GFB Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 The Lions let go Sam Gash (RB), Shawn Jefferson (WR), and George Yarno (OL). That will turn this team around REAL quick.I can't do another season of #LinehanLogic. Dammit.Technically, their contracts were up and the Lions announced they "would not be returning." Old man Ford wouldn't fire anyone over the holidays... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old man Ford wouldn't fire anyone over the holidays...Hence the "let go" and not "fired". Eh. I still think Linehan is horrible for this offense's progression. So I hope you're right haha.

rams80 Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 The success of Jim Harbaugh is the exception, not the rule, with college coaches moving to the NFL.There's a reason most of these moves have not worked.What about Pete Carrol?You mean the guy who took a good Patriots team and ran them off the rails?

rams80 Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Pretty obvious Schwartz / the front office took sides with LinehanLinehan historically has been rather skillful at identifying internal "enemies" and trying to take steps to neutralize them (to the detriment of his team). Unfortunately Linehan is also a paranoid P.O.S. who sees enemies behind every corner. Watch him try to trade Johnson for a 1st rounder.

BigEd76 Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 -- Dirk Koetter signed a 2-yr extension with the Falcons, so you can remove his name from the vacancy talk-- KC interviewed Reid in Philly before he left for his meeting in Arizona-- Ray Horton has a 2nd interview with the Cardinals-- Joe Banner is already in Arizona waiting to interview Chip Kelly, and while he was hanging around, he said hi to Horton to satisfy the Rooney rule Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DustDevil61 Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Andy Reid needs to take a couple years off, he needs to spend time with his family after the tragedy of this past summer. He's emotionally spent.In light of the Arizona and Kansas City jobs, I would agree as well. http://i.imgur.com/Pyc5qRH.gifhttp://i.imgur.com/RDXvxFE.gif LED Sig Credits to packerfan21396 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll get it if you know what you're looking for. Dude has ZERO situational awareness.Don't get me wrong, I fully believe that if enough people say Linehan sucks, then odds are that he sucks. There's no reason a team with Matthew Stafford and Calvin Johnson playing starring roles, and a pretty decent receiving unit around them (at least, when Pettigrew and Broyles were healthy, and Titus Young wasn't busy being a selfish bitch), should ever lose eight straight games. Trust me, I've dealt with my fair share of awful coaches over the years. The Bucs were so paranoid about losing then-DBs coach Raheem Morris to another team (in a DC role) that they made him their damn head coach, and 17-31 ensued. It's only made worse when awful coaching isn't met with the fate it deserves.And don't forget about Pat Shurmer, rams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
