Motown Talking Playoffs...
Count Jonathan Wade as the latest Lion to predict a playoff appearance. The fourth-year cornerback doesn’t want excuses. He wants to deliver. And in doing so, he wants to send the Lions to their first playoff game since the 1999 season. “I’ve got to find a way to help this team get to the playoffs,” Wade said Thursday. “It’s been said. I’ve heard it. I want you to write this down. It’s been said. (Jon) Jansen said it. (Louis) Delmas said it. (DeAndre) Levy said it. Jonathan Wade now says we’re going to the playoffs: 9-7. We’re going to the playoffs.” — Detroit Free Press
For the record, we tend to agree with the upstart Lions. The roster has been completely overhauled since GM Martin Mayhew has taken reins. This team is not your Jon Kitna’s Lions, this team is ready to make some noise. On paper, the pieces are beginning to fall into place. Now, it is time to execute and mesh the talent into a productive football team. That is where HC Jim Schwartz factors in; a brilliant football mind and a rising coach, something Detroit has lacked for a long time.
Who else is hopping onboard the Lions Express…?
