Lions Win 2010 Misfit Bowl


The Wall Street Journal took eight terrible NFL teams -- the Kansas City Chiefs, Buffalo Bills, Oakland Raiders, Cleveland Browns, St. Louis Rams, Washington Redskins, Detroit Lions, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers -- and ran them through a simulator to determine the NFL's worst team of the year.

Four teams are picked from each conference.WSJ's Jason Gay writes that the Seahawks barely missed the cut since such a balance was needed: "sorry, Seattle, Buffalo nudges you out because the AFC needs one more bad team."

The Detroit Lions went on to win -- or is it lose? -- the tournament, dubbed the 2010 Misfit Bowl. Therefore, they are the NFL's ultimate loser this year (sorry Lions fans).
