Frank Reich Still the Problem?

Now that you opened that can………fuck yeah, with not much effort

That game yesterday reminded me of both the Texans games last year. Total domination.

The outcome wasn’t in doubt from the opening kickoff. It was just a matter of how well the Giants played that would determine how much they won by.

The Colts never had a chance in that game.

Depends if they start a rookie QB.

Regardless of whether or not Frank Reich was the problem, the 2022 Colts were 3-5-1 with him as their head coach, and they are now 1-6 with Jeff Saturday as their head coach.


Also, the Colts have been outscored 100-9 in the 4th quarter plus overtime in the 7 games since Saturday took over.

In their last 4 games combined, the Colts have been outscored 73-0 in the 4th quarter plus overtime.

Down 3 offensive coaches what did you expect? The firing of Reich was never meant to find the solution this season, because he was not going to be the solution in any season.

The 2022 Colts are not horrible because of a lack of offensive coaching. They are not horrible because of Frank Reich, and they are not horrible because of Jeff Saturday. They are horrible largely because of the offensive line. Anybody who has been watching the games with an ounce of objectivity can see that.

If you think that it is entirely the OL, then you are sadly mistaken. Have you not noticed the OL improvement under Saturday? Is this OL where we need them to be? Hell NO!

I'll tell you what though, a few times against the Giants, Zack Moss had some massive holes to run through, which JT would've taken to the house.

I said largely because of the offensive line, not entirely.

The Colts have numerous holes to fill for 2023 and beyond ...... the biggest off-season chore will be trying to get the offensive line back to where they were when they adequately protected a 39 year-old, immobile Philip Rivers.

They played so well that they got their starting QB knocked out of the game (and then as has been thoroughly discussed just shrugged their shoulders at the dude doing snow angels next to said knocked out QB).

Mind boggling that people still dispute this.

The line has been marginally better under Saturday but it’s still the worst in football.

Meanwhile, literally everything else has been worse.
