Lol, des showing his colours.

Like previous retread head coaches who did shit in previous head coaching stint and get another shot, to end up being just as bad? You got me.

True. But Jauron also was never really hired by the Lions as a HC. He was the interim HC after Mariucci was fired. For whatever that's worth.
