Detroit Lions
Detroit Lions tickets are once again in a rebuilding mode. For the fans that pack Ford Field, the hope is that GM Matt Millen’s third go at a head coach is a charm. Rod Marinelli certainly has the pedigree. Marinelli helped build the fabled Tampa Bay defense, developing players like Warren Sapp and Simeon Rice. But his strongest asset may be the discipline he brings to the job. Marinelli faces a tough task, getting the best out of a crew of talented but underachieving athletes. To get things started, Marinelli handed the reins of his offense off to ex-Rams coach Mike Martz, an offensive genius f the NFL ever saw one. On defense, Donnie Henderson, who built the Jets into one of the NFL’s better brick walls, will call the shots. With three experienced NFL coaches, all of whom are wearing Super Bowl rings, there’s a new gleam in the eyes of Detroit football fans. And they’re already lining up for their Detroit Lions tickets.
