Great breakdown of the improvement of Wilson's footwork and mechanics since the arrival of Schottenheimer whom Brees credited with teaching him the same techniques in San Diego. Good stuff.

And Bevell is getting credit for rebuilding the Lions passing attack. Weird stuff. I really never imagined a Schottenheimer would be the guy to turn around a passing attack, nor did I think Bevell could go to Detroit and make their passing game decent. Of course, they still can't run....maybe because you can't run the read option with Stafford!? :D

If the Lions continue on their current path he will probably get fired along with Patricia.

That would surprise me much less than him being credited with reviving the passing attack.

I don't follow the Lions, but have read a few Fantasy Football articles that credit Bevell with Stafford's resurrections. I feel it has more to do with a crappy run game after Kerryon Johnson went down and a defense that gives up too many points. The Lions have to throw.

Yep, that is the difference between fantasy and reality. The fantasy is he is delivering more fantasy points and the reality is they are on pace to win six games again........just like last season.

Bevell has been getting pretty good reviews , been checking in once in awhile, though he is getting questioned about the last play against the Raiders I guess...

Coming into the season, the narrative was Darrell Bevell might need a little time to install his system. So far, Bevell hasn’t missed a beat in helping to turn things around in Detroit. Whereas the Lions’ offense was the problem for chunks of last season, things have turned around quite quickly in 2019.

So far this year, the Lions offense has put up some solid statistics through the first half of the season, as ESPN writer Michael Rothstein pointed out in a tweet. They’ve managed to be a top eight team in terms of yardage, including the sixth best passing attack in the league. They are also 13th in points per game with 24.83, and while their ground game is the most average of the bunch, they’re still 18th in the league with 103.2 yards per game.
The Lions players seem to be excelling within the scheme, and that’s something which Marvin Jones recently alluded to in an interview. Jones said that the Lions have a ton of trust in Bevell and are motivated to keep the big plays coming on the field.

As for the offense as a whole under Bevell, Jones is happy with what he has seen so far and admits he loves the offense that Bevell is running. That’s true for his teammates in the room as well, who have been able to see the group finally reach some of their potential very early on.

“We love it in our room. No complaints. He’s a great mind, he’s done it for a while and he’s had great success so we want to continue that,” he said to the media.

Finally, it seems as if the Lions have the right man calling the shots for their offense that has not only the trust of the team, but the numbers to back it up as well. This trust has likely been a big reason the team has been able to lean on their offense as much as they have.

He can use it to pad his resume. He will need it.

Bevell sucks. Detroit could always pass . Stafford has passed for 5000 yards before. Can't seem to run the ball though..weird.
