There is no one on here who are wanna be coaches. We are just people who watch the entire game and can see the flaws week in and week out is all. This team cannot wait for a diamond in the rough although I do think we found him in Reiff. Logan has got to go he does nothing absolutely nothing. Try Thomas back there see what he can do. That decision is not to hard for any coach and staff it is simple relpace him with someone who can stay afoot.

Not to blunt to all of you want a be coaches, but the staff has to make hard choices everyday. So let them do they’re job. I know as a Lions fan that is the hardest thing for all of us to do and maybe there is a diamond in the rough in the mix of it all, WE as fans need to have faith. ( As hard as that is looking up from the bottom again.) I believe in my team an if you are true fans you should too.

I agree that Logans lack of performance could be a byproduct of the kickoff line being pushed up but look at the other return guys on other teams they are still getting yardage. There were a few times this season let alone last season that he should have broke for either a touchdown or significant yardage. The man falls over his own feet at times. He is not what they thought he was going to be. He just is not. Sims and Reiff have made the line better and I feel Reif should be in there every play, since the Lions are so stubborn about having a Fullback which this team does need. Of course it will be the same crap next draft and free agency. The Lions will take who they think is the best player and they will not draft for their needs. They will also take everyone elses garbage during free agency. Same old until they clean house top to bottom. Management and coaches.

Logan’s lack of performance is a byproduct of the kickoff line being pushed up. He barely gets a shot at returning anything anymore. I get his punt return numbers aren’t good either but once again, look at how much space he’s getting, barely anything. That being said he may still be the odd one out as his salary is still based on being a solid return man which he was for both the Steelers and the Lions not too long ago. I don’t agree with letting Kevin Smith go as he is a do it all back that has played well for us. Let’s face it, when we drafted Smith our O-Line was no where near as good as it’s been for the last 2 years. Rob Sims has made the line better and Reiff was a great pickup. It’s a shame it’s too late to get something for Avril though before the trade deadline. That one hurts. And it will hurt more when we go through the same crap next offseason taking time and focus away from actually getting better.

This is stupids move the coaches have done since cutting Fonze the first time.A Good family man and role model.Great all around ball player. If Swartz cant make better personal decisions than this he will be fired.That means Gunny is gone also.

Ah yes the head hunters our out in full force! well how about Suh he has played any thing like he did last year! the lions were smart to not sign him I do not if we could even get a draft pick for him! he is resting on his past performance! like last year and he is not playing to well and i do not think he will on our team next year then again we may be bale to get him for a song! nah he would not even that at this point no he will go to another team and play like a wild man! will see who gets cut and get williams on the field so if he can run the ball on kick offs and he is a receiver let CJ,Broyles and titus on the field and put williams in there for 5 receiver set with a running back with stafford and throw the ball on first and second down let cj and broyles get the first down and run when they gear to stop the pass then run it that is stafford speciality so let him do it and go to the two minute offense at the strat of the game and run the no huddle on every down in the first and second quarter and get stafford throwing early and often so he will get started sooner then the second half !

I agree with must folks. We all the playable secondary men. Sleep walking in the secondary does not cut it. Whoever the front office puts on the field is the new story. Three home games in a row. As a fan I have to cheer the Lions on. Disappointing at times as they may be, Go Lions.

Would have rather seen Lacey cut than Smith.

Stefan logan is a no brainer to me that should be released. He has been flat, and has nothing to realy show for the season other then fumbles. Smith should be kept as he has multiple skills that help out, such as pass catching, blocking, and at times runing the ball. Loagn has well?
