Lions Week 8. Here’s a shocker we’re 0 & 7
Now it appears we are officially in a rut with the Lions. They seem to be getting better, but always a little too late.
What’s interesting is that on 21 July I asked “Dante Culpepper to the Lions?”. Well guess what people, it looks like it may happen after all.
Culpepper was in Allen Park for a workout with the Lions on Tuesday morning.
He left Detroit without signing a contract, though Culpepper, who is seeking a two- or three-year deal, did enter into negotiations with the Lions, a league source said.
Another washed-up journeyman QB for the Lions it seems. Damn we suck…….

I’m thinking my Bungals and your Lions will both get a garbage win at the end of the season. Thats right! A tie-breaker for the 1st draft pick. With which they will overpay an player they don’t need.

I’m starting to think the NFL sshold creat a new rul that anyone who goes 0-16 gets the top 2 (maybe even 3) picks. Nobody would argue that they don’t need em.

You guys got rid of Millen, we can’t get rid of Mike Brown.
