04:08 PM ET 10.08 | What a difference a year makes. Last year the Detroit Lions were the darlings of the NFL, sporting a gaudy 5-0 record and strutting around like the only rooster on the farm. They were so confident I kept referring to them as "Team Swag." They made an unbelievable comeback against the Dallas Cowboys, and blew out the Bears in their first appearance on Monday Night Football in 10 years, and would use that 5-0 start to vault themselves into the playoffs for the first time this century. They were the hottest team in the NFL. So hot that Leno and Letterman started making jokes about how GOOD they were.
