He’s been dismissed or fired from multiple organizations in his time in the NFL. He didn’t even call the plays in Philadelphia and yeah I think he isn’t going to be successful in Indianapolis.  I don’t see why you bring up a snake like McDaniels.  Just because he’s a winner with no integrity doesn’t make me feel any better about going with a loser who has integrity.  They are both pretty awful options.  Do you disagree?  Do you think Reich is going to return the Colts to greatness?  If so then say so and if not are you just upset that I’m not a delusional fanboy that just falls in line? I don’t think the Colts will be a successful team under Reich. That is my opinion. I hope I am wrong but only time will tell.

He has a Super Bowl ring.  How is he a loser?

As far as I can tell from Google it appears Bevell is the clear favorite for the Giants job. Why do we think hes still coming here?

He could have signed with the Giants weeks ago.  I think he was waiting on the Colts to see who we hired. There are also reports we have also been talking to him for weeks.  I'm thinking he's coming but what do I know.

Eagles coach Doug Pederson’s statement on Frank Reich: “Frank is a tremendous coach and very deserving of this opportunity. He was a valuable member of our staff and we have all benefitted from working with him over the last two years. As good as he is as a leader and teacher, he's an even better person. We could not be more excited for him as he takes this next step in his career and we wish him and his family all the best."

Look, every single Dungy supporter hats off to you, your opinion, hats off to you. I didn't/don't hate Dungy I'm not sold on another guy with a "Dungy" PERSONALITY. At least when DSungy did coach he had manning on Offense and Bob (when healthy) on defense to light a fire/get into players faces to hold them accountable, whether in practice or a a game. This Colts team does not have that type of PLAYER character on its team and here we go again with another soft spoken, X's and O's guy just like Pagano.. I wish everybody on here would see through the garbage that's been the Colts over the last few years and even in Dungy's years regarding these Colts teams. They we're regarded as soft during Dungy and regarded as soft and lacking heart under Pagano. And yet here we are again!!!! So if you're one of the many who enjoyed "Soft" Colts teams and under-achieving, Regular season Hero's, can't get motivated/stay motivated enough to play a full game than by all means let's Party because Frank Reich's in town!! Woo-Hoo

 

I seriously hope I'm 1000% wrong about this guy as I want the Colts to achieve in every facet, but I'm not sold on this guys passion as a leader. He reminds me at first glance like a room decorated in average wallpaper, easy to clean off and okay on the eyes yes, but not really having any pop

 

You nor anyone on here has any clue what Reich's personality type when head coach of an NFL team will be, nor how "soft" they will play.

 

And Chuck Pagano being an Xs and Os guy?  That's a howler.

I believe he was on the Colts’ Dungy or Caldwell staff if I remember correctly.

Both.  He started as a coaching intern in 2006 and was the QB coach in 2009 & 2010.  He also served as the wide receivers coach during Peyton's last year with the Colts (his injured year).  Reich was on the coaching staff when the Indy Colts made their 2 Super Bowls appearances (2006 & 2009).

Out of curiosity,  who did you want of the 3 candidates under consideration?  I imagine you'd feel better about Dan "Macho Man" Campbell because he is loud?  Personally, I think given all that has happened, the Colts coming away with a head coach with Super Bowl experience not just with the Eagles but also while with the Shoe is a win.  We will see soon enough how he is as a head coach.  But right now it's too early to judge the man on his passion or lack there of.  Loudness does not equate to passion.

      Potential/Average/Concern

      By RollerColt · Posted

      They make a heck of a lot more money than I do. Even those on the practice squad are making life changing money.    To be completely honest, as an educator I feel more like trash nowadays. One of those moments where I feel like I’m failing as a man, a husband, a father and a teacher. I would absolutely never consider an honest working NFL player as trash.

      Food for thought… Once again, you continue to be your own worst enemy.     The Colts overall TE room is loaded with young players most of whom have had very little playing time for a variety of reasons.   So if you want to say the room might not be ranked high, that’s fair.    But you don’t say that.  You call them “trash”.  Why you feel that’s appropriate is a mystery.   Whenever you try the internet tough guy approach it typically blows up on you.     No one is trash.     You ignore the last three years and the QB and HC carousel the Colts have dealt with.  All of which has impacted the Colts weapons, especially the TE’s.   Ballard has publicly talked about how promising he thinks his TE room might be.   Woods, Granson, Ogletree, Mallory and MAC.    Only MAC is questionable and that’s because the salary hasn’t matched expectations.  But the first four?   All are promising.   They’re just young and looking for opportunity.  But they are NOT trash.     There’s a difference.

      Some of the coaches?   That sounds plural to me.   To the best of my knowledge the focus in this community has only been on one coach who may not be maximizing the players the Colts have.   And that’s the defensive coordinator.  He’s been a hot topic of conversation.  But I’m not aware of any other coach being viewed in a negative light.

      BREAKING: NFL loses HUGE in Sunday Ticket Lawsuit

      By RollerColt · Posted

      Insane that this has been going on since 2015. From what I gather it’s due to the NFL making Sunday Ticket too expensive on purpose so only a select amount of people can purchase it, forcing most to use CBS and Fox.

      2024 NBA, Pacers and all NBA talk

      By RollerColt · Posted

      Many are calling the Pacers pick of Furphy as a huge draft steal. Most projections had him in the top 20 of the 1st round, and even a few felt he could be as early as top 5!    That young man could be a huge contributor for the team next year.
