Three seasons into his tenure with the colts and despite two playoff appearances coach Reich is on the hot seat with some of the fans.
How do you feel about his abilities at this juncture? IMO he certainly deserve a measure of credit for the teams success however I do wonder how his questionable decisions through the season have affected team confidence. Will we look back on today’s loss as a significant event in his downfall or will year four show marked improvement in his coaching with corresponding results on the field? |

As I just posted in the game day thread, how about a little love for the OL today, no sacks given up!!

Fortunately Jim Irsay is smart enough to know he has the right coach and GM. This roster has done nothing but improve under Reich and Ballard and there's no reason to get rid of either of them. They need to find a QB, but once they do, they'll be competing for a Super Bowl every year.

I’m not nearly as down on Reich as it seems most are.
I was fine going for it on 4th. I figured Buffalo would get points before half and I didn’t think FG’s would beat them. Getting 7 or having them pinned deep was worth the risk IMO. They made some great plays. That’s really the difference in the game - they |

IMO Reich deserves credit and should not be on the hot seat, which seems like a knee jerk reaction to the loss today. Even though today was disappointing, 11-5 and giving probably the 2nd best team in the AFC (and possibly NFL) everything they could handle is overall a really good season and definitely improvement YOY.
There are definitely some things he needs to improve on: - Our end of half/game clock management needs a lot of improvement. - He should probably reign in passing on FGs a bit. Not only did it cost us today, but it should have lost the game at Hou. - He gets too cute on his play calling at times. The set of downs that led to said passed on FG being prime examples. - He definitely needs work on his in game adjustments and inexplicably abandons the run too often. If he cleans up some of that then he'll be a top flight coach IMO. |

Nor did I. I know what he was thinking, but I still don't like the call

I didn’t have a problem with the call. With the investment the team has made on the oline they should be able to convert from the one. And if they failed they had another shot to make the point back (as happened). I don’t think it was the obvious call, but I don’t see it as a bad one.

Reich is ok with me. Just stop getting so cute all the time at the goal line.
No on Wentz. He is too fragile and not that great. Draft a QB, see what’s available on the market. We need accuracy at the position. Rivers missed guys in key situations. Gotta be able to hit open guys. Strengthen the roster. We need pass rush, corner, WR. Hopefully LT isn’t a need yet. Last edited by Chromeburn; 01-09-2021 at 10:15 PM. |

Reich is not and should not be on the HOT seat, he needs to dial back some of his aggression and "cute" plays, but he is a solid coach and I think will continue to get better.
