With 4 Thanksgiving losses in a row, getting smoked and embarrassed on national television has become the new Detroit tradition. Rod Marinelli has not failed to disappoint in his third season as head coach, he has delivered the worst Thanksgiving Day loss in the history of the franchise that has been playing this game since the 1930’s. [...]

And surely that will happen, especially considering that they are playing one of the best teams in the League. 
That’s a long time to not even take one; I remember the last one, it was against the Brett Favre Packers in 2003 and I had the pleasure of being there when Mooch had that team looking [...]

The Titans of Tennessee will be firing up the eletric knife and going to town on the ever defunct Detroit Lions. 
They are a superior team, they are 10 and 1 and they are going to continue the rich Thanksigiving tradition of some team coming into Detroit and administering the hurt on a national broadcast, done [...]

Bottom of the Bottom, Lowest of the Low
The Lions Sign Henson to a 2 year contract (Why!?!) to shore up the even thinner QB ranks as Drew Stanton keeps getting pounded into the ground and is questionable to play due to a concussion suffered during the trashing the Bucc’s handed down on Sunday. 
Henson hasn’t played [...]

Going up 17 to 0 and ceding 38 barely answered points does not a winner make. What looked like a strong start ended up being 2 lucky plays and a field goal, merely foreplay for the Buccaneer rampage that was to come.

Culpepper is what he used to be but a little worse. A turnover machine [...]

Kerry Collins is doing it. Kurt Warner is doing it. And as if it isn’t all too familiar, Jeff Garcia is doing it. So why not come out of nowhere and be successful? 
I’m tired of flogging the bad talent horse. I’m tired of losing and I’m tired of the Marinelli pressers after yet another loss. [...]

Anybody know the longest streak for consecutive blackouts? We are now officially at 3 in a row. 

Can’t see the game within 75 miles, that includes Metro Detroit, Flint and Lansing.

From Freep.com
“It’s a big loss,” Bucs coach Jon Gruden told Detroit reporters in a conference call. “He’s a tremendous character and an outstanding performer and a leader here and a go-to guy. You lose your feature back, it’s a problem for us.”
The Bucs activated Cadillac Williams from the physically unable to perform list. But he hasn’t played [...]

 
“Who wants to look at a leader who’s a grouch or a pouter? There’s too much of that here anyway, isn’t it? Too much around. So when things are bad, a leader’s supposed to step up and lead from the front, and that’s what I’m going to do.”
Honestly you can’t hate the guy. At the [...]

This could just be wishful thinking… but just imagine the possibilities… 

 
This guy is the real deal. He’s done it, the guys under him (ie, that Falcons Team that whooped on us week 1) are proving themselves in the league and this guy is a guru of guru’s, the Lions are very desirable because they [...]
