  1. I think the rejections are a little alarming. Not from a football stand point but more of a cultural stand. The Lakers before Magic joined comes to mind, big name free agents wouldn't even take meetings because they thought the Lakers were a mess. I do not want the colts to have a similar reputation. I dont think we are that bad yet, but have trending in the wrong direction. 

  2. Not a bit fan of Amendola, and I dont think the pats let solder walk. Most importantly while most coaches do like some of their own guys, the Pats are great because they can win with any guys. That is what I hope JM brings to the team, find those guys no one else wanted and make them household name for as long as they play for us cheap. Once they ask for that big money then they can walk away and we find someone better.

    I doubt Ballard would be able to give a hard percentage, considering the Colts are still a ways out. I doubt the candidate asks for a specific percentage either. They're more likely to ask whether he will play for 2018 and if his shoulder will affect his future, neither of which requires Ballard to go into blood flow and medical details.

    I agree medical details and blood flow is a little bit out there. However, if i am going to be s head coach and setting up off season schedules I would like to know the ball park chances of having my franchise player.  Of course my next question would be asking if we can go get Pat McAfee out of retirement.

    I don't blame them for asking. It's the first thing I expect candidates to ask. I don't expect Ballard to go into great detail about it. He'd probably say something like "Luck is doing fine", rather than going into specific medical details.

    I mean if it was me, i would ask something like what is the percentage wise that Andrew will be ready to go by OTAs or training camp? If Ballard answers that question it would answer a lot to me.

    Ballard isn't going to say anything like that because for one he isn't a doctor and wouldn't even know and two that wouldn't even come up in an interview.

    First I think luck is probably fine. But as for the interview if i was a candidate, i would definetly bring it up and at least ask the question.

    Pretty sure neither turned us down the Nagy thing turned out to be false and I'm pretty sure we decided not to meet with Wilks so how many have turned us down?

    Agreed. From everything that we have heard, which granted isn't much; no offer to anyone had been made. I do think there is a good chance a handshake deal was made with Josh.

    I didn’t see say SB win. I said contend for one. He almost made it before, it’s possible he could do it again.

    Technically every team is contending for one every year. And while we have made it to a AFC champ game.. that game wasn't even a close one. I just think it's early to say the odds are in our favor or even a favorite to make it to a champ game.

  8. I dont know CB personally or anything but he seems like an intense guy and i think he would make every one he interviews feel like he is all in on them. Feel like that would be the way to play it will all or most of our candidates fielding multiple offers.

    Sure but Bill is loaded he may want to relax instead of dealing with a whole new team and all the stress and I wouldn't blame him at all he has acoplished everything possible 

    Very true, gruden is loaded too and has a way more cushy job than HC. I think Bill is the type to still coach as long has he can put together a contender and have that kind of control somewhere else. I am sure he wouldnt mind playing the pats every year or something like that also.
