McD has not let Patriots know he is leaving (Rumor)

[IndyNismoZ]

Watching the Superbowl pregame show and one of the gentlemen stated that....

 

"Patricia has informed the Patriots he will not be returning, while McD has in fact not" 

 

Take that with a grain of salt but man, will the McD may not come to the Colts quotes ever stop? 

 

Thought it was interesting though if in fact McD has not informed the Patriots he is leaving and it is Superbowl Sunday. Just something to keep our ears open to. 

[PrincetonTiger]

So the Colts have hired multiple assistants with ties to him for no reason

[aaron11]

maybe he hasnt told them

 

they are worried about the eagles right now, and doing their jobs today 

[IndyNismoZ]

I agree 110%. I believe he is most definitely our new HC. 

 

I was stating that I hate that the media continues to throw some sort of small shade on him being our new HC. Gets old. More of a rant but with some merit as well being it was stated on the biggest stage.

True truejust strange the media worded it as Patricia let them know and McD did not. Just getting old at this point. Ready for tomorrow or Tuesday.

It only matters when he tells them after the game anyway. Besides, they probably already know hes gone.

[Nadine]

it's all so confusing.  But, if he hasn't accepted a job, how can he tell them he's leaving?

[CR91]

god these rumors are endless. cant wait for tomorrow or tuesday for his introduction press conference and all this nonsense ends.

“Bill, I’m going out for a pack of smokes.  I’ll call you when I get back.   What’s that noise? You say it sounds like a moving truck?  Nah, it’s just the kids watching Velocity “.  

[MTC]

Who is this "gentleman"?

 

 

[GoColts8818]

Probably because the Colts and him can’t have a deal until after the season is over.  If McDaniels told them before hand it would mean the Colts and him have a deal which is handing the Pats, a team you got in trouble for deflate gate, a chance to go to the league and say the Colts violated NFL rules.  I think this is unimportant and more about the Colts making sure they dot their Is and cross their Ts.  Also things can always fall apart (won’t happen) but why say you are leaving until you have to if your McDaniels?

[Andrew Luck fan club]

Holy %. 

[Indyfan4life]

I wouldn't put any thought or worry into this. If Monday or Tuesday comes around and he hasn't been announced as the new HC, then I would worry.

 

For now, I think this is McD just worrying about the game at hand and letting the rest happen when it happens.

Relax... I am sure Ballard has got Dave Toub on "speed dial"

[Swan Ronson]

Oh look, another opportunity for people to wet their pants over nothing. 

[Fisticuffs111]

I've had this weird and completely irrational fear that McDaniels is going to back out at the last minute.

A coach would never accept the job and then back out at the last minute. Especially one that has been mentored by Belichick. Isn’t that right Jets fans?

Maybe...  but if Patricia has already told them then how would that work?

[Coltsfan0112]

Can this thread just be shut down. Shefter, Rappaport, and Mortenson has said Josh will be the new head coach. 

[Fat Clemenza]

To me me the only possible monkey wrench is he's waiting to hear Belichick commit to staying before he commits to leaving.

 

It's a real long shot, but there are several reasons Belichick might surprise people and walk away on Monday.

Funny. But technically, I thought B.B. never took the Jets job. It was sort of assigned to him by the Tuna.  I could be wrong.

He quit after one day. 

[IinD]

My patriot hate would grow by a thousand if he backed out somehow.

 

What would I do with my new visor?

Why do people want threads shut down?    If you dont want to read about it.... move along.... some people want to talk about it....    What does it hurt?

Pats would have to do something about it.  Odds are they wouldn’t because he’s really helping them so they have longer to think about a replacement but since the Colts got the Pats in trouble with the league why poke the bear and give them something they could use even if Ballard made peace over that?  That’s just one theory on my part. The more likely reason is McDaniels is thinking why tell them until I have to just Incase.

It doesn't not at all. There are plenty of threads I don't want to read doesn't mean I want them shut down.

Maybe they know Josh is leaving and actually asked Matt and he said yes....  I will assume the Patriots way is to not talk about anything that could be a distractions

He took the job, then resigned right before his introductory presser. Then he did the presser anyway.

Not click bait at all. Not how I roll.

 

 

[IndyNismoZ]

I am just as tired as the rest of you with all this talk. He is in,he is out. I just want it to be official and stop. 

 

That being said this did bring pause as to why Patricia informed the Patriots but McD did not.....  nothing more than a "HUH" moment for me. Just gauging everyone's opinion on this. Nothing more. 

[dodsworth]

Belicheck knows the move of the opposition before they think of

their move, but they don't know about this move? Yeah right.
