Jonathan24 Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 I saw that chuck doesnt know what his status is. After the meeting with Irsay it is still up in the air. I am thinking that Chuck will be back because he hasnt been fired yet or this could be another mismanagement by the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoColts8818 Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 This is Irsay. Could still be deciding what he wants to do. He let Caldwell dangle in 2011 but that will be hard to do this time because Chuck is a free agent he could go some place else if he wants.

chrisfarley Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 yes, you can be sure that a new coach is coming. there is no way Pagano will be back. Likely Grigson will fall too. I would put a 99.9 percent on pagano and a 70 percent on Grigson to be ousted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would it be "mismanagement" -- because the decision isn't being made (or announced) as quickly as some fans want? Obviously, the longer this drags out, the better the chance that Pagano (and/or Grigson) will be retained. But maybe Irsay's taking the temperature of the marketplace. After all, his choice isn't between Pagano and "The Ideal Coach." His choice is between Pagano and somebody else he could realistically hire. And maybe that's not such an easy choice to make. If the candidates he would prefer over Pagano are not available, then isn't keeping Pagano the best decision? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need to go after a knowledgeable savvy football guy who knows how to manage an NFL roster with a history of success as their next GM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VaAllDay757 Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 I see it like this me personally I don't want chuck to leave but if manusky stays with chuck then chuck must go because manusky can't manage this defense right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I think too much is being read into that. That's not how it would be reported. It's a speculation of who the Colts might hire in the event that Pagano is fired.

IDK what the typical thing is. Let the contract run out? Or fire him. Maybe that's what they're discussing? He cannot interview for a new job if he's under contract IIRC. That would be pretty low of Irsay though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why are you pretty sure he'll be back? I'm not "pretty sure" of anything at this point. And I don't think anybody should be. Even Pat McAfee is admitting to refreshing Twitter -- which suggests that he's not sure of anything. Yes, the delay is a positive sign for Pagano (if not Grigson). But that doesn't mean he won't ultimately be let go. It just means that no decision has been made yet. It's amazing how impatient we've become as a society.

I was just watching NFL.com and they call this very peculiar so it's just a wait and see.... but these types of delays would usually favor the coach. Coach comes back under the arrangement that Grigson leaves him to the coaching. Problem is, we know what his coaching is like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
