I remember him from the old one. IIRC, he was always talking about being a coach or a former coach, and this experience gave him some sort of deep schematic insight. I think it later either turned out to be completely false or he coached like some minor position of his kid's midget league team..

We basically drove him out of this place with persistent insults and derision. You know, the Coltfreaks way.

Going for the win against Houston the first time is costing the Colts a shot at the division right now, for example.

I believe he taught high school d-line. He was right about a couple things, like technique does matter. Then went off about the whole stance thing, but he was just too dumb to articulate it correctly. So many coaches at that level are just meatheads. Even college-level sometimes. Was the player Muir or Moala he was defending?

Wouldn't scheme choice, effective gameplan development, and good play calling be considered positive effects towards gameday results?

At the end of the day dam, it they had converted you might be saying that "going for the win on 4th down is what gave us this division", vs "Going for the win against Houston the first time is costing the Colts a shot at the division right now, for example"

You can go for it on 4th down. If you miss it's a horrible idea. If you make it it's brilliant. These are the debts a coach must pay.

No, its not. Hindsight is 20/20. I didn't think the Colts would be anywhere NEAR a playoff birth at the beginning of the season. Going for the win against Houston made sense.

1. What did they have to loose? No one thought they could get to overtime let alone beat Houston.

2. I was critical of Reich with the jags loss. Damn take the points. But he was true to form, screw what others think, lets go win.

3. They came from behind to beat Houston. With the same attitude.

The GM and coach are setting the bar. We are GOING FOR IT. BE READY. It's the Colts new normal and I like it.

This team is going to do what they do and if you aint on board, jump off.

That is COACHING.
