Disagree. Although he has made some questionable decisions, he has been at the head of a turnaround for a team that hadn't won a playoff game since 1991.....and his Lion just went to the NFC championship game last season and almost won

This team has taken on his identity and is ascending....straight up.
due to a treasure trove of premium picks.

I’ve been asking this for 20 seasons maybe longer , every team that’s one of Super Bowl. What’s the one player that they mentioned during the game the most. Defensive tackle Wilfork, Aaron Donald,.
And DT Chris Jones arguably made the most important play of last year's SB.

Our current DTs gets delivered into the lap of our linebackers but make up for it by seldom pushing the pocket into the quartebacks face......True balance

A FO still has to to make the CORRECT picks......hows Mazi and Schoonmaker doing?
of course (FO not hc) and neither mazi or schoon were top 5-10 picks like the lions have been blessed with. i've become a campbell fan and think he's a perfect fit for detroit. i just don't think he's the catalyst for their resurgence.

for sure we need better DT's but how in the hell can we not get our DE's to hold the edge when the other teams runs the same stretch play over and over and over they just kept crashing instead of straffing down the line to push it towards the sideline..hell #11 couldnt wait to get inside it was the dumbest thing ive seen ..well since the GB game...Im guessing the NO OC was like "Holy crap these DE's are really gonna keep crashing! ...Run it again!!"
Get better DT's. That's the answer, as it makes everything better.

BJ Raji singlehandedly destroyed PITT's D so Aaron could win his one super bowl.
