I'm fuzzy on the details but he cost the Lions a playoff game last season or the one before with some absolutely head-scratching rolls of the dice. 

Yeah, he went for it on 4th down, up 24-7 in SF inside the 40ers 10 and got stopped (2023 playoffs). Shifted the momentum, might have cost them a SB.

As much as I appreciate Dan Campbell, and would love to play for a coach like that, he's also cost himself and his team as much as he has helped them.

He is overly aggressive to a fault.  It has cost his team precious points in big regular and post season games.   Things yourself and members of this board have criticized Coach Stef about.

It's kind of strange Kitchens is on Belichics staff currently

He was on North Carolina’s staff last year under Mack Brown, and I believe was the interim head coach for their bowl game(?) 

Belichick kept him on his staff when he took the HC gig.

And is who was empowered to hire the coach.

Yep. Definitely got the impression that Kitchens had Dorsey's stamp of approval. 

In fact, how bad it went with Kitchens was probably the biggest reason JD got fired.

But I wouldn't have hired Kitchens.
