So the news coming out of Detroit has revealed some things comically.


- Bob Quinn had a background with New England and its not only Patricia who failed its Quinn who tried the "Patriot Way" in Detroit. Quinn from what I read fired a very liked head coach in Jim Caldwell , basically didn't want to consider any other coaching candidates for the role and focused on Mike Patricia to replicate the Patriots situation.


- Quinn and Patricia then got rid of any players that didn't take to the insane stern rules of no jewelry being worn in locker room. No one was to play music as well. Also players were in this time cussed at etc by Patricia its claimed. Former players have came out and poked fun at them on twitter on how things went. As one former player said the team was 9-7 and the whole line of Patricia's made no sense they were rebuilding the entire team. They just needed a little help getting over a hump , not a total rebuild.


- One funny piece was Patricia decided to use Cam Newton in a game a year or 2 ago dancing on sidelines. The idea was to piss off Lions players saying Newton was arrogant and cocky. Instead players began praising Newton for his dance moves and how they like to have fun like that themselves.


- After a hard 1st season full of hard practices and more which had Patricia build a hill for the team to get exhausted on ; a group of players after the final game popped some champagne and had a small party to celebrate not being around Patricia. This was after a 6-10 season and they were happy the season was over.



In all it was a complete clusterfuck driven by a man (Quinn) who thought he was recreating the New England Patriots. Then hired an even worse asshole than Todd Haley and destroyed the entire team in record time.
