    Jim Caldwell (Indianapolis Colts)

    Vote of Confidence: October 26, 2011

    Bald-Faced Lie: “You can’t hold him responsible for injuries…The things that he can control, I think he’s done a terrific job given where we are from a standpoint of personnel.” — President Bill Polian

    Firing Date: January 17, 2012

    Post-Mortem: Caldwell found himself on the unemployment line despite his successful “Suck for Luck” campaign, as an ugly 2-14 record forced him to take his talents (read: blank stare) to Baltimore to become a QB coach. Though there was a silver lining: Caldwell somehow held onto his job longer than Polian.
