Bill Ford Jr. puts Lions players on notice
After Jim Schwartz had a mouthful to say about the off field troubles of a few Detroit Lions players, Bill Ford Jr. got in on the act.

Ford Jr. went on WJR in Detroit to express his disappointment...

Fairley’s DUI cause for Lions to open up about team’s misbehavior
For those expecting Detroit Lions coach Jim Schwartz (and the organization as a whole) to be more aggressive when issuing statements about certain team members’ recent misbehavior… don’t hold your breath. It would be logical to assume that Schwartz would be more heavy-handed, delivering harsh commentary when discussing, say, sucker punches in practice, or even [...]

NFC North: Jim Schwartz’s Seat Should Be Heating Up
Schwartz's antics should be raising some eyebrows in the Motor CIty
If you took a poll of 100 NFL fans and asked them which of the four head coaches in the NFC North was on the hottest seat entering the 2012 season, a majority very likely would choose Chicago Bears head coach Lovie Smith who survived a mediocre season which was followed by a major shakeup in the Bears’...

In 2011, the Detroit Lions exceeded the expectations of many, starting the season 5-0 and eventually making the playoffs for the first time in a long time. After the Lions’ first postseason appearance in 12 years, it is now my job to try and guess how this team will fare in 2012.

Detroit Lions draft day manifesto
And with the twenty-third pick in the 2012 NFL draft, the Detroit Lions select….
Well, if you read my last Lions piece, you are probably hoping for South Carolina’s Stephon Gilmore.
