Lions may fire Caldwell, Promote Austin.

Matthew Stafford in limbo as Lions mull firing Jim Caldwell, other moves - CBSSports.com

And with the 2015 season a wash and a search underway for new executives, Caldwell is by no means assured of finishing the season. Giving Austin the final month of the season to see what impact, if any, he can muster is hardly out of the question.

Wouldn't shock me.

Lions coach Jim Caldwell says he's not a dead man walking

"If you feel the need to state that you are not 'a dead man walking', it probably means that you are 'a dead man walking'."

We need the top pick. Caldwell is the man for the job. He did it in Indy.

I have faith in him. Just keep an eye on Jim Bob. make sure he does not get any ideas about winning. We dont cotton to thoughts about winnin round here.

Want more proof on how much of an ass-hat the Lions have for a HC. Maybe he's spoofing the media so as not to let the remaining opponents prepare otherwise but Caldwell has no current plans to get more playing time for their young backups in order to assess what they have for the future.

Caldwell states, " they're still trying to win games and that's their goal ".

BB_72; It's a good thing to still try and be competitive but knowing you're already out of the playoff picture don't you think it's more important to get these youngsters real game time experience over the last three weeks.

That dumbass must still believe he has a chance to save his job.

FIRE THAT FUCKER NOW, MARTHA !!!!!

Lions could benefit from playing Van Noy, Wright more

I could care less about how it will or might restrict duties of those still left.

I can agree with young defensive kids, not so much with offense.

Why worry anyway. These starters have proven they can lose, which is what you want, right?

After a slow start to the season Caldwell has this team playing great football.
