DUNGY OUT, CALDWELL IN
A league source tells us that Colts coach Tony Dungy will step down, and that assistant head coach/quarterbacks coach Jim Caldwell will take the reins.
More to come.

You really ought to change your thread title. It's misleading.

:confused2: What's misleading? To step down usually indicates a person is no longer going to remain at his job. Sounds clear to me.

The article I posted actually has those exact words in it I think. So I dont think the title is misleading at all. He wasn't fired, he stepped down out of his own free will.

Except for the fact that he hasn't stepped down.

The above is a quote I copied and pasted.
Now to me there is a difference between what your thread title indicated and what Florio reported.
Your thread title states that it has already happened. Except he hasn't and PFT was saying that he will (not that he already has).

He may as well step down. It affects your players when every season they have this type of distraction going into the offseason. Either make it clear and sign a long extension like Belicheck did last offseason to quiet down the media, or just step down and retire.

nah its not a distraction really. He is gonna decide by Monday so its not a big problem. Its not like Favre when he waits two months to decide if hes going to come back or not and then if he possibly says no, they are in limbo at QB position but luckily for them he keeps saying yes.

If it is, I say give us a distraction that'll get us a 13-3 record. But yeah I don't see it as some big distraction. Even if it is, everyone is on an even playing field in this regard. If your team is successful then other teams are going to try and lure them away. If the team isn't then of course there's always the specter of being given the boot.
