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.

    I’m one of those people. I think we forget where we came from sometimes. To go from a historically bad defense to a top 10 in any way is not horrible. But also if we’re ranking defenses in reality, no way are we top 10. But my point is that there’s still hope. We can, and must do better, but there’s hope in my mind. And we’re definitely not going to fire him mid season with our record, so I’m glad to hang on to that hope. But I’m also not blind to the fact that we need to improve.
