okay.
Thigpen came in and is now under Herm's control. New OC, lost sense of confidence from the offense, absolute worst offensive performance (instead of hoping for TD's we were praying for first down's) in the league mid way through the season.
Daunte Culpepper a once stud QB can't even come in to the Lions and perform up to the impact Thigpen has. Cassel has been learning the Patriots offense since 2005 with Tom Brady as his teacher. If thats any clue to why he's been successful since Brady's injury.
Think if Thigpen had learned this new offense for 3 years and came in. You can't, but you can see that his numbers coming in under a new system, and probably doesn't know half the players first names in the locker room, and gave the offense a new set of balls. They're getting first downs, TD's and scoring at least 21 points or more a game. Yet this is not what the fans wanted!?!?!
