Stafford is one ugly SOB. Inbred looking sucker.

The worst thing to happen to Stafford was getting Megatron. Dude repeatedly forces the ball when he shouldn't. It also happens to be the best thing to happen to him as well.

With the talent they have in Detroit, there's no way that team should be .500. Awful coaching.

On defense, the line is pretty much set and Tulloch and Levy are good. They could probably upgrade the LDE spot (why'd they let Avril go?) and everyone in the secondary needs to go. At least 9 dome games a season (8 home and 1 in MIN) and that's not a bad situation for a new head coach to walk into. |

I just watched that replay - man that kick was incredible.
I'm sure most of you have played some ball, did any of you bother to stand at the 40 yard line and look at the goalposts? The damn things look about as wide as a postage stamp. It's absolutely unbelievable that someone can kick a friggen football 60 yards away and get them through those things. And when you look at the make, he was literally less than a foot away from the right upright and maybe 3 feet above the crossbar. You couldn't tuck that thing in any closer than that.

The guy who called the game tonight wouldn't be a bad choice for Detroit.

I think you want a guy who will still run a Coryell offense, but with coaches that actually pay attention to fundamentals. Detroit has terrible fundamentals and discipline.

He favors more of a pro-set, play action heavy downfield passing attack. Off the board, maybe take a look at David Shaw. Stafford's an old-school, Drew Bledsoe type of immobile, rocket armed pocket passer. I'm not sure he has the accuracy/timing/intelligence for a Coryell offense. But if you set him up in a system that relies on basic pro-sets and power running that opens passing lanes downfield, he could be damn dangerous. I just don't think he's a smart enough QB for Ehardt Perkins, Coryell, WCO or any of the more complicated offensive schemes.
