Depends on your mindset.

Most guys taking head coaching jobs look at sh-t situations but say to themselves "I can fix it".

Is that Johnson? No idea 😕

You should have an idea based on the places/situations he has turned down the past two seasons.

If he takes the Raiders job under Davis after snubbing the Panthers under Tepper...Le Ouch 😖

That said, it's not farfetched to believe he was self aware enough in the past to believe he wasn't ready.

And frankly, kinda hard to deny that his past decisions have put him in a pretty good spot.

As of right now, I think we are in better shape than the Raiders.  That could change of course, but Bryce has played well the last 8 games or so, now we just need to tweek a couple of spots on offense, and fix the defense.  

We are definitely not in a better spot than the Raiders but that is a sinking and floating turd argument, ultimately.

I disagree, because we MIGHT have a qb.  They have relatively little chance of getting one.  But I suppose we will find out.  

We have a worse owner and a WAY worse roster. 

TBH, it's not that close of an argument.

Those really aren't debatable points. 

Sure, they are. Raiders roster is pitiful. They have the best young TE in the game. He’s probably the best TE period. 
 

Other than Bowers and Maxx Crosby (28yo at start of next season), what makes their roster special?

Their roster isn't special. Ours is historically bad. That is the difference.

I guess Johnson and Glenn have all the time in the world now to choose their next destination. History has shown even after a game like tonight, that usually doesn't affect interest.

Although if both leave, I think Lions fans are going to have a much bigger pill to swallow. Things tend to go bad for teams that has their staff poached away.

It won't affect interest, but it COULD affect Johnson's decision to leave, especially if it's for the Raiders.  

I think it's going to be tougher for him to go to a complete re-build without a QB after a loss like this one and not come back for one last run at a SB and then hopefully land with whatever team gets the #1 pick and Manning.

      Yep he made the comment " I dont know what they were doing out there at that point" in the press conference. Let's be real they all got paid but they also know his system suppresses there offensive potential.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By woahfraze · Posted

      Why are you so fixated on yards? Even if yards were a good judge of QB play, his low yardage totals in some of those games were partly a function of drops (looking at you Xavier Leggette…).  I’m not advocating that Bryce was elite for the last half of last year, but the eye test certainly supported high level QB play for large stretches. He made a lot of high difficulty, put it on the money/drop in the bucket throws. He converted on 3rd and 4th down, kept drives moving, and put the team in position to win games. And it’s not on him that the defense blew it late after he led game tying drives, Leggette dropped a game winning TD, or Chuba fumbled the ball in OT. We could have finished the season close to .500 with wins against 3 playoff teams including KC and Philly during that stretch largely due to Bryce’s play.    Has he sustained this level of play long enough to deserve an higher ranking? No. But for judging based in that stretch alone, he would. But whether he can perform more consistently at that level or build on that, and thus earns a higher ranking, remains to be seen.
