Detroit Lions 0-16
The beginning of the 2008 season was a continuation of the '07 losing slump, as the Lions were soundly defeated in their first three games. On Monday, Sept. 22, it was reported that Bill Ford Jr., when asked about Matt Millen, stated that he "wanted him out", but that it was not his decision. Only days later, on September 24, 2008, Millen was removed from his position as team president and chief executive officer. It was unclear whether Millen was fired or whether he resigned. Though a major victory in the minds of many fans and sports writers, the team has not been at all successful since Millen's termination. During the 2008 regular season, the Lions were winless (0-16), becoming the first team in NFL history to lose 16 games in a single season, and thereby winning the right to the first overall pick in the 2009 NFL Draft.
