The Resurgence of the Detroit Lions
In the 2008-2009 season when the Detroit Lions went 0-16 for the regular season, all hope was lost. At that time fans had to hide their faces in shame. But then in the next year’s NFL Draft they drafted overall number 1 pick Matthew Stafford, a Quarterback from the University of Georgia. Since being in the league Stafford has had a problem staying healthy but has shown glimpses of greatness. From the moment he had been set for rehab, Stafford went hard at 110 percent. He wanted to be the player he knew he was capable and help the Lions win and go to the playoffs.
