after tomorrows game. i know hes not the coach thus team needs. makes some questionable calls, doesnt seem to be a leader, but who is actually going to be attracted to this team? caldwell has been the best coach we've had in a long time and we still get rid of the guy.

He signed it before the season but they announced it mid season

Our offense has enough weapons for someone to want to coach the lions. Plus we have a couple people on defense. It's not like the lions are a shit show. With the right coach I think we could be a very good team

Of all the teams expected to fire their coaches the Lions have one of the best rosters. Outside of Denver and maybe Houston the Lions should have plenty of options

I expect every non-playoff team with a retread head coach to start looking for the next Sean McVay. The NFL is trendy like that.

except the coach is always on the wrong and winning and getting this historically bad team into the playoffs, isnt enough.

im all for getting rid of him but we should have two years ago. i cant blame the coaches for this team's failures though.

I expect Shurmur to get another head coaching gig, I just don’t want it to be within the division. He’s done an incredible job In Minnesota and his departure would render Keenum sorta useless. Either way, Shurmur led the Browns to a 9-win season as their head coach. Seems like an impossible feat these days.
