Martz was trouble. But we don't need a West Coast dude, either. We need an establish the run/stretch the field guy. Also agree..Joey is our best chance. Stillers annihilate the Seahawsks tomorrow. This won't even be close. Great post. Martz was trouble. But we don’t need a West Coast dude, either. We need an establish the run/stretch the field guy. Also agree..Joey is our best chance.

Who knows, we may even see a little bitch slap fight some Sunday... On to the point of my post...you've got to agree that job numero uno is to completely re-tool the O-line...draft priority, F.A., whatever...it all starts there. More specifically...

Bottom line, give credit to the organization for moving decisively on clearing out Mooch (to the chagrin of us native Michiganders that wanted him to succeed) and hiring a tough minded accomplished football guy like Rod M…with Martz in the mix now, at least things will be entertaining…I mean even if we suck again…we can still watch for signs of a leadership battle between Rod and Mike! Who knows, we may even see a little bitch slap fight some Sunday…

On to the point of my post…you’ve got to agree that job numero uno is to completely re-tool the O-line…draft priority, F.A., whatever…it all starts there. More specifically…

Backus…gone
Raiola…don’t make me laugh
Woody…c ya
Butler…cryin’ over here now
DeMuling…possible keep
Pollard…one more year

Now don’t tell me I’m throwing the baby out with the bathwater here…these guys simply did not produce…if we’re startin’ over, let’s really start over. Rod’s forte is line play…so, let’s go get a group that’s hungry to win and wants to work together. Just build it baby!

What say you?
