If anybody here thinks Jarious Jackson is capable of helping O'Brien in this situation you're delusional.

Should be calling some high percentage pass plays so O'Brien can gain some confidence

 It was strictly a salary cap decision to dress two QBs. They invested so much in Reilly that they couldn’t afford to dress a third QB.
I don't think it was a cap decision. The Lions still dress 46 just like everyone else. Kraemar wouldn't be making anything more than whomever got his spot on the roster.

No, the Lions dress 45. The league allows that if they only dress two QBs. Other teams have done it on occasion but not for a full season.

Lions should consider themselves very fortunate to be down by only 13 points

Jarious Jackson got a reprieve against worse teams than us. He was, is and always will be a horrid OC. The sooner we cut this incompetent boob the better.

Well for sure they save money by keeping Kraemar around for $750/week (plus housing) instead of a minimum active roster salary of $55K.

And there’s no net cost to the Lions because he is taking a practice roster spot that would otherwise go to another player.
