Rivera should be on the hotseat

Blaming coaching at this point is pretty dumb. There's a clear lack of talent on the field, and its at extremely notable positions like OT and DE.

 

We tore down a super bowl roster, and to rub salt in the wound, we did it in a year when the entire conference is garbage.

I'm saying Dave gettleman isn't the mythical manbeast this board wants him to be and the evident talent drop off from last season reflects on him

 

deal with it, sheep.

Other than Norman we didn't lose any key players.  Teams are just clearly learning how to coach against us, and Rivera has no idea how to react

Is this a serious post?

The team was never going to be good if we simply brought all of last year's players back. The NFL doesn't work that way. Were older and teams have adapted to us. 

Unfortunately, however, we didn't even bring that roster back.

Instead our starting LT is some guy who shouldn't be in the NFL, there is literally not enough bodies to play at the defensive ends, and the secondary is completely overmatched.

 

Its a dumpster fire right now and there's really no excuse for it given what we could've been.

I'm fully capable of forming my own opinion based on my analysis. You just said a 15-1 team doesn't have talent. That's asinine.

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that.

      I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
