[Report : Jim Irsay Wants Jim Harbaugh to Coach Colts]

Kind of misleading.  King is just recirculating a rumor that has been around since Harbaugh was on thin ice in SF.

Disagree, Peter usually checks his sources for rumours and doesn't typically "recirculate" old stuff. Last year the whole chase was for Gruden not Harbaugh.  In the very least, they will reach out and imo, Harbaugh will decline.

[Report : Jim Irsay Wants Jim Harbaugh to Coach Colts]

Usually Id dismiss as unlikely but Peter King is probably one of most reliable sources in the NFL.

Indianapolis, ideally, wants a long-term partner for Andrew Luck with a presence to coach the entire team, not half of it. The rumor that will never go away is that owner Jim Irsay longs to hire old Colts QB Jim Harbaugh as his head coach. But the domineering Harbaugh, I believe, would be an ill fit with Luck and GM Chris Ballard

 

I do think Jim wants a big hire, if he gets it or not is a different question. Jim Harbaugh would be my number one choice, I just don't see him leaving though.

 

 

[Tony Donahue: It's very possible that Luck never plays again]

"This guy confirmed that Peyton Manning was going to be GM, Grigson wasn't getting fired, TY Hilton would be traded, Saban would be the new HC this year, Gruden would be HC this year, and Manning would buy the team."

[GM Candidates, including Jimmy Raye (merge)]

Can someone tell me why Elliot Wolfe is considered such a hot candidate?   Green Bays roster isn't impressive but this guy seems like a hot candidate this year.   How come?  What's so impressive?

[GM Candidates, including Jimmy Raye (merge)]

I know this might not be a popular opinion, but I hope Irsay considers Scott Pioli.  His work in KC was under appreciated, and he is making a difference in Atlanta.  It's interesting how GMs never get second chances like Coaches. 

[Rumor central -- Pagano and Grigson reports, 1/16 (merge)]

Letsknockemdown about to break major colts news on twitter. Let's hope it's legit. The accounts been accurate so far.

[Rumour: Irsay Considering Firing Grigson, Keeping Pagano, Hiring Jeff Saturday]

Saw it on doyels timeline, but i like.  Really like.  Saturday in a Elway type role.

[Chuck's Last Game.....]

Even with the issues ive had with him as a coach, now that it's time to say farewell, I can say that im going to miss him as a person.  His hearts in the right place, and I hope he gets another oppurtunity where can actually coach without all the dysfunction we had last few years.

[Hindsight : 20-20 Would you have paid TY Hilton?]

Sorry mods, can you please fix title, hard to spellcheck on Iphone5.

[Hindsight : 20-20 Would you have paid TY Hilton?]

His contract was 65m/years 39 guaranteed.  I think we would have been better off letting him walk for that kind of money.  Sure he has the numbers, but I think thats more of a product of QB then talent.  He is good wr, just not worth top tier money.  I think this contract will handicap the next GM(hopefully) as well.

[hilton, dorsett, moncrief vs harrison, wayne, stokely]

GOAT depends in Criteria. If you're talking about production then who would rank Emmit Smith as #1 RB of all time? Not many. Same with WR, to me it was Moss then Rice then TO.

[Gregg Doyle: Super Bowl or bust for Indy]

That's a huge discredit to the rest of the team.. Luck helps a bit but lets not overglorify the guy, especially with his previous playoff performances. Manusky is the ONLY one I can put a flier on with being on the hot-seat.

Without Luck 3-13 Roster. Take it to the bank.

[If Tannehill Got 96 mil, and Wilson will get more...What will Luck get]

Who knows. If Luck doesn't believe in needing to sign for all that money he wont. His agent will listen or have to talk to his sister.(Luck's mom)

Thats fan mentality. Luck is going to get largest contract in NFL history, and he'd be a fool to not take every penny. He's earned it.

[What do these years have in common for the Colts?]

Top 5 passin offense

[AFC Championship game predictions (merge)]

49-14 patriots

[Why doesnt Andrew ever get hurt?]

All QBs get beat up and they miss some practices...show up on the injury lists..

Miss games....play hurt

Nobody gets hit more than Andrew Luck...we've all seen it

Is he like 'Captain America' or something?

To my knowledge..Andrew has never missed a game or practice..in 3 years.....right?

Its a simple question, I admit .........but how does he do that?

hit the gym.... Same reason tebow was so durable.

[We play New England if we win]

Prepare to be outcoached at NE if we win tomorrow.

[Ray Lewis gave the Colts a pep talk]

..and me. I mean if the Colts and Ravens meet next week...where does Ray speak?

Ray is freshly retired Raven......why would he pick him to speak... I wonder what Reggie was thinking (Peyton and I beat you all the time...LOL )

yet he has more rings than both of them....

[Jerry Hughes]

I'm guessing it's not common for players to convert.

he alreafy failed at 3-4

[Would You Support Bringing Rex Ryan in as DC?]

Right. I just loooooove getting blown out. Thanks for that genius insight.

And you may get your wish.

But we have no pass rush. Without Mathis we've been manufacturing one with lots of blitzing. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't. And you saw what happens when it doesn't. But we don't have much talent on that side of the ball.

Manusky has been working with smoke and mirrors all season. If he pays the price, then so be it. But the front office hasn't given him much to work with.

And I haven't been saying that this week.... I've been saying that since I showed up here two and a half years ago.....

Look at Manusky's history.....Theres a reason he wasnt kept by chargers

[Would You Support Bringing Rex Ryan in as DC?]

I think we can all agree, Pagano will still be most likely given at least another year. However, I purpose if Rex Ryan doesn't get a HC job , we replace Manusky with him. Thoughts? Any chance it happens? He will bring an much needed attitude for this defense.

[This Team has a Coaching Problem/Fire Coaches (Merge)]

We have no business having one of the worst O-Lines in the league. Grigson has failed badly in this area. That alone is reason to be on the hot seat. You have to protect your biggest asset

Again, our Oline was effective with Shipley at center.... Even if we blame Grigson for Oline, what about defense? Isn't that supposed to be Paganos signature?

[This Team has a Coaching Problem/Fire Coaches (Merge)]

Coaching is a problem, but the system the coaches want to run would work fine if we had an offensive line.

About the Oline.....Why is Shipley riding the bench?

[This Team has a Coaching Problem/Fire Coaches (Merge)]

Let me ask you which is the best team we have beat all year? Okay which elite team have we been competitive against? Another one and done season. Book it.

Get rid of Pagano, this team is winning not because, but in spite of coaching staff. Would love someone like Harbaugh but that isn't happening. I hope local media can ask tough questions, we have been unprepared too many games this season.

Also what is the logic of 3 straight runs(run on 3rd and long) and asking your punter to throw? I know it was dropped, but just looking at logic behind that

Edit: also for those saying team had nothing to play for, so that's why they an egg. That's still on coaching....Also why play starters if there's no effort/heart?

This team didn't have much talent in 2012, but Arians knew how to get the team to play hard.

[stop overreacting people]

This game obviously wasn't important yet some of you act like its the end of the world
