I wonder if Haley and Sporano are golfing together tomorrow, or maybe they're all going out on Jack Del Rio's boat!

The Colts aren't firing Caldwell so I'd guess Spagnolo (sp?) is next on the block. I know he's only been there for two seasons but the current ownership group inherited him and did not hire him directly.

you are probably right. i'm thinking if the rams get embarassed tonight on mnf (even though no one will be watching) he'll be fired tomorrow morning.

Dennis Green just mentioned GMs have more power today and coaches like Cowher,Gruden, etc may not want to come back if GMs dont want to share power. Years past coaches had more power.

Thankgoodness BB is more than just a puppet;-)

That wouldn't surprise me either. Once the first one falls, it seems like it starts a chain reaction.

I'm hoping the chain reaction continues. colts play the thursday night game soon against the texas. maybe if we lose 70-0, caldwell will get fired! I wish BB had a clone...

wait i think i understand...Polian did make a bb clone except he forgot to put a brain in....that's why caldwell always has that expressionless stare.

Dennis Green? Lol. Where can you even hear him talking anymore? I didn't know he even gave serious commentary. Isn't he just kind of a big joke nowadays?

Also how would he even know inside knowledge about the NFL anymore because he's not even a part of the league anymore I thought.

I look at coaches like Belicheck and can't imagine them not having "enough" power.

Actually it started last week when the Jags fired JDR.

Then today the Chiefs canned Haley as we all know by now and NFLN is reporting that Sparano from the Dolphins has been fired.

Wonder who's next?

Good question....Spagnuolo in St Louis? Raheem Morris in Tampa Bay?

If the Colts front office has any inkling about firing Caldwell after the season they oughta just do it now unless they want table scraps after all these other jobs get filled.

    • It just seems like people have sold themselves the idea he was going to come out great this season which I think is and was completely unreasonable.   I hope to see some improvement by the end of the season, but I really don't expect a whole lot until sometime next season. AR has got so much catching up to do.   I mean, there's no doubt AR's struggles are affecting MPJ, but MPJ has never been a great separater and seeing a defender right besides MPJ is probably stopping AR from throwing his way at this point.   Also, to be clear, I'm not saying AR will DEFINITELY be great, but I do think we DEFINITELY don't know yet and people need to be a lot more patient with him.
    • They both couldn’t throw or work on footwork. To ignore this could be a possibility with AR is naive. Let’s see where he is by game 7. Especially when it looks like he went backwards  from last season.
    • Other than the fact that Luck was a proven NFL QB in his prime and that his shoulder rehab lasted 3x as long.   
    • His lack of experience was a well-known risk in drafting him and it's a big reason why some were skeptical (including me). On the flip side, it sort of seemed like people disregarded his lack of experience then in favor of things like potential and upside. But now he's struggling and it's showing. If anything, it's validated those initial concerns.   I tend to think WR drops following a QB from college to the NFL says as much about the QB as it does the pass catchers. But they need to do better. I think it will take a combination of improvements from both AR and the pass catchers.   Not sure if something is up with MPJ, but some "regression" this year was very predictable. At one point, I actually thought he might leave in FA when faced with prospect of re-signing with a run-first team and a young QB who is still learning how to throw short and intermediate passes (the area he operates). But he stayed...and I am glad he did. But if it continues, there are going to be a lot of people blaming MPJ, which is pretty ridiculous, when you think about just 6 months ago, people were talking about how great of a contract it was and that MPJ was a legit WR1 with AR.  
    • Last week,Rams home game, Sofi looked like a 49ers home game. Dallas and Vegas are that way too.
