Jim Caldwell was wrong.
Detroit reporters who cover the Lions are not the Dungeon of Doom. We’ve been transformed into vampires. So … upgrade?
Thanks, Matt Patricia.
The new Lions coach has not only usurped the old Lions coach’s job but also his ability to make fun of the media. Case in point, when my colleague Dave Birkett asked Patricia on Wednesday if he was a little extra fired up for coaching his first NFL game, Patricia let us ink-stained wretches have it.
“I’m pretty fired up every day,” Patricia said. “I mean, you guys, sometimes I come in here and you guys suck the life out of me, but other than that, I’m pretty good because you guys aren’t really excited when I walk in here.
