Detroit has actually been rebuilding long before it took Stafford with the top overall selection of the 2009 NFL draft, having suffered through eight consecutive losing seasons prior to making the then-University of Georgia standout its franchise face. Stafford's first two years in the league were trying times as well, with the strong-armed 23-year-old enduring a slew of injuries and the Lions compiling a lackluster 8-24 record over that span, but 2011 has t |

Detroit, meanwhile, has been on a two-year rise since being the NFL's equivalent of the Great Depression, when the Lions became the first team in league history to lose each and every contest of a 16-game season. They chose University of Georgia quarterback Matthew Stafford with the first pick in the 2009 draft and baby-stepped to two wins, before tripling the count to six under comparatively anonymous sideline boss Jim Schwartz -- another soon-to-be third-year coach -- last seas |
