I think there are 4 more winnable games (MN, ATL, AZ, and GB). Given that it’s always been a rebuild project, I think we keep Poles, Flus, and Fields if we get 7 wins, especially if we look okay in the losses.
The team is on the way up, still playing hard, and I think 3 years is a more reasonable timeline.
Lions fan with an honest question:
If you guys do end up with the first pick in the draft with the Carolina pick, does Fields remain the starter?
There’s no way unless Fields magically figures it out in the middle of year three. I think we know what he is at this point. A mediocre QB.
