Jard to win when your qb throws 3 picks and loses a fumble. All on the plus side of the field, red zone, or endzone.

The lions are one good qb away from running the league

This wasn't about hitting a wall with cap flexibility or anything like that. It was 100% all about injuries.

They were down to rolling out corpses that were still warm on the defensive side of the ball.

Dan Campbell will be our next coach, but he has to choke again in next year's playoff, finish 6-11 in the two seasons after that, and get fired before this happens.

100% this will NEVER HAPPEN.

If you would take Elko over Campbell you need your head checked

Campbell won't ever be a legit option.

Aaron Glen has done a phenomenal job considering the number of injuries that defense has endured. His stick isn't plummeting. Only someone with no clue would say that.
Cowboys lose one player and fold until he comes back.

The Lions will struggle next year. They likely lose both coordinators. And Goff will continue to decline.

I never said that. I'm well aware that Elko aced the midterm, but bombed the final this past season.

Sorry I will try again, coaches in the NFL almost always get fired and almost never last more than 10 years in a job because
1 ) they aren't winning enough or
2 ) after awhile winning teams have cap issues and the coach gets fired

Campbell will be looking for his next job in 5-7 years

the key takeaway is that Kingsbury is a brilliant O.C. / playcaller / QB developer

and it's wrong and foolish to assume A&M's and Johnny's 2012 season would have turned out the same under Sherman

How many guys have they had to rely on that were street free agents at the beginning of the season? This team has been totally decimated by injury where most teams would have totally collapsed. They made it to 15-2. That in itself is amazing. But it's hard to make the full run operating this way. I would take DC any day as a HC.

Oh it's happening, man. In 3 years after we fire elko, we're going to give Campbell a fully guaranteed $120M contract as he's coming off of back to back 6-11 seasons and a firing.

Buy high, sell low. It's the A&M AD way.

After Dan Campbell started 4-19-1 (3-13-1 in 2021, and 1-6 in first 7 games of 2022) in his first 24 games, he went gone 35-9 (8-2 in last 10 games of 2022, 12-5 in 2023, and 15-2 in 2024) in his last 44 regular season games.

As a 49er fan, I was rooting for Texas A&M alumni Dan Campbell and Aaron Glenn and the Lions, but the 15-2 Lions imploded at home because they lost the turnover margin 5 (4 interceptions and 1 fumble) to 0 and allowed 481 (299 passing and 182 passing) total yards and 38 (the other 7 from a pick-6) offensive points. The Lions had a huge rest advantage over the Commanders because they had a first-round bye, and the Commanders were coming off a 23-20 road win against the Buccaneers just 6 days earlier. Unfortunately, the Lions could not overcome several miscues.
