They like to bring up the fact that Barry Sanders loses so many yards, yeah he was running for his life. There were times when he had to make two or three moves just to get back to the line of scrimmage.
Tim Levis I didn’t say he sucked I said he was a joke. He used to intentionally miss blocks for players he didn’t like. Also see his 1995 “guarantee” of victory vs the Eagles in the playoffs only to be down 51-7 in the 3rd, a game that Lomas supposedly missed blocks for Scott Mitchell on purpose btw.
Yep, they let key cogs leave in free agency like Chris Spielman, Lomas Brown, Ray Crockett, Benny Blades and Kevin Glover. There was just no real direction to building the team into a legit contender, which would have kept Barry's fire going.
Why? Because Its a fucking piece of history. That’s why. Just like I miss the silverdome, tiger stadium, the Boston garden, Chicago stadium, and so on and so on...
The Lions actually had a chance to replace Scott Mitchell with Warren Moon, who was one of the best QB's in the game at the time, but the Lions chose to keep Mitchell. A move that only made sense to the Lions.
Matt Kersey, do you happen to have 1997 Detroit Lions @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers Wild Card Playoffs, 1998 Week 9 Arizona Cardinals @ Detroit Lions and 1999 Week 12 Thanksgiving Chicago Bears @ Lions?

Ricardo Lozano He was/is part of a murdering narcotics ring. But mostly (imo) because he's a lazy opportunistic scumbag. And you'd feel similarly if you had of worked with him.
It was said that Barry Sanders was chasing that record and the 49ers wanted him to have that record it was said that by the defense coordinator in the other coaches and even the head coach said BlackBerry get that record and this was the last game so it didn't matter if for Niners win or lose and if you look at the film it really seems like they just didn't want to tackle in now I know that every game you should try to win the game and not take on purposely that's a Unwritten rule in the NFL is that you do not tank you fight for every inch even if you're like 1 and 11 keep fighting but on this occasion it was said that they had the highest respect for Barry Sanders the 49ers Stitt it was actually rumored when Barry Sanders wanted to be traded or get cut and the Niners offered him a good contract because Barry wanted a Super Bowl ring and a lot of people that upset at Barry because he retired early and thinking that he was a traitor because he wanted to leave Detroit but can you really blame him Detroit Lions had the greatest running back of all time and how can you not build a team around them alarm a football fans who were fans of different teams and even in the media said like when they're talking about football game coming up like San Francisco versus the Dallas Cowboys well it wasn't that way when we played Detroit Lions it was always said San Francisco 49ers versus Barry Sanders and it was true he had no offensive line whatsoever and look what he did to defenses rip them apart defensive coordinators all they had a word about is Barry Sanders and put 10 people in a box Barry Sanders does hold the record for the last yardage of a football game against Green Bay Green Bay all they needed to stop them when he was naked and a person like Barry Sanders I cannot build a team around him like I said earlier on how can you not build a team around him do you have the best running back give them a defense give him a offensive line I'm more important give him a quarterback and good receivers that way they won't focus on Barry Sanders he actually went to the store lions and ask nicely if they can trade it because there were rebuilding again as much as it will hurt the lion fans and Detroit itself they should have been the right decision to do that how many players have we seen that did great throughout the career all sudden they get injured they don't produce as much and get cut let's see what happened to Jerry Rice Rod Woodson Thurman Thomas head coach Tom Landry Brett Favre Joe Montana all those players and plus more they were cut by their teams it really sucked but the NFL is not just a game it's a business if not more of a
The greatest RB's who ever played, Gayle Sayers and Barry Sanders both played on losing teams for years. Gayle with the Chicago Bears and Barry with the Detroit Lions. Barry Sanders wanted to retire early to be in league with Cleveland Browns Great.
Now this is Monday night football. Fuck I miss the 90s. I think this was Wayne’s last season. Bobby Ross was next man up.
It was. Wayne's last game.
The 2nd string QB’s back then were better than the majority of starters are in this day and age
Tits up, huh?

Tim Levis Lomas Brown was a joke
@@TheLocalLt He was named to seven straight pro bowls,between 1990 and 1996. What is your criteria for a player who sucks?

@@TheLocalLt 😲😲😲 big Lomas was like that foreal?
Tim Levis RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT!!!! Thanks for saying that, I been preaching that for years
Feel like the lions eventually broke Barry's spirit..Had some great yrs in 90's..
Sadly so
Yep, they let key cogs leave in free agency like Chris Spielman, Lomas Brown, Ray Crockett, Benny Blades and Kevin Glover. There was just no real direction to building the team into a legit contender, which would have kept Barry's fire going.
1995 receiving champion Herman Moore vs 1996 receiving champion Jerry Rice

Why? Because Its a fucking piece of history. That’s why. Just like I miss the silverdome, tiger stadium, the Boston garden, Chicago stadium, and so on and so on...
Me too
I wish I could have replaced Mitchell with Stafford in the 90's. I bet the lions would have made a Superbowl.
Erik Kramer was the Lions QB that won the only playoff stomp over Dallas in the 91 Divisional Round.
The Lions actually had a chance to replace Scott Mitchell with Warren Moon, who was one of the best QB's in the game at the time, but the Lions chose to keep Mitchell. A move that only made sense to the Lions.
Umm, no, they wouldn't

This game happened on my 3rd birthday ...how weird
Wayne Fontes was correct at the beginning - his team did play well in this game.
Barry Sanders (best running back ever) Vs. Jerry Rice (best receiver ever)
Well said!
Why don't they ever show the damn score!
My youngest brother Juan resides at 206 S. Post Spokane,Washington ......Why doesn't the staff at the Spokane Veterans Administration Hospital help American/European Union citizens who just happen to be black?.
Good Night!
Wayne Fontes.. A good guy
