Caldwell's Staff

[grandy]

Both could probably do a better job than Todd Downing

Ill go with Durham for qb coach. Lets staff still have his butt buddy on the payroll and we don't have to see him on the field anymore

Wtf do you really need a qb coach for when you have Caldwell and Lombardi?

 

[mhughes0021]

I nominate Hughes, that way when Staff's ego gets in the way, Hughes can smack it down and remind everyone how much they all suck

I do have a history developing QBs. In pop warner craig krenzel was my center...in high school I was rb and he was qb and he went on to win a national championship at OSU. all me lol....

Seems like kind of a waste if Stafford isn't "broken", doesn't it?

Lions add Tony Oden (secondary assistant?) and Matt Raich (quality control - defense)

The article also hints that they may not hire a QB coach since both Lombardi and Caldwell have experience in that department

HAHAHA Jim Bob Cooter.... One of the more epic names in the NFL IMO.

 

[michiganalex]

true, but Schwartz was ribbed a lot too especially linking it with SPACEBALLS

Looks like they've removed the QB coach entry, perhaps this is an indication that the coaching staff is set

 

[lgolfer]

Looks like Lombardi will likely be calling the plays on offense.

Saints playbook it seems we are using as the starting point too.

I wish we had the Saint's QB to execute the plays!

We have a younger one with a better arm who's already known to get alot of yards, first downs and TDs in a season without that playbook.

It's not about the strength of the arm...it's about accuracy!

Stafford is more accurate than you think. And in tight coverage and under pressure, it is about arm strength.

no...he is less accurate than you think!

False. 3% drop rate higher than league average and dealing with Kris Durham due to injuries.

WRs 1-3 and TE stay healthy like 2011 for all 16, 41 TDS and better completion %
