      Campbell can promote him to assistant HC and give Duce a different title cuz nobody will be calling to get permission to hire Duce .. I'm under the impression that this staff in on a mission to stay together as a whole until they make history in Detroit.... next season will be a different story of who will be head coaching prospects for the NFL.

      Shiela has to get check book out, give both coordinators a sweet 3 year deal and yes make ben johnson assistant head coach...after 3 years and 2 superbowls our coordinators can ask their price...not sure why Ben johnson would want to leave with only one year of experience, "a nice 3 year contract" for all kinds of head coach pressure...also find it hard to believe a team would make him head coach with only one year of coordinator experience...but after making history in Detroit...for sure !

      That would be Kool... If he's interested in coaching? They do have him in the organization as a advisor.. so, if he continues to maintain that position and if they do happen to get a SB win in the next three years.. then Barry and Spielman get a ring.

    Love the breakdown! They were lethal.. I wonder what offensive pieces they look for in the draft and free agency.. would love it if they can get Jamaal back.. he’s a hammer on the field and a great leader.. they need another stud o-lineman-guard.. but I think they’ll seek immediate contributors on defense first… but the way Holmes and his team have been drafting.. I have, for the first time in my life as a lions fan, 100% confidence. They’ve built a great foundation where players want to play… not retire early or demand trades from.

    According to the most plugged in people in local Detroit sports media who do have connections with Allen Park Ben Johnson isn't going anywhere after this year.
    He will take interviews for preparation/experience but will stay on to learn what it is to be a head coach under Dan the way Sean Payton groomed Dan in New Orleans. It should be kept in mind that this is Ben Johnson's first year as a coordinator.
    The culture and coaching system in Detroit was built by Dan with the idea of attracting the brightest minds in football by being a machine that teaches and prepares them for future success elsewhere as either position to coordinator or coordinator to head coach.

So much nicer than all the games I’ve watched, hoping the loss won’t be too embarrassing , or when they’re finally leading, wondering when they’ll blow their lead and by how much. Hopefully, next year they don’t wait until the last chance to start playing well.

And he's probably gonna be a great one, so it's a fleeting, tight window we'll have him on Campbell's staff. Not looking forward to tryin to replace him. That'll be a sad day.
