Fire Matt Millen

Matt Millen was hired in 2001 to take over as the GM for the Detroit Lions. The previous season the team went 9-7 and just missed the playoffs when they lost on the last play of the final game against the St. Louis Rams. Millen had before that had never been a coarch or has he ever had a front office position ever. Yet, he was named CEO and GM of the Detroit Lion franchise. Millen was talking very stern at his first press conference saying that they are not in a rebuilding project, and that his goal is to "win now".

Since then, the his record has been dreadful. In more then 5 1/2 season with the lions he has won only 23 times and lost 68. Thats in average of a 4-12 record! He still has New England, Chicago, and Dallas on there schedule. The other 2 games are Minnesota and Greenbay. Which they already lost to both of those teams this year. Every season he has been there they have lost at least 10 games! They have only won back to back games 2 times, and have never won 3 games in a row since Millen has been apart of this organization. When exactly is "NOW"?

I was reading from www.firemillen.com yes, there is a website. The Lions right now are tied with Arizona and Oakland for the worst record in the NFL at 2-9. Someone did a google search for Tie-Breakers in the NFL. They go on Strength of schedule, Lions have the 25th place, lower then both Ariza and Oakland. If the season were to end today do we want Millen taking our first pick overall in the draft? The article put it best when they said this "it would bring wasting a draft pick to a new level of suck."

Lions owner William Clay Ford gave Millen a five-year contract extension before last season when Millen's record was 16-48. Is this guy on crack??? Why is Millen still the GM? The problem goes way beyond Millen. They need new ownership and the fact is until William Clay Ford is owner the Lions will continue to be the laughing stock of the NFL. If you're a Lions fan looking for hope. It's not going to happen. Its not going to get any better. WE SUCK
