  1. Good teams develop coaches from within. I expect the Lions to promote other coaches to coordinator positions if they get hired.
  2. I've seen a couple in the national media say the Lions are the 3rd best team in the NFC right now and I'm not sure I disagree. Philadelphia, San Francisco and then who else? I think an argument can be made for Dallas, but other than that, I don't see an NFC team that is better right now.
  3. There could be some better options. The NFC South is terrible so it could come down to Tampa and Atlanta playing that week. You have Baltimore and Cincinnati which could be for the AFC North. Jets at Dolphins could also be a win or go home game. Giants could be in a win or go home against Philadelphia. Same with Washington vs Dallas. Lot of options.
  4. Definitely going to get a Monday Night game. I would even say as of right now the Lions would be favorites for the division so the Lions will get some prime time games. Plus the league owes them one for letting Buffalo use Ford Field. One Moday Night game should be at home.
  5. I'm kind of surprised Decker hasn't gotten more Pro Bowl buzz.
  6. What I like is that the ability to find players late in the draft has transferred to the Lions. St Brown, Rodriguez, Jospeh all look to be future starters (St Brown is obvious). Houston looks like he can be a pass rushing specialists which is tremendous value for a 6th rounder. The Lions have two 6th rounders who are playing a big role on this team. A lot of times with executives from good team you find out the success wasn't the assistant like with Quinn. It's looking like Holmes really was the brains behind the Rams talent evaluation. I would also tip my cap to Sheila since Brad Holmes was not on the radar when the search began.
  7. Lions currently have a top 5 offense with a QB who is currently top 10 but lets get a new QB like Josh Allen. The Bills average 0.4 more points per game than the Lions and only 15 more passing yards per game than the Lions. They have 4 more passing TDs than the Lions but also 4 more INTs. The difference between the Lions and Bills is that the Lions defense gives up 11 more points per game than the Bills but the Lions need a QB. On a side note, the Cardinals now have the worst scoring defense in the league. The Lions defense is no longer historically bad and they went 4-1.
  8. I mean, Brad Holmes was one of the major voices in the room that drafted Goff after trading multiple 1sts. I don't think they draft a QB. I'm also becoming certain he took Goff back in a trade to be the future QB. I think some people were just determined to draft a QB the minute Stafford was traded.
  9. If it were just that easy to draft the next Josh Allen. The Jets have taken two whacks at drafting a QB in the top 10 in the past 4 years and are now starting a 5th rounder. It was just 2016 that Goff was the QB you had to draft and the Rams traded multiple picks to get him.
  10. The official form will have a write in section.
  11. The Lions actually have deep threats now and Goff is hitting them. That's so weird. Why wasn't the deep pass working with KhaDarel Hodge? Goff is now 5th in TDs, 6th in QBR, 7th in QB rating, and 8th in yards. Top 10 QB.
  12. I think it's time to bring this back again.
