Bucs fan here -

Man - this is becoming too common. Saying congrats to OTHER NFL teams when
they get our coaches. At least we kept Monte Kiffen.

Rod was our D-Line coach, he rebuilt Simeon Rice's career. Expect the Lions
to be runnign a version of the Tampa 2 defense. I'm sorry but I don't know
the Lions personel that well - the Tampa 2 is a team defense built on speed.
4 linemen need to provide QB pressure - LB's need to be fast and DBs smart.

I figure give it two seasons for the Lions defense to break the top 15 in
overall defense. As for your offense - GULP!

You have WR's and no QB - Do you want Brian Greise?

No. We could have had him, but instead decided to go for that stud,
Charlie Batch.

Brian Greise??? At this point I'd take Bob Greise. I wonder if he can
still throw?

Just as long as they don't end up like Don McCafferty...

Well, Bailey and Lehman are pretty fast LBs. I think Holmes is a plodder
in the middle, but he plugs the run OK. Rush linemen aren't all that good,
Rogers is quick but Wilkinson is slow.

DBs, other than Bly (and a lot of us would even question that), they aren't
all that good....

It won't matter. The lions are a perpetually losing franchise and no
coach is going to change that, ESPECIALLY under the current management.

6-10 next year (2006-2007). You heard it here first.

I suspect that you are the kind of guy that would appeal to some of the
Detroit sportswriters.

Good Luck... to you Gators this week-end. I think that it is going to be a very close game, perhaps too close to call right now. The Dawgs have a lot of injuries (no excuse because you guys probably do too) so I am definitely concerned with how they will come out an

Good Luck Bears! I will be cheering for the Bears to beat the viqueens on Sunday. Green Bay needs all the help it can get, and the Bears have been very kind this year to the green and gold. Basspike

Class of 99 QBs Interesting that of the 2 guys the Browns really dithered over before picking Couch, one is now a backup, and the other (Akili Smith) is working to become the 3rd stringer in Green Bay. In retrospect, one has to wonder what they didn't see in McNabb and C
