Lesman 1 Posted January 3, 2011 If Stafford can stay healthy, he should be at the very least a top 10 QB, with top 5 upside. If Stafford and Best can both stay healthy, they could put up a lot of points. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cmh6476 1,045 Posted January 3, 2011 so do I franchise Best with a 6th rounder or Hillis with a 17th rounder? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
edjr 6,692 Posted January 3, 2011 If the Chiefs can win their division, I see no reason the Lions can't win their division next year. This is what all fans need, their sucky teams to win their division at least once every 5 to 10 years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Puddleglum 0 Posted January 3, 2011 this team is getting more love and respect RIGHT NOW from the media than the two playoff teams in the division When was the last time the media won a team a super bowl, or anything for that matter? Remember in the offseason when the 49ers were the up-and-coming team that were going to run away with the NFC West? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Captain Goomy Noomy Roo 50 Posted January 3, 2011 I would settle for one post season game. Let's not get crazy. Props to the home boys finally showing a little spunk this year. Gridiron Heroes The Victory Song of the Detroit Lions (Verse) Hail the colors Blue and Silver let them wave. Sing their song and cheer the Gridiron Heroes brave, Fighting for fame, winning the game, Dashing to victory as they go. (Chorus) Forward down the field, A charging team that will not yield. And when the Blue and Silver wave, Stand and cheer the brave. Rah, Rah, Rah. Go hard, win the game. With honor you will keep your fame. Down the field and gain, A Lion victory! GO LIONS! The Lions fight song, entitled "Gridiron Heroes" dates back to the late 1930's. When the team become a part of Detroit, owner G.A. Richards called for a fight song. Wayne State University director of bands Graham T. Overgard, who was also the Lions director of entertainment, penned the lyrics and music to "Gridiron Heroes-The Victory Song of the Detroit Lions". Still one of the oldest team fight songs in the NFL, Gridiron Heroes is still played after every Lions score. The tradition has been carried over to Ford Field.
