Since the unfortunate Detroit Lions have sunk to 0-12 in the wake of getting destroyed by the Tennessee Titans on Thanksgiving ... also, now that they appear to be ready to turn into the initial 0-16 group in NFL history ... there are ideas that they be remembered for the enormous government bailout, particularly since the possessing Portage family is requesting to be protected with its auto organization.

Unfortunately, it appears to be improbable that Congress will take out its checkbook for the debilitated Motown establishment, so it'll need to agree to help from me. Here is my enormous arrangement for fixing the Lions.

Step No. 1: Allow the offense an opportunity. Try not to mess with it to an extreme. The fresh debut at quarterback, Daunte Culpepper, to me is similarly on par with any conceivable free specialist obtaining, including Matt Cassel, who's fine in the Nationalists' framework yet improbable to copy his prosperity somewhere else 66ez. Cassel likewise would cost considerably a lot of cash ... better to put it in different pieces of the crew. Culpepper likewise is superior to the main two school possibilities ... Matthew Stafford of Georgia and Sam Bradford of Oklahoma. Stafford looks mechanical once in a while and Bradford hasn't been prepared in a supportive of style offense. Both may be great NFL QBs yet could they be perfect? An over the top bet.

I would recruit another hostile facilitator who might call plays for exciting wideout Calvin Johnson multiple times a game ... attempt 15 or 20. Johnson is the significant danger, so use him. I would let Johnson and Culpepper and youthful running back Kevin Smith simply cooperate and permeate ... structure a triumphant bond.

Resolve what is happening with Gosder Cherilus, the current No. 1 draft pick who's been a debacle ... not all bad for the Lions. He's fundamentally a sculpture at right tackle, unfit to move his feet to obstruct pass rushers who've transformed Culpepper into a human penance in the pocket. In the event that Cherilus can't improve at tackle in the minicamps, attempt him at watch. On the off chance that he can't begin there, cut him and continue on.

Furthermore, discussing Cherilus ... why Damien Woody was considered deficient last year at right tackle, however this year he's beginning for the Planes, a vastly improved group, at that equivalent position? How is it that he could be not sufficient for the Lions but rather adequate for the Planes? In the event that the Lions had kept him, they could not have possibly taken Cherilus, and they might have picked a head running back like Felix Jones or Chris Johnson rather than an alright one like Smith.

Try not to draft a hostile left tackle with the No. 1 choice, as is much of the time proposed in the football Web. Assuming occupant Jeff Backus would rate around a 90, suppose, and the novice would rate 100, sure, you've worked in the group however you haven't further developed it that much. Stay with Backus. Give the offense some progression.
