#25. The 2008 Detroit Lions

Record: 0

  • Zero as in zero wins, as in 0-16.

Achievements: 1

  • Became the first team in NFL history to go 0-16 for the year
  • Earned the #1 pick in the 2009 NFL Draft (all you fans of the tank philosophy must have loved 2008)

Star Power: 1.5

Entertainment Value: 2

There wasn’t much reason to watch this team, beyond the curiosity factor once 0-16 was starting to look like a legitimate possibility (so around Week 5).

Total Score: 4.5 out of 40
