Anyone that would say Mitchell was the worst QB for the Lions in the past 30 years obviously did not watch very much football. Mitchell was Moores qb when he set the reception record same year #19 threw for over 4500 yards, oh yah Perriman also had over 100 receptions that year as well pretty good for the worst qb for the worst team of the past 30 years. People just because some clown says something stupid you don’t have to jump on that bus as well. LIONS!

Attempted damage control. Awful thing to do Lomas and you deserve whatever happens to you!

Lomas Brown should not be fired………..his lack of CHARACTER is equal to that of the network that is his employer. There was a time in which ESPN prided itself on the highest journalistic standards; they would not tolerate anyone who damaged the brand. They have now become a second rate network where the focus is the talking head NOT the game itself. I will continue to watch the games but when the final horn sounds I will get my highlights and sports commentary elsewhere.

notorious:
Lomas Brown accepted big money from the Detroit Lions to, you know, BLOCK.
On at least one occasion (that we now know of), he decided to purposely not do what he was highly paid to do…
How would you feel if Scott Mitchell now suddenly said that he purposely threw incompletions and/or interceptions because he didn’t like his coach or coordinator?
Lomas Brown, for all intent and purposes, admitted that he pulled punches and took dives during a pro sporting even not affiliated with the WWE…
So, yes, that makes what he did “terrible.”

Lets all be outraged about something that happened almost a decade ago! Brown spoke candidly and gave an atypical insight that players never give, and now people are spewing this faux-outrage and indignation.

The vast majority of NFL players are meatheads, especially the big uglies. But when stories come out of these guys acting the way you would expect someone who makes their living smashing up against 300 pound men would, the commenters come out of the woodwork to talk about how evil and terrible they are.

On First Take I’ve often heard Lame Brain take SUH’s side of the foot to groin. You don’t last 20 yrs playing nice in the trenches.

He is worst than a dirty player he is an opportunist then and now! Hiding behind his slow ‘draw” and Green Mile like grin!

I wouldn’t be at all surprised if the producer for First Take is black and it’s the only show they would let him work on.

Thats why Espn tells guys like Rob Parker, Lomas Brown, and Stephen A smith to say such stupid things. They watch the ratings momentarily increase.

But after a while, there’s too much damage, sponsors pull out and the producer gets fired. On the way out, they tell him “hey we gave you a chance, too bad it didn’t work out.”

On advice of counsel, Lomas is continuing to demonstrate the merits of his suit against the league wherein he alleges suffering brain damage during his playing career.

I stopped all voluntary viewing of ESPN when they announced Rob Parker was only suspended and not fired, so I don’t give a darn what Lomas Brown said, didn’t say, did, or didn’t do.

Say whatever you want in your vain bid for increased viewership, ESPN spewers of vomit. I don’t give a damn.

Lomas Brown is actually a genius! You see he knows that he dug himself into a ditch so he’s going to keep on digging, the more he digs, the deeper he goes, the less people that know or remember why the ditch is there to begin with. It’ll be so deep nobody will even know that Lomas Brown is in it besides Lomas Brown.

Lomas has said enough to reveal his intentions. If the lions truly value the contributions of former players-team players-lomas will be excluded from any events now or in the future. ESPN, if you continue to employ this buffoon then someday you may find your network as the subject of a 30 for 30-like segment. Did you learn nothing from mis-hiring Rush Limbaugh?

Serious case of what is medically referred to as Interrectal craniumitis. I think it’s Latin.

Can be played any way Lomas wants it to be played out. But too little too late now. He has really tarnished himself now.

Clearly, Mr. Brown subscribes to the “if you’re in a ditch, keep digging” school of thought.
Hey moron, you might wanna shut up sometime soon.

“As far as being the worst QB in lions history, how about Jeff Komlo, Chuck Long, Andre Ware, etc. There are others as well, Mithcell wasnt that bad and to say he was is incorrect.”

Chuck Long was a pretty close second and Andre Ware was also terrible. However, Mitchell’s body of work spanned a longer period of time and so, in my mind, he was worse.
I’m only talking about players who I remember watching. I’ve never even heard of Jeff Komlo but I’m sure he was also terrible.
Eric Hipple is another who just came to mind. He may have been even worse than Chuck Long. There’s just so many to choose from and it’s a pretty subjective thing.

I know it was a low down thing to do, but it was Scott Mitchell. He held the ball longer than Leftwich does and got hit more than Cutler anyway. He was overblown coming out of college. He was Rick Mirer 1.0.
