Another surprise in Indianapolis: Colts interim coach Jeff Saturday is expected to have 30-year-old pass game specialist/assistant quarterbacks coach Parks Frazier serve as the offensive play-caller starting Sunday against the Raiders, sources tell me and Rapoport

Young but talented, Parks Frazier played QB at Northeast Mississippi Community College and Murray State.

He joined the Colts as Frank Reich’s assistant in 2018, helping with the practice plan, call sheets and scripts.

Now, Frazier is expected to replace Reich as play-caller

Colts passing game specialist Parks Frazier will perform play calling duties for Jeff Saturday's staff, acc to sources. Frazier, to my knowledge, has not called plays at any level.

Parks Frazier knows the current playbook rather well and has worked with Sam Ehlinger behind the scenes to this point. Interested to see how this all looks on Sunday.

After a whopping 121 yards Sunday I am not sure we can get any worse. Hell, I'm onboard. Lets do this thing!!!

At this point, I feel ambivalent about the coaching moves. Maybe we find something with a young guy with fresh ideas? It is going to be a shit show isn't it, looks like I chose the wrong week to stop sniffing glue.

Jim is firmly calling the shots now. It’s gonna suck for quite awhile. May as well embrace the clown show.

What an incredible ride for this dude. What 27 and hired kinda as a research analyst way down the ladder, and at 30 you're OC in the NFL. Crazy shit.

Saw on Twitter, maybe Keefer or Holder. Said he knows the playbook very well. Other than some cold feet and scared shitless he might be ok. It is for certain the other way was not working.

I guess it will be a good time to take up drinking, A LOT...

At 30 people are full fledged surgeons. This isn’t that hard, this is football for goodness sakes. Unitas was considered a savant at calling plays. Guy was not a phi betta kappa type by any means. We will probably be fucked, but don’t blame this kid. It is the same shitty players that got Frank, Brady, Wentz and Ryan fired except now they are upset about Frank and Ryan, I guess, that he has to work with.

I was as shocked as anyone when Saturday was named interim coach. Now that I have had a few hours to digest it all. He has no experience, but what can't he perform that an experienced coach can do? As a player I am sure he understands clock management. I am sure he understands coverages. I am sure he knows how to get the best out of our o-line. This alone will be huge as they have been our Achilles heel all year. Hopefully he lets Gus call the D. If he lets the other guys do their job and him and the kid get on the same page maybe we can close out with some hope for 2023.

Every coach has their first job. He is not bringing bad habits learned from other coaches. Hell, we don't know what he is bringing which makes this that much more exciting. As a fan of Jeff I'm going in on it with no lofty expectations, but I hope he proves all the naysayers wrong.

Good Post.

Saturday will coach players, not just offense, but defense as well. He won't have his head stuck in a play call sheet(even though I think Reich was actually reading bible scriptures).

Saturday will rally guys coach em' up, beat em' down and challenge them.
