Reading more on it, Massachusetts law prevents anyone from reporting on a legal issue more than 7 years old. Patricia was a resident there so we don't know if this was found in the background check or not.

That is crazy to me, I have had one job that required a background check and they had people interviewing all my family and neighbors from every place I live in the last decade. I have no doubt that company knew my history better than I did by the time it was done.

Quinn has been talking about hiring Patricia as head coach for over 2 years now, I don't think there has ever been another candidate that had a realistic shot for the team. Do you think if this was discovered and reported during the process anything would have changed?

But you are right @RobBase this is one thing we can keep off the pile of failures that have come to define Quinn. Patricia probably should have been more forthcoming when they ask if he had ever been charged with a crime. That was when he brings that up and explains it, then when the story breaks Lions can say they know about it, looked into it, and have no concerns. The entire news cycle is much shorter at that point.

You're my boy @Mebert - but I've got news for you brother - do a quick Google Search of "Bob Quinn failures" and you'll get 0 results.

The only person in the world throwing that shade at BQ - is you.

Friend to friend on the real: next year stay away from the GM cosplay game. Find a healthier hobby.

Want to know difference between us when we don't like what the GM is doing? I am far more reserved than you.

I have been unhappy about it for a month and made a few comments on it, you took over the every single thread with the same comment for 2 solid years when a player you like left in free agency.

While I appreciate you looking out for my well being, perhaps you should have some self awareness to your own behavior before you critique what others have to say.

0 failures is an interesting take. That kind of shows the only thing less rational of my dislike of Quinn is your undying devotion to him.

The fact that every trade he makes is with the Patriots, and everytime he does a terrible job with it is suspicious as hell.

Fuck Quin and fuck the Lions

Ya you're doing great buddy.

Cool as a cucumber.

Really Stomp, you hate him? Why? Because he didn't draft the players you like or sign the free agents you wanted?

Because he's making bad trades(trades you would have roasted him for if it were either of the Millens) signing his Patriot buddy instead of doing a real coach search, and trying to convert to a 34 faster than needed. Honestly he seems worse than Millen jr at this point.

Wow, ok.

"his Patriot buddy instead of doing a real coach search..."

You talk like he's some defensive line coach like Rod Marinelli and not the DC of the greatest football team of your lifetime.

Guess he should have hired Teryl Austin since nobody on planet Earth thought he was HC material but this board.

And for the record I have zero problem with his trades. He jumped ahead of two teams to take his players. That's a good thing. You guys act like trading up in the draft is this CRAZY concept nobody but Bob Quinn dares do. Draft picks don't mean anything if you can't get the players on your board with them.

I love the way a simp like you, virtue signals.

At this point if someone goes out of their way to bash Trump i just assume they hate America, Americans and World Peace.

Different strokes.

Btw, Even though you intended this to be an insult, I take it as a compliment. Reddit is a wonderful resource of knowledge you have no reason to be afraid of. You just have to know what you're looking for.

From the moment Quinn got here everybody knew he was going to bring in a patriot coordinator to fill the HC position, but instead of doing it right away he kept Caldwell on for 2 years as a lame duck, why? Many GMs use this trick to get a few extra years of pay out of their organizations.

Nope not Austin he should have brought in multiple real candidates not just a Rooney rule guy and actually took the best guy instead of hiring his buddy like everyone knew he was going to.

So he traded up to get ahead of the Redskins, who had zero prior contact with Johnson and met with Guice 4 times prior to the draft and who was being considered in the first depending on who was available. The other trade was even more ridiculous just take Hand in the 3rd and grab the S he made a huge reach on with our 5th round pick.

Take it however you want. reddit is fine if you don't mind digging through Dank Memes and up vote parties to find anyone who actually wants to talk football and when you finally do you just get the "in Mayhew/BQ we trust" BS with dudes telling you you're an armchair GM leave it to the pros.

Agreed. I was not 100% satisfied with the draft but at least I got 2 players on my board plus a couple more that I was satisfied with.

I dont understand why year after year I get crap for my draft and yet most of those players end up being very good. I remember having arguments about Dak Prescott and Antonio Brown being drafted in the middle rounds. One of these numbnuts thought some 6'5 nobody white dude was a better choice then Dak. The biggest laugher was someone posted on CBS we should not waste a middle round pick on Brown because he was nothing more than a kick returner.:pound:
