We fans are sure. I haven't seen much beyond the OC calling plays to suggest they get how bad this is and make moves that big like changing back to a mauler apraoch. Too early from this game but I completely expect more of the same. Tepper is too clueless to understand anything and it's not an approach any of this staff would willingly do as far as I know. It's more of the same until something breaks the cycle.

Moore is going to go Smitty on us lol. They could end up with 3 wins on Thursday. It would be hilarious becaude it's at Tepper's expense

Yup. And suddenly the run game would improve. Short term fix but what low hanging fruit when there are so little positives to be had.

It's special in all the wrong ways

Fug it, just run the old blocking scheme. At worse you build up his value for a trade if they want to continue their dream build. Hell the entire line would probibly improve.

It's a short week and they get to play the team they gave the #1 pick to on Thusday. At least wait till after that game. IDK. I think we can hire a GM and let him take the lead on a rebuild. Yeah he would work with the current coaches but if they hire a GM with a HC preference then he just gets an extra year to prepare over Frank's corpse. Doesn't matter. There is a Tepper problem that has grown from one to two. I have zero hope left. It's just all a comedy now to me

Which is fugging hilarious anyway you look at it

QB is a weird position when it comes to need. Teams end up with crappy players all the time. He would have had a shot to go somewhere he could have had a chance at a second contract which looks to be dying here. I get why he took the money but that is on him. Just talking blame, he earned his though it's a drop in the bucket of suck they got going on.

It's a blank canvas for a rebuild in 25

The trade is what makes it so much worse. Waste a 1st on a dud QB? It happens. Waste 2 # 1 picks and more on a dud QB? That is soooooo bad lol. He isn't the worst QB ever but that trade will make him be a bust just by the cost alone.

You had me at 'Don't pick a QB #1 with obvious physical limitations'...

I can. It was a good move to get that #1 money but he may have screwed himself in the ling run. Can you imagine if he went in the 2nd and didn't have that trade hanging over his name forever?

All he had to do was half the combine stuff to make his hype disappear so yeah he played his part and made it way worse for himself. Too much blame for the Teppers, FO and coaching staff to really matter.

Wait, they sell Young jerseys outside of the youth size he wears on gamedays?

He will make a good clipboard holder for someone.

Maybe they are just both really not good? Brown is a yet and Reich is a duh. Some people were ready to promote him to HC without ever watching him run the offense. Now it looks like Reich was actually telling the truth and it's all a cooperative effort...

5 TDs when behind vs 1 when ahead. Half of the sacks came in the 4th quarter where his rating is also at it's highest. The quarter splits are telling as are the down splits. Having 3rd down be your worst one is brutal.

He gave up playcalling and that was the only in season thing hanging over him. Unless he loses the lockerroom or there is some scandle it's just a moot point. If fans want blood then start at Fritts. I don't personally think Tepper is ready to admit anything yet but that's a move that can be justified even if you ignore the Teppers problem in that equation.

He could be one and done but there really isn't a positive in firing him before the end of the season. It's not like he is going to Urban Myers himself. I get not being happy with Frank but he isn't close to the change worth seeing at this point IMO. Brown is already calling plays and they locked in this year months ago with some injuries to help it along.

PJ has him by an inch...

Yikes. I thought the Error era was a lot worse inside the fan base, it was brutal outside of it. The few Lions fans I know just laugh and say 'I'll believe it when I see it' to anything positive I say to them about the Lions and that fills more than a few gaps. Thanks for the detailed inside view. I don't really feel sorry for any of these people at this point. It's not even the wins, it's the product on every level. I gave Rhule the benefit of the doubts and he absolutely never earned anything positive. My stance is if you want respect earn it because I'm tired of giving stuff away to people who don't deserve it. IDK if it's how Tepper has been running the team since he got here or what but I have no goodwill for free left at this point and they really haven't earned any from me yet.

I told you where to look. Im busy so if you are too lazy to do a quick search then that's on you.

Just ignore and hope he gets the help he looks to need

It's a clown show and I can't see anyone without pie on their face that works there.
