Did anyone else watch AGs press conference? He seemed really defensive (no pun). Multiple times he answered the media’s questions by reminding them that the Lions are a “top 10 defense” according to the stats (which is true by total yards but we are 20th points allowed).
Idk, it rubbed me the wrong me the wrong way. We all know stats dont tell the whole story. And when asked about the trade deadline, he called a reporter’s statement “the stupidest thing you could say” in regards to adding more defensive help.
AG is gritty, sure, but he doesn’t seem to take the same accountability as the rest of the coaching staff. This is NOT a fire AG post. I just wonder if others get the same vibe as me.
Sometimes a coach will say something that doesn’t seem grounded in reality but he’s saying it to show the players that he’s on their side. That may or may not be the case here, but the current coaching staff is not a group that blames the players for shortcomings.
