If he was competent dan Campbell would already be fired. He cost them the playoffs last year and the super bowl this year. Is what it is. Campbell will cost the team more losses. I feel terrible for the players, lions ownership has always been the reason for failure and nothing has changed.

He’s absolutely done a great job so far, but that doesn’t mean he shouldn’t be “questioned” ever again. That’s just blind faith without reason. If he has a terrible offseason, bad draft and FA decisions, you still just going to blindly believe? Lions should just announce him as GM for life?

We have a superstar front office led by a talent evaluating genius and a superstar coaching staff led by a leadership savant and a group of guys who understand how to develop that talent. I know that loss a couple of weeks ago hurt - but it will NOT be the peak of this team by any stretch. This franchise has never been in better hands, and I'm STOKED to see what they do in the next few months to add to the arsenal. Brad Holmes for LIFE. Dude is going to lead us to where we want this team to go.

[@user-lx1xi2vc8w]

You have tons right here! And we must not forget that We Lost That Game!

[@Dogasaurus]

Yes/no. There were alternatives to the choices that BH made that would have been reasonable, not just the click-baiting negativity of Carlos M & Dave B, et al. Parsons over Sewell, for example. Gibbs , for another; nobody with any sense thought he was going to bust, but will he be a viable 2nd contract guy after 4-5 years playing arguably the most violent position , the way another position might ? TBD. Snap judgments are foolish & lack of accountability among pundits AND fans is despicable, but so is giving up the right to question choices, roads not taken.
