Lions Vs. Redskins - Time To Pull The Trigger
Five words describe what our Detroit Lions must do this week. "Time to pull the trigger."
Our offense has proven they're capable of scoring points this year.
They are able to move the ball with both the run and the pass. For
some reason they haven't taken advantages...
No More Tears - Lions Vikings Pregame 9-20-09 Game
Our Detroit Lions play the Minnesota Vikings this week 9-20-09 at Ford Field.
Things look good for our Detroit Lions this week. The Minnesota Brett Faverz don't stand a chance. Or is that Farzverz?
Hey our quarterback can spell his name the way it's supposed to sound,
that...
Goodell Makes Bogus Concessions On Blackouts
I still can't believe the tone Goodell is taking when he talks about making concessions for the fans. I was just reading this NBC sports article about some new blackout concessions the NFL is making for the fans.
All blacked out games will be available in the local markets on...
Roger Goodwill?
I was listening to an interview last week on the radio with Roger Goodell, the commissioner of the NFL. They were talking about blackouts, the current economic situation in our country and some financial concessions the owners have made to the fans this year.You'd of thought the...
New Look, New Faces, Same problem.
Nearly everything has changed for the Detroit Lions, since the final seconds counted off of the clock in late December at Lambeau Field. While 0-16 will forever be associated with the franchise, the uniforms and most of the players correlated with making that nightmare a reality are...
NFL: End Blackouts Until Economy Improves
I write this as a Detroit Lions fan and an NFL fan.
We all know NFL owners are not strapped
for cash. If you own a NFL team, chances are you aren't in the process
of using foodstamps and getting your house foreclosed.
NFL teams will block broadcast of a game locally if a game...
Detroit Lions Camp Pep Rally Articles
Every year during training camp our Detroit Lions release stories on their website about our coaches or players. These articles usually talk along the lines of "This player really knows what he'll do to excel this year." From a coach it might say "Defensive coordinator...
Lions Sign Billy Cundiff?
Billy Cundiff was just signed by the
Detroit Lions. I was hoping for Swayze Waters, but he injured a
hamstring in practice and well Jason Hanson is down.
But Billy Cundiff? Why Billy Cundiff? It kind of reminds me of some
obscure classic sitcom that gets played in prime time on a...
The Curse of Eddie Drummond
We all saw it Saturday. Cleveland's Josh Cribbs took the opening kickoff, juked out three guys and ended in Detroit end zone. Only to have it called back on a holding penalty. Not to be deterred, the next time Cribbs touched the ball he found the end zone again. This time it was...
Crazy - Confident Or Kool-Aid Drinkin?
In 2007 our Detroit Lions pulled off a 7-9 record. That was a huge leap from previous years. Then in the preseason of 2008 our offense and defense clicked great and our Detroit Lions went 4-0 in the preseason! A previous year we're one game shy of hitting .500, then a preseason...
Equilibrium Is In The Leg
Since 1992, our Detroit Lions have gone through many things. We've seen Barry Sanders drive defenses crazy. As fans we've seen coaches like Fontes, Mariucci and Marinelli come and go. Matt Millen tormented us for nearly a decade. This organization has given us fans very...
Is Matt Stafford ready?
The Matthew Stafford Era started off like it should have. He stepped onto the field to a standing ovation, read the defense and used his freakishly strong arm to find Keary Colbert standing wide open in a hole in the zone defense. Also appropriate was the fact that ball bounced squarely...
Is Rod Marinelli a Great Coach? - YES and NO!!
Yes, after studying this issue for far too long and after spending way too much time on it, I have concluded that Rod Marinelli is a terrific football coach. HOWEVER, let me clarify:
Ol' Rod is a terrific football man who has worked well in the trenches with his "Men"...
Detroit Lions - Can They Win on Thanksgiving 2008?
As an ardent and fervent fan and supporter of the Detroit Lions (I haven't missed a game in-person, on the radio, or on TV in over 40 years!) I am often the only person in the room who believes that the Lions will win every single game. Of course, I've often been...
Lions Get Robbed
The Lions lost their fifth straight game, falling to the Vikings 12-10 on a chip shot field goal with nine seconds left.
Lions Preaseason Update
Well Lions fans, after two games of the preseason, after two preseason victories, it's time to take a look at where the Lions stand with the regular season quickly approaching.
Lions "Believe in Now", But Questions Remain
To parrot head coach Rod Marinelli, everything is a process. The process of the off-season is over and training camp opens today at Allen Park. Matt Millen and the franchise have pushed a credo of "Believe in Now", which is what Lion fans have been doing since their last...
Chris Simms? Lions Should Take a Chance
Image details: Tampa Bay Buccaneers Mini Camp served by picapp.com
You can already hear the noise. Another Tampa Bay player? Aren't there any other teams in the NFL to deal with or former players of other clubs?
The Lion quarterback situation is hardly ready for much beyond...
