Anyone who has followed the Lions for more than 5 or 6 years, (25+ myself), knows that is where they belong. I bought into the hype last year because I thought that was going to be a good team. Guess what, they aren't that good. They're okay, but they're still miles away from being a playoff winning team. If they improve by 1 win, that will be a huge step for them after last years giant collapse.
As for some people saying that they are better than Cleveland or the Jets or the Titans!!!???? I have to laugh out loud at my computer at lunch, with people looking at me like a whack-job! That is ludicrous. The Bucs are worse? Didn't they make the playoffs? Probably the only team they have ranked higher than them that isn't, is Denver and that's because they owned them last year.
Look, this is a franchise that had arguably one of the best running backs to ever play the game, and they couldn't build it correctly around him. Then forced him to retire about 3 years too soon because he got burnt out on football. This is a joke of a franchise, and will be until they have a real owner.
Now lets have all the Lion purists write and tell me what I said wrong, and how everything is different this year.
