How many black candidates do you have to interview now to satisfy the Rooney rule?

 

[MrS]

Lions looking almost certainly one and done, we will find out soon if fraley is the guy.

 

[Screamin12th]

looks like 2 of the better teams in the NFC will be out.

 

[Screamin12th]

I wanted the Lions to win it this year, sucks they lost. When i look at one fan base that deserves it, its Detroits. Guess that just leaves it open now for the Bills another teams fan base that i feel deserves it. I still remember to this day the brutal 90's they had. Going to the superbowl 4 times in a row and losing EVERY ONE OF THEM. They could have had the greatest team alive had they won 3 out of 4 and would have looked like one of the ultra elites had they won 2. Instead its a big black eye and bruised memories.

Just save us from another "Chiefs" win.

Carter with the sack on 3rd down, such a fucking shame he isnt on our team

 

[Screamin12th]

Lol so watching the Bills and Ravens and the size difference of the Ravens offense to the Bills defense is crazy. They had a play to the sideline and when all the defensive lineman and offensive lineman were walking back to the field the Camera had the perfect view of the ENORMOUS size difference lmao it Looked so unfair.

I was asking about any of our past OCs we've hired.



It's not like the Jags or Eagles were offensive power houses when he was their HC.

That Eagles offense was really good. Jags much different story.

 

[jerseyhawksfan79]

He won a Super Bowl and was fired with 2 years of winning a Super Bowl.

They let him go basically cause he wanted to choose his coordinators and Howie said no. Dougie wasn't happy about that so they parted ways.

Ben johnson to the bears, what happens to fraley?

 

[Anointed One]

Ben johnson to the bears, what happens to fraley?

Their (Lions) OL coach will probably be their oc

 

[MrS]

Their (Lions) OL coach will probably be their oc

that is what im wondering

Detroit Lions linemen won’t let coach Hank Fraley go

If it’s up to them, Detroit Lions offensive linemen won’t let Hank Fraley leave for other opportunities.

Tanner Engstrand is the other possibility for them.

 

[MrS]

Fraley coming in for a second interview today

 

[flyerhawk]

Fraley coming in for a second interview today

He did great work with that OL. Hard to say how much of it was him versus the talent.

 

[MrS]

The players love him, and the fans do too. He will need to bring some schemers with him i imagine, or maybe we keep Jake peetz and let him run the passing game.

Think Macdonald loves the Lions approach on offense, run the ball and be physical. Obviously Ben Johnson was going to get a HC job so Fraley became a candidate. I won't mind him as HC with Udinski as passing coordinator and Peetz as Udinski assistant so to have some experience at play calling.
Got to wonder if Ben Johnson would want Fraley as OC for the nuts and bolts and since he's calling the plays Fraley lack of experience in that area won't matter. Also possible Detroit offers Fraley the OC job to hold onto him. Not many line coaches get OC jobs but think Andy Reed was one of the exceptions.

 

[MrS]

i like what ive read about fraley but i still think this offense needs an experienced play caller with a pedigree.

 

[Screamin12th]

I dont care who they bring in as i am sure they will do their Homework. I just don't want them to can Scott Huff. I believe Huff can turn our line into a pretty good one with time.
