May the Schwartz be with you
Awww shucks I'm honored. I love you too. WE NEED A GROUP HUG GUYS.

Spin, your guy Chuck is back with the team. Are you thrilled? Irsay saw what happened with the Browns and said fuck this and tied both GM and coach together because continuity. I'm rooting for Ryan or Josh to land the number 2 gig next year personally.

lol Can you feel the love tonight
Ehh, shit year but whatever, I'm just gonna back it 100% from here on out.
2-5 with Luck who probably should've been benched for some of those games (not only for his performance but his health...) And 6-3 with back ups. Denver game was Luck's best of the year after Pep got fired, and then we lost Luck right after Chud started working magic with him.
Pagano is mid-low tier as far as coaches go, but he had the locker room, and is a natural motivator. He fought hard for his job, and if Irsay snorted some angel dust and believes this year was a bump in the road in a much bigger picture and better outcome then so be it. I think we need to can our DC Manusky, if he stays then I truly don't know what the fuck is going on. We were basically the Texans this year except we're less complete as a team and don't have as many young up and coming players. We also rely heavily on good QB play.
Believe it or not, I think Pagano did a serviceable job with a depleted roster, I wouldn't have kept him personally, but that would mean Luck having 4 different OCs in 4 years. Also, with how much the players love Chuck, I don't really know if they'd rally behind a new guy. Let's see how they handle the draft and the rest of this off season.

Goodnight all, and may I say, one last time: lolColts

Just give it time and your team will succeed. Keep in mind that fans are impatient but winning takes years. Hell look at Peyton Manning. Remember how the firing of Jim Mora and the time it took Tony Dungy to win a championship. Sometimes you get all the pieces and some team finds a way to cheat by holding your receivers all game. I don't think you need another DC as that wouild set your team back. Players have to learn a new system while trying to win games. It might be better to adjust the current system and get new players rather than an entirely different DC.
If Irsay is on Angel Dust then what is Haslam on? Motherfucker said fuck conventional wisdom, let me get innovative with a 3-13 team because I have the money to do so. NFLGAF, we need to find out what Haslam is on.

This is true love we're making
He looked at Dan Snyder's approach and said 'fuck it, I can do that but better!'
But I guess he didn't realize Dan came to the realization that he doesn't know fucking shit about football.

You're welcome friend. Anything for you.
I searched through last week to find that answer..
So.. We get Tom back to Ohio State when Andrew comes back home. agreed Texans-GAF/Cougar-GAF?
Goff or Paxton?
On the crazy train we go!
He'll become a leader in the locker room
Is he good bread?
No lies detected.
How long did it take Bruce Arians to turn around Arizona? Or Harbs to turn around the 49ers? With good coaches, you know right away. Maybe the wins don't come right off the bat, but basic dumb crap stops happening. The Colts still lose too many games by 20+ points to be a well-coached team

Wait
Pagano and Grigson didn't get fired, but rather got 3+ year extensions?
:jnnccccccc
I applaud the move.
Jeez, that was cold as ice.
They lost all but one game, but in the first eight games he had Keenan Allen. He was obviously missed later.
Felipe had double the TD's in the first half of the year than he did in the second. Keenan Allen Chargers MVP.
Chargers were a top tier team in terms of talent from about 2005 until 2009. It's still hilarious they fired Marty after a 14-2 record.
I dont get the hatred towards this man. I don't get how the owners of at least 15 teams in this league aren't begging him to come coach their teams. Sure, he hasn't one the big game but what he'd offer is better than anything they've experienced.

That man is a HoF coach and I know that he will never get in.
And it boggles the mind that they never fired Norv as he pissed away Super Bowl caliber teams consistently.

Dolphins news:
Buffalo Bills running back coach? Wut?

Buffalo Bills running back coach? Wut?
Did Arians have a lot to do with bringing in Palmer? To be fair to the Whiz, he had Kevin fucking Kolb at QB the last two years.
IMHO there are too many pieces to the puzzle to put that responsibility firmly on the HC. Last year Gruden looked like one of the worst coaches in the league. He had no GM, an idiot owner and a has-been QB in RGIII. This year, he has a legit GM and as you stated the "basic dumb crap stops happening" and Gruden looks like a competent coach.

This is racist and uncalled for!
You need to stop this hate, we are in the offseason, we should be friends now.
That's for BG to figure out. He's the QB whisperer.

On top of that I think it's tough to ask a guy to be great at a job he's never done before without any time to grow into the role. If you get hired as a new HC you are competing against guys like Belichick, Reid, and Coughlin; coaches who have been at it for a decade or more. And everyone has the same goal.
That's just how it is, though. It's the same way with QB, most promising young prospects are thrown straight into the grinder and expected to win, often with bad teams. If things go poorly they shoulder a lot of the blame, unfairly or not.

I was surprised you didn't make a pun or something with Coons's name or something.
Also BG, since we are moving on from Squicken's hero it appears .. Paxton or Goff?
Kave please, the fun is only now just starting
EDIT: LOL, Ez's boy gets a sweet new SI cover:
Stop the roller coaster, I wanna get off Rando.
There's a lot of factors which can doom a HC which are largely out side of his control. Injuries, crappy front office (both in terms of the draft and in cap control), ownership changes, internal politics (said crappy front office blaming everyone but themselves) etc.
Most of them don't get to the HC level without being pretty good coaches. Circumstances and how they react to those circumstances make or break them.

Paxton so you can love Justin Fuente and eventually become a VT fan.
For sure. It's not like Pete Carroll lit it up in NE back in the day, or even Belichick in Cleveland.
Kave please, the fun is only now just starting
EDIT: LOL, Ez's boy gets a sweet new SI cover:
It's... complicated.
But didn't Whiz trade for Kolb?
Eagles of course wasted the 2nd round pick they got in exchange but that had to be one of the worst all time trades.
I don't remember. That's hilarious though. Almost as bad as trading a second rounder for Bradford.
Don't worry about owning that charge, we got it covered.
Yeah, thing about that, I thought Pagano was our Jim Mora lol. But the one thing Irsay was right about is that Jim Irsay never made it to the AFCC and did not have 44 wins in 4 years (he also coached in what was a much better division at the time...). I still do not like his back handed comment about Polian, absolute bullshit. There is no comparison to be made between Polian and Grigson besides drafting a generational prospect, and accusing the Pats of cheating after getting their ass kicked. Polian crafted 6SB teams and built a team that had what was perhaps one of the best offenses ever, and was probably the best team the Colts have ever fielded. Don't give me some bullshit about Grigson being ahead on a four year head to head comparison and act like most of that wasn't Luck bailing us the fuck out.
It just screams insecurity, he continues to take shots at Polian and Manning for not winning more championships as if he isn't to blame at all... This is the same owner who pressed Grigson to make the Richardson trade. That is what happens when Irsay tries to take shortcuts to his championship team...
I don't think Pagano can have a Ron Rivera like turnaround, I just don't think he has it in him. Still don't think he can hang with the better coaches of the league either. Just gonna have to take it in stride I guess. But I think you guys were right, probably looked at the Browns and was like, "fuck that." Lol.
Bitch pls, you ain't shit!!
Go big or go Brown with your weak ass predictions!
Arians never had a chance.

Not even close. Bradford had shown something in college, won rookie of the year, and has shown more than Kolb ever did.
Kolb flashed for a 2-3 game streak, got a concussion, lost his job to Vick fresh out of jail, and then Arizona traded their starting corner and a 2nd round pick to the Eagles.
