Ex-Detroit Lions QB Dan Orlovsky obliterates Matt Patricia; 'It's a bunch of trash'

When Detroit Lions general manager Bob Quinn fired coach Jim Caldwell after the 2017 season, Quinn said, in effect, that 9-7 isn't good enough.

After Sunday's 35-29 loss to the Saints, head coach Matt Patricia, the man brought in to replace Caldwell, fell to 10-25-1 in Detroit.

And among the head-scratching things Patricia has said, this comment on Sunday goes to the top of the list:

"Certainly, I think when I came to Detroit there was a lot of work to do, and that’s what we’re trying to do."

That struck a chord with former Lions quarterback Dan Orlovsky.
