The Detroit Lions coach Rod Marinelli was fired today by the Detroit Lions.  The Lions made the move after they finished 0-16 this season.
Marinelli’s record with the Lions was a disappointing 10-38 over 3 season with the Lions.  This is not a shock to any Lions fan.  Marinelli changed the culture in the Lions locker [...]

It is hard to be a Lions fan these days!  The Lions fans would never have thought the last win they would see to this point would be in 2007.  For Lions fans this is a bitter reality.  The problem is it can still get worse.

The Lions (0-14) were in the entire game but fell short against the (10-4) Indianapolis Colts.   This was the best showing from the Lions in many areas on both sides of the ball.  The best part of the game for Lions fans is that the Lions showed there possible future.
Dan Orlovsky was consistent.  He threw the [...]

This Lions have terminated the contract of corner-back Brian Kelly (3 years, $8.5 million).
Brian Kelly has not played well this year.  The Lions secondary is the worst in the NFL.  It is hard to believe he will be the only casualty.
Kelly dressed on Sunday but did not play against the Vikings.  You know you are [...]

“I don’t take one thing back,” Dom Raiola stated in repsonse to a question about him being sorry after he flipped an obscene gesture at heckling Lions fans.
“I’m just tired of hearing it coming at just me,” Raiola said. “It’s coming at me because I’ve been here for years. I’ve been through the losing. Me, [...]

Today’s loss to the Minnesota is a franchise record for the worst start in the history of the team.    The previous benchmark was 0-12 in 2001.   That streak was broken by a victory against the Minnesota Vikings.  Unfortunatley today history did not repeat itself.

The Detroit Lions looked good at times but the play calling in this one was horrible.  If Rod Marinelli and the entire staff are not fired at the end of this season, I will be floored.  The Lions lost to the Vikings 20-16
Daunte Culpepper looked more comfortable in the offense today.  He had no glaring [...]

Matt Cassel is a free agent at the end of this season.  He has played well this season for the New England Patriots but will be put back to a back-up if he were to stay with the Pats passed this season.  Tom Brady will be healed for the 2009 season and ready to re-assume [...]

Kevin and Pat Williams returned to practise today with the Vikings.  This seems to indicate that the Williams wall will be able to take the field against the winless Vikings on Sunday.  If the Williams Wall was unable to play on Sunday this would make the Lions chance of winning a lot better.
Kevin and Pat [...]
