Steichen would be an idiot to go to the Colts.

Man do I disagree with you. Not that the Colts are in a ton of trouble and have been just floating without a rudder for it seems like well over a year, they have. There are highly motivated types out there that love a challenge and believe so deeply in themselves that an opportunity like this won't scare them. Personally I like Morris better but then again I A) don't know shit about being a head coach and B)have met exactly zero of the candidates.

There is enough talent when everyone is healthy, they can compete. There are weapons on offense. There is a good defense in place. 2/3 of the kicking game comes back, they need a FG kicker.

And, they have an owner who will give them time to build a team.

Anyway yeah, I think he was one of the favorable candidates.

Agreed, and I'm sure McDickface covered up his doucheness well. The thing was though he had 3 obvious red flags that he was an asshole: the disaster in Denver from his previous HC job where his ego was a huge problem, he was caught spygating in Denver, and he was a Belicheat disciple. A reasonable person would be suspicious of him going into the interviews, so I would suspect Ballard to have been as well.

Oh well, water under the bridge. And we're better off that McDickface bailed on us anyway b/c he's proven again in LAV that he's a horrible coach (can't believe he still has a job there).

Most people (not all) would try to put their best foot forward in an interview and try to smooth over any rough patches.


I think where Ballard went wrong with that hire was trusting his agent too much. Remember that Ballard's agent also represented McVisor. I would bet that Ballard asked his agent some questions to gather some intel about McVisor and was expecting candid feedback. Anyways the agent cut ties with McVisor after that stunt.

Didn't know that about his agent. Shame on that dude for fucking Ballard over like that.

Bang- yep, thank you- oh man he was so trash and just kept getting PT no matter how bad he sucked. I always figured he must have wed Polian's daughter or some shit.

Eagles offensive coordinator Shane Steichen is scheduled to fly to Indianapolis this afternoon, when he is expected to finalize his deal to become the Colts’ next head coach, per source.

Looks like Steichen is going to be an idiot and take the job. He has worked with multiple different types of QBs. All of them have progressed under his tutelage. It makes me think that Richardson is a distinct possibility. Physically he is the only qb in this draft that can compare with Mahones/Allen. It would be a huge gamble but any of these guys are gambles. And Ballard does love physical freaks. 6. If Steichen believes he can get the best out of Richardson it would take time but.......
