Where this annoys me as a Lions fan is that it seems this is the ONLY place Caldwell would have been hired. Odds are he would have been let go by Baltimore & taken a QB coach job somewhere. Supposedly he was very impressive in the interview, but not impressive to the point where they wanted him over Whiz (who, while being the glitzy & glamorous choice would have come with HUGE bust potential.)
Remember, yesterday they had a jet waiting to go pick up a different guy. Now we have a guy who looked great when paired with a QB who makes every coach look like Vince Lombardi, but won 2 games without him.
Hope we're all wrong.
