Do you think Mike Martz can help this terrible offence in Detroit? I think if Joey(blue skies)Harrington leave

Detroit is pretty much hopeless and a coach won't help much. Steve was suposed to correct this. They'll have to get ride of their stupid owner and get some more talent

hmmmmmmm\n\nI agree with clone1973, my days of the Browns ruining my week ended in the 80s, I am still a fan however I have NO expectations in fact yesterday I had Rudy Johnson on my fantasy team and was happy to see him score ( too bad he didnot get more TDs ).\n\nIf the blind fan base stops pouring hard earned cash out for tickets, maybe the ownership will put a quality product on the field.\n\nI am not ready to run Romeo out of town quite yet, on the other hand if Frye is the QB next year without a quality backup, or even better a Troy Smith on the bench, I see more of the same lame crap.

Panthers lost Foster for the season so it will definitely be tough. The hawks will double-team Steve Smith and try take him outa the game. That will leave Jake to find another target. Someone else on the panthers will definitely have to step up for them to win.

Furrey is clearly a favorite of Mike Martz and Kitna, you should start him as Roy will be double covered and Kitna will be looking to him.  Jenkins is still probable and Droughns is a bust this year at best.

The lions are for sure looking for a coach after firing heir coach. Houston may end up firing Dom Capers after such poor season. New Orleans and Oakland look like they will fire their coaches, Oaklands offense should have does much better and do I need to say much about New Orleans? \n\nThe Ravens coach Brian Billick is on the hot seat because of the bad development of Kyle Boller, who has not done much good as a QB and a real bad season. I think we'll have to wait to see will is fired and the off-season before we'll get a good idea of posable replacements.

Yes it is possible, but not likely, they are not going to pay Harrington that kind of money, when they have invested in two other QBs, if they do not come to a trade agreement with someone, they will just cut him, he has a hefty roster bonus coming to him very soon and the Lions are not going to pay it.

I'm a Devils fan, but Stevie is my favorite hockey player of all time. It will be sad to see him go. But, they all have to some time. He's one of the last true greats that was loyal to his team through thick and thin. So was Barry Sanders for the Lions. I guess there is something about playing in Detroit that keeps people around. Stevie, if you go we'll miss you. But you have done your job. If you feel the need, we'll understand. Cheers!

Well for starters don't listen to that idiot above me  hollisterdude57'. He's been asnwer all the questions like this. And all he talks about is CHuck Norris. \n\nALLEN PARK, Michigan (Ticker) - Coach Rod Marinelli watched Shaun King have some success with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Now he's hoping King can do the same for the Detroit Lions. \n\nKing, who did not play at all last season after spending 2004 as a backup with the Arizona Cardinals, signed a one-year contract with the Lions on Friday. \n\nIn Detroit, King will compete with Dan Orlovsky for the backup job to Joey Harrington. \n\nThe Detroit Lions now head into Phase Three of the rebuilding process. Having solidified the coaching staff and the new aggressive philosophy, they now have to weed through their 53-man roster and look for three types of players: playmakers, role-players and dead weight. \n\nOf course I think it may take a couple of years for anything be to be noticed.

It would be nice. It would also be nice if Rex played more than 5 games. It would be nice to draft some offense instead of all defense when you have the number one defense and a high school offense. It would be nice if Ron "Chico" Rivera doesn't leave us for a real job next year. Yeah it would be nice if we made it to the show. will it ever happen... man hell no! ssst hmmmm.

Bad for The Tigers. I dont know what Dombrowski was thinking.\n\nThat sanchez dude was big prospect in our system, and he'll come back to haunt The Tigers in the future.\n\nI'm just hoping that Sheffield can keep his head in the game.\nHis bat might us help us.

