The Detroit Lions go DOWN, baby.
Perfect Season, anyone?
So, which morons among the sport columnist world have been saying that the Lions can't possibly lose all their games this season?

Saints QB Drew Brees needs 402 yards in Week 17 to set a new NFL record for passing yards in a season. The Saints never punted . Saints coach Sean Payton said after the game that despite the team’s record, he has nothing but respect for the Lions’ coaching staff.
