  1. Tell that to Chip Kelly.... they got clowned by "TRESSEL BALL" :neener:

    The soon to be NEXT HC of YOUR INDY Colts... :banana:

    The vacated game was against Arkansas, actually, but good try.

    He might be the next coach, but in two years you'll be calling for his job. I guarantee it. Also, this might be the worst thing that could possibly happen to a young quarterback that gets drafted by the Colts. Look at Tressel's QB products: Craig Krenzel, Justin Zwick, Troy Smith, Todd Boeckman, Terrelle Pryor...world class lineup, right there.

  2. You might be joshin," but in case your not, you just did (comment on it, that is).

    I guess I'll spell it out.

    The Fish made the comment that since Saturday won't have to pay Manning, he shouldn't offer his opinion. I made my comment sarcastically, since The Fish also doesn't have to pay Manning. I was trying to point out the irony of a person who comes on the internet to offer their opinions on football calling someone else (who actually has more stake in what happens than any of us do) for doing the same thing.

  3. Jim Tressel would be a disaster hire for the Colts. I know a lot of you say, "I don't watch college football, but he seemed to be a great coach." Let me try to explain why he wasn't:

    1. His playcalling was extremely conservative. If you think Caldwell lacked aggression, you will find that Tressel is not much better, and possibly worse.

    2. He underachieved at OSU. Sure, he got to BCS bowl games coming out a pretty weak Big Ten conference, but when he ran up on an SEC school, his teams usually got waxed. Heck, there was even talk among some OSU fans that I know about wanting Tressel out because of his teams' tendency to choke in bowl games.

    3. He won games because he had superior talent. Ohio is a hotbed of good college football players, and Tressel was a good recruiter. It was a perfect match. He was able to lure the best players to OSU, and he won games. Unfortunately, his prowess as a recruiter would not help us any way.

  4. Jeff isn't liable to pay 50 million to someone who may or may not be able to contribute, he should probably stay off of it. He's openly considering retirement, if he wants to play with Peyton just say that. This whole Peyton should be the QB until X isn't how things work, and "things" are all ready happening. I don't mind the sentiment, but this doesn't really help.

    Yeah, I agree. Anyone who doesn't personally have millions of dollars at stake over the Manning decision should just refrain from commenting on it.

  5. Mike Zimmer is a great candidate. I wish the Colts would go on and make him an offer. Pete Carmichael is a decent option as well.

    Childress, Gray, and Chip Kelly, in my opinion, would not be good hires.

    The available coaches with NFL experience don't really form an all-star lineup. Cowher might be good, but doesn't look interested in returning to coaching right now. Gruden seems content to stay on TV as well, and he is pretty overrated as far as I'm concerned, although I know he's probably the flashiest hire out there. And let's face it, Dungy didn't retire from the Colts to come back and take the job again in 3 years, and he won't be offered anyway. Most of the other former head coaches were fired from their last jobs anyway.

  6. Alright folks, let's try to bring this topic back on track. This isn't the place for a political discussion. You can PM each other whatever you want, but in the public forum, please follow the rules and don't post about topics like religion and politics.

    'Twas a joke.

  7. So your saying that you have more freedom in Communist China? Imagine that....... The United States has the most laws of any country on Earth. The United States has more people in jail than any other country on Earth... Yet America calls themselves the land of the free...gif.gif

    Luck supporters hate America!

    Sorry, just had to...

  8. You're right. I just get this odd feeling that Manning wants no part of rebuilding or going forward with the changes going on. And with possibly Luck sitting there just waiting for him to retire. Just my opinion of course.

    I don't know. I get the feeling that Peyton wants to be with Indy, but he wants a commitment that the Colts are his team going forward. I think you're right on with the second part of your analysis. I don't think Peyton wants another QB breathing down his neck.

  9. It's pretty simple. If the Colts see that Peyton's nerves are regenerating and his ability to throw is not going to fall off from what it was previously, he will get his bonus and be on the team next year. If there are health concerns that indicate he won't return to game form, he won't get his bonus and will get released. People shouldn't read more into it than that.

  10. Well, at least John Fox isn't our coach.

    How many years has he been an HC, and only been to the SB once?

    The only reason he got to the SB was by riding the coat tails of Jake Delhomme, who had an excellent playoff winning percentage.

    Since Jake left for the Browns, the Panthers went down the tubes.

    They finally woke up and canned him.

    What coach continually starts a QB with a 40% completion percentage.

    It was obvious his team wasn't inspired today. How can that happen in a playoff game.

    He's a loser.

    Oh, and you've got to admire how BB gets fired up during a game.

    haha. I must admit, I never thought I'd see anyone get accused of riding Jake Delhomme's coattails.