I'm very upset to see thhe great season down the drain. but hopefully this will teach them a lesson for next year. I'm not gonna make excuses here, just facts. Lets see, Edmonton, first off, did one hell of a job. Pronger played like he needed to and Roloson showed up hungry. The Wings went in overconfident I think and Edmonton stunned them for the first 2 and 1/2 games with their great teamwork, goaltending, and lets not forget that tricky neutral ice trap style defense that worked out great. Detroit was not slow at all. In every game since game 2, Detroit controlled the tempo, had way more ice time in the offensive zone, and nearly doubled Edmonton in Shots on goal. The wings did great, they got great scoring chances but just weren't finishing on them. Stevie Y and Lang were in the trenches of every play of their shift. Zetty scored at least one goal every game. Maltby did one hell of a job blocking the passing lanes and forceing turnovers on the power play. Shanny had many of opportunities. It's not that we didn't play well. We had the chances, but just could not convert them into points. Now don't get me wrong on this next part, I like Manny Legace a lot, but every game, he allowed over his goals per game average and in nearly every game he allowed 2 goals within the first 10 shots and one game where he allowed 2 goals within the first 7 shots. Ya can't do that in the playoffs. They couldn't pull him and let ozzy play, cause ozzy was injured. I think Manny is an excellent goaltender, but he just had a really bad playoff run. Possibly due to inexperience. I just hope they don't fire manny for it. He got us the Presidents Trophy and he's been one hell of a backup for the past few seasons. lets not forget when we had Hasek and Kujo, Legace was third string and both Kujo and Hasek were injured and Manny played nearly as many games as Dom and Kujo combined, and we won the presidents trophy that year too. I say keep Manny, he just needs more experience as a starter. Hats off to Edmonton for a series well played. they won fair and square. All except for the third goal that was reviewed in game 6. It was def hit down with a high stick that the refs didn't call and then a very controversial kicking motion. but oh well. Maybe next year for the Wings. (((( KEEP MANNY LEGACE ))))

I agree with neopikachu.  It is WAY too early to give up on Eli as a starting quarterback!  He has shown flashes of brilliance and a lot of his mistakes are correctable.  In my opinion, if the defense holds up, the Giants will be a playoff team for many years to come (and this is coming from a Jets fan).

Dude....tough call!  It seems like the Big Ten is moving more and more to the West Coast Offense, but the foundation of the conference is running the ball.  Perhaps not as much as in the SEC, but the coaches in the Big Ten need to run to win.\n\nThat leaves us with a lot of good players to consider:\n\nMichigan's Michael Hart\nOhio State's Antonio Pittman\nMinnesota's Amir Pinnix\nNorthwestern's Tyrell Sutton\nMichigan State's Javon Ringer\nWisconsin's Hill/Walker/Foster combo\nPenn State's Tony Hunt\nIndiana's Josiah Sears\nIllinois's Pierre Thomas\nIowa's Albert Young\nand \nPurdue's Kory Sheets.\n\nMy money is on Tyrell Sutton as the best back in the Big Ten, but the spread offensive never hurts.  Sutton averaged 5.9 yards per carry last season, and he will get more touches with Basanez gone.  My only concern is that the offense could get too one-dimensional there if CJ Bacher can't keep up the good progress made by Basanez.\n\nWho will lead the conference in rushing yards next year?  That's gonna be Albert Young.  He is built like the ideal RB.  Strong and quick.  He and Drew Tate are the perfect one-two punch on the Hawkeye offense.\n\nThe most valuable back to their team?  Kory Sheets.  Purdue QB Curtis Painter loves to run the option, and that will only add to Sheets's production.\n\nMy Honorable Mentions are extended to Hart, Pittman, Ringer and Pinnix who will all have HUGE seasons next year.\n\nKeep your eyes on Jehuu Caulcrick for MSU, though...he's fantastic, too.\n\nMan, there's just to many good backs to choose....GREAT QUESTION!!!!

I think it all depends on how their QB's step up. They have the offense to excel and with Martz to help, they should score. The Lions need help in the DEF department badly, which is one good thing about Rod Marinelli- hopefully draft D and not worry too much about O, unless it's lineman.\n\nPrediction- 6-10\n2 Wins against the Pack\n2 Wins against the Vike\nWin away at Jets\nWin home against San Fran

They are definetly taking a weak nfc north who else would take it bears what a joke.  the lions offense is going to flourish under martz and the whole new coaching staff will bring some much needed disclipline.

No... only You.    .Scotty Bowman is not even the head coach anymore.  He retired about 4 years ago I think it was.  When they won their LAST Stanley cup!\n\nScotty  Bowman retired when he was at his highest point and is loving every minute of it!  Now if you are asking about the Red Wings HEAD COACH, MIKE BABCOCK is not crying.. he is relaxing!  Stressful and SUCCESSFULL season is over.  Who was ranked number 1 in the whole NHL ALL SEASON long??????  WHO got the presidents trophy???  WHO'S  goalie was Mr. October???   Just because Detroit IS the best does not mean they are perfect!\n\nLOL.. I think you are my newest favorite enemy!!!   lol
