Why Hasn't Jeff Saturday Resigned?

I'm of three minds about Jeff Saturday:

1. Jim is really going to hire him as head coach. He's pissed at Ballard and the overall lack of success and is now in Al Davis (his hero) mode.

2. Jeff Saturday was used, whether he realized it or not, for the dual tasks of tanking for a better draft position, AND getting the Colts on the national radar again. Nobody on the national level was talking about the Colts...at all...until Saturday was hired. Any publicity is good publicity. Part of the conversation again.

3. The whole thing is a smoke screen that accomplishes two things: lower the overall expectations, AND condition fans to be happy with anyone else who's hired simply because "well, at least it isn't Jeff Saturday".

Of course, all of those things can be true. Or none of them. The only truth is that we suck and are in a bad way from top to bottom. I fear the worst, but what do I know?
