This week, the Detroit Lions continued to lose some of their defensive coaches to other teams. The Jim Caldwell era of coaches is beginning to crumble as defensive line coach Kris Kocurek left to join the Miami Dolphins while defensive line assistant Matt Raich and defensive coordinator Teryl Austin have already established themselves with the Bengals in Cincinnati.
From the outside, it looks like the Lions are falling further and further behind in the position coach search, as they wait to be legally cleared to hire Matt Patricia as their new head coach.
