1st quarter Power Rankings

I'm fine with being second. We did lose to the Packers after all. Every since Schwartz came to Detroit I knew they were ready for a turn around. They've got a blossoming QB and 1st round talent all around. They almost always get one of the top picks in the draft. Yeah, I know it sounds crazy but the Lions are and have been my surprise pick of the year.

I agree with you about the Lions; I honestly feel that they will seriously challenge the Packers for the division; the Thanksgiving Day game between the Lions-Packers could be the game of the year.

I was in Detroit a couple weeks ago and told several Lions fans that and they looked at me like I was crazy.

Actually I don't think the Lions are a surprise at all, they were an improved team already last year so this progress was kind of expected by me.
