Detroit Lions




Now the Detroit Lions gets there own post cause they are that special for right now. Yesterday the Lions won the first preseason game against the Atlanta Falcons, which really doesn't matter, you gotta regular season games not preseason games. So far they are reminding me of last season in which they won all of there preseason games but lost the most important ones; the regular season. Right now they're on a 0-17 run since the 2007-2008 season.



I'm really hoping that this season the Lions actually win a game or two. They have improved their roster with drafting Matthew Stafford with the first overall pick in the draft in April. Also of course they have quarterback Daunte Culpepper, and wide receiver Clavin Johnson; just naming people that I know and we all know. And hopefully with these players and the others, they can finally end their losing streak.














So with two good quarterbacks equals two good quarterbacks fighting for starting position on the team. And can I say that I don't care how long Daunte has been in the league, the position is wide open for any one of them. But stats will show who should win and also the chemistry with the whole team is a huge factor. You don't want a player who the team doesn't trust to lead it, you need a guy that the team can trust to win games. But, back to stats on these to QBs, we will mae it fair and just compare it to the preseason game they played so far. Matthew had 7 completions out of 14 attempts for 114 yards, 1 touchdown and 1 interception. While Daunte had 5 completions out of 6 attempts for 41 yards, 0 touchdown and 0 interceptions. But that is only the first preseason game, don't know what goes on during practice. So, I guess it all depends on the coaches decision.
