Sorry, Patricia, but the Giants have zeroed in on Pat Shurmur.

Travis ain't the only one with a pit. The Lions have an even bigger one filled with the promising careers of coaches past.

People on twitter are jerking off at some video that is posted of Patricia breaking down the defensive play call in the Super Bowl where Malcolm Butler intercepted Wilson to seal the game.

I don't think people understand the role of a head coach in the NFL. If Patricia is that in the weeds in Detroit, he's not going to be a good head coach.

I'll bet that in three years his w-l record isn't better than Caldwell's.

I'll bet in 3 years we've played in 2 super bowls.

Yeah, but I like the part about "Matt Patricia is one of the smartest men on God’s green earth" even if it came from a scUMer. It will take a true genius to break the Lions free of their near 60 years of suckdom.

If Patricia is all he is claimed to be, I expect nothing less than 10-6 and a first round playoff win next season.

I know that I sort of used this joke already, but if he's any kind of genius he waits for a better opportunity instead of making the biggest mistake of his life.

I mean it's not out of the realm of possibility, and I hate (abhor, really) using this comparison but it's not that much different than hiring Dantonio. You go from a dynasty of mediocrity to being successful with the right hire.

Still, we're talking about the Lions.

Good point. Just seems really fucking stupid for them to create a graphic with Lions colors, but not change the logo on his hat.

Patricia introduced today. Cut his beard! Now the magic is gone.

He will not confirm whether Jim Bob is staying on as OC. I hope he goes.
