IndyColtsFan411 Posted 8 hours ago Share Posted 8 hours ago For those more plugged into the league than I, who would you like to see to replace Bradley when he gets fired? (All coaches get fired at some point - not saying this year) Personally, I'd like a younger up and coming defensive mind, what say you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Curtis Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago Age has nothing to do with it. I've always liked a more aggressive 4-3/4-2-5 Cover 2 on the back end with Man coverages underneath mixed in to keep Offenses guessing. With our current personnel being pure zone defenders...it would take draft or two and Free Agency to make a major switch to anything that plays Man. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AwesomeAustin Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago I don’t know enough of the position coaches on other teams to say who is worthy of promotion. Best to keep an eye out on head coaches on the hot seat and their staffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chad72 Posted 5 hours ago Share Posted 5 hours ago Packers fans can tell me about Joe Barry that was their DC from 2021-23. They were always in the Top 12-15 range in terms of points per game as opposed to the Colts. But the year 2021, the Colts were on par because we ran the ball well and possessed it well. Not so much in 2022, and 2023 was a bit of defensive regression for decent possession of the ball from Bradley’s unit. Brandon Staley is another name but I’d prefer Jon Barry for his units to generate pressure. Otherwise we’d have to look at college like Packers getting the Boston College HC. I’m a fan of Jim Leonhard that was a heck of a defensive coach / DC at Wisconsin, and is now a DB coach with Broncos. Dave Merritt, the Chiefs DB coach has done an outstanding job there and was interviewed for DC by 49ers. My pick would be Jim Leonhard or Dave Merritt. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IinD Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago If I'm guessing I think the zone thing we usually gravitate towards is because of boss man Jim. He always talks about those 70's Steelers teams with the cover 2. Yes we had a short stint with the 3-4 in the Pags days but we seem to always gravitate towards the 4-3 zone that doesn't move around much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indyagent17 Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago If it happens during the season, it would be a major upheaval. It may have a one or two game bump, but whoever is brought in want to bring his own coaches down the line. I agree they should be BRADLEY‘s last season but I get a feeling no matter how bad it gets. They’re not gonna fire them until the season is over then you can work on getting the guy in here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazycolt1 Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago If the Colts decided to move on from Bradley, I highly doubt it would be during the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
