If he wants to and the Colts want him back sure, but if not let the man enjoy his retirement.

He doesn't work for the jets anymore
I once scored four touchdowns in a single game to clinch the 1966 City Championship for Polk High

Moore worked for a few weeks with Andrew Luck to help him on coverages and reading defenses, etc. He stated at that time that he would love to work with Luck. I would love for him to come back and work with Luck. His knowledge of football is vast and detailed and invaluable. Grigs and Arians would be a fool not to bring him in. As a consultant, he would not be stepping on any toes. Pay the man.

Tom Moore will be 74 this year. It's time to let him enjoy his retirement. He's been trying to walk away from the game for three years now. Gotta find the next Tom Moore.

Tom is great and did wonderful things here. I wouldn't be ardently opposed to him coming back but.....dude is old. Folks that old can be quite unstable and mental faculties slip at that age. I'm not trying to sound overtly ageist, but facts are facts. People start to slip at 70+.

In what capacity are you suggesting he return?
Just as a consultant? Don't seem like he would be much help IMO. He is not going to be calling plays or anything like that so I see no need for him to return. IMO, Moore's last couple yrs. here his play calling became very stale and predictable.

Thankfully still have 10 years left to me to think, lol. Only kidding , not upset or offended.
I agree he was a fabulous coach and mentor, but let him retire and enjoy it.

No offense intended. I don't mean to insinuate that people over 70 cannot manage to put their pants on in the morning. Coaching in the NFL is a 15 hour a day stress-out that kicks the rear of even the youngest coaches.

Not a huge priority to bring him back. Arians was Peyton's QB coach and helped him develop/adjust to the NFL game, and he did the same for Roethlisberger. And Tom Moore himself has said that Arians is a very good coach and that Luck will be in good hands with Arians coaching him up.
When Bob Sanders executes a push up, he does not push himself up. He pushes the world down.
When Bob Sanders was 12, a cobra bit him in the leg. After 4 days of excruciating pain, the cobra died.
Tom Brady can throw a football pretty far. Bob Sanders can throw Tom Brady even farther.

He was forced out the door by the Polians, from what I understand.

With how much he is raving about Andrew Luck Im sure he wouldnt mind. Currently he's stuck with the QB mess in New York with the Jets.

If he wanted to come back to us we could do worse than him to help run our offnese.
Thank You Peyton! I look forward to the day you come home and we get to do this good bye thing right!

In his multi-part interview with Tafoya, Moore said: " [Luck] fired me up when I was out there [working with him]. I was thinking, ‘Would I love to have an opportunity to coach this kid!’ He’s what you want. ”
http://profootballta...ever-look-back/
One interpretation is that Moore wants to have an opportunity to coach Luck.
Moore also commented on Luck's arm strength, which has been called into question by a number of critics including Phil Simms:
" He’s got plenty of arm strength. That’s certainly not a problem. Along with arm strength the biggest thing you need is anticipation. You’ve got to be able to throw to your receiver before he gets open. There is such a small window of opportunity in the NFL. If you wait until [your receiver] comes open, the defense will be there.
MT: So no concerns about his arm strength?
He has arm strength and great anticipation. He’s able to beat tight coverage – man-to-man where a defender’s right on you. And that involves accuracy. Those are the three most important things: arm strength, anticipation and accuracy.
MT: Can he throw the long bomb?
MOORE: Oh, yeah. He’s got great arm strength. He can make the long pass. And he’s got the ability to put some touch on the football and lay the ball over a defender’s head."
