ALLEN PARK, Mich. -- Detroit coach Jim Caldwell is shrugging off speculation about his job security just a quarter of the way into the season.The Lions 17-14 loss to Chicago on Sunday dropped them to 1/3 and Caldwells future came into question at Mondays news conference. Caldwell, whose four-year contract runs through next season, didnt seem concerned.We dont worry about that, he said. My job is to coach this team and get this team headed in the right direction.Caldwell said he meets with general manager Bob Quinn on a daily basis, but he would not elaborate whether his job performance has been discussed.If it was, I wouldnt tell you, Caldwell told reporters. What we talk about in terms of those meetings are things we dont discuss publicly.Detroit linebacker Tahir Whitehead was more willing to discuss his coachs future.Coach Caldwell definitely has our support, Whitehead said Monday. Hes a great coach, a great man. Hes always composed. His demeanor forces you to give it your all. You want to lay it on the line for him.Whitehead said questions about Caldwells job security have not become a distraction.Its easy to block it out, he said. You ignore the noise. You cant worry about what outsiders are saying. They are outsiders for a reason. They are not on this team or involved with this team.After a 39-35 win at Indianapolis to open the season, the Lions have dropped three straight by a total of 11 points. Two of the losses have been to NFC North rivals. Detroit hosts the undefeated Eagles (3-0) on Sunday.Im a guy that believes in results. Results arent good, plain and simple, Caldwell said.Im not going to make excuses or hide from facts. Im more interested in winning and losing. Weve been losing of late, and thats not good.Some Lions players defended Caldwell, who showed last season that a turnaround is possible. The Lions won six of their final eight games to finish 7-9.Coaches dont go out and play, they just prepare us, tight end Eric Ebron said after Sundays loss to the Bears. They dont play for us. We play the game. If we dont execute the game plan they put together, we lose.If the Lions hope to put together some wins, they will likely need more from receiver Golden Tate, who was targeted four times against Chicago and caught one pass for 1 yard in limited action. Tate has 14 receptions for 95 yards and no touchdowns this season.Everybody has an important role, Caldwell said, expressing confidence in Tate. There may be some games where he has one or two catches and somebody else has 10. Its going to happen that way, particularly when you have a number of guys that can make plays.Tate said the Lions entire offense needs to play better.We arent in sync right now, but we know were good, Tate said. We just got to all click at the same time every single play. Were just trying to get back on track. Were working hard, no doubt.---Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: https://twitter.com/AP-NFL Albert Pujols Jersey .4 million title.
