It’s been a rough first year for Detroit Lions head coach Matt Patricia.

With a return to the NFL Playoffs being the expectation, Patricia, his coaching staff, and his players failed miserably.
So, the question is, will Patricia return as head coach of the Lions in 2019? Though it seems highly likely that he will return, especially considering he was hired by his buddy, GM Bob Quinn, it would not be the first time a rookie head coach was let go after a horrific season.
On Thursday, Patricia was asked if he has been notified by Lions’ management about whether or not he would be back for the 2019 campaign.
From Lions Wire:
“I’m pretty confident. Everything for me right now is just keep moving forward and getting ready for the game this weekend. Like I said, I meet with Mrs. (Martha Firestone) Ford every week, so they’ve been great. Her and her family have been great.”
Nation, what do you think, should Patricia be brought back next season after not making the playoffs with the Lions in 2018?

If the Detroit Lions make this BOLD combo of moves, they will win the NFC North in 2019
The 2018 version of the Detroit Lions sucked horribly. The head coach sucked. The offense sucked. The defense sucked. Heck, even the special teams sucked at times.
So, with that established, what can be done during the offseason to turn things around on time for the kickoff of the 2019 season?
Though I have a few ideas up my sleeve that would help the team to improve greatly, the biggest idea is one that will likely blow your mind. Mostly because I am not sure if it has ever been done before.
In my opinion, there is one BOLD move the Lions can make this offseason that will, in turn, put the wheels in motion for a 2019 NFC North Title run.
Now, I get it. You are probably already shaking your head and calling me a moron for thinking the Lions have any chance in 2019.
But they do.
IF and ONLY IF they make this BOLD move. (Technically it is a trio of moves but stick with me)
