Skinsinparadise Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 (edited) 8 minutes ago, KDawg said: Well, Johnson removing himself does change the equation a bit. I wouldn't be surprised if they met with Slowik again. But I think we're going to go defensive HC now... which really boils my biscuits. A point being discussed on 106.7 and 980 is maybe Johnson wasn't the front runner for these two jobs post interviews. Like I mentioned earlier today, his personality doesn't come off the type to win an interview against more leader of men-dynamic types of personality. And if this team in particular is looking for leadership-motivational skills -- maybe Johnson wasn't going to get it so say you are out before you don't get the actual job. Keim mentioned the question is can Johnson command a room. Considering Slowik has arguably even bigger questions on that same point and there seems to be ZERO buzz about him as to this job even after his 2nd interview -- am guessing nope. But who knows? Will see. Edited January 30 by Skinsinparadise 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to see Slowik get more of a shake but there has to be a reason he's not, right? Yeah, I'm not the speculative type either. We really don't have any idea what goes on behind closed doors. Doesn't feel like we're fighting for scraps yet, but this is a blow to the excitement and hope of the start of the Harris era. Nothing is guaranteed, however. Whoever they pick might excel. Johnson may never amount to anything. Just has to play out. now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCF Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 (edited) If this is about money or us not wanting him, I'd like to hear Peters come out and say we decided to go with someone else. Only because this clown either wasted our time by leading us on and losing out on other potential candidates, or we weren't interested and he is now trying to make it sound like we lost out on him.

He might not of had this job. we don't know what is going on behind the scenes. But perhaps he didn't want to be here.. he chose to bet on himself and try to get a ring with the Lions. Time will tell if it was the right move for him. Lions could very well fall off next year and he might not even get a HC interview. Will see.

It’s a shame because the Lions won’t be back to that height next year. But he’ll end up in Philly or Dallas or something 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commander202 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 1 minute ago, BatteredFanSyndrome said: That’s disgusting, and I’m not insane enough to believe EB remains as OC. But I’m sure there’s some truth to how this impacts filling out a staff. Idk man , Ron wanted Howell to start and our OL stunk. We saw what happened when Brisett played I think it’s a little unfair to judge Eric B. It took Kyle and Mcvay another year to develop a good offense and it takes time . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're taking this personally. Lol We dont need to hear Peters say anything. We arent stock holders, he doesnt owe us any explanation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to see Slowik get more of a shake but there has to be a reason he's not, right? He already got a 2nd interview. And Peters worked with him in SF and can talk to a million people who know him at SF. I think Slowik might be the most digested of all of these candidates. Not saying he's out. I got no idea. But he's the dude who up to now has continued to be omitted as a serious candidate. But will see. Feels like its McDonald versus Quinn if judging purely on buzz.

We've got so many opposing tweets from football pundits about him being a lock or not. He got so many interviews just to stay in Detroit 🤔 Let's move on asap, I'm confident this FO will find the right guy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
