How about we don’t renew and then fold the team and you won’t have any games to watch for free. Way to take a shot at those who support Tennessee football financially.

Actually I was defending lion ticket holders. Way to take a post on Volnation.com personally though. :p
 
This time last year, JBC was talked about/interviewing for NFL head coaching jobs. He had a bad year under a rookie head coach this season. Before that, he was a rising star in the NFL. There is a better than decent chance that Patricia is the problem in Detroit, and not JBC. Calling his career in Detroit brutal is just ignorant.
You must not watch many lions games. In 2017 the lions couldn't score in the first quarter but we were told how great JBC made Stafford because he threw for 4k yards and had 2 1k receivers. Bull. When the team was behind they had to throw. This wasn't due to great planning but out of necessity. JBC couldn't figure out how to use Ebron but Indy had no issues utilizing him this year. He's also destroyed Matt Stafford. He made him from a gunslinger into a qb who questions every throw and continually takes more sacks then he should.

Like I said, take it up with the NFL GMs who thought enough of him to consider/interview him for HC jobs last year. Take it up with Matt Patricia who chose to keep him.

Ebron has matured as a player, and Indy’s offense is more conducive to TE success. He had 161 recs, over 1800 yds, and 10 TDs in 3 years in Detroit under JBC as OC. That’s an average of 54/600/3.3 a year. Not terrible, at all. 54 catches would currently rank 9th among TEs and 600 yards would rank 11th.

In Indy, Jack Doyle, the presumed starter, was injured most of the season, which seemed to help buoy EE’s numbers in Indy. But even guys like Mo Alie-Cox and Erik Swoope have had mild success this year at the TE position for Indy. Not to mention that Frank Reich, who helped Zach Ertz turn in career numbers last season in Philly, is coaching Ebron, now. Reich seems to favor the TE more and aside from TY Hilton, the Colts WR room is garbage. Someone has to catch the ball. Hilton got his fair share, Doyle was hurt, who else was going to do it? Chester Rogers and Ryan Grant? Ebron is just in a much better situation to be featured in Indy than he was in Detroit competing with Golden Tate and Marvin Jones for receptions.
