People need to realize that a lot of QB development comes from the QB coach. The job of an OC is to design game plans for opposing defenses by attacking their weaknesses. Most player’s physical and mental development is a byproduct of the work their position coach does with them.

 

Steichen has done a great job utilizing the strengths of Hurts’ game but I wouldn’t say he is the sole reason Hurts improved. The mechanical stuff is all Hurts himself and his QB coach.

I think a lot also comes from recognizing QB weakness and strengths and building the right scheme. That can mean a good head coach too.

I think I remember someone saying that Hurts took it upon himself to work with a QB guru last off-season and that greatly improved his overall game. 

 

I wish I could remember who that guru was, but I can't right now. I'll have to go look it up.

 

EDIT: It was Brady's coach, Tom House.

Exactly.  Real conspiracy's is how that stuff usually happens.  

 

I mean, we haven't really heard about anybody else "interviewing well", just Morris.  Steichen apparently hasn't had his second interview.    

 

So based upon certain "leaks" and "sources"  we are left to think that its coming down to Morris and Steichen.   Interesting how the minds have been guided.

 

  So You are left thinking it has come down to those 2. Well, i ain't that easy.

  Saying Morris interviewed well sounds like stroking the race type theory.

  That's all. Social media fodder trying to put pressure on to make owners guilty if they don't hire him. Sort of a big court case just waiting for this.

  MY final three now includes Wink and Callahan.

Who said that Morris interviewed well?  Nobody with any authority has said it?   Seems like his agent could be creating a narrative for setting up the Colts for a Complaint when they hire somebody else.

Must be 3 agents creating narrative; Morris, Glenn, Wink

No troll, hear we go again I see. Just an opinion and or observation like we all have here right? Guess not allowed? 

 

  Good grief dude, they haven't interviewed every candidate in full yet!

 How can you hire someone till you have?  Oh, the first guy that has a good interview hire him. ok

  And your posts are consistently negative, like a troll.

"Leaking"  (or just plain making it up) that Morris interviewed well...sort of makes it an especially bad look if Irsay hires Saturday over a black candidate that interviewed well. 

 

It certainly does make it more difficult to hire Saturday now.

Ballard got burned by McD by letting it leak that Josh was hired before the contract was signed.  I don't it being leaked this time that an agreement has been reached prior to Steichan signing a contract.  

 

If he is the hire, does he sign a contract on Saturday to Monday allowing him to not report to work until after the SB?  I suppose.  But the idea that he is the guy before the deal is finalized isn't going to happen this time, IMO.

Yeah that is why if I see there are third interviews I won’t freak out. It could just be they are covering their butts and waiting to offer until SB is over for Steichen. Then there is no way it can leak out.

      AFC defensive player of the week?

      By crazycolt1 · Posted

      It's understandable for some fans to be frustrated when the team loses.  Some seem to take it way too serious and or personal.  I been a Colt fan for a very long time and have seen the best and worst of times.  What good does it do getting bent over grown men getting paid millions to play a game?

      A few roster moves

      Here’s a fun exercise! Let’s go over a list of players who have signed, or re-signed here after actually hitting free agency (if top free agents don’t want to come here then surely they don’t stay after hitting FA, right?) and where they have ranked in those free agency classes from credible media outlets!    2012 (Per CBS Sports top 100) Reggie Wayne (Re-signed) -22 Cory Redding - 39 Samson Satele - 68 2013 (Per NFL[dot]com top 85) Gosder Cherilus - 46 LaRon Landry - 57 2014 (Per NFL[dot]com top 101) Hakeem Nicks - 22 Art Jones - 32 D’Qwell Jackson - 49 2015 (Per NFL[dot]com top 101) Andre Johnson - 20 Frank Gore - 29 Trent Cole - 31 Kendall Langford - 64   2016 (Per NFL[dot]com top 99) Patrick Robinson - 79   2017 (Per NFL[dot]com top 101) Jonathan Hankins - 11 Jabaal Sheard - 29 Jack Doyle (Re-signed) - 61 John Simon - 64 Darius Butler (Re-signed) - 100 Margus Hunt - 101   2018 (Per anyone and everyone) None   2019 (Per NFL[dot]com top 101) Justin Houston - 8 Devin Funchess - 45 Pierre Desir (Re-signed) - 46 Clayton Geathers (Re-signed) - 63 2020 (Per NFL[dot]com top 101) Philip Rivers - 11 Anthony Costanzo (Re-signed) - 12 2021 (Per NFL[dot]com top 101) TY Hilton (Re-signed) - 33 Eric Fisher - 42 Xavier Rhodes - 53 Marlon Mack (Re-signed) - 79 Al-Quadin Muhammad (Re-signed) - 99 2022 (Per NFL[dot]com top 101) Stephon Gilmore - 12 2023 (Per NFL[dot]com top 101) Samson Ebukam - 58 Gardner Minshew - 95   2024 (Per NFL[dot]com top 101) Julian Blackmon (Re-signed) - 35 Kenny Moore (Re-signed) - 38 Grover Stewart (Re-signed) - 40   Regardless of how any of these signings actually worked out, it’s time to give the argument that top free agents won’t come here the old yeller treatment and bury it. It’s nonsense.

      Is Shane Calling Plays to Win Games or to Groom AR?

      By NewColtsFan · Posted

      Huh?   Are you under the impression that a head coach — any head coach — approaches all 17 regular season games like a playoff game?   They don’t.      So I don’t care what Wash is doing with Daniels, they’re not the same player.  Daniels is far more experienced than AR, so how Wash uses JD is going to be different than how Steichen uses AR.     So my point is that Steichen can try to do both….   groom Richardson AND win games.  It doesn’t have to be one or the other.  It can be both.  Sorry we see this differently.

      Because we have a GM who won’t really attempt to do business.    Ryan Grigson didn’t have a problem landing free agents.   Andre Johnson was a superstar when he came here. We didn’t know he was washed up until after he got here and he got out on the field.    Does the name “Frank Gore” ring a bell? At all? He’s only a hall of fame player, so maybe you’ve never heard of him.   Corey Redding signed here late in his career, and he helped get Pagano’s 3-4 off the ground.    Mike Adams came here and promptly made a pair of pro-bowls.    Gosder Cherilus was considered one of the best right tackles in the league when he signed here, despite how it turned out.    Ahmad Bradshaw came here before injuries derailed his career for good.    LaRon Landry was a heavily sought after free agent, and chose to come here to make the bank to buy his juice.    Erik Walden came here and far exceeded the deal he was on.    Art Jones had a lot of interest around the league when he signed here before injuries and getting hooked up with LaRon Landry’s juice dealer got in the way.   D’qwell Jackson signed here after being one of the league’s leading tacklers for the Browns and made a pro bowl that same year.    Hakeem Nicks signed here after starting a winning Super Bowl for the Giants and having a 1K+ yards and 10+ TD season. He had multiple 1K yard seasons under his belt on arrival.    What about trades? Vontae Davis came here in a trade. Glaze over it with the benefit of hindsight all you want, but Trent Richardson was 1 year removed from being the 3rd overall pick, and had put up 1K yards rushing as a rookie when he landed in town.     Hell, even Ballard has been able to land some high quality free agents when he’s actually been willing to make a deal. Philip Rivers and Stephon Gilmore didn’t wind up here because the league told them they had to be here.    The facts that these free agents all signed here aren’t untrue simply because you either don’t remember them, or just flat out don’t know them. Luckily someone writes these signings down somewhere for the sake of posterity, so we can look back on those official records and prove that they did in fact happen, despite the claims to the contrary.
