Next GM and Head Coach

[mhughes0021]

LOL its on the play caller and the plan for Swift. Plus he missed a couple games. The coaches put Adrian Peterson in the game a ton and KJ some in passing. Stafford can't run to the sideline and throw Peterson onto the bench. Peterson played 314 snaps. Swift 398 and some of that is obvious passing situations too. Swift will get more carries in year 2 but he will still share with another back. Swift is not a workhorse

kamara had like 2 games this year when he rushed for more than 100 yards. Would you call that not productive? Its the Qbs job to score. Almost every play you run has an audible to run. Not running enough or giving enough carries to your feature back that averages 4.6 ypc is just as much on the QB as it is on the playcaller. The fact we havent been a good rushing team since Stafford has been here isnt all on Stafford....but he owns part of that blame for not putting the team in the right situation to be successful. Theres plenty of examples of this in almost every game where were facing a 6 man front in a decent down and distance and we dont run. That should be a run 90% of the time if you trust your oline and your back.

Saints were 6th in league in rushing hughes. Kamara, Murray, Hill

141 ypg to 93

Just stop. Stafford gets nowhere close to 6th in league in rushing

Hmmm lets really analyze the differences. Kamara and Swift get similar touches. Murray and AP get similar touches. Oh geez....hill completely out performs Stafford in the run game. Perfect more reason to get rid of his ass.

Lol Hill is not a real qb. Gimmick runner.. also murray 4.5 ypc. So saints have run support for brees. Lions have only swift for stafford

Lt and center are good..lg solid rookie. Peterson is not a hof caliber right now. Kj was hurt. Swift good. Run game had issues. Rg and rt big reason why

The support is about the production not the draft picks. You cant be that dense

Saints also have top 5 defense too.

Lions had sainta run game and defense then yeah stafford is mvp even without golladay

Lmao this isn?t Madden, your qb can?t just audible to a run every play he feels like it. He has to do it based on the defense and coverages. If he made incorrect calls and called run plays just to get touches for certain guys he would get torched in the film room for doing dumb shit and wouldn?t be playing.

The next coach will not be Saleh.

That's probably good. Every time I get excited about a HC candidate they do lousy.

 

[tomdalton22]

arguably, the two best coaching candidates (Meyer & Saleh) took jobs with teams that had worse records than the Lions. Both probably felt that those were better jobs.

Saleh seemed like the perfect fit, which means it was probably doomed to fail.

I don't know what to make of HC candidates anymore. I still remember 2014 when the Lions "missed out" on Ken Whisenhunt, who managed to win 3 games in 2 years at Tennessee. Bill O'Brien was the hot name that year too.

The reports was Saleh bombed his interview

Plenty of good coaches out there. I want the best HC/OC/DC combo. Let's see who Saleh picks for OC/DC

Dan Campbell emerging as favorite for Lions HC.

Not sure how I feel about this. The players love him and he’s been studying under Payton for a few years now. I like him more than most of the available candidates.

Campbell played for lions 2006 through 2008
