Jim Schwartz: No reason to regret any draft picks

Detroit Free Press (Free subscription) | 11/26/2009

Lions coach Jim Schwartz is thankful for his rookies. "I shudder to think where we'd be right now if we didn't draft well this year," Schwartz said. The Lions are only 2-8, and their rookies have had up-and-down seasons, as rookies do. But the draft class is coming off an encouraging performance in Sunday's 38-37 victory.

Wednesday Notes: Schwartz and Mangini Clear the Air

Pride Of Detroit (Free subscription) | 11/26/2009

The Packers have lost both Al Harris and Aaron Kampman for the season because of knee injuries. Eric Mangini and Jim Schwartz talked after Mangini implied that the Lions faked injuries on Sunday and the two "cleared the air." It apparently dawned on Mangini that he was simply deflecting blame by making those accusations, and he took some responsibility for the loss during today's press conference....

Lions' guard issues worsen

Detroit Free Press (Free subscription) | 7 hours ago

The Lions had a revolving door at left guard. Now they have a revolving door at both guard spots. Manny Ramirez and Daniel Loper both were benched at points in the second half of Thursday's 34-12 loss to Green Bay. Backup Dylan Gandy filled in at both spots. Loper eventually left with a back injury. "You're accountable for your performance," coach Jim Schwartz said today....

Schwartz gives Stafford another stripe as a leader

Detroit Free Press (Free subscription) | 7 hours ago

Don't call him Captain Stafford. But in a subtle way, Lions rookie quarterback Matthew Stafford has earned another stripe as a leader. Coach Jim Schwartz has sent out Stafford for the coin toss at least the last couple of games, a duty usually reserved for the team captains. The Lions elected team captains before the season: center Dominic Raiola on offense, linebacker Larry Foote on defense...

In this second quarter of Thursday's 34-12 loss, Lions safety Louis Delmas laid a lick on Packers tight end Jermichael Finley and took a 15-yard penalty for unnecessary roughness. Delmas' helmet flew off, the ball fell incomplete and Finley was defenseless. Finley told reporters it was a dirty hit and that he told Delmas payback would be coming. It didn't matter that Delmas...

Lions endure another blowout on Thanksgiving

Detroit Free Press (Free subscription) | 18 hours ago

The Lions' 70th Thanksgiving Day game wasn't supposed to be just another game this year. Coach Jim Schwartz had made a point to say it was something special and worth protecting. Maybe a statement game the rest of the country could watch so that it would keep its mitts off Detroit's tradition.

Lions players and coaches speak after loss to Green Bay

Detroit Free Press (Free subscription) | yesterday

Lions coach Jim Schwartz, on Green Bay containing receiver Calvin Johnson: "We're doing just about everything we can. We moved him into the slot, we moved him outside. Calvin wasn't 100%; he was another (game-time decision). We had a nationally televised game and he wanted to come out and help his team. We need him, so again, he wasn't 100% and he got out there and...

Lions try to regroup after latest disaster

sinnettlpjse | 11/06/2009

ALLEN PARK, Mich. – Jim Schwartz doesn't want his Detroit Lions to play an overly conservative offense. Without Calvin Johnson, he doesn't think he has much of a choice. Even with a bye week to prepare and the return of rookie quarterback Matt Stafford, the Lions (1-6) couldn't move the ball consistently against the hapless St. Louis Rams on Sunday, losing 17-10 to a team that hadn't won a game in...
