Fire Steve Mariucci

Let's see...the offensive line couldn't even hold back the French Army, so Mooch decides to take out Joey Harrington and Kevin Jones for Jeff Garcia and Shawn Bryson/Artose Pinner? None of these 3 have any future with the Lions organization while the previous 2 do. Just play them and let them learn. Harrington isn't the guy dropping all the passes and he isn't the reason he only has half a second to throw. Meanwhile, Jones only averaged 8 yards a carry today, so he needs to sit.

Alright, I've already thought and said more about Detroit Lion football than anyone outside of Michigan really needs to. Happy T-day.

Update: Jones left with a thigh injury in the 3rd, but it's still inexplicable as to why he only got 4 carries in the first half.

Update #2: Well that was quick: http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2236033

Great Blog! Like you, i gave mccourt the benefit of the doubt until he canned Depo and i am also a lowly Detroit Lions follower.

A defensive minded head coach would be nice.

Thanks jay. I'm actually a Browns fan (even worse), but have been following Detroit because of Kevin Jones. Football Prospectus talked him up pretty good and I have him on my fantasy team and wondered why he is having the season he's having. After watching Thursday, I got a glimpse at some of the reasons why.
