Any chance Lions can make Bill Cowher think about coming out of retirement if Schwartz is let go?

Wishful thinking :D

Ford will probably keep Schwartz, too hard to go coach shopping.

That and the $12 million price tag for letting him go.

Needs to mix up the staff at least.

12m or a super bowl....the choice isn't that hard....they need to make a change and time to spend some money to get us to the promised land...I say fire em all...

Schwartz gone? I'm sure they will remain an undisciplined team under his leadership. That will likely hold them back from ever going real far.

If it was 12 million coming from your bank account would you think the same way?

You can't automatically assume the next coach will win a Super Bowl.

if I were a Ford and had it? Yup...especially with the whispers about Gruden...call him up and treat him like a hot date...wine and dine...and ask...so what would it take for you to take the lions to the super bowl? But....none of that will happen...if anything all COs will be gone....Schwartz stays..

with the amount of money nfl teams make 12mil isn't that much tbh.

lions made $248mil in revenue last season:

Lions salary this season:
$60mil
http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/team/detroit-lions/salary/67045?q=detroit-lions

so how can he not afford to spend the $12mil?
