I like how the Packers make a big stink about people not requesting permission to talk to their assistants, then immediately after somebody does they deny.

Why were they denied the ability to talk to Chud? Rams may have screwed themselves something fierce.

They have him under contract, thus if they don't give permission for other teams to talk to him, then other teams can't, or they're guilty of contract tampering.

What are the rules for NFL teams granting permission to interview assistants?

Yesterday word got out that the Redskins had requested permission to talk to three assistant coaches from other teams about their vacant defensive coordinator position. They were granted permission to talk to 49ers secondary coach Ed Donatell and Chargers linebackers coach Joe Barry but were not permitted to talk to San Francisco defensive coordinator Vic Fangio. So what are the rules for NFL teams allowing their assistant coaches to talk to other teams about jobs?
The rule is pretty simple. A team can’t block an assistant coach, including a coordinator, from interviewing for and accepting a job as a head coach. All other moves, including from assistant coach to coordinator, can be blocked.
It’s not unusual for a team to let a position coach interview for a coordinator position and to let that coach walk if he gets the offer. Organizations that get a reputation for blocking their coaches from advancing their careers could well find themselves having difficulty in hiring good assistants. So they usually will go along.
Usually, but not always. A couple of years ago the 49ers denied Donatell permission to interview for the Saints’ defensive coordinator position. This year they are letting him talk to Washington. The Titans have denied tight ends coach Mike Mularkey permission to interview for the Bucs’ offensive coordinator position.
It gets a bit trickier with lateral moves. There are good reasons for the 49ers not to want Fangio, who has led one of the NFL’s best defenses the last four years, to get away to another team in their conference. But couple of years ago the Redskins let special teams coach Danny Smith take the same job in Pittsburgh even though he had a year left on his contract.
So, with the one exception of someone getting a shot at the top job, a team can deny permission for its coaches under contract to talk to other teams for any reason it chooses, or for no reason at all. But they had better be able to deal with the consequences that may follow if they deny too many of their assistants opportunities to advance.

I don't believe they can block it unless the Rams' designated position for Chud is deemed a lateral (i.e., no promotion) move. If the Rams were hiring Chud to be head coach, they couldn't block it. However, since Chud served as a offensive consultant or such, the move to OC is probably regarded as only a lateral move.

NFL Rules for Interviewing Assistant Coaches
By Kurt Johnson, eHow Contributor

NFL teams must follow the rules when interviewing other teams' assistants.
The National Football League seeks to protect the integrity of the game and its member teams by putting in place rules regarding one team's contact with another team's assistant coaches for the purpose of setting up job interviews. The distraction to a team when its coaches are interviewing for jobs elsewhere can be immense, so the NFL limits the type of contact and the timing of that contact.

How to Become a Strength Coach for the NFL- The Rooney Rule
- The NFL has a policy in place that seeks to increase the number of minority candidates considered for available coaching positions, particularly head coaching positions, through the Rooney Rule. The rule requires any team with a vacancy in its head coaching position to interview at least one minority candidate before hiring anyone for the job. This rule often does not achieve its desired result as teams hold token interviews with minority candidates before proceeding to hire the person they wanted to bring in all along.
- The NFL does not differentiate between levels of assistant coaches in its rules regarding their availability to interview with other teams. Whether the coach is a defensive line coach or an offensive coordinator, the rules are the same. If a team wishes to interview an assistant coach who is still under contract with another team for its head coaching position, the current team is required to give permission for the interview as long as it happens between the end of the team's season and March 1. After March 1, teams can still ask, but the current team is not obligated to give permission.
- An NFL team cannot interview an assistant coach who is under contract as an assistant with another team for the following season without the permission of his current organization. Teams will usually give permission upon request, particularly if a lower level coach is set to take an offensive or defensive coordinator position elsewhere, but the current team is not required to give permission.
- Teams may not interview assistants from another team for either a lateral move or a head coaching opportunity during the season. The lone exception to this rule comes when teams want to interview assistants for head coaching jobs while the current team is in the playoffs. As there is an urgency to hire new head coaches for some non-playoff teams, the NFL does allow teams to request permission to interview a postseason participant's assistants during the wild card week for teams who have the bye that week. They can also request permission to do so during the first week of Super Bowl preparations as long as there is a two-week break between the conference championships and the Super Bowl. The team only has one chance to talk to the assistant coach, once permission is granted, before the coach's team is eliminated from the playoffs.
