For as much as I want to stick up for Detroit, not even Strong Armed Arn Anderson would save the Lions at this juncture. The sadness is Urban Decay is leaving his Sexual Behavior and the Collar with the Collar with the Jacksonville Jaguars, but, the Lions do not have a put together Football Club.
The twister nationally is the Lions Collar was when the Economy hit the Tank and what was supposed to be an Honorable, Family Friendly, Yes Sir, No Sir Diamond Anniversary. The Lions Playoff Hex is not 30 Yet, and it is not quite a Team Record.
But, I would feel that most of the Family Friendliness has been replaced with a Generation X Styled Karma Trip. The worst thing from 13 Years Ago, which still is the Detroit Sports Debate, is should they have gone Defense instead for the Top Pick?
That has worsened the Playoff Hex in Games and not necessarily in years. And, the next year, in 2010, there was no telling how the Gateway City would have handled Suh and there would have been no way Sam Bradford would have handled Detroit.
In 2022, there is no real Defense without having to Scream "Hard Case" and having to yell "Bust" louder than many other Establishment Football Footprints have said before or since. I am still not flattered that Ford Field has not produced a Lions Playoff Game in Wayne County, and the Collar Fight for the Top Pick, Winless Streaks and All, would leave a Mark on both Jacksonville and Detroit for years to come.
