They're just getting shutout by a 3-7 team...

Has anyone from Belichick’s “tree” actually had success as an NFL HC?  Off the top of my head Vrabel has probably done the best and I’m not sure he really counts since he was only a player

McDaniels did an awesome job as HC in Indy.

He needed to be gone yesterday.  We Detroiters have nothing to cheer for.  Quinntricia needs to be sent packing!

[Law 220]

Makes you wonder if the Ford's even care to win.

Give him another year or two.

Flores doing pretty well in Miami but for the most part not really.

If I were a guy like Eric Bienemy, you have to realize that a coach can only do so much.  He, along with other head coaches waiting in the wings should want to be sure the front office is going to do something to get them talent on the field they can win with.  Scouting and personnel decisions make just as much difference, if not more than any head coach can.

Teams like the Texans, Jets, and Lions need a different approach with talent acquisition as well.

Good point, and definitely agree that you don't want to head into a can't win situation. But if it's your first gig, you get a 5 year, good money deal. Already have at least a QB you think you'd be happy with. Or have a high pick, so you can draft your QB.

I'd think you'd have to jump at the offer. If your ultimate goal is to be head coach.

One thing has remained constant in the Detroit Organization.  The Fords. 

I live in Michigan and will never ever buy a Ford.

For more than one reason, lol

If the Lions lose this game... Is Patricia yanked?  Or finish the season?

With his lucrative job and future in jeopardy, I would assume that's the best he could hope for from his wife.

It's official.  

[pipeman 16]

About time. Hopefully the Ford's announce the sale of the franchise as well.
