The Detroit Lions season is now officially on life support. After starting the campaign with a 2-0-1 record they dropped four of their last five games and are watching their playoff hopes disappear.
The truth is that stranger things have happened then the Lions possibly making a run to get back in the playoff picture, but if we’re being honest with ourselves, what gives us any hope that such a run could occur?
For anyone paying attention, the Lions offense has improved over last seasons dismal performance. Under new offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell, Matthew Stafford has found new life and bounced back from one of the poorest seasons of his career.
