The Lions have a chance to do something no other NFL teams have done before: lose out after starting 6-2.  Mike O'Hara brought up the possibility of the Lions finishing the season on an 8-game winning streak, and after doing some asking around, he found out that it would sadly be a record. Since the NFL went to a 16-game schedule in 1978, no team has started 6-2 and lost its last eight ... [link]

Shows clips from the movies Porkys and Blazing Saddles which included the talented Karra

But his record is just 9-21, and the Lions have missed the playoffs both seasons. But Martz said the Lions won't use J.T. O'Sullivan or Dan Orlovsky. O'Sullivan has appeared in four games, including their 20-17 overtime victory over Minnesota on ...
