                Horrible choice. But it's the lions, so it doesn't surprise me

                  Wow had to scrape the bottom of the barrel and go with Peytons former assistant hc. Guess Schiano and Norv were not returning calls.

                      Same franchise that hired and kept Matt Millen so not surprising

                      Probably felt like Caldwell was a Dungy kind of guy to get the out of control team in order

                      Not a fan but you never know

                            What an awful hire.

                            As a fan of 30-plus years, I've never been so disconnected to the Lions and Pistons.

                                      Caldwell took a team that Tony dungy built and in just three years, went from the Superbowl to 10-6 to 2-14. Detroit is basically your biggest toilet in America anyway, so they deserve this hire.

                                        He was 29th in offense last season in Baltimore. Incredible. I hope they go 0-16 again.

                                          Yeah, but at least he went 29-68 as a head coach at Wake Forest.

                                            Until the Ford family is out of the picture, this franchise will continue to be the biggest running joke in sports.

                                              My first gut reaction to this hire is the same as you guys, but give him a chance, who knows...

                                                not a bad hire. he groomed peyton and flacco in to great qbs and won 2 super bowls.

                                                since whisenhunt turned them down, he wasn't a bad second choice.

                                                    Good hire for the NFL to keep the lions out of the playoffs for the next 10 years.

                                                      How fukking terrible of a hire was this? Pure desperation and micromanagement by Ford family. What a fukking joke. Glad they made sure Stafford's broken arm was in on decision

                                                        Would we be surprised if Stafford had a hand in picking this guy. More of the loosey goosey b.s like last year im guessing.
