Fat Matt is digging his own grave in DET. He is not media-savvy at all. Hes a no BS kinda guy and that is not helping him. BB isn't either but he can get away with it.
.
His disdain for the media is not very helpful, but the press started on him during TC when he made the players run "gassers" and it continued pretty much throughout the year, culminating with making the team practice outside in inclement weather..
Give him another year, let him start to rebuild with "tough" players who will buy into his system, and if he has a more successful season then a lot of the media noise will be muffled.. winning cures everything.
Matthew Stafford also needs to justify the huge contract he signed.. IMO a classic case of need for Incentive Based Contracts..
