Pretty much. I tell you what though. Pagano and Ed Reed have the American secondary playing great!

Much like Chucks pedigree while in Indy, his team lost.

Apologies again....    Been meaning to chime in here as well.

 

First,  remember,  Pagano has been drawing a paycheck by the NFL.   They may have asked to do what he did.    And also remember,  that a very big important issue for the NFL is the lack of African-American coaches in the NFL pipeline.    Not enough becoming coordinators.    Not enough becoming head coaches.     More losing jobs than gaining jobs.

 

I think it's absolutely great that Chuck hired a small army of former football players,  most AA, and basically spent time teaching them how to be good assistant coaches.    Classy move by Chuck.

 

And,  as usual, in a thread like this,  some of the anti-Pagano bashers surface to take silly shots at him.

 

His final regular season record as the Colts coach...    53-43,   and that includes only ONE season with a losing record.   His last season.     And a 3-3 post season record.     The idea that some here think hs pedegree while in Indy is as a losing coach reflects poorly on some fans,  but not on CP.

You're entitled to your own opinion.    Just understand that the facts DO NOT support your view.
