Week 12 Preview: Packers Vs. Lions–Can Lions Avoid Being Turkeys again?
Over the last five Thanksgiving games, the Lions have lost by an average of 23 points, which actually makes their putrescent performances, in what should be the Lions organization’s proudest day annually, seem diminished since their performance has been actually WORSE than the 23 point ...

DE/LB Matt Roth Mysteriously Released By the Dolphins, Could He Help the Lions?
The Dolphins ended an ugly dispute with DE/LB Matt Roth , who was set to become a free agent after the season, over his status with the team. Roth, who was coming off of a groin injury, was relegated to the bench and a reduced role with the off-season addition of Jason Taylor. Roth will most ...

Stafford and Johnson Miss Practice, Jerome Bettis on Stafford

Leave it to The Lions, Bad Luck Will Make Thursday’s Game Nearly Unwatchable
Sunday’s win, against a horrible Browns team, was the highest moment in a long time (likely their comeback against the Bears during their 6-2 start three years ago stands as it’s highest in a very long while) for the Lions embattled franchise. The fact that the game was won so ...

The Lions Change Places, Become a Viable Team, For One Game
Sunday’s Lions/Browns game was inarguably a match-up of the NFL’s two worst teams. That being said, for the Lions, after an absolutely bizarre and improbable ending to Sunday’s game, it was a brief opportunity for them to enjoy the kind of excitement and satisfaction that ...

Peterman is the 12th Lions Player on Injured Reserve
Good thing the Lions signed Melvin Fowler earlier in the week, eh? At any rate, with the loss of Peterman, an already beleaguered Lions offensive line becomes even weaker. Peterman has been one of the few dependable Lions offensive linemen, during recent seasons. Daniel Loper likely becomes ...

Week 11: Browns Vs. Lions
As we are all too aware, this Sunday’s “blacked-out” Lions home game constitutes one of the all-time worst match-ups in NFL league history. Each team is historically bad, especially the Lions, who by losing six straight, currently have the most consecutive losses in the ...

Good God, Not Even the Lions, or Their Fans, are This Pathetic
detroitlionsblog.com — You want a sure sign that a franchise is reeling, and is running out of answers internally,... I give you, the LeBrowns .

Make that 11, Manuel Joins Expanding List of IR Additions for the Lions
Over the last couple of days, the Lions added two DB’s to their IR list, Marquand Manuel and the recently-acquired-and-all-too-Lionesque-injured-on-his-first-play-in-uniform, Jack Williams. The Lions now have 11 players on IR, with Stephen Peterman and Ernie Sims also remaining as ...

Stafford Has Struggled Through Injuries, Inexperience, and Inconsistency, Lions Offensive Line Needs Scrutiny, Too
The Lions have been party to a great number of strange ideas, with which they have pursued their interminable rebuilding program, but the criminal negligence of paying a rookie, and burgeoning franchise Qb $70M to stand in the pocket and get brutalized 13+ times in Sunday’s game, is among ...

Week 10 Preview: Lions Vs. Vikings, Or This One Might Sting a Bit
In 1997, the Lions won two games (road and home) against their intradivisional foe, the Vikings. Of course, there is their infamous 0-13 run in 2001, you know, during the Johnnie Morton-era, where the Lions got their first win against the Randy Moss-era Vikings at the Silverdome, who could ...

2009 Mid-Season Grades; Or Losing the Battle In an Attempt to Win the War
The 2009 Lions have struggled their way to a 1-7 start, nine weeks into their season, after finishing 0-16 in 2008, amid an incredibly awful 2-30 run in their last 32 games . I think most prognosticators likely had them predicted to be 2-6 at this point, and even the most optimistic likely ...

Out Goes CB Jason David, in Comes CB Jack Williams

Stafford’s Five Picks Undo the Lions Quick Start in Road Loss
Suggesting that Matthew Stafford’s brief career has been without bumps in the road would be sheer denial. That being said, as awful as Stafford looked in the second half of this Sunday’s loss, making sweeping judgments based on the performance of a rookie, who missed two and a half ...
