“If you’re a teacher and half the kids are flunking your exams, you’ve got to find a way to teach the kids better . . .”

Coach Crossman, these are not kids, they are the best in their profession getting paid A LOT of money.

I would personally like to thank you for writing an article about the Lions that points out a specific area of concern without bashing individuals or the entire organization or going for the cheap laugh.
This problem would plaque any SC coordinator having to throw guys out there on special teams when that’s not their strength.
That being said, I believe it’s time for the Lions to find a place kicker who can put the ball out of the end zone (or at least 8 or 9 yards deep) on a consistent basis.

How can a team with so much talent be so horrible?

We are going to wait until he enters a drive thru naked, then we will make a change.

That injury excuse is BS. They always give up big returns. I was at Ford Field when they let Ginn’s PR get the Niners in position for Akers’ GWFG.

Logan is mediocre. They signed Osgood and there is no ROI whatsoever. The secondary is suspect but at least there’s a chance at improvement. Their special teams continue to blow chunks.
