Not a whole staff full though, right?

Do you remember who they hired? I could think of one off the top of my head, Solari. Thats about it.

If Stafford wasn't hurt I bet Detroit would have won a few more games but it looks like they will luck out and get Suh now.
UGH.

How many "best prospect in 10 year" guys can they draft?
Bastards.

I believe a major contributor to Arizona's success is Kurt Warner. As soon as he came along, and started playing at a high level for them, they took off. Once he went down, things were a bit different.

But I think both teams, Detroit and Kansas City are in similar situations. Chiefs do have there share of young talent too. Don't kid yourself. They just often get criticize more than anything around here. If the Chiefs could have themselves a couple of good drafts they'll be making noise in a few years.
:facepalm:

Yeah, Stafford does have a lot of room to improve. He's 21 years old.

And of the Lions players I listed earlier, who on our roster would you rather have at their respective positions?

Matthew Stafford? Or Matt Cassel?

Calvin Johnson? Or Dwayne Bowe?

Kevin Smith? Or Jamaal Charles?

Ernie Sims? Or Mike Vrabel?

DeAndre Levy? Or Corey Mays?

Louis Delmas? Or John McGraw?

The Lions have a goddamn roster full of elite talent following years and years of high draft picks, so you'd think they should get better faster than KC. But of course they already should have gotten better than KC, so who the **** knows.

They need a GM like Pioli... But the fuckers aren't getting him!

I'll say it again, too: Losing is a CANCER. Even when you're good, when you've been on a losing team you start losing just because you think you're supposed to and you're used to it. This is what has happened to the Royals (in small part), but I digress: If you go in there and clean fucking house, you get that old attitude out of the locker room, and replace it with enthusiasm, excitement and hope.

This is why I think this win we had Sunday was beyond amazing. It would have been worth a lost in 5 draft picks, cause all these guys are going to go through the WHOLE offseason kinda cocky and feeling like they're a good fucking team.

Jamaal over Kevin Smith and we have Albert. Dorsey would fit in nice in Detroit.

Really, all of their elite talent has been drafted in the last 3 years.

All of our elite talent has been drafted in the last 3 years.

Yeah, they've sucked forever, but they just started pulling their heads out of their asses recently.

I want to see Jamaal for another season before I can take him over Smith.

I tend to think most of our elite talent is going to be drafted in the next 2 years. Starting with pick 5 and then wherever we pick after 7-9/8-8/9-7. Cupboard's pretty bare here as it stands.

Paul Hackett.

Jamaal just posted a better season this year than Kevin's rookie season.
Smith averaged less than 3.5 yards per carry this year.

He may prove to be the better long-term option because he's a bit sturdier than Charles, but as of right now? Charles for my money.

Three top 50 draft picks (one in the top 5) is AWESOME!!! We will be able to address so many needs on this team, and with high-prospect players. Plus, maybe we can finally start getting away from this second round curse we've had going on. We get two chances to redeem ourselves!

Theoretically.

I think Smith is an extremely underrated back - playing in Detroit means he's pretty much invisible to all but die-hards.

Jamaal's performed in EIGHT games - and I hope he can continue at this level - but let's not crown the kid just yet.

Both are young, both have a shit-ton of potential. I'm not sure I could pick one over the other just yet.

I'm on the Charles-is-****ing-good bandwagon. It'd be one thing if Jamaal merely had a very hot 8 game streak. Jamaal had that and more -- the best 8 game streak in NFL history (to begin as a starter).
