They win the Ravens game if the refs do their job and call delay of game. The Vikings game was another miracle finish.

You can't with a straight face say anybody is winning games with this heinous roster. Like I said before, name more than five players who would get regular playing time ANYWHERE else in the league right now.

You just said they could’ve won twice. Which one is it?

I really don't like how Campbell handles shyt. That report could be bullshyt but we've heard him dog out players by name to the media, including Goff. The way he talks about how bad the team is playing it's as if this isn't Year One rebuild. I get he wants to be the no bullshyt, politically incorrect coach we've wanted but that shyt doesn't matter when you're bad. This year should have been entirely about getting the new guys playing time, finding out what holes need to be plugged etc. Instead week after week we're talking about players or effort and Campbell is leading the charge.

I'm not saying he should be fired. He'll be coaching here for awhile. But it seems like a lot of the goodwill he generated with the players during the offseason is gone. We'll know for sure soon but I think more blowouts are coming. And I won't be watching. Initially I thought I'd be watching to see the young guys but some of them aren't even getting playing time, and others (Okudah) are out for the season.

I said the same thing a few weeks ago and people told me him airing out players in the media was a good thing. Funny :skip:

Crazy thing is last week people were praising the hell out of Campbell. Coach there ass off to compete with Rams. The team always plays hard and doesn’t give up. Best 0-7 team ever blah blah blah

One ass whopping and now he’s terrible and needs to go:heh:

people so reactionary. :heh:

He is the coach. He will be for at least another year. Accept it.

If he’s not who are they bringing in? Nobody with options would take this job knowing they could be let go by the worst franchise in the league after 1 year of a rebuild.

The earliest he gets fired is head 3. That’s if they make progress in year 2 and regress year 3.

imagine walking into your job without the tools you need to succeed and getting fired for it when everyone in the building planned for there to be no tools :dead:

edit. Not talking about you. I agree with your point

2022 NFL Mock Draft: Kayvon Thibodeaux goes No. 1 to Detroit Lions, Ole Miss QB Matt Corral lands in Washington at No. 5 | NFL Draft | PFF



1. DETROIT LIONS: EDGE KAYVON THIBODEAUX, OREGON

The 2021 quarterback class is such a mixed bag that Detroit looks much better off addressing the position with its second first-rounder than passing up on the other elite talents at the top of the draft. Thibodeaux has 25 pressures in his four healthy performances this year after spraining his ankle early in the season.

30. DETROIT LIONS (VIA LAR): QB DESMOND RIDDER, CINCINNATI
The Lions take their shot at the quarterback position here. Ridder may not have the stats of the other top quarterbacks, but he’s overcome one of the worst offensive lines in football this season. He possesses serious tools and a high-level pocket presence already

Lions need to go ahead and claim OBJ. They are #1 on waiver wire. Raymond being your number 1 wr is embarrassing. Career practice squad player
Do they have cap space on the roster? Seriously, I have no idea.

Real talk though, they're probably gonna reach out and he's gonna balk at the idea of playing in a rebuild. Do you still bring him in as a GM?

They have so many poison pill contracts that I don't think they do. :snoop:

I'd kill to bring Odell in but they'd have to bench Goff because Odell might strangle him in the huddle.

So would I but he doesn't deserve this. He's done his time with Mayfield and Eli. He deserves to be with Lamar, Mahomes, Rogers, Allen, etc. If we don't grab him hopefully he falls someplace decent so it'll expose Baker. Dudes ain't it.
