Here's what I'd worry about if I were a Lions fan:
Defensive Coordinator - Gunther Cunningham (hasn't coordinated a good D since 1997)
Linebackers - Matt Burke (Has 6 years NFL experience in Quality Control and Administrative Assistance)
Defensive Assistant - Don Clemons (Has been with the Lions for 25 years)
Defensive Line - Bob Karmelowicz (Coached KC's wonderful defensive lines up to 2005, after which he moved on to the DL coach for Houston's 24th ranked D in 2006, whereupon he was moved to Special Assistant to the Head Coach for 2007-08)
Assistant Defensive Line - Kris Kocurek (1st year in the NFL)
Assistant Secondary - Daron Roberts (3rd year in NFL, spent previous 2 years as a volunteer on Chiefs defensive staff)
Secondary - Tim Walton (1st year in NFL)
I don't know if they were just looking for lack of experience or what, but from what I have seen out of Gunther, this is not something I'd be excited about if this were his staff here. He and Schwartz are probably going to have their fingers in everything out of necessity, and I'm not so sure that's a good idea...
