Bill Polian was on Dan Dakitch show at noon today. Here are the highlights:

1. Confirmed that he, Peyton, and Marv Levy were all advocating on Frank's behalf to Ballard and Irsay
2. Polian spoke to Irsay several times after the McDickless debacle and Polian confirmed that Irsay STILL has the utmost confidence in Ballard. He puts this debacle squarely on McDickless.
3. Confirmed that Reich has been on Ballard's vetted list from the beginning (meaning long before Clappy got fired) but Reich isn't a self promoter and in fact actively told his agent at the start of the playoffs that he did not want to do ANY interviewing. His singular focus was on preparing for the playoffs / Superbowl. He figured he would get his opportunities next year with good performance in the Playoffs. Once the McDickless debacle happened after the Superbowl he was happy to have the opportunity to compete for the job this year.
4. He assured that Frank will have no problem working with Eberflus and the other coaches already under contract, especially since he's starting so late to build his team. He reminded that when he and Dungy came to town they kept on Tom Moore and Roger Mudd and that worked out ok.
5. Regarding rebuilding this team he acknowledged it will be tough and that Ballard / Reich inherited a much worse roster than he/Dungy did but he has faith that the two will get this thing back on track in the next few years.
6. He reaffirmed his point of view that you need to look to the draft to get the tranformational play makers BUT he did say that given the cap space that Ballard has to play with and given the shape of the roster he expects that Ballard will find some good pieces at good value to begin to shore things up for a year or two while he works the draft for the longer term

Normally I’d mark this down, but I think all of us now are going to wait and see on this one ........

Thankful for:


Josh McDaniels' change of heart.

McDaniels verbally agreed to be the team's head coach before leaving owner Jim Irsay and GM Chris Ballard at the altar when it was time to sign his contract.

McDaniels' decision to remain in New England is the best thing to happen to the Colts outside of Andrew Luck's return and their solid offensive line play ........ it allowed Indianapolis to get a coach (Frank Reich) who has formed the perfect pairing with Luck.

The Colts may not make the playoffs this season, but this franchise is finally headed in the right direction again, and Reich has played a significant factor in that.

Here's a couple of comments from 2 of them.

Josh McDaniels showed exactly what kind of man he is
…and that’s not a man at all. No value in his word and he’s a fucking coward but I don’t hear Pats fans complaining. Reich was a stud for us and I wish him the best, I’m sure he’ll be a man of his word. I’m sure he won’t have coaches relocate their lives and tell them two hours before reupping on their current deal…McDaniels has me heated he’s a little bitch and isn’t worthy of being HC. Fucking scumbag Pats…diseased organization diseased fans I want to keep embarrassing them. They’re public enemy #1 cause the Cowjokes ain’t relevant

Can't wait to root for Reich's Colts to destroy the Pats
Going to be a fun AFC rivalry to watch for years. Or until Brady retires and exposes McD as a clown.
Damn I missed this post. Their fans are brutal. And people think this place is tough.

It’s great that he was “enthusiastically interested” in the Browns job but didn’t even sniff an interview.

Yep, nobody wants that fucking scumbag. I do believe he interviewed with GB, but they didn't want his sorry ass.

McDaniels spurning the Colts last off-season likely was a main reason in the Browns not asking to interview him. Colts general manager Chris Ballard is close friends with Browns general manager John Dorsey, so Dorsey was able to find out everything he needed to know about what happened. Dorsey’s agent was also McDaniels’ agent at the time, but decided to move on from the coach after the Colts drama.

Yeah I don't think the coaches are the issue. Its a talent and injury issue. They are doing a good job with what they have. Imagine scheming for slow WR's that can't get open on their own and a QB that is highly reluctant to throw deep.

Adam Gase is history. I know you didn't mention him, but Lynn is gone too. If I was in charge of the Eagles, Pederson would be gone too.
