I instantly lose respect for someone the minute they run to Twitter or Facebook to air their issues. Get a grip.
Offense is fine now guys. Lombardi is gone. The players are awesome. Now if only we could fire Austin?
I don't blame Austin. He showed he knew what to do with talent. Right now he doesn't have much.
I don't think you're gonna get too many Lions posting on the Hoop.
I believe I was referencing us. You never stated Lions, just someone...
But he's not the miracle worker some made him out to be either. Half this board was ready to make him HC in the middle of an 11-5 season.
I know he's probably gone after this year, but I like him as DC. Not a miracle worker, but competent. Competent coordinators are hard to find.
27th ranked D and 31st rush D. I know we have shitty players, but last year was all about our D line, not so much his coaching. Maybe I'll be proved wrong if he winds up w the top D in another town, maybe Miami.

I compare what he did the one year with Suh, with the four years Schwartz was running the show. It wasn't that Suh sucked the first four years.
And look at the talent on the offense. Lombardi did shit with it. But Tampa fucking Bay can put up 30 on Atlanta. What the fucking fuck?
He lost a lot more than just Suh.

Wide 9 plus KVB made it impossible for the Lions to have a staunch run game, regardless of Suh's dominant play. KVB was a big mistake by both Schwartz and Mayhew, set us back quite a few years.
Exactly my point. We could end up with a 'DC with a scheme'. And all KVB did was go balls to the wall for the QB, run defense be damned. He needed a leash.
Tampa has a run game.

Detroit could have one with the right OC. I know it's an extreme example, but Shanahan could make a run game out of anything.
