If not as the next Matt Millen, the next, less bald Rod Marinelli? Great idea, right, Lions fans? Right?! Before you blow your brains out, know this: Billick ain't talking. Which is to say: there's hope he won't take the gig (via MDS at PFT): How Not to Fix the Lions: Hire ...

... going to increase ticket sales, and in reality all they are doing is decreasing interest in the Lions. By the end of the season there is a good chance that many fans will simply stop caring about the Lions altogether. After not being able to watch their home games, what's the point? The Lions are winless anyways, and the true fans out there are the ones that get punished. Great thinking, NFL.
Former Ravens coach and current FOX announcer Brian Billick has no comment on the possibility of working for the Lions in the future.
