Just listened to Holder on the JMV shoe, pretty damn revealing convo and man does it sound like this is a toxic stew of "not my problem" throughout the organization, and I'm going to go out on a limb, but it seems Saturday's biggest frustration may be with Nelson.

Apparently his angered words today were more focused on the lack of reaction from the guys on the field even moreso than the Thibodoux antics. And if you look at the pictures and words he seems to be implying that it's Nelson's job to go knock his head off for it, which I agree with 100%. This team has nothing to play for, who the fuck cares if you get suspended for the final game, go out standing up for your guy, re-confirm your status as the bad ass of the team you careless fuck!

Sadly, I think Nelson has to go. I don't think this is him having problems because the dudes around him suck, I think he can't deal with the losing and has basically taken the "not my problem" approach and doesn't even care anymore. When will he care, how do you gamble on that happening?

Also, and I know these guys have to be careful about what they say for fear of being shut out from intel, but Holder sure as fuck seemed to imply that Frank Reich wanted no part of trying to manage anything other than the play book and that as a result there was / IS no discipline and that Saturday has tried to bring it back but is not having a lot of success. In a lot of words it seemed to parse out as:
This team is very soft
This team is not disciplined
This team doesn't have a culture of accountability
Frank Reich didn't care about any of that, just wanted to put focus on the execution
Both Ballard and Irsay were okay with that until Irsay wasn't
Irsay realized there was no one holding anyone to account- including Ballard so he went outside the organization due to no trust of Ballard's regime
Now Irsay needs Harbaugh and Harbaugh would come here and demand a lot of control
Doubtful Ballard could stand that so he would be gone (good)

So, if Harbaugh says he would come but he becomes Belichek, are we good with that? I would certainly be as I fault Ballard for a lot of this shit. I also think Irsay would likely give Harbaugh the space to make the moves he feels are necessary to improve the team, which I would suspect is cutting a number of entitled players that I don't think Ballard would accept.

Right job means a franchise QB on the roster. We might be on that list considering who we can draft.

Arizona is probably a better opportunity for him to succeed. I’m convinced that No coach worth a shit will want to jump into this disaster.

Arizona needs a system that plays to Murray's strengths. Don't think that is Harbaugh's preference. Harbaugh needs a big QB that can throw it around the field. Levis, Richardson, and maybe Stroud fit that. His current QB at Michigan also.

They couldn’t hire him tonight if they wanted to because of the Rooney rule.

Having said that, there’s no way in hell he’s coming to Indy if he has ANY other offers.

Default Harbaugh

Plenty of competition for his services - but I'd like to see Harbaugh end up as Colts coach. Hire him and send Saturday and Ballard packing.

Harbaugh made an "official" statement that he's staying at Michigan. I saw it on r/Colts if anyone is interested. Colts reddit
