The typical NFL team's total value has grown 8 percent over the last half-decade. The Lions owner beat out the late Al Davis of the Oakland Raiders for the least desirable business honor in the NFL. The Silver & Black had the lowest income in the league last year.

Every owner has it in their best interest to field a winning product. If you win, they will come.
