I missed the story the other day but Ben Johnson, our OC, has said he will be with the team next year. That is GREAT news. It would be cool if we could get Byron Leftwich on our staff somehow and have him to replace Johnson for when he does move on for a HC job.

It is being reported that assistant head coach/RBs coach Duce Staley is leaving the Lions to join the staff in Carolina. A loss for us if true. Hopefully we find a decent replacement.

The Lions made Dre Bly their new cornerbacks coach. I have a feeling that will end up being a great signing.

A question for my fellow Lions fans, do you feel comfortable with Jared Goff being our QB for at least the next couple years?
I know I am. I think the offensive weapons around him will be even better next year and with a better D he will not have to be playing from behind and/or gunslinging at much. We can think about drafting a QB in later rounds this year or near the top next if we want to start planning for the future but no need to rush. It would be hard to find a rookie QB that can play close to his level right off the bat.

Plus, I think the whole team is behind him. On a side note, eff Rodgers and his "darkness retreat". Obviously, we have done permanent psychological damage to him. What a complete d-bag of a human being.

Sauce Gardner won Defensive Rookie of the Year. He had 2 interceptions. One less than Hutchinson.
No knock-on Gardner but one of the biggest reasons he won is because he plays in the NYC market.

Agreed. You can take solace in that Hutchinson won the Pepsi ROTY award, VOTED ON BY FANS and not 50 NFL media people. ROAR!!!!!!

Just 11 more days till free agency begins. I have decided this year I will take calls from any team, not just hold out for the Lions to call me. I can fill any need a team may have. WR. CB. Kick returner. Tackle dummy.

I have read some thoughts that the Carolina Panters might trade up to get the Lions pick at 6 for their pick at 9. I would have been fine with that as we would still get a good defensive player and extra picks. But that is out the window as the Panters just traded with Chicago for #1 overall. Oh well. It is still possible someone might be willing to trade for our pick at 6.
