Gym Shorts unhappy with boos

Gym does his fair share of jacking up clock management. But the coordinators are the real problem and imo need to be replaced before him. If I was searching for a head coach youre looking for a guy like Bill Obrien....an upstart offensive mind with experience. Youre not going to pay that kind of money to get rid of Shorts for a retread or a DC like Zimmer imo.
 
"Marty, we want to continue to need zero accountability and still keep our salaries and starting positions"

This is what I hear.

One of the replies was fitting for this team

"It's like me wanting to keep my boss who doesn't care what I do at work."
 
If the players lobby and Ford doesn't want to shell out 12 million. Schwartz could stay. Yowzas.
 
I'm starting to think he is going to keep his job. He should have been fired on Monday after being eliminated from the playoffs.

Maybe they are going to fire the entire coaching staff. Like someone else said...if that is the case they need someone to coach the team on week 17. Of course you could grab 10 6 year old kids to coach the team and the results would probably be better.

Too late for that b/c apparently Shorts has the HC's equivalent of a CEO's "golden parachute."

Its only a matter of whether or not they want to pay him by retaining his services, or after getting the ziggy & maybe while he tries to get another coaching gig with another team.

With what he has done with the Lions he will never get another chance to be a head coach in the NFL. Good thing Mayhew gave him that winning lottery ticket!
 
Shorts should be relieved that the increasingly hostile Lions fans just booed. Might have been much worse if they would have chanted "Same old Lions" over and over in unison.
 
Fire Schwartz Now!

Done More with Less...

Here they go...There they went.

Great stuff R...
 
I read an article earlier that was talking about Wisenhunt (sp?) as a possible candidate.
 
We should can all of them including the GM. Grow some nads Ford's... Give Cowher an offer he can't refuse. While your at it, fire the person (s) involved for your franchise supposedly losing money.
 
I just want someone with head coaching experience. No more long time coordinator, first time head coach kind of guys.
