Jack Del Rio?

[neug3246]

I know it wasn't his best year in Oakland but its not like he got fired because of bad performance. It was because Gruden came out of retirements and it wasn't a well known secret that Oakland wanted to bring him back for a while now.

He lost the locker room in Oakland. His childhood team. 

 

I don't see him getting another shot at a head coaching gig. 

[chrisfarley]

I'd like him as a defensive coach somewhere in the organization.  He'd need about a MIL per year however.

[AZColt11]

As a DC, sure.

 

Actually, now that I think about it, he might be better than JMD anyway.  But I'd rather have Reich with Del Rio as DC.

Problem with that is we literally have a DC already.

Seen him for years when Peyton was here. Mediocre head coach. Gave him a top shelf QB in Oaklnd and he still was a mediocre coach.

He was the original wood chopper....

Yea, well we should literally already have a HC with the whole "come to terms" language and look where that got us.

Apparaently that DC is already signed and in Indy though.

DC is under contract, McDaniels agreed to terms. Different story altogether.

I’ll pass his teams are undisciplined and I don’t think he prepares and holds players responsible. His teams and defenses always lead the league in penalties.

JUST SAY NO

They should have  signed him on dotted line to get picks now. Maybe he did not like idea of Colts putting out press conference first or was Colts just dumb to do so before he spoke to pats again?

[IndySouthsider]

Damn, what’s with all the retreads? Del Rio?

The earliest they could have signed him was Monday. McDaniels agreed to the terms yesterday, went to clean out his office and say his goodbyes, and ended up meeting with Kraft and BB for hours. After which, he backed out of the job. There wasn't much the Colts could have done differently.

[Bert Johns]

I'll say this politely heck no. Loser

Do not want

the pickens are slim -- we got Krafted, remember?  a patriot coach accepted the head-coaching gig but apparently he was just joshin'

[Jaric]

I'd rather have Chuck Pagano.

He got fired because he fired his OC when the offense was humming and this year Carr regressed badly under the replacement.  He gambled and lost.

I know personally, I would prefer not to see Jack Del Rio, Jeff Fisher, John Fox, Mike Shanahan, or any of these retreads brought in. Let's find a young, up and coming coach and see what happens. Other than Shanahan, the other retreads are more than likely going to lead us to consistent mediocrity 7-9 or 8-8 year in and year out. No thanks!
