    Thought this was a crazy stat as well....

    Lions have hired and fired 12 head coaches since 1965 (not including Schwartz). None of the 12 ever got another head coaching job.

    They should fire the entire team with the exception of Megatron, Bush, and a few others. These guys are undisciplined, and they don't learn from their mistakes. The collective IQ of this team is at an NFL low.

    It's coaching. Discipline and learning starts from the top down. Schwartz is a spoiled little kid, not a leader of men.

    49ers OC Greg Roman looks like an excellent HC candidate for the Lions, he's got a great record against the NFC North.

    They need someone that can sort out Matthew Stafford,he did lose them alot of games in my opinion.

    Yep, that's the amazing thing during this meltdown. The D actually stepped up, but the offense took 2 steps back.

    Interesting phenomenon. Detroit being automation city, they seem to hire middle-manager types rather than leaders.
