So many things wrong with the Lions point to coaching, they would be dumb not to. If they can get a Dungy, Lovie Smith and even Gruden to come here he needs to be
Even Tomlin would be an upgrade if the Steelers do fire him, Jack Del Rio would be a decent replacement too.If the choices are NFL retreads or college coaches, even if it's a successful college coach I'd keep Schwartz unless he really has lost the lockerroom with these "ain't scared" comments. This team needs a coach with NFL experience and if possible come from a great NFL coaching pedigree tree.

Preach my nikka. I'd prefer a defensive coach though. I'd love for Lovie to come here. Gruden is never leaving MNF. Dungy is never leaving SNF. Mike Tomlin would be chin checking nikkas in the locker room. That said, a defense coach doesn't fix Stafford's flaws. We go as far as our QB and as was shown, he is second to last in completion percentage. We should have had this division sewn up, and fighting for a first round bye. I was watching the Steelers/Bengals yesterday and they got us listed "In The Hunt" with all the other busta squads while the Bears are in the lead, at least for now. Even if we win this division, the point of the matter is that is shouldn't have come to this. We had a two game lead and it's gone, fukking gone. 
.............So everyone, from William Ford on down needs to be fukking gone.

Its time to fire him anyway .. Schwartz took'em as far as he can take them. He made them tough but he didnt give them a winning additude . Watching the post game interviews when they lose is basically him and stafford like =

Detroit should win tonight, but Detroit has a knack for losing games they shouldn't. I don't feel great about this one.

Lions need to hire someone who can correct Stafford's mechanics. He works hard but his inaccuracy downfield is stunning; hell he even misses easy screen passes. You can tell that his throwing mechanics are bent toward throwing at large targets, due to playing with Megatron. Even inaccurate balls can hit him due to his wingspan, as long as it's not behind him. But that doesn't work when throwing a screen pass to an RB, or hitting a slot WR down field for a bomb. He constantly overthrows people downfield, wide open throws that a Brees or Manning would effortlessly complete.
I get the impression Schwartz and the offensive OC aren't saying shyt to Stafford about this. It's like they're babying a rookie QB, but dude is a vet now. Favre played very sloppy with side arm throws too and lots of INTs, but he also hit people down field. He also made tons of big plays. It seems to me that most of Stafford's big plays are screen plays that catch the defense off guard or jump ball throws to a stationary Megatron. How many times does he hit Megatron in stride outside of short slant passes?

The only way Jim and Martin get fired is if playing Min is a "win and in" situation and they lose, which is highly possible....
