INDIANAPOLIS -- The agent for Colts offensive co-ordinator Bruce Arians said Wednesday night that his client has been released from an Indianapolis hospital and that they are finalizing details to begin interviewing for head coaching jobs. Packers Richard Rodgers Authentic Jersey . Earlier in the day, a league source familiar with the situation told The Associated Press that doctors were still trying to determine the extent of a health problem that forced one interview to be pushed back. The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because details of Arians illness have not been made public by the team. Mike Brown, Arians agent, denied there had been any change to Arians schedule. Arians, a 60-year-old prostate cancer survivor, has been complaining of dizziness and migraine headaches, conditions doctors believe is related to an inner-ear infection, the person told the AP. Five NFL teams are looking for head coaches. The Colts have given at least three teams permission to speak with Arians: the Chicago Bears, Cleveland Browns and Philadelphia Eagles. The San Diego Chargers are also believed to be interested in Arians. They hired Tom Telesco, Indys vice-president of football operations, as their new general manager on Wednesday. Arians took over the team after head coach Chuck Pagano was diagnosed with leukemia in September. Under Arians, the Colts went 9-3 and clinched their first playoff berth of the post-Peyton Manning era. The nine victories tied the NFL record for most wins after a midseason coaching change and immediately created speculation about Arians future plans as well as the possibility of him winning the leagues coach of the year award. Pagano returned for the final week of the regular season and shared a bear hug with Arians, a longtime friend after an emotional win over Houston. But when Arians showed up for Sundays team breakfast in Baltimore, he said he felt ill and was taken to the hospital. Quarterbacks coach Clyde Christensen called the plays in Arians absence, a late adjustment that made a bigger impact than anyone acknowledged after the game. "Its a big deal that Bruce got ill out there, it really is," the person told the AP. "Its not a side note. Its a major happening, its major adversity that you have to deal with." Arians was released from a Baltimore hospital on Monday evening after his blood pressure stabilized, but has been under doctor supervision since then. He was medicated for the return flight to Indianapolis and taken immediately to an Indy hospital by ambulance, the person said. Pagano, rookie quarterback Andrew Luck and other Colts players have repeatedly said they would like Arians to stay in Indy, though they understand why he would leave for another team. But they certainly didnt want a health problem derailing what could be Arians last best chance to fulfil his lifelong dream of becoming an NFL head coach. Arians has said he will listen to other offers, though he is happy in Indianapolis. The Colts are expected to give him a pay raise and a new job title if he returns next season. Clearly, things werent the same without Arians during Sundays 24-9 loss to the Ravens. "I dont think people realize how unsettling all that was for Andrew (Luck)," the person said. "As a rookie in a playoff game, to all of a sudden have Bruce gone. Thats the guy who is talking in your ear, and then youre in the playoffs and all of a sudden thats gone. Its a big deal." Arians has mentored the likes of Manning, Ben Roethlisberger and now Luck. He won two Super Bowls as an assistant in Pittsburgh, served on Paul "Bear" Bryants staff at Alabama and has had a big part in two of the biggest turnarounds in NFL history -- the 10-game improvement of the 1999 Colts and Indys nine-game improvement this year. His only previous head coaching experience came during a six-year tenure at Temple in the 1980s. http://www.packersstore.us.com/Black-53-Nick-Perry-Womens-Jersey/ .

Following a lopsided 5-2 loss against the New Jersey Devils on Wednesday night, Paul MacLean told reporters that "theres a lack of focus, theres a lack of leadership and theres a lack of preparation" with his struggling team. That came on the heels of Bryan Murray taking the unusual step of going into the locker room at the Prudential Center and addressing the players himself.
