NFL Black Monday Thread

Yep. I'm not mad at Johnson at all because unlike other candidates, he built his brand to basically choose his destiny and not having to end up in a messed up situation. Now, don't get me wrong; the best coaches are the ones that can get a messed up situation and be able to turn it completely around, and are usually the ones to garner the most respect. (I know I do). But there is nothing wrong with bypassing that.

I agree and disagree. The Lions have had an incredible bounty of picks from their own ineptitude and the Stafford trade. Holmes had done a very good job of drafting and has given Johnson a great OL and a plethora of offensive weapons. The question is, how much is it Johnson and how much is it the great OL and St. Brown , Williams, Gibbs , Montgomery and LaPorta? He even had Hockinson and Swift before those guys.

I'm with you, give me a guy that does more with less talent. That's why I'm not all google-eyed about Brady and some are. @ LSU he had maybe the best offense ever in college football and he was not even the play-caller. He goes to Car and bombs and gets fired. Now @ Buff he has maybe the best or at least a top 3 QB a top OL and some very good WRs and a very good TE and Cook .
