10. Cleveland Browns at Detroit Lions: If you're Eric Mangini, you must worry. Your owner is willing to talk to Mike Holmgren and others about running the organization nine games into your run as coach. Players are talking to the NFL Players Association over grievances regarding the coaching staff. Fans are fed up. Your QBs can't stretch the field in the passing game. A loss to the 1-8 Detroit Lions would officially make the Browns the worst team in football.

“Here’s a reality of this league,” John started, “you never pick up where you left off the season before. We’re never back to a minute left in the AFC championship game ready to take it to the Super Bowl. We’re not there until we earn our way back there again. Every team starts over, and the foundation for us starts right now. We build the whole thing from scratch."

Thankfully this isn't on tv here

It could have been worse. It could have been the Thanksgiving Day game

The loser gets the #1 pick in the draft.
Seriously, I don't think the Browns can win this one.

I don't either. Detroit is playing better on both sides of the ball.

News item: This Sunday's game between the Cleveland Browns and Detroit Lions at Ford Field will be blacked out on local television because of soft ticket sales.

My take: The Lions had to announce the TV blackout because they were afraid no one would notice.
