. His first paragraph gives most Lions fans the hope we've been looking for over the past decade: An offensive line that actually works! Last season, the Lions attempted to incorporate a zone blocking system that ...Featured Sponsors
