As Lions fans, we know all about two different tales in a season. That’s what happened last season when the Lions started 1-6 and found a way to finish 9-8 on the year. Despite missing the playoffs, the expectations were at an all-time high for the Lions. Living up to the hype during the first
The Detroit Lions are slumping, but it wasn’t always like this. Some are quick to call the Lions frauds, but over the first six weeks of the season, the Lions were anything but. They had amassed a 5-1 record and were coming off four straight wins of 14 points or more. Bad teams don’t do…
