#Saints
assistant head coach/TEs coach Dan Campbell has emerged as the favorite to be the new #Lions head coach, sources tell me and @TomPelissero
. No in-person interview can be conducted until their season has ended, so it’s all on hold officially until then.

only the Lions would pick a coaching favorite without even interviewing him first.

Pretty sure some on BBI were banging the drum for him

for the Giants last year.

What team is he OC for?

I was hoping they'd consider him when they hired Shurmur

If I remember he came off well in his interim stint in Miami.

I like that hire.

Unfortunately, it won't work because the Lions are a losing organization.

Dan Campbell

I believe he's on the Saints staff.

I think he’ll be good for Detroit

One of my favorites for the job.

Really surprised the Lions let him get away.

Hope they make an offer to Bienemy or Dan Campbell.

I think the Saints have 2 good one waiting in the wings

in Campbell and Aaron Glenn. Football descendants of Parcells.

Thankfully we already have our guy, of similar background.

I wanted him last year. Not disappointed in Judge, though.

They lost out on Saleh because they did not have a GM in place yet

....I still think Bienemy winds up in Houston.
Just seems like they will wind up backing into a good hire.

Pray for Dan Campbell. Detroit has been awful for the better part of 70 years now...with minor glimpses of hope.
