Let’s say reports are true that Indianapolis Colts coach Chuck Pagano was told by owner Jim Irsay that he would return for 2017. What exactly does that mean? Maybe something, maybe nothing, and not a damn thing in many workplaces. My experience professionally has been mostly restricted to media, but I have heard managers tell […]
There must be something else – an unseen chapter – to reports that the Colts are going too retain Chuck Pagano as the head coach of the team for 2017. And if Ryan Grigson returns as general manager, there is absolutely has to be a future Plan A that Colts owner Jim Irsay is currently unwilling […]
Robert Mathis is a borderline hall of famer as a football player, and he will play his final game as an Indianapolis Colt this Sunday at Lucas Oil Stadium. Robert Mathis is a definitive hall of famer as a force for good in Indianapolis – a man who has used his position as a professional […]
That damnable moment comes for almost everyone. A meeting is called, a door is closed, and the news is imparted short and sweet, “Today is your last day.” It’s a very public event when an NFL head coach is told his services are no longer required, and it can also be quite lucrative. The cash doesn’t help cushion […]
The predicted bounce back season of the 2016 Indianapolis Colts ended yesterday with a thud, and now we are left to figure out what the future holds for the franchise that less than two years ago was seen as a Super Bowl favorite. Failing to meet expectations is a great way for a coach and general […]
Well, that’s that. A long season filled with ups and downs, and it all came down to a screen pass dropped. Maybe it’s a good thing in the end. Better to end all hope than perpetuate an unrealistic dream – at least for the fans. There was some idiocy from the officials, even after a […]
The reflex is to see Indianapolis Colts inside linebacker D’Qwell Jackson as a selfish oaf for using the performance enhancing substances that caused his four-game suspension. Jackson will be hammered locally for improving his body through chemistry because now he’s unavailable to the team for the rest of the regular season as they fight for […]
The 5-6 Colts against the 3-8 Jets on Monday Night Football is not going to set the world on fire. Andrew Luck is the highest paid player in the NFL, and he’s relatively well known. The Jets are a big deal in New York no matter their record, so the ratings might be oddly respectable for such […]
The Colts win ugly, and lose uglier. Today, they lost the the Kansas City Chiefs 30-14 in a game where the team that backpedalled the slowest won the race – again. Today’s loss to the Chiefs was virtually without redeeming value. Turnovers, drops, penalties, and an extended Nick Foles sighting made this yet another game […]
It had to happen eventually – the Colts have become the type of team they used to mock. For a generation, the Indianapolis Colts were the team that made others pay late. Extraordinary comebacks were routine. The rest of the AFC South gritted their teeth as Peyton Manning and Andrew Luck snatched victory from the jaws […]
