2.  What was this I was hearing about friction between the head coach and the players?  I know Darius Slay seemed to have problems with him.  Was that limited to him, or were there other players that have problems?

3.  What are your general thoughts of the Lions prospects this year?

Nost Jaguars fans are looking at Detroit as one of the winnable games on the schedule.

I share that view, but I do not chalk it up as an easy win by any stretch.  Stafford, Golliday, Swift/Johnson and Hockenson  have the potential to make us have a long day defensively.

I currently live in Michigan. There's never much enthusiasm for the lion cubs. Queue up another mediocre, non-playoff season, with Patricia getting canned. The roster has talent in spots, but so does every team's roster in their division (same goes for the NFL). Vikings will run away with the division. Bears, Packers, and Lions will all be mediocre non-contenders. Stafford and Chase Daniel are a good pairing. Both are exceptional at making a ton of money undeservedly. They should write a book together.
