Detroit Lions
The Detroit lions have done better in their new season in the NFL, now that they don't have Barry sanders in their team. Without the man that holds the 2nd highest rushing record in the league, the team of Detroit that has always started their season bad, has started with a 2-0 which hasn't happened in a long time, which is outstanding for the team rating.

This for me is way of the charts, because who would of thought that The "Lions" would do so well without the man Barry Sanders. I as convinced that the team would be turned into bird food in their first game against Seattle Seahocks, when the Lions totally changed that and made them Lion food. Maybe I taught that this was just a lucky start for them, but on their 2nd game against The Green Bay Packers, I realized that the team was on fire and I was very happy because the Lions is my favorite team, don't ask me why? But it just is. I think the team players had realized "finally" that they cannot let just one man do the job, that it's a team sport, and they are putting themselves to the 110%. Their defense is totally better when before that was what hurt them most, because while Barry got the team lots of yardage and scored touchdowns, the other team got them back plus twice the damage they made. But now the defense is focused and ready to go. People tell me I'm crazy because that's the team I like but I just take risks like buying stocks "u go up and down".

Hopefully this year the lions will get as far as two years ago, to the quarterfinals
And go beyond that. Another miracle that I wish is that now that the defense is good The man himself, Barry Sanders, decides to return to the game and play for the Lions one more season. This will make the team unstoppable, this is been called a big upset for everyone, but hell I don't care for me is a big SMILING FACE

    When the Newark Panthers were in the locker room Luke Williams gave a speech saying “that we came here to defy all odds to show that we are worthy to win the super bowl and that we are no ordinary team but we are an extraordinary team that has the potential to win it all people will remember this year because of our comeback to win it all, starts now!” The whole entire team went insane and it didn’t even feel like they were losing.…

    There is no doubt about it, both Theo Riddick and Ameer Abdullah will be a force for any defense to contend with they go up against this year. That being said, the Lions have yet to fill the role that was left open by Joique Bell. While Riddick is a target Matthew Stafford will look for coming out of the backfield all season long, he has yet to prove he can be counted on as a productive rusher.…

    Bengals

    When you think of the Cincinnati Bengals you probably think of all the arrests, busts, and bad managing that have taken place in the 90's. I'm telling you the Bengals are on the rise and have changed the ways of their troubled past back to the winning ways of the 80’s. The 1990's and early 2000's were compiled with poor drafts and miss judgment of character in the players they chose, but the past few years the Bengals have proven draft after draft they are stepping up their drafting game. The Bengals faced heavy criticism for filling the locker room with troubled young players. The Bengals were the centerpiece for jokes about players getting arrested and in trouble. For example Chris Henry the wide receiver that they drafted in the 3rd round, knowing that he had a troubled past that even led up to his college days at West Virginia. They unfortunately carried over to the NFL and he got into many bad situations with drug abuse and other situations. Henry did begin to finally turn his life around but sadly his life was cut short in an accident when he fell out of the bed of a moving truck. Henry was only 26. Since then the Bengals have really done a good job in the draft getting good players that have a clean background. Although the Bengals still have taken chances on players that are questionable Marvin Lewis has taken them under his wing and has mentored them and had really helped them turn their lives around, in example Adam Jones and Vontez Burfict. In doing so they spend very low round draft picks on them. Burfict is a perfect example of this. The Start of this kid’s senior season he was a lock for the first round. Burfict did not take the game seriously though. In essence he self­destructed. Getting into trouble with the law, and in games he got called for many unnecessary roughness calls and cost his team plays and yards. By the time the draft rolled around his draft stock had…

    So all they had to do was just score a touchdown and go for a 2 point conversion. So me and most of the beefier guys on the team go out for goal-line defense. They tell us to just fill up the gaps and that’s what we did. I had gotten double teamed which opened up a seam for our fullback to fill the hole and make the stop on the 2 yard-line. This was honestly one of the best moments of my career playing football. We went going crazy, sidelines cleared and the 5,000+ fans that we’re there we’re all just as excited for us. We weren't the underdogs but normally don't beat them, and to pull this win off at home made it 3 times better for us. I was so excited when we won, we celebrated in the locker room and then a few kids on the team went back to my house to have some beverages to enjoy this fine…

    Facing the giants is a great movie, it shows the turning you life to God and having faith on Him makes no boundaries on anything. Miracles are made not just by admitting your defeat, like the grandfather said in the movie "if you only admit your defeat, then that's all you're going to get." This movie has told me, to believe and not lose faith even at the time where i would think there's no hope. Like coach Taylor did, even he had an underdog team he still believed in the, and that's where the impossible happen when they won the football championship.…
