No as a Skins fan stuck in Detroit, we are not the Lions yet, but the events that have transpired in the last several weeks have me worried that we may be heading in that direction. We played inspired ball for 4 weeks this season, but came up short against a better team in Seattle. The emotion of losing ST let the guys play above themselves til the big dance started, where real good teams shine. If the state of the NFC wasn't so bad, we would have stayed home this season. Hiring assistants before hiring the HC will only make sense if Snyder and the FO already have their man. If not, you are putting the new HC in a box by not letting him pick his own crew and letting open the distinct possiblity that he doesn't gel with his staff. I hope that Snyder already having his man is the case, or this might be another messed up post Gibbs era. Should have kept Marty maybe.
