That's what happens when you grab coaches from the Lions.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Maybe we can get Rod back

 

[JScottWriter]

Well we can get Rod, Marty, and Martz back and have them wrestle a bear for who becomes HC.

Rod wins. He's the only one who has an axe and a shovel ready at all times.

On a more direct note, in Chicago 10-6 gets you fired, in Detroit 10-6 gets you god status.

in detroit 4-12 after 10-6 means all is well, no need for any changes apparently.

I think it was because they started 7-1 and then shit the bed as the reason he was canned.

Higher standards. We started 5-0 and shit the bed for the next year and a half.

Smith was also there longer. So maybe in 2 years you'll get your wish. Don't let the 10 win season fool ya. Smith never had to take over an 0-16 season. Different circumstances.

you cant possibly shit the bed any worse than 0-8 the last 8. Detroit is just a team full of losers and they enjoy the company of other losers.

 

[Mitchrapp]

I get that your upset but it doesn't change the fact its different circumstances and Ford is as patience as they come. And how can JS be canned without Mayhew following him? It starts with Mayhew.

I think Lovie Smith was a more-or-less solid HC who managed his players well.

what he DID NOT do well by a long shot was hire decent assistants, specifically OCs, which is the reason he is looking for a job.

Ron Turner, Mike Martz are complete washouts. And don't get me started on Mike Tice. How does a guy that retarded even get an interview, let alone a job?

I won't hire any of those three to scrub my toilet, let alone coach on my team.

Football players are dumb as shit. we need more coaches who come from some place other than up through the ranks.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Mike Tice might be the dumbest person on the planet.

 

[Michchamp]

Mike Tice might be the dumbest person on the planet.

haha. yeah. remember when he got caught trying to scalp the complimentary super bowl tickets he received as the Vikings head coach? what the hell is a multi-million dollar coach doing trying to earn a couple grand scalping tickets?

reminds me of the story of Ron Artest applying for a job at Circuit City to get a 10% employee discount on electronics while making $4 million a year playing for the Bulls.

 

[Mitchrapp]

And the times where he was late turning in his draft card two years in a row. Lol.
