0 - 16 Lions . . . what now ?

[STDiva]

pshh....Marty's better off sitting at home and Cowher is better off taking the Browns Job

i think Tebow will stay.....BUT id like to see the Lions take a chance, draft Pat White, and run that wildcat with some pass wrinkles....that might be fun with White/Smith/Johnson running that show

You should be the GM.

With a decent O-Line and a steady qb, Johnson would be the best wr in the nfl. Kevin Smith is good enough to keep the defences honest and stop double teaming Johnson, but the o line needs to help.

They need to build up that line, then get a qb. They could draft Peyton Montana and he still wouldnt do anything.

I''m sure the Cowgirls draft picks will help.

You should be the GM.

i was saying what i said strictly as a fan....what would be fun to watch

now for an actual team....i would start o line....then go d-line, linebackers, and DBs

running back, WR, then QB

building from the inside out is the key....as in make sure to build o-line and d-lines first

thats me with my GM hat

they need jesus

They're gonna draft Sam Bradford with the #1 pick in a couple of months. That's whats next. I feel sorry for Sam Bradford. Hope the Lions don't fuck his career up like they did Joey Harringtons.

 

[young_guns]

number 1...draft sam bradford...number 2...draft defensive players

 

[assholebythedoor]

they need to run a proper scale.

To be honest and this is sad to say, but I wish they would move to another city!! unfortunately all the ancient good memories the lions ever managed went out the door today!! IMO they need to start from scratch!! welcome an expansion Detroit .........s a new team with new name!! :eek:

William clay Ford should do the honorable courtesy and sell the team to a owner that cares about winning!! and if WCF. doesn't sell the team for FUCKS SAKE hire a CEO and a GM that know the game of football!! professionals that know how to draft!!

Hire a legitimate stud of a coach! and show DETROIT and the rest of the world that you are in fact humiliated by a 0 - 16 season!!! but I don't think WCF gives a fuck!! so like I said along time ago FUCK THE LIONS AND FUCK WCF!!!

I have the RED WINGS, PISTONS, TIGERS, AND WOLVERINES to cheer for!! :bowdown:

 

[assholebythedoor]

Las Vegas did mention a franchise deal. Maybe they will move there

Don't draft yet another WR with the No. 1 pick would be a start.

Though that idiot what's-his-name GM is gone, so maybe there is hope.

 

[E-Ann-Hilden]

No changes in the top management, in which is a total and utter shame!

The Lions are not going anywhere....

 

[Skyraider22]

What do you mean what now they have been saying that the last five years.

 

[antoniogarcia]

the nfl should move the team to another city, and make a new start

 

[E-Ann-Hilden]

I dont think moving the team is an answer. Especially from one of the top 5 sports cities in the U.S. Until this year all games were sellouts. Detroit supports the Tigers, Red Wings and Pistons very well, even the lousy Lions.

#2 in NHL attendance
#1 in NBA attendance
#8 in MLB attendance

We already have a vacant Pontiac Silverdome, we do not need a vacant Ford Field...

Bring the team under NFL control, bring in new owners, hire 1st rate GM, President and coach... If it was that easy!

 

[E-Ann-Hilden]

If i was a Detroit sport fan, i would start following the Red Wings in the NHL

We do and very well, at least we have the Wings! :thumbsup:

DRAFT ANDRE SMITH!!

seriously....they need alot of o-line help....and drafting Bradford/Stafford will be useless if he doesnt get protected

so....Andre Smith would be the guy here

 

[DukeLaCrosse]

mangini and favre to the lions

With 2 1st rounders, I agree!

1st Pick Andre Smith
2nd pick a DE or DT

As a Dolphins fan, I would first like to thank the Lions for erasing all the bad memories of our last season. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

It is a shame to see any team with such a record, because it makes everyone involved look like terrible players. Like everyone said, Detroit simply needs some new people at the wheel of the franchise. They are practically guarenteed the first draft pick, don't blow it this time; get a bunch of people who know football to pick the player who is going to bring dignity back to your team. Firing the coach was the first step of many, and I hope the Lions' next season will be as successful as the Dolphins was this year.

The Dolphins, Saints and the Falcons are the templates. Everything starts with a QB. The Lions have to find a solid A+ QB. Then address OLine. Then address DL. Then address CBs. Then address RBs. Then address WRs. You can win with nobodies playing RB and WR in today's modern NFL. Can anyone name a WR playing for the Eagles? NO GOOGLING!

The Ravens had an old, mean Defense and no QB last season and they went 3-13 and got rid of Brian the Brain. This season with The Great Flacco---playoffs.

I don't think the Lions are that far away from 8-8 provided they find a solid QB.

Mangenius and Crennel are available. The Lions grab Scott Pioli, who knows everything Bill Master and Commander looks for in a player. Bam. It's the "New" New England Patriots in Detriot!

Kevin Curtis. :nanner:
