We may never hear the full story but I think Tedford really lost the room when he would not give Jennings a chance. Remember, it was only because of injury that Jennings got on the field in the first place. I have no doubt that prior to Beck going down a lot of guys on that team were already calling for Jennings to get a shot.
Tedford lost the room in training camp.
And we know this how?
I was at training camp.

Yes, I understand that, but what did you see/hear/detect that brings you to state this as a fact....not challenging....genuinely curious what happened.

Same here. I sure didn't see any signs of players standing around with a "WTF is this guy trying to do" look or body language.

I'm not going to disclose what was said, but the impression I got was that players weren't thrilled with some of the rules the coach put in place. As well, the pace of the practices dating back to the pre-camp offensive camp turned off a lot of the guys.

Tedford came in here and treated the guys as if they were college players.

Oh,I get it. It was no longer Benny's lackadaisical slackfest wherein the Lions went into games often looking like they hadn't practiced a lick all week.
