Week 4 Preview: The Lions vs. The Rams
As the Lions stumble into week four, they face a tough opponent in the new, “more balanced” St. Louis Rams team coached by Scott Linehan. The Rams are attempting to run the ball more this season and they also have shored up what has traditonally been a porous defense. The whole “return of Mike Martz” […]

Lions Cut Corey Bradford
Corey Bradford, a rather high profile free agent acquisition for the Lions in the off-season, is gone. The team cut Bradford earlier today. It’s kind of amazing to see him go, given the fact that the team signed him to a four-year contract in March. He received a rather hefty signing bonus, if I recall, […]

Are The Lions In Dream Land?
Right now, if you were to speak to Detroit Lions players, you would never believe that they are 0-3. They are extremely confident and they firmly believe that they are on the brink of busting out. It’s not just Roy Williams and his insane comments about how close they were to beating the Bears (they […]

Week 3 Recap: Packers Beat Lions 31-24
I hate to jump off the bandwagon so early, but the Lions sure don’t look like a playoff team. After watching the Packers roll up and down the field against the Honolulu Blue, I have to admit it - the Lions don’t even look like a good team. Of course, Favre is a legend and […]

Should Fans Boycott The Lions?
I visited with my cousins over the weekend. They were born and raised in Detroit and have been lifelong Lions fans. Sick and tired of losing seasons, poor draft choices, idiotic management and overpriced concessions, they’ve had enough. They are advocating that fans boycott the team until the team is sold to another owner. While […]

Week 2 Recap: Bears Crush Lions 34-7
Ouch. Today’s game certainly put things in perspective. The Bears are a team on a roll and the Lions… Well, they’ve got a lot of work to do.
The Bears rolled over Detroit today, beating the Honolulu Blue by the score of 34-7. The Bears took the lead early in the game and never looked back. […]

Week 2 Preview: Lions vs. Bears
The Detroit Lions are one of the league’s most enigmatic teams this year. No one knows for sure if they are truly improving under new coach Rod Marinelli, or if they are simply getting a short term boost of “new coach” enthusiasm. As the Lions face off against their division rival this weekend, a true […]

Lions Sign Az Hakim
The Detroit Lions have brought back wide receiver Az Hakim. Hakim, of course, played for the Detroit Lions and spent last year with the New Orleans Saints. Hakim also was a top notch #3 WR for the Rams back in the glory days of Mike Martz and the “Greatest Show On Turf”. Coach Marinelli raved […]
