Quote:As it turned out, the Lions were locked into a specific type of Head Coach candidate. Previous HC experience and having a background on the Offensive Side of the ball were both essential from the Lions brass standpoint. Tony Dungy, who strongly supported Jim Caldwell in his attempt to get the Lions HC job, gave Bill Ford Jr. advise in sticking to the profile that you are looking for. From my perspective, a broader search approach would have been the better way to proceed. At least talk to some of the Assistant Coaches in the NFL w/o NFL HC experience that had major success as Assistant Coaches. Maybe one of them would have emerged into the next Mike Tomlin.

As for Tony Dungy, the following is an article has some quotes from him regarding Jim Caldwell and the Lions HC search:

Could be worse. You could have hired Del Rio or Kubiak.

I was wrong about Trent Baalke.
