The Troll Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Can't find a link anywhere, but it says it in the corner on ESPNEWS. ----------------- Pretty surprising that the Lions choose to make this move immediately. This is very good for them, IMO. The entire time I was watching the game, I was in bewilderment that "Mooch" still has a job. From abandoning a successful run game early to shelving Harrington for Garcia when Harrington was playing solid. I'm glad to see another coach that lives and dies by the pussified West Coast offense go down in flames. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R44 Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Looks like it's possible..... http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20051124/SPORTS19/311240001 Can't say I really feel sorry for a lot of these coaches -- Herm and Mooch included.......I'm sure Mooch has cut short the childhood aspirations of playing in the NFL for dozens of players that he cut or waived. Cutting players is just a business decision, right Mooch and Herm? Well, so is firing coaches.....And, Mooch made a ton of money in Detroit to boot.....and he did nothing. P.S: Matt Millen should be out the door, too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P.S: Matt Millen should be out the door, too Mariucci hasn't done much, I agree, but I think Millen should get the axe first. He's been a joke for a GM since he's been there.

aec4 Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 I just posted this on ganggreen... What do you guys think: -------- I'm not one of these "Herm must go" guys, because I think they deserve a second shot with this offensive coordinator after all the injuries. However, if you are inclined to make a change, what would you guys think of Mariucci? I know he's not doing awesome in Detroit, but I think that's the lack of a QB that fits his system. Pennington, if healthy, would be perfect for his system. Mariucci is a championship coach, but some may argue that he didn't do it with his players, but instead did it with Seifert's players. I'm curious to what people think. I'm not necessarily on board, I just wanted to open up the debate. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2236033 (One note, he said last time, with time left on his contract after getting fired from SF, that the only reason he came back was because it was his hometown team. He may be inclined to sit a year and collect his money.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gun Of Bavaria Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 The Detroit media has Mariucci 1/2 way into the grave right now. http://www.detnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20051125/OPINION03/511250390 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt39 Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Nice post aec! Hopefully this move by the Lions sends Woody a message. "Everything that ends, ends badly, or else it wouldnt end." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4HCrew Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Millen is a complete clown and gave SM nothing to work with. Granted they are underachieving but geez they need a lot of help on the lines and he is drafting wrs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSJ Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 As a OC I would love if we got Mariuci as a HC I would puke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faba Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 This to me is not a surprise Lions have not made any progress with high draft picks with Millen and Marucci. Both should be released. Marucci is still living off Steve Young legacy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
