Colts fire coach Frank Reich after 3-5-1 start to 2022 season

It was only a matter of time since, if you fire the Offensive Coordinator and get WORSE, then the head on the block is the coach that thought they could do a better job.

And Irsay makes an absolutely brilliant hire to right the ship.

"From a short-term perspective, the Colts no longer have anybody on the staff with experience as an NFL offensive coordinator."

If Sam is fortunate, Saturday will tell him to just go be Sam and do Sam things.

"If Sam is fortunate, Saturday will tell him to just go be Sam and do Sam things."

With no offensive coordinator and a head coach whose only experience is three years coaching high school ball, that's pretty much all they would know to tell him.

Mr Irsay,

A Bill O'Brine on line one

Todd Graham on line two

Art Briles on line three

And Tom Herman is trying to call in but getting a busy signal!!!

Eric M. Bieniemy Jr. is standing on your front porch knocking on your door.

I worry that at this point they are just deliberately trying to finish 3-13-1 so they can draft Young or Stroud.

I think that's what most Colts fans are probably pinning their hopes on.

I feel bad for Sam. He walked into a dumpster fire, and that offensive line may get him killed this year. I hope he survives!

Sorta like Colt in Cleveland, without the a-hole HC.

From nfl.com--

"Indianapolis Colts interim head coach Jeff Saturday has made his play-calling decision.

Pass game specialist/assistant quarterbacks coach Parks Frazier is expected to be named the Colts' offensive play-caller, starting with Sunday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders, NFL Network Insiders Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero reported Tuesday, per sources informed of the situation.

On the one hand, Frazier has the most experience of any offensive coach left on the staff after Monday's dismissal of Frank Reich and last week's firing of offensive coordinator Marcus Brady.

On the other hand, Indy just handed the keys to its offense to a 30-year-old who has never called plays or been in a role higher than an assistant."

 

[Statalyzer]

Wait, what's Mr. Parks-Frazier's first name?

Saturday decided to start Ryan, and Colts won.

Saturday decided to start Ryan, and Colts won.

The Colts outscored the Raiders, but it had nothing to do with Ryan. The Raiders suck even worse than most imagined and Josh McDaniel has been exposed as a really, really crappy coach who doesn't even know how to use ingredients to bake the damned cake.

There are several coaching positions that SHOULD be the subject of vacancies this morning...Dallas being one of them.

Can’t say that loud enough. Still wonder where VY would be with a better coach.

This brings up a little trivia. Word has it during VY recruitment, LSU vs Texas, Nick Saban at LSU told VY he would never make it in NFL as a Qb but could be the best WR in history…..hold the flame throwers, just the messenger! SE dont come along very often, even a non Texas fan, can be a huge SE fan!

 

[Statalyzer]

Even Bob Stoops wanted Paul Thompson at QB and Vince Young at WR.
