At first he said it was because of injury and being beat up. He was beat up, but he later came out and said if they would have released him or traded him he wouldn't have retired early. Barry is a cool guy. Just got to meet him back in June at Ford Field when I was with my FIL and son renewing season tickets. This is going to be my last year then getting a Wings ticket package By all accounts Barry Sanders was a genuinely nice guy, he had no selfish ambitions. He was just broken by the fact he was working his butt off to help his team and ownership just didn't care. Imo probably the best running back of all time. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the big free agent lineman that came up went bye bye because the cheapo lions wouldn’t pay them. His O line was decimated. Those were his buds. Lomas Brown was one of them. I remember him sitting the second half of one game at the end of the season because he didn’t want the rushing record. He didn’t want the lions to get any recognition. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My kid was talking so much shit before the game about how great they were going to be and Super Bowl run in '19-'20. Like Jim Schwartz and Marinelli , Patricia is NOT a head coach. Superbowl? Your kid doesn't know shit about football. I haven't seen one analyst not have them finish last in their division. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lomas is a great guy and was good for the community. Kevin Glover, the center was the other one I was thinking of. Signed with Seattle because the lions wouldn’t pay him.

Snake Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 New England (10-5) has won the division in 16 of 18 seasons since Tom Brady became its starting quarterback in 2001, per NFL Research. Since NFL division realignment in 2002, the Patriots have won the AFC East 15 times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2017 Eagles were predicted to finish 3rd in the NFC East prior to the start of the season , after finishing last they year before. No one expected them to make the playoffs, then make it to much less win that Super Bowl. Especially after Wentz tore his ACL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially after Wentz tore his ACL True on the Eagles but finishing 7-9 (even if last) was a sign they weren't far off. For me its not the Lion's being that bad they just play in a tough division with no slouches as well as having to play the Cowboys, Cheif's, Eagles outside their division.
