Suddenly I feel like we're living in some kind of M. Night Shyamalan plot twist.

[ColtRider]

Wow! Didn't expect this. Curious to see how long.

Chuck would have had multiple offers, and he's a coach players want to play for.  I don't buy the "we'll lose to teams by 40" etc.  it might take a healthy QB and a little time, but I'm good with this.

Same.

I think a coach Jim Irsay might have had in mind politely declined to join the Colts at this time.  For what reason (if my speculation is even on target) I am not sure.  Grigson?  Timing?  Need to see more promising players added from the next draft?  Other???

[Rally5]

Per NFL Netwok, Ian Rappaport.

[Jim H.]

Good lord.

 

[bababooey]

Everyone will return for the #Colts. That's coach Chuck Pagano AND GM Ryan Grigson.

[YourNextGM]

Yay,  were never going to win squat.  Lets party.  

[18Manning]

Hope they give Pagano some latitude this time.

WTH

I can't believe Irsay allowed this guy to talk his way back.. Something has got to change. New GM. New OL Coach. New DC. Something.. we can't possibly go into the 2016 with the same staff and expect to win it all.

Mike Pettine DC, Frank Reich QB Coach/assistant OC to chud

I am kinda happy and laughing at the same time. Funny.

[NBColtsFanatic]

God bleep it. What is wrong with Irsay?

[John Waylon]

Ian Rapaport is reporting that Grigson WILL return as well.

[adamthyst]

I'm happy for Chuck but I am baffled to see Grigson, the main problem, stay.

I guess it doesn't occur to you that we're getting blown out because we don't have enough talent on defense?

 

That thought didn't cross your mind once?

 

 

Offense 3&out wears out any defense. 

[MTC]

Wake me up in 2017 when we get a new staff and front office revamp. What a joke.

[riderprider47]

BOOOOOOOOOOOO BOOOOOOOOOOOO I WAS hoping Grigson was a goner. 

[SilentHill]

I'm meh on this, Grigson sucks, but Manusky is probably the worst DC in the NFL, he better be fired.

[Colts_Fan12]

Great call Irsay please get old and lose the team now 

 

because you SUCK

[COLTS449]

Na. This cant be true. Unless Irsay told Grigson he had to go all in for big name FA's instead of freaking losers.

[Nilescolt]

Won't matter if they keep greesy , should've fired both. Can anybody remember a time when the team played well all 60 minutes? They are rare as hens teeth. Sorry but nope not a good move now all colts fans have to look forward to next year is more mediocrity.

LOL.

 

What a joke.

#Colts also want to extend contract of GM Ryan Grigson, who has one year left on his deal. - Adam Caplan

[fatboy]

Manning?  Bye bye!  Reggie?  Adios!  I know there was no choice regarding Manning and Reggie was basically a shell of himself, but it's nice to have a "feel good" story on the front page for a change.

[Jules]

I think the fact the Colts went 8-8 with 4 different QBs made Irsay want to be patient for another season.

 

I think next year is do or die for them both.

 

I am somewhat glad the rumors can end now though. 

[SilentHill]

I'm going to cry....

 

 

[Rally5]

Well, what's done is done is done now, we have to hope Grigson learns from his mistakes and nails this draft. Which means to me prioritizing OLine, pass rush and defensive playmakers. On to the draft......

[NewEra]

Weird both would be staying considering the rumors 

[Buck Showalter]

Weird...

Sorta bummed...

[John Waylon]

I'm curious to see how the power structure shakes out now.

[Cynjin]

Well I hope they had a long talk on what their respective roles are.
