Go get Patricia

[Destro]

He doesn't seem well liked and success mostly existed in the Patriots world. Pass.

I remember what it was.. it was their stud corner that Matt Patricia chased out of town. This guy was a lot younger than Dunlap. Forget his name off the top of my head. But I remember not being impressed with some of Matt’s antics. Calling him out in front of the team and trying to embarrass him.etc.

A couple of things there:

First, he won't come here right now, as taking a job right now would most likely void any remaining contract money.

Second, Belicheck has a HUGE presence on the NE defense. As such I don't know how much of a positive impact Patricia made on those defenses.

Third, as it has already been stated, he has openly carried that Belicheck air of "I know all, you know nothing" without the resume to back it up. That shit can easily rub the players the wrong way. For instance, he reportedly was a complete prick upon arriving in Detroit and immediately had issues in the locker room.

Slay? I think that’s who it was

Agreed; hell Bill may not be all that without TB12

Matt Patricia might fit in Cincinnati perfectly. In fact, he is well known in Detroit for holding practice sessions outside in the cold and ice even though the Lions have an indoor practice facility.

I wouldn’t hesitate to bring Matt Patricia in as DC.He could really benefit this defense once he has all the players back healthy.He won’t be without a job for long.

He never was.

I believe he has 2 winning seasons without Brady under the helm, and one was an All-Star squad where Brady did start the first game.

He will be right back on New England... Count on it. .

[PikesPeakUC]

No thanks on Matt Patricia. His defense got worse every year in Detroit and the New England defense benefited greatly from having amazing field position to work with.

Also, he keeps a pencil above his ear even though his play card is laminated.

Noticed that Detroit also fired the GM.

If JDR doesn't fit with Taylor, I don't think Patricia would fit; also not with this Front Office.

Detroit is the Bengals of the NFC.

Exactly...

[samhain]

My in-laws are Lions fans (misery loves company). I told my father in-law and brother in-law that people would love to have Patricia as the Bengals DC. My father-in-law promptly sent me a massive text explaining all the ways that Matt Patricia is a garbage coach and talking about how horrendous the defense was under his oversight, lol. He was mad that anyone would ever want to give the dude another job. Like legit angry at me for bringing it up.

Perhaps he's not the answer, lol.

[Fan_in_Kettering]

The Lions need to hire Zac Taylor as head coach. He’s an offensive genius and he’s a great playcaller.

[J24]

Meh

[Nicomo Cosca]

Rather have Wade Phillips.

But, we don't WANT coaches that say mean things to players......

Correction, we don’t want coaches that are terrible leaders of men.
