The Detroit Lions have received plenty of criticism - and rightfully so - over the years for their lack of success but rarely if ever have they been lambasted as harshly as in Deadspin's "Why Your Team Sucks 2017" series.
Writer Drew Magary blasted the Lions for a history that includes no Super Bowl appearances; one playoff victory since their last championship in 1957; blowing a two-game lead in the NFC North with three games to play last season, having three touchdowns called back on one game a year ago; and Jim Caldwell being the most successful Lions coach in modern NFL history.
