Lions to use the Schwartz
The bumbling Detroit Lions used the Schwartz yesterday to pluck Tennessee defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz from his current job and plug him into their head coaching position. Schwartz has been highly successful at Tennessee. His defenses have been highly ranked in yards and points allowed, including allowing the second fewest points in the NFL this year. Schwartz is considered a cerebral strategist. He is an avid chess player with a degree in economics from Georgetown.
Schwartz said, "I don't shy away from a challenge." Good thing because the Lions have won exactly one playoff game since 1957.
