Head coach Jim Schwartz has the Detroit Lions moving in the right direction, finally. After so much futility for so long, the Lions finished a modest 6-10 in 2010, but look to be a team on the rise. In fact, some people are even expecting a playoff season for the team in 2011, causing a surge in interest for Detroit Lions tickets.

But in order for that to happen, their young quarterback standout, Matt Stafford, needs to stay healthy and stay on the field. He's missed so much time with injury already, and the Lions really need him to be out there and performing. If he is, then he can hook up with talented wideout Calvin Johnson and put up some points.

The team's real turnaround effort though has been on defense. Already with stud defensive lineman Ndamukong Suh from last season's NFL draft, this year they brought in reinforcements in the form of star Alabama defensive tackle Nick Fairley. That line could be scary, and the Lions are certainly hoping that it will be.

The players and staff with the Lions are certainly sick and tired of being in the cellar. With the 2011 NFL season be the time for them to break out and make a real run towards the postseason? Fans are crossing their fingers for a healthy quarterback, and an imposing defensive line to get the job done.
