I'm thinking of posting the entire article despite the length, but I'll probably do it later this week after the results of today's Lions at Bears game.
Anyway, here's what the article thought of our current Owner and where she ranked in the list of 32 NFL Owners:
Sheila Ford Hamp as of 12-8-2023.jpg
23. Sheila Ford Hamp, Detroit Lions: 26-35-1 (.427)
Owner since: 2020
Playoff record: N/A
Coach inherited: Matt Patricia
Coaches hired: Dan Campbell (21-24-1)
The Lions are 17-5 in their past 22 games and on pace to have top-10 scoring offenses in consecutive seasons for the first time since Barry Sanders and Herman Moore starred for the team under coach Wayne Fontes in the mid-1990s.
Ford Hamp became vice chairwoman of the Lions when her father, William Clay Ford Sr., died in 2014 and left the team to her mother, Martha Firestone Ford. She took over ownership from her mother in 2020 and started fresh by firing Patricia and general manager Bob Quinn during that season.
