LOL. Irsay had everyone thinking Caldwell would be kept.

Of course he's not but he doesn't have to worry about it cause he's not going to be there anyway. My guess is he'll be here.

I'm thinking Payton can kiss that 28million dollar bonus good bie and he will be on another team next yr.

Grimm back to the Cardinals, and Mike Nolan to the Falcons

I don't see PM coming to DC

#Hail to the Redskins

Lou Spanos will be going to UCLA as their DC.

ESPN 980
The LA Times is reporting that Redskins linebackers coach Lou Spanos is going to be hired as the defensive coordinator at UCLA.

Interesting. Good scoop there Ruh

So ... Caldwell fired by the Colts?

Guess Caldwell's secret "Suck For Luck" plan didn't work out too well for him.

Caldwell was the fall guy anyway.

The press release was real misleading. And I quote:

...until the end of this sentence. Ok, that sentence is done. He's fired. Hope no media outlets didn't read halfway through this press release and misjudge anything, if any of them did it's my bad. Peace!

Tennessee Titans LB coach Frank Bush has ties to both Mike and Kyle...

Yeah i believe that as well. Its just been really strange the series of events and the timing. Final indication of whether Peyton stays or goes will be head coach choice.

Agreed.. If they bring in a defensive coach (Spags, Zimmer, etc) or someone that runs a different offense, this is a perfect time to turn the franchise over. Let Manning, Wayne, Mathis, Saturday and all the aging free agents go, draft Luck, be smart about targeting younger players in free agency and try to build another decade of winning football.

My money says Peyton hits the open market March 8.
