 Latest news and information about the Detroit Lions.
Updated: 10 weeks 2 days ago Lions Team Report (Yahoo! Sports)The Lions entered the offseason with a goal of helping quarterback Matthew Stafford, the No. 1 overall pick in the draft last year, hoping more weapons, better health and another year of experience would lead to a big leap in his second NFL season. After the 2009 season ended, coach Jim Schwartz was asked to categorize Stafford's progress. This was the first thing he said: "We need to do a better job of supporting our quarterback." The Lions have added offensive weapons like wide receiver Nate Burleson, tight end Tony Scheffler and running back Jahvid Best, while bolstering the defense with linemen like Kyle Vanden Bosch, Corey Williams and Ndamukong Suh. "Now all of a sudden it's not just about the quarterback," Schwartz said in an interview on ESPN Radio. The good news and bad news of Daunte Culpepper's UFL landing (Yahoo!
