TheFunPolice Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 (edited) Campbell, Glenn and Hilliard running the show in Detroit? That would at least make the Lions interesting because of the 3 former players I remember watching all in prominent roles angle. But the fact that they chose Campbell as a HC AND gave him a 6 year contract is absolutely insane. 23 hours ago, leh-nerd skin-erd said: I thought he said kneecaps and ballsacks. LOL I'm just imagining the WGR shows after this presser if this was one of the awful coach hirings during the drought era. The guy sounds like an imbecile. All right? all right? Plus he drops an S bomb in his opening presser. Edited January 22, 2021 by TheFunPolice 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if the NFL may tweak the head coaching staff rule and not allow new hires until after the Super Bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFunPolice Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Just now, Doc Brown said: They may have not wanted to wait and miss out on coordinators. Might have helped us keep Daboll. I wonder if the NFL may tweak the head coaching staff rule and not allow new hires until after the Super Bowl. They should. Just wait a few weeks. It makes no difference. Plus, the NFL could get a couple of post-Super Bowl weeks of news cycle out of it. No coaching hires or interviews until 12PM Wednesday after the Super Bowl. That gives a couple of days for the game to dominate the sports media, then a total feeding frenzy for the middle weeks of February while coaches interview. A normally slow time for the NFL becomes yet another prime time part of the show. Coordinators aren't distracted. Everyone is available. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL I'm just imagining the WGR shows after this presser if this was one of the awful coach hirings during the drought era. The guy sounds like an imbecile. All right? all right? Plus he drops an S bomb in his opening presser. I know it's been said here--it reminded me of a Rex type speech. I was sort of hoping that Rex in his reincarnation here would hit his stride--correct the things he did wrong in prior opportunities, be humbled somewhat (somewhat--it was Rex after all), grow as a coach and in that regard, it was a fun presser. You would have thought he'd have a chip onhis shoulder, a burning desire to prove them all wrong, and you certainly could see how players would take to his approach. He's funny in his own way. "Now let's go have a g-d snack" is about as funny as it gets. This guy though, it seems like a pretty black and white scenario. He's going to be who he's going to be, and we've seen him under the best case scenario until he starts winning. If he turns the franchise around, awesome. How much leeway do you give a guy who threatens to chomp on kneecaps? If they go backwards...yeesh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFunPolice Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 I could be wrong, but his game plan seems to be "get in there and stick em!" The trouble is, everyone in the NFL is tough. Smart will beat "tough and physical" most times, because all NFL players are tough dudes. I just imagine Green Bay scheming up plays to get guys wide open and Detroit being determined to smash the ball up the middle, and if that doesn't work take a kneecap.

However, that presser was just painful to watch... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LabattBlue Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Wow...not a good first look for Campbell. Is that the same spiel he gave during his interview? If so, the Lions should have ended the interview right then and there, and moved on to other candidates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommonCents Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Wow. I heard a lot about his presser but didn’t watch it because I thought people were exaggerating. That thing was like a bad comedic skit. I feel bad for Lions fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
