The Future of Caldwell and the Polians [Mega-merge]


1959Colts

Recommended Posts

According to Jason La Canfora and Michael Lombardi, Colts will delay the decision, depending on Peyton's status.

I still hope they won't delay the decision. We should start to prepare for next season with clear heads and a good plan.

Peyton is having his physical today, so they'd get some idea around dinner time?

Ask Mr. La Canfora and Mr. Lombardi.

They think Colts can win with Caldwell and Manning but cannot with Caldwell and Luck.

Manning could win with me as coach, they need to get rid of him and start with a coach that will be here after Manning to make the transition that much better in my opinion!

What in blazes does a terrible coach have to do with your QB? Get a non-inept coach regardless whether we have Manning, Luck, Orlovsky, Painter *shiver*, WHOEVER under center.

I have heard murmuring that Peyton supports Caldwell and wants him to stay. I'm not saying whether that is true or not because I don't know, but that might explain why Peyton's status might affect the decision.

If that's true, I'm hoping Polian and Irsay realize what's best for the franchise. Fisher is obviously one of the top coaching candidates for any team, and according to that article he's INTERESTED in coming to Indy. I think anyone would take Fisher over Caldwell anyday. If Polian and Irsay know what's best for the Colts, they should ditch Caldwell and give Fisher the headset.

What are your sources? I just have a hard time believing that Manning actually believes in the dipstick.

That was my understanding as well, but I don't recall what the source was.

What I DO recall is that it was from someone more reputable than some blogger.

I don't have sources. I'm not saying it is true. I heard some murmuring to that effect, but I would not consider the sources to be reliable sources. All I am saying is that if it is true (and that is a big "if"), then that might explain why they would wait to make a decision on Caldwell until after they can better assess Manning's status. That is pure speculation on my part with no real facts to back it up.

Understood! I really hope that is not true, im going to be sick to my stomach watching this clown coach another yr. for the Colts essentially ruining any chance of a comeback yr. IMO.

@jlandreth78 Honestly, I suspect Bill Polian is going to retire. Or at least that's what they will say. Just a guess.

All quiet at #Colts complex. Media clearing out. Waiting game begins. We know changes coming, just don't know when. Probably not today.

#Colts fans, I'm guessing owner Jim Irsay doesn't have all details sorted out yet. When he does, we'll re-convene at W. 56th St.

    • Ballard does have thick skin.  You just choose to not to see it that way.      Ballard is the face and voice of the franchise.  Irsay’s health does not make him an effective public face of the franchise.  Frank was OK, Steichen less so.   So Ballard does the lion share of teams PR.    And Ballard has always said he’d rather the fans be angry than be apathetic.  Shows they care.  Of course, you know this but choose not to acknowledge it because it undercuts your distorted view of CB.   I don’t know what CBs relationship is with Kevin Bowen who I like.   So let’s say it’s complicated.   But on balance I think Ballard has a good relationship with the local media.  I’d be surprised if he didn’t.  He is loved by national media.  He’s got a personality and a sense of humor.  I’m sorry you don’t care for it.    Of course you have yet to acknowledge that you and Moose literally said that Ballard didn’t know enough about Mitchell to know if he was a good guy.   For a man in your profession, THAT is a whopper.  Why you thought that is a mystery?   By the way, hope you notice that at least twice I’ve now said you’re smarter than you show.  There’s a compliment in there somewhere if you let yourself see it.    But I think you’ve painted yourself into a corner.  You come across as someone who’d rather be right about Ballard being bad even if it means the Colts do poorly than be wrong and have the Colts do well.    The reason Irsay hasn’t fired Ballard for the teams record is because Irsay approved of what CB was doing in real time.   Believe what you want but Irsay has done the GM job himself so he knows how it goes.  And he has chosen to keep Ballard.  Unless you don’t like Irsay too, you might want to consider that.  Life is more fun being optimistic than negative.     Sorry this went so long.  
    • I think it’s backwards.  MPJ is definitely Reggie based on skill set and tendencies.  AD can become Marvin with his explosiveness.   Raimann - I think he’ll be Castonzo.  Ol reliable, underappreciated, majority won’t realize how good he was until he’s gone.   AD - if he becomes what we think he can, Ocho Cinco.  Cocky, competitive, but will perform his butt off and will dance every chance he gets lol   Jelani Woods - Jimmy Graham, fast for his size, walking mismatch.
    • speaking of which, I’m about to win some good money.  I bet that brown would be FMVP, the Celtics would win the series, and it last at least 4 games.  
    • more reason to believe that after the top 3 wide receivers, Latu was their guy.  To not accept an offer to move back ONLY 4 spots and gain a top 100 pick is hard to do.  Bet if the rams through in a second instead of a third we might’ve took it.   think about it, if you move back 4 spots you’d still have a shot at one of the two top corners or even Dallas turner.  And we said no thanks, we want Latu.
