whitem0nkey Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Nice move for the lions, i wanted kitna for my bears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursa Majoris Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Edit: Not a terrible choice, but it's interesting that we have more money than most, but are bringing in marginal players so far. 1368429[/snapback] Millen is like Kevin McHale at the T-Wolves. Both like to think they can spot real talent where others can't. The problem is that they're wrong. That's why both clubs screw up their draft, their coaching and their free agency all the time.

loyalboyd Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 I have total faith in Joey...I have faith that he will screw up a good part of everything he does. 1368542[/snapback] Give the man a break! Joey is going to do better than everyone thinks, watch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loyalboyd Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Oh and give him more line help as well. No need for the human pinyata syndrone to come out in the NFL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitem0nkey Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 so Josh McCown, is not going there anymore i would guess. Arizona quarterback Josh McCown wrapped up his visit to Detroit. "Josh was excited," said McCown's agent, Mike McCartney. "He really feels good about (coach) Rod Marinelli and Mike Martz. He feels like it would be a great fit. So we'll see what happens."...

Joey is going to do better than everyone thinks, watch! 1368576[/snapback] I think Joey can succeed, I believe Martz can make any of our QB's look decent. I just think there is 80 other guys in the league that can succeed too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Holliday Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 All this being said, I love the fact that we went out and got Kitna, I also believe that Kitna will be the starter on opening day for us. IMO he was the best QB out there in free agency bargainwise. and the 2nd best to Brees overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Holliday Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 And what GM would that be? 1368599[/snapback] Someone without Millen as his last name. If I am going to name the major problem with the Lions though I have to go to the owner.Ford always butts in when he does not understand the game of football.

The Irish Doggy Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Jon Kitna is the perfect Detroit QB. He's just good enough to reach .500, but not much more. If history is an indicater, Lions fans should be comfortable there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Irish Doggy Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 In all seriousness, if Detroit sees a rookie QB they like this year, why not try to duplicate the Bengals success by playing Kitna one year while the heir appearent learns the ropes? Seems like FA QBs are flying all over the place today. If the rookies drop, might Detroit have a choice between 2 of the big 3 this year?

TheGrunt Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 You know what's going to happen. Don't you, Detroit fans? Joey will play lights out in training camp/pre-season and win the starting job. He then will do enough to keep the job for a majority of the season. This will finally escalade into a late season change to Kitna. However, it will be too late and they will suck again. * OK buddy , you keep this up and I will remove the bag from my head and give you a mean stare. I gotta say I have been a huge fan of Harrington ever since his rookie season--fighting through every single frustrating year where sadly: Joey plays his lights out in training camp, etc. etc. then the season goes down hill from there. But I'm gonna do it again! I really do feel it is not Harrington causing the problems in Detroit. Any real detriot 'fan' can plainly see that it is the freagin' O-line that needs help! They can't even block well enough for K. Jones to run well! Not only that but the coaches simply didn't have the right game plan for the talant they had. These new coaches are going to turn this team around! I can feel it. Watch out vikings... The Lions are gonna run right through ya! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bengels had a fine offense with kitna behind center,it was the defense that had to improve, and they have and that is why they made it back to the playoffs. don't get me wrong, Palmer is a fine QB. but if not for the improved defense he would of been the QB of a 8 and 8 team too.
