KDawg Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Remember when Jim Fassell was our head coach and it was done? I do. When was he our actual head coach again? **** happens, folks.

I think that's the only time in NFL history a near fan revolt caused a team to not hire a coach. Of course we ended up with Jimmy Zorn instead.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatNFLChick Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 I just want to make sure I have this right. Johnson had an offensive line loaded with 1st round picks, a 1st round running back, a #1 pick at QB, a stud at TE and nobody is questioning if he's a good head coach or if its just the talent around him? Everyone has just determined that he's great and really wants him here right? He's only been a coordinator for 2 years and showed significant progress from his 1st year to his 2nd? Just making sure I have this correct for when I see "Daniels had great WRs and talent around him" said by the same people all in on Johnson who has an absurd amount of talent on his offense. Anyway, its likely Johnson and I'm good with it. He's not my first choice but was high on my list. I hope he puts a good staff together. I don't know what kind of connections he has but building a good roster of coaches is going to be super important (especially the d coordinator) 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VaK9Trainer Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 I think its certainly conceivable that it may be a done deal but they arent allowed to announce it yet. Johnson has had an interview, albeit a virtual one, but theres nothing that says that they couldn't hire him off of that. It may be looked at as a bit of a "quickie" hire but I'm sure that Harris and his staff did there homework and identified who they wanted and any interview they had was more of a formality. I may be wrong but thats certainly how it may have played out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't truly know. We are all guesstimating that with Maye's strengths, the perfect match would be Maye, including me. Let's see how it works out. BTW, there are several Lion OL that are up for free agency. Maybe we bring a couple over. It's so important to Ben Johnson's scheme and along with Fraley teaching it the other FA OL, if we sign them in FA can teach it too. Just a thought. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boston skins fan Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 So i was bored last night and was on YouTube and found Inside the lion's den. basically, a documentary about the lions off season. If your bored and have the time give it a watch. The synergy between Owner/GM/Coach is incredible and has my mouth watering that that can be built here. Hamp is involved in everything but defers to Holmes and Campbell with football maters. in the draft room but let Holmes do his thing. Holmes conferring with Cambell and getting his opinion. Its what ive dreamt of for years here. Number one thing that should be considered is relationhip with Peters. If Peters thinks he can't be on the same page as Johnson then move on to the next. If its a 1A Johnson and 1B MacDonald and a better relationship was formed with MacDonald go with him. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had six first rounders and two second rounders on defense and we cashed those resources in for a top 32 defense. Top 32! And it’s also unfair that Ben Johnson had TWO first round QBs.

The great thing about a potential Johnson/Fraley matchup as head coach/OC duo is that it would be a perfect yin yang pairing. Johnson would be the intellectual, compassionate and empathetic leader, ie the good cop. While Fraley plays the crucial role of the physical in your face grit, grime, and spit type of enforcer, ie the bad cop. Kind of like-- dare I say it-- Gibbs and Bugel. I feel good football times are coming boys and girls, good times are coming. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel good football times are coming boys and girls, good times are coming. Yeah I really dig their chemistry. I just hope Campbell is willing to let Fraley go. He might promote Fraley to OC himself to replace Johnson. But I also get the sense that Campbell is the kind of guy that wouldn't be an obstacle to letting his coaches pursue their dreams and ambitions. OL coach is probably the 2nd most important position coach after QB coach. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he can really stop Johnson as it would be a promotion for Fraley and I don't see Campbell doing that to his OC, Johnson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
