Barry Sanders qualifies as a football expert based on his Hall of Fame career with the Lions. But the superstar running back is as amazed as the common fan at the depths his former team sank to in the last decade.
But Sanders can see the Lions climbing out of the NFL's basement -- with quarterback Matthew Stafford leading the way.
Sanders, who is featured in a Miller Lite national charity campaign to raise money for the V Foundation's cancer-research program, evaluated the Lions' past and future in an interview Tuesday morning. The promotion is connected to Super Bowl XLIV Sunday between the Colts and Saints.

So, if we would've just drafted Stafford at 10 years old
We could have kept Barry around a few more years. If only…
Its possible
Barry told them when your ready to win call me. Just to sad that they waited to long to do it.

That would be one hell of a Story!!! Barry Jr comes to the Lions and along with Stafford, CJ, Delmas, leads the Lions to the SB….

LOL Barrys a little old for that. It would be cool to give him the gordy howe treatment and sign him for 1 game though.

How would he coach?
I have this mental picture of him telling the RBs “Ok. Just go out there and bend time and space while you scoot left and right until you see a hole and run”
lol

that would be funny shit though sign him for one game
he goes out there to open up and but out a 75 yard run
that it would.
or ends up getting just as many yards as he was short of the record. lol
