I know a lot of people expect the Lions to become the same old Lions at some point in the year, and it may still happen, I'm not naive. They'll probably have to get some divisional wins under their collective belt before many people begin to believe they're for real.
I wouldn't pay too much attention to burnbabyburns comments. He's just a really, really bitter Chiefs fan right now. Lions are a much improved team this year, and should challenge for a playoff spot, especially if Matt Stafford is healthy.

I find it funny how after the Chiefs were bad for that many years a bad start to the season and already a couple drama queens are screaming to fire everyone associated with the team and start from scratch again. The same guy who had a massive fire Carl Peterson in his signature. Todd Haley may be in over his head as a head coach, trying to run the offence. That much I can agree with, but for chrissakes, if they fire the entire operation to start over from scratch again it's going to be 4 more years of basement dwelling.
