Detroit Lions Owner Sheila Hamp FINALLY Speaks After Disappointing Season!
30 comments
The lion's won 3 championships in 5 year's in the 50s, so stop with the current GM is the best ever, when Barry was here we went to the championship game and lost to the Superbowl champ's, plus in that era made the playoffs 4 out of 6 years, so stop with the itiotic moronic statement about this pathetic bunch of loser's being the best ever, do your freaking job and research the team your supposedly covering
Of course we talking free agents and trades. We all no this.
There you go Sheila! The one thing the Lions have never had is a go getter owner.
The heat is on Brad Holmes and Dan Campbell do you hear the sizzle in the distance?
Im glad we have Shelia as an owner…its not a business for her, it seems she wants to win. Hopefully Brad and Dan step up this off-season with draft, coaching hires, free agents, etc.
I kinda feel like Dan is somewhat safe. He just can’t be the play caller, let him keep the culture and intensity. Get a good OC. I’m 50/50 on Brad he has to get positions of NEED, our first round pick has to be offensive or defensive line. If we go through another free agency with playoffs/Super Bowl in our sight and get nobody of need, he has to go!
Brad used up whatever capital he may have had. He may be the best GM we've HAD, however, there are BETTER. We need to move on from him & get a NEW BEST GM WE'VE EVER HAD.
We have to evolve beyond WCF vision of being the NY Yankees of the NFL. Having a certain personality over all else.
Love her coming out and saying what she said and better yet she has not extended anyone yet! Think about it this is a powerful family the only think they dont have is a superbowl ring and it sounds like she wants to be the one that can give that to her family
I love your show, and it’s been my go-to channel for staying up to date on Lions topics. I also agree with a lot of your takes on the different types of Lions fans, though at times I think you lean a bit more emotional when it comes to Brad Holmes. That said, I’m not someone who blindly says “In Brad Holmes we trust” or “let him cook,” but I do feel that many of the videos from the second half of the season onward have leaned toward a bias against him.
My reasoning is this: if you take Brad out of the equation earlier on, Dan’s Lions likely would’ve looked much sooner like they did at the end of this season—predictable play-calling, less creativity, and fewer answers. And that’s without factoring in the talent Brad identified and brought in; without those players, the results could’ve been much worse. From my perspective, Sheila, Brad, and Dan are far more aligned than it may appear from the outside, and I believe in them as a leadership trio—Dan for his coaching style, Brad for his meticulous scouting, and Sheila for her ownership.
I also think many of the issues we’re discussing now stem more from poor OC play-calling than anything else. With the right OC in place, I believe a lot of these opinions could shift within just a few games next season.
They are on the hot seat D
Dan Campbell screwed up the opportunity to get to the Super Bowl because he didn't believe in the team's capability. He and Brad Holmes were dumb enough to sign Goff to a big contract, and he can't even get the ball far enough to reach Jamison Williams. It's obvious that the talent on the sidelines was Ben Johnson! GET RID OF DAN!
I agree with you 100 percent D
I blame Dan Campbell more than Brad Holmes. He had look over his entire coaching staff and all the players, and then he’s DECIDES TO CALL THE PLAYS? Brad Holmes gets “spoon fed” by his staff, all the underlings and scouts.
I think Brad just realized this wasn’t good enough, I don’t think she came to Brad wrong, I bet before the season start Brad n Dan will get new contracts. Who can we get other thn him ( No Body)
The problem is BH strategy of drafting to build a winning roster,since we drafted late we had slim picks and instead of getting ballerina type talents with our picks we were good since our roster was probowl type players, injuries ended that and because of his refusing to get FA were out of contention for the foreseeable future .Listening to his presser i believe he will continue to value draft picks over FA and as such we are out of the superbowl talk.Jared Goff will end up getting both BH and MCDC fired after he falls flat in 2026 seson,meanwhile we will be in QB PURGATURY for 2026 thru 2028 until new GM drafts the new breed black QB ..
Sheila bout that life 💯
Looks like Sheila put a boot in someone's butt
They are in a prove it year if they mess up in 2026 they maybe down the road
She sick of owning a loosing team
Sounded like she used a chatbot
you have it out for holmes like sheila isnt the puppet master lol if she wouldve asked holmes to get the edge rusher he would had.
Sheila Hamp pulled a Brad Holmes on Brad Holmes. This is his audition year to prove that he deserves an extension on his contract.
Go out and get Eric Bieniemy he would be a great offense coordinator for detroit the man is a runnin bck coach for bears and was the genius for chiefs offense
Holmes needs to take some blame but so does Campbell. Hiring Morton for a Super Bowl team is not something to just ignore. He kicks a couple FG we are in the playoffs.
I don't understand this mentality that getting to the superbowl is guaranteed if you have the right person or if you haven't gotten there you don't have the right people. lol. you make it sound like it's plain incompetence or the responsibility of one or two people that keeps us here. There are a lot of reasonable criticisms to make but this idea that they should be fired because they haven't won a superbowl yet is just nonsense
You sir, are a complete fool. You let your mouth write checks, you don’t have the facts to cash. Another Dime a Dozen keyboard warrior who thinks he’s a football genius. Who come and go on GoogleTube like an autumn day.
I think Detroit should retain backup running back Montgomery. I'd give him one more year and see what happens. He is still a very good running back. I don't see nothing wrong with him.
Anybody disagree with me. Prove me wrong about Montgomery. I want to hear it. I want a straight up answer.
? If Ben Johnson or Mike McDaniels had it been oc would we have made the playoffs? Yes means dan campbell's at fault. No means brad Holmes is at fault. Me personally, I like both of them and I think they're doing a fair job.. We fell off , but I trust these guys.
