Postgame reactions vs Texans (merge)

[coltsfanatic89]

Pagano and Grigson need to go and major changes need to be made across the board.

The dead man walking was his fault for not taking the one year extension.  He choose to gamble and lost big time. 

That offer was trash and you know it  

[OffensivelyPC]

You can always spot a fan that just started following the Colts in the past 6 months.

[Robin]

is it still possible to get to playoff and if how ?

[RealityIsLuck]

Exactly. Top 12 pick likely coming. Address OL, DL. Pass Rush, CB in the first 4 rounds and we will have 4 new impact players in 4 positions.

[JColts72]

We ran out of good play calling.

Sarcasm?  I'm hoping?

 

 

Hah, your guess is as good as mine. 

[deedub75]

I agree with all the OP said except the already talented team part 

 

[rpeay]

He sucks as a coach... he needs to go along with the rest of the entire coaching staff AND GENERAL manager....gut the defense backfield with the exception of Adams and Davis.  Draft a running back and left Tackle.  

 

[Indygal1218]

The bright side? That there is nothing more to hope for this season, thus conserving that energy for use in more promising ventures.

[alawai]

You could make a case of keeping the coaches/GM/and football support staff (to include scouts) but it's time to clean the house!

[sfergson727]

Uh....no.  Pags and Grigson need to be shown the door.  What good is a high draft pick when you have Grigson who will then use it to draft someone we don't need, and Pagano who will be his best buddy but otherwise make some rather odd (read stupid) coaching decisions and fail to prep him (and everyone else) for the game on Sunday.

[Pelt]

If grigson is still here to make the selection with that pick, I fail to see the bright side.

And not to hijack the thread, but I really wish someone would explain that to me. I only played through high school, but I'd be running laps until the cows came home unless I used my arms and 'wrapped them up' when making tackles. You'd think the pros would be able to do more than take a dive at some guy and hope he falls down.

 

Part of it is there are a bunch of * coaching youth football and part of it is trying to blow a guy up by diving at him looks better on film than making a sound tackle

What he has done with this team this year is nothing short of incredible.  Absolutely zero support from the front office and ownership yet he has somehow kept the team together all while being forced to play with a 40 year old backup QB.   

No he doesnt.

the team has now the draft which will be possibly a top 15 pick to rebuild the roster to an already talented team, we can get a new HC, preferably sean payton if hes available, and most importantly we can shut luck down for the season and give him 8 months to get fully healthy. this was a very tough season for all of us because we all had super bowl aspirations, but one must first face turmoil before facing success is my mantra. this team will only get better I promise you. the fans that truly bleed blue, stay true. we'll be back next season with a better team, a better HC, and we'll have a healthy andrew luck. I love the colts. Thank you for another special season.   

Yeah that's one good thing.  I can't imagine they could actually get worse.  All the injuries and lack of depth on this team, mind boggling coaching decisions over the year and the team continuing to look unprepared 9 out of 10 games I cannot see it getting worse next year. 

[JColts72]

Being objective, Pagano is not the greatest HC material but Grigs is worse as a GM. And his number 1 pick bust was out after his 1 yard catch with an ankle injury.

[RockThatBlue]

If going 6-8 and basically being eliminated from the playoffs is "keeping the team together" you must have some low standards for that.

[BigQandTheManiac]

What are you smoking?????

[VaAllDay757]

When you let weeden get off on your defense someone needs to fired immediately

No, please, hijack the thread. Seriously.

so there's a chance

[Mikemccoy84]

I think we will cut Aj, Cole, and let toler, Mathis and walden go to free up money for free agent linemen and draft all defense

[JColts72]

I think if both teams are 8 and 8 Indy gets in with tie-breaker ruling, but I would check on this.

We'd have to win out, and Houston would have to go 1-1, and then it's about tie breakers. If we win out and Houston loses out, we win the division at 8-8.

The have the head to head.

 

We have to win out.

They have to lose out.

 

This was the AFCS championship today.

 

And we didn't show up.

[CoachLite]

Colts need a complete house-cleaning - all coaches and GM. Hopefully, they won't hire any more semi-pro rookies - ever again!

I haven't even considered all the tie breakers, so you may be right, but how do they have the head to head? We're 1-1 against Houston.

 

Edit: Regardless, I just went to the playoff machine, and you're right. They can clinch with a win in either of the next two weeks.

No 'fire everyone' thread??? I must live in an alternative university...

I think I heard we have to win out and they have to lose out, but that could be wrong.

It was ridiculously unfair what the Colts did to him this year.  The players, staff, and fans all knew he was a "dead man walking" all season yet he somehow kept it together and made it to week 15 with a legit shot to make the playoffs with Matt freaking Hasselbeck playing quarterback.  

Wait. 

 

So so he turns down an extension and puts al the pressure on himself and were to reward him for his failure? 

 

Has ownership ever not opened the checkbook for this team?
