DET hires Dan Campbell as HC, Aaron Glenn as DC, Anthony Lynn as OC

I don't mind the Lynn hire as a talent developer, pre-game planner, and people person - he excels there.   But DET had better be hiring a game manager coach, because Lynn is pretty much bottom-3 in that department, and frankly, he showed no improvement over 3 years.

Game management coach? Isn’t that Campbell’s job? Lynn shouldn’t have to do as much game management as OC. He should concentrate on growing in that area since he barely did it for one year.

Yeah a lot of teams where the HC isn’t an O “guru” they let the OC call the shots full-time.   That can’t happen here.   If it’s Campbell, great.   Just can’t be Lynn making all the calls.

You can still call plays offensively as OC and have the HC be the one responsible for the game management IMO. Campbell should still be the guy who is going to call timeouts and challenges. Otherwise what is Campbell doing besides give ridiculous press conferences?

Biting kneecaps.  
 

(I actually think he’s on the right path with his system comments, FTR).

The Lions are hiring ex-Browns and Chiefs GM John Dorsey away from Philly. His title will be Senior Personnel Executive, and he should be a good resource for new GM Brad Holmes. Dorsey's been planning on this for a couple weeks.

Deal's not done yet, should be in place mid-week.

This is a great get for the Lions to help Holmes maneuver his way as GM. 
 

SPE- John Dorsey

GM- Brad Holmes

AGM- Ray Agnew

HC- Dan Campbell

OC- Anthony Lynn

DC- Aaron Glenn
