10. The Lions Hire Matt Millen

Even the four-time Super Bowl-winning linebacker knew he wasn’t qualified to run the Lions when owner William Cly Ford Sr. offered him the gig. “Mr. Ford, I really appreciate this, but I’m not qualified,” Millen said. Ford responded: “You’re smart. You’ll figure it out.” At least that last part was false: The team went 31-81 in seven years with Millen at the helm, and didn’t win a road game until his fourth season. He also selected Charles Rogers, Joey Harrington, and Mike Williams with top-10 picks.
