Well, Fewell is the hire. Be ready...

From his interim 2009 head coaching days....

"We are who we are," said Fewell, adding he will wait until today to announce whether quarterback Trent Edwards or backup Ryan Fitzpatrick will start this weekend. "We have that identity. We're going to try to give a little spark, but we are who we are."

Beware of the headline to your post. Mr. Scot says this is a bannable offense when you post a definitive statement as if it were fact....

"Don't expect the mods to take kindly to this."

"Writing a headline and post that makes it sound like it's already happened without any sourcing? As often as not, that'll get you banned."

I know this isnt true but even it comes true this just shows you how brilliant the panthers are.

My initial reaction when reading, was fug and then my next reaction was a huge sigh of relief that it wasn't Manusky. The fact that Manusky is even a candidate makes me happy with anybody but him

Wow really? How could you really judge a coach before he becomes HC? I swear, these naive comments from this fanbase which makes me thankful that you guys are not running the team.

When asked, all Fewell could muster up was the repeated mutterings of a man who had just been beaten. "Vick.... Vick.... Vick...." was all that was heard.

Yes, the Giants defense coached by Perry Fewell gave up 28 points to the Philadelphia Eagles in just over 7 and a half minutes and lost. Lost not only the game, but also lost a real shot at getting into the playoffs.

I gurantee you i have done more research than you have on all 4 mentioned candidates so far. Besides us fans our entitled to our opinions and dont have to like or agree with everything the team does.

lol yeah, because you have done more research then Hurney and Morrison... Its not all about previous stats and rankings.

and true, everyone is entitled to their opinions but this notion that these candidates can't succeed because because they were on sucky teams is pretty stupid, imo.

    • 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.
