Now they are reportedly going after Jim Caldwell?? :yucky:

 

This cannot make you happy. I know it doesn't make me happy as Whisenhunt is now in Tennessee. 

 

I don't get it. How come whenever the Jags and Lions need head coaches, we always get either lesser tier guys like Mularkey/ Jim Caldwell or prospects like Bradley/ Schwartz/ Del Rio???

 

Does the NFL want each of us to fail that bad???

 

I thought Detroit would basically have their pick of the litter, coaching-wise this offseason, given their favorable personnel situation. 

 

 

per rotoworld: 

 

 

 

ESPN's Adam Schefter and Chris Mortensen report the Lions are focusing on Ravens OC Jim Caldwell for their head-coaching vacancy.
 
CBS Sports' Jason La Canfora has a similar report. With Ken Whisenhunt choosing the Titans over the Lions, it's on to Plan B for GM Martin Mayhew and company. Lions owner Bill Ford Jr. spoke with ex-Colts coach Tony Dungy on Monday, and Dungy endorsed Caldwell. Peyton Manning also gave Caldwell a strong recommendation, per the Lions' official website. Ex-Titans coach Mike Munchak is also still in play for the Lions. They'll likely make a decision this week.
