This is hilarious to me considering how most colt fans feel about these guys.

Rooney rule and Looney rule satisfied. Looney rule states that a team should interview someone worse than their desired choice to make their final decision seem intelligent.

So do they want the Looney or the Rooney? Either ways I would feel bad for Packers fans lol

Objectively:

Cardboard Jim Caldwell
7 seasons experience as NFL Head Coach
62 - 50 overall (26 - 22 with Colts; 36 - 28 with Lions)
5 seasons with winning records (of 7)
3 seasons with 10+ wins (of 7)
2 seasons with losing record (of 7)

Up Chuck Pagano
6 seasons experience as NFL Head Coach
53 - 43 overall
3 seasons with winning records (of 6)
3 seasons with 10+ wins (of 6)
1 season with losing record (of 6)

Having suffered through both, WE see their many flaws and problems.

But to the rest of the nation, their resumes look solid. Many NFL teams would look at those results with envy.

Let them interview and win jobs; that makes it better for us.

Walk Worthy,

This is why I've always said experience on resumes can be overrated.

Ehhh, what do we care? It's not like coaching matters.

(It was coming, and someone had to say it.)

For the sake of my Packer friends up here(I live in Wisconsin) I hope
it's just a case of due diligence. They've suffered enough this year.

I bet Aaron Rodgers didn't sleep a wink last night.

Hiring either one of those guys would just mean that Rodgers is, basically, the head coach. Neither Pagano or Caldwell could stand up to him, so Aaron would just keep them in his pocket. The team would suck, but it would be nice for Bears and Vikings fans. Detroit is a perpetual mess, so they're irrelevant.

I think Rodgers wants to keep Joe Philbin. That's what he is saying anyway. I think Phlbin was his OC when they won the SB.

Btw, wrong forum

Chuckie's winning record is going to be his selling point, and he will be able to bullshit his way through blaming the organizational mess totally on Grigson, whose reputation around the league is poor. What I want to know, though, is who he's going to blame his perpetually weak colts defenses on? Wasn't he supposed to be a defensive guru? His monster didn't scare anyone and made the most pitiful of QBs look like GOATS. That alone should get him benched for other candidates. JMO

If they are going to hire a puppet, I couldn't think 2 better candidates, unless of course Jason Garrett becomes available.

At least with the Colts, Caldwell and Pagano were coaching NFL teams (as head coaches) for the first time ever ........ so you could at least put up a modest argument that the Colts didn't know what they were getting themselves into when they hired them.

But NOW ........ now that it has become abundantly clear just how bad they are as NFL head coaches ........ anybody who even considers bringing them on at the helm deserves anything and everything that they get.

At least the Bears weren't stupid enough to hire Pagano as their head coach.

I think we are in an era where there isn't great coaching in the NFL. I'm thankful we didn't get that Billichick assistant since they never really fan out.
