He's a brutal tactician. He got to an AFC title game on the back of Peyton Manning and a team built by Tony Dungy. His Lions teams lucked into the playoffs both times they made it. The Lions are going to be my favourite team to bet against the next few weeks. Very likely that they're 2-6 by the time the Browns come to town in week 9.
