The Lions added S Stuart Schweigert, who had a promising beginning to his career in Oakland, but has experienced an Archuleta-like fall from grace and become more of a journeymen.
Given that Schweigert is a Michigander (Saginaw), and is desperate for work, maybe the Lions could get lucky and ...

Of late, I have been highly critical of the Lions organization, which is obviously a warranted criticism. That being said, if there is one thing that the Lions have done right throughout the years, at least since 1980, it is selecting kickers.
The mere fact, given all of the tumult and ...

The Lions will very likely be carrying an 0-11 record into their upcoming, nationally-televised, annual Thanksgiving Day game. The Lions are currently “celebrating”, or more aptly, desecrating their 75th season as a NFL franchise.
Amid this desecration, the Lions still cling ...

The Lions go on the road to face the 7-2 Carolina Panthers this week. The Panthers who have struggled mightily to reach their 7-2 record, are a bad match-up, at a bad time, for the Lions.
Panther QB Jake Delhomme threw four interceptions last week in an abysmal game against the Oakland ...

Other than the overabundance of losses each season, nothing exemplifies a Lions season like adding journeymen RB Aveion Cason to the Lions roster, who has only been signed and released 17 times in his Lions tenure.
If there is a criticism that can be directed at Rod Marinelli, among so many, ...

Well…I guess that Daunte Culpepper can’t change the facts…The Lions stink!(I believe the euphemism is, if you put lipstick on a pig, it’s still a pig?)
Culpepper looked like someone who had been away from football for a full year. That doesn’t mean he ...

If you would, as a Lions fan, like to feel some “warm fuzzy’s”, and get genuinely sentimental about the history of Detroit Lions football, look no further, The Detroit News has provided an incredible, interactive package for the 75th anniversary team.
The News also has ...

The Lions are facing their most winnable remaining game Sunday. The Jaguars are actually an accomplished team, in a difficult division, who are clearly underachieving.
If the Jaguars can circle the wagons, and grind out a tough road victory, their season will be put back on track Sunday at ...

The Lions will have egg all over their faces again this Sunday. Their home game against the Jaguars will be “blacked out” in accordance with league rules.
In a game where the Lions plan on celebrating their 75th anniversary as a franchise by wearing their “throwback” ...

The Lions, at least if Rod Marinelli’s Monday press conference and the vagaries surrounding Dan Orlovsky’s current injury status can both serve as indicators, plan on having Daunte Culpepper start Sunday’s home game against the flagging Jacksonville Jaguars.
The Jaguars game ...

The Lions, to their credit, are a much more competitive team entering week 10, with an 0-8 record, than most of us would like to admit. That being said, they are a flawed and incomplete team, and the only thing that has been truthfully accomplished by their numerous near-miss losses is an ...

Amid Rod Marinelli’s current 1-14 stretch as the Lions head coach, the Lions, at least according to numerous reports, have finally decided to add QB Daunte Culpepper (two-year deal) to the mix.
This roster move actually has no bearing on this week’s game, except for the likelihood ...

Amid the carnage and bloodletting that has consumed the current Lions season, lost in the mire, was the fact that the Lions are celebrating their 75th season as a franchise. They are going to wear “throwback” jerseys against Jacksonville, and celebrate these players that day:

After reviewing the recent Lions/Redskins game, and taking a holistic view of Dan Orlovsky’s, aka “The Polish Pop Gun”, body of work as a starting QB, I believe it is safe to assume that Orlovsky will never be more than the competent, turnover-free, game manager that he has ...

Many Lions fans, at least, the most co-dependent ones, may attempt to see the glass half-full when reflecting upon Sunday’s eight point loss, where the Lions “battled” back by reducing the ‘Skins sizable fourth quarter lead to a touchdown and two-point conversion, but ...

In the Lions week 8 game, amid a season of grossly copious embarrassment, the Lions were awarded their largest embarrassment of the season, thus far, a league mandated television black-out, due to poor ticket sales (about 5,000 seats remain).
Many Lions fans enacted a self-imposed black-out ...

Rod Marinelli is clearly in over his head as the team’s head coach. The Lions overall general lack of competitiveness, their inability to efficiently develop young talent, and Marinelli’s unwillingness to make the necessary changes to give the team a better chance to win, all will ...
