FanSided’s Atlanta Falcons Blog, Blogging Dirty, put together a list of the number of starting quarterbacks each NFL franchise has used since 2000.
The Lions’ place on the list isn’t as ugly as their record over that time, but it still isn’t pretty. A total of 11 men have received starts at quarterback for the Detroit Lions, with Joey Harrington getting more than any other over that time.
The full list of Lions’ starting quarterbacks since 2000 goes like this: Stoney Case, Charlie Batch, Ty Detmer, Mike McMahon, Joey Harrington, Jeff Garcia, Jon Kitna, Dan Orlovsky, Daunte Culpepper, Matthew Stafford, and Drew Stanton.
We already know how important it is for Matthew Stafford break the cycle, taking a look at some of those names highlights the point even more.
See Blogging Dirty’s original post for the full list.
