You didn't think they would put themselves in a position to draft Haskins and God forbid put pressure on Stafford, did you?

That organization has no idea what to do.

They’re a mess. It’s what happens when you let a player run your franchise.

You’re leaning too heavily into the other thread dwags. It’s obvious.

Giants, Cardinals, nfc south and afc West I believe next year. Schedule will be tough.

by aualum06 2018-12-30, 20:34

Actually nfc east and the bucs that is a little easier

How did Eric Ebron all of a sudden learn how to catch this year? I don't get it.

Also, as was pointed out by someone on Facebook, there’s no reason to be disgusted with today’s win. Detroit would’ve just screwed up the higher draft pick, anyway.

I've got a great idea let's just release him with no back up plan

And if you're gonna make that move at least don it with your highest paid player.

We swept Green Bay this year. That’s always a positive even when they stink.

Martha speaks. Is she talking about the Lions? Or her and Nordy?

So naturally a Jim Caldwell led Packers squad with JBC as OC win the division next year. God I hope....

Why not? He takes these interviews to help teams get past the Rooney Rule. He's a good soldier. Roundtrip first class plane ticket and 3 days/2 nights in a nice hotel on somebody's dime. They'll throw him an assistant job eventually

Source? You realize he was 60-36 as a head coach if you take away the 2-14 season Indy had when Manning was out the whole year.

What a hot take. Caldwell is a legit candidate because he’s a good coach.

Good QB coach? I'd say yes.
OC? Not so much. Ask the Ravens
HC? So so. Definitely not in college. Also not when his team is in Suck for Luck mode. He did a mediocre job as Lions head man. Which for that franchise is fairly successful. However they did fire him so something must be lacking.

He interviewed for a slew of jobs after he got let go by the Colts. He's a good soldier and willing to go along to get along. Not too many guys get a third bite at the apple.

I think he will.

If I had a veteran team that just needed a steady hand on the tiller I'd consider hiring him. He seems to gain and keep the respect of the players and maintain a cohesive locker room. If you have enough talent that can be enough to win.

I don't see him as a rah-rah inspirational leader that would do better with a younger team.

Like the packers. Just a calm ceo to chill out their princess qb. Hire an OC that will utilize his talents and a DC that will fix that side of the ball.

The playoff win was such a unicorn for that franchise that it's almost a man on moon type of historical event. I was there man. 216B, row 2, don't remember seat #s. Willie Green The Touchdown Machine.
