Daunte Culpepper has been taking snaps with the 1st offense. He’s the most offensive thing about that group. He needs to stay on the bench and they need to give Drew Stanton another shot.
The Lions real quarterback, Matthew Stafford, had successful knee surgery. The surgery was performed by famed sports orthopedic surgeon Dr. James Andrews. [...]
Short and sweet today. The Lions lost, again, yesterday to the San Francisco 49ers 20-6. The first drive of the game for the Lions looked pretty good until they got into the redzone and couldn’t get the TD. They settled for a Jason Hanson field goal to go up 3-0. It all went down hill [...]
Short and sweet this weekend as I’m writing this on Thursday and heading back up north for Christmas with the family. I won’t have access to a computer again until Sunday evening or Monday afternoon.
The Detroit Lions travel to California Sunday to take on the San Francisco 49ers. The 49ers playoff hopes were dashed last [...]
MERRY CHRISTMAS
I sincerely hope everyone has a very safe and Merry Christmas.
Lions quarterback Drew Stanton (here’s a link to his website) will get the start against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. Drew was drafted in the second round (43rd overall) in 2007 by he who shall not be named’s regime. Stanton played in 3 games in 2008 and came in last week after the [...]
The Lions lost a great game (2nd half) against Arizona Sunday 31-24. Daunte Culpepper started the game and, as expected, looked like crap. He was pulled in favor of Drew Stanton in the second half. Finally. Stanton fared a bit better and the team definitely responded to the change at the helm. neither QB [...]
The Arizona Cardinals come to town today to take on the Detroit Lions. The Cards can clinch the NFC West with a victory over the Lions. They lost last week on Monday night, mostly through their own mistakes, and should be looking for an easy win today in Motown.
QB Matthew Stafford will be out today [...]
The Lions released veteran fullback Terrelle Smith on Wednesday and claimed guard Roy Schuening off the waiver wire. Schuening was a 5th round pick by the St. Louis Rams in 2008 and only played in one game as a rookie and spent most of the ‘09 season on Oakland’s practice squad. [...]
Rev Spielman over at The Church of Schwartz continues his Q&A with several of the internet’s top Lions bloggers. It is, as usual, a good read. Go check it out. Here’s the questions for this week and my responses.
1. With the season nearing its conclusion, evaluate each Lions draft pick from 2009 and their [...]
The Detroit Lions confirmed today that running back Kevin Smith is out for the year with a torn ligament in his left knee. That’s too bad. The kid was coming into his own in recent weeks and is turning into a heck of a player. I just hope that when all is said and done, [...]
Here’s a link to the highlights of coach Jim Schwartz press conference after the beat-down from the Ravens on Sunday. Boy does he look pissed. I’d wager that there will be some changes come Tuesday, possible a few cuts. I hope Culpepper is the first one to go.
Wow. I’m not sure where to begin here. The Lions looked like a pee-wee team playing out there today. It was a totally embarrassing game that made me wish the season was already over and we could start looking to the future. I don’t think I can handle 3 more weeks of this crap.
The first [...]
The Lions head to Baltimore to take on the Ravens this week. Starting QB Matthew Stafford will sit out and back-up Daunte Culpepper will get the nod. I’m not too excited about Culpepper starting. He has NEVER won a game as the Lions quarterback and he will most likely be gone at the end of [...]

*Note: Half the guys turned in their responses before Williams failed his physical.*

Daunte Culpepper will get the start Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens.
“We want to avoid the situation where it becomes something chronic. Structurally, everything is still on course there, (but) it’s a tremendous amount of pain, it’s sore and we just wanted to avoid a continuing cycle of come back, get hit, come back, get hit. [...]
The Lions lost Sunday to the Cincinnati Bengals, 23-13. The first quarter of the game went well for Detroit. you had to think they had a chance. The remainder of the game, though the score doesn’t show it, was all Cinci. Detroit’s secondary played reasonably well for a change, having their best game of the [...]
The 2-9 Detroit Lions travel down I-75 today to face off against the 8-3 Cincinnati Bengals. This game could go either way, a complete slaughter by the Bengals or or a close squeaker, with both teams having a shot at winning. Either way, it should be an entertaining game. I’ll actually get to watch it [...]
The Lions season is over. It was over, really, before it started. Almost everyone was drinking the Kool-aid and hoping for a 5-6 win season. It looked possible on paper but with the sieve that is the secondary, the revolving door that is left tackle and the plethora of injuries to key positions, hell, most [...]
