So not only is he a team killer but a front office killer too. That's a stellar resume for a guy who should take none of the blame. Again, if you name 6 players that worth being called the Lions core players to build around then you will have a point. Until then keep crying about a coach that can't seem to take your mediocre ass Lions anywhere…. Naming 6 or not has nothing to do with whether or not he's a bad coach. He had Stafford, Calvin, Levy, Slay, Suh, Ansah, Robinson, and arguably Whitehead/Reid/Quin. Knowing at least one of the big three had to go due to contracts there's more than six. He had talent in Indy too. Next.

www.forbes.com/sites/brandonkatz/2016/10/11/nfls-monday-night-football-sets-record-low-in-ratings-for-espn-advertisers-worried/#240a73641d37Five weeks through the season and the league’s ratings problem is only getting worse, which should have Roger Goodell and company worried when it comes to their precious advertising dollars. Back in early September, MNF posted its lowest numbers ever (8.3 rating) for a Week 2 game since ESPN acquired the rights in 2006. Then, going against the first presidential debate late last month, Monday Night Football set an all-time ratings low with barely 8 million total viewers. Now, last night’s matchup between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Carolina Panthers has scored MNF‘s lowest Week 5 ratings in ESPN history.

It's funny, I have watched pretty much zero non-Lion games and I'm sure why. But it must not be just me.

I'd watch but I still don't have tv service. That doesn't explain the huge number of missed ratings but I think a lot of people are tired of the leagues shit. Deflategate, concussions, pregame protests, horrible officiating, and the dumb Mickey Mouse shit that gets called for penalties are all major reasons I'm sure.

That and how mediocre half the teams are every year. Some teams like the Browns, Lions, Jacksonville, and what it took the Bengals almost two decades to climb out of. In a league designed for parity you have historically fraudulent teams. It's a crap product.

Hopefully they continue to tank and Goodell gets kicked to the curb

Who is the OC in LA? Case Keenam 20/22 for 256 yards and 2 TDs in the third quarter?
Granted it's against the Lions but still.

Not sure how they're 3-3 given how bad the defense has looked.

They have 1 NFL Starting caliber 4-3 LB right now, and that's Whitehead. I said 2 years ago that Kyle Van Noy is a 3-4 Edge rusher and I stand by that. He is lost in pass coverage. If Levy ever comes back that will help a little bit, by the solution to that problem isn't on the roster right now.

With van noy and Tomlinson they are basically playing with ten guys on both sides of the ball.

@billsimmons This is like a January playoff game in minus-10 degree weather only they're in Arizona.
What a terrible game

So much for the opinion that the Pack was done. Rodgers surgically carved up that Philly D tonight.

A healthy Cam benched and Derek Anderson starts the game? Ron Rivera's decision?
