Detroit Lions: Ranking the top 7 coaches in franchise history.

Top-Seven coaches, in no particular order: Parker, Wilson, Schmidt, McCafferty (on expectations), Clark (Potsy), Fontes, Clark (Monte).

How did this poll omit George Clark? Glaring omission. I consider Portsmouth as part of the Lions. McCafferty bests all the rest, based on their global futility. Otherwise I hold my nose and include Caldwell.

Barry Sanders Riding Lion Bobblehead.

As someone who previously purchased a Detroit bobblehead from us, we wanted to let you know about the brand new Barry Sanders Riding Lion Bobblehead, which is scheduled to arrive around the end of this month.

Each bobblehead is individually numbered to 2,020 but only 144 bobbleheads were produced in the first batch so pre-order yours today if you want to add this awesome bobblehead to your collection.

Despite all the struggles, seemingly endless, the fine men who wore number 20 makes me proud to be a Lions (1955 - present) fan.
