Is Kevin Smith the Lions Most Indispensable Commodity?
As the Lions season rapidly approaches, I have been thinking about their roster and it’s strengths, which are obviously few, and it’s many weaknesses, too.

2009 Detroit Lions: Five Questions
After a horrid 0-16 season made the Lions the laughing-stock of the league, Matt Millen and Rod Marinelli were sent packing, and Jim Schwartz was brought in to right the ship.
