Report: Packers interview two former Colts head coaches

December 26, 2018 By Bill Scott

The Green Bay Packers close out their season on Sunday against the Detroit Lions at Lambeau Field and they’re busy interviewing potential head coaching prospects.

Pro Football Talk was first to report that the Packers interviewed with former Colts and Lions head coach Jim Caldwell.  Caldwell spent three years (2009-2011) with the Indianapolis Colts (26-22 record) and then four years (2014-2017) with Detroit (36-28 record).

Caldwell guided the Lions into the NFC playoffs in two of the last three years, but he was fired after failing to make the playoffs last year.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel first reported that the Packers also interviewed former Colts head coach Chuck Pagano.  In six seasons in Indianapolis, Pagano went 53-43 during the regular season and 3-3 in the postseason.

Pagano worked with Packers defensive coordinator Mike Pettine in Baltimore, and he hired Packers interim coach Joe Philbin in Indianapolis.

The Packers have already said that current interim head coach Joe Philbin will be a candidate for the vacancy.  The Packers are expected to talk with several more candidates before deciding on a new head coach.

Packers aren’t happy after Suh stepped on Rodgers (Audio-Video)

December 29, 2014 By Bill Scott

Green Bay Packers coach Mike McCarthy didn’t even see the incident, but he trusts his peeps well enough to know that Ndamukong Suh stepped on his quarterback on purpose and he’s not happy about it.

The incident took place in the fourth quarter of the Packers 30-20 victory over the Detroit Lions at Lambeau Field.

“He’ll probably say it was an accident, he was getting blocked into him,” Rodgers said.  “That’s what (referee) Walt Anderson said.  But we’ll see.”

Suh didn’t speak to reporters after the game to offer up any type of excuse for his actions.  But there is a history here.  It was Suh who stepped on and kicked Evan Dietrich-Smith at Ford Field in 2011 and was hit with a two-game suspension.

You can bet this latest incident will be reviewed by the league.

The Lions play at Dallas in the NFC WildCard playoffs this weekend and there’s a chance Suh may not be around for it.

Here’s the takes of the two head coaches.

AUDIO: Mike McCarthy on Ndamukong Suh :11

AUDIO: Lions coach Jim Caldwell doesn’t believe Suh did anything on purpose :16

You’ve all seen the video by now.  What do you think?  Fox Sports “expert” Mike Pereira offered up his own opinion in this Fox Sports Video after the game.
