It is time for someone in Lions management to talk to Papa Jim

Caldwell quotes have me disturbed and the Lions front office and owner should be too. Caldwell believes he is still coaching for his career. He isn't. He still thinks his career as a head coach in the NFL is salvageable. It isn't. He has had two head coaching jobs and both of them have ended in abject failure. His time as an NFL head coach is over. I understand him wanting to put as much positive on his train wreck of a season as possible in order to protect any faint possibility of a future job but that doesn't help the Lions long term.

The season is over. The three remaining games are nothing more than a formality. They are glorified scrimmage games and should be treated as such. The upper management of the Lions needs to make this clear to Caldwell immediately. We are no longer playing to win this year. We are playing to evaluate young players for roster spots next year.
