Please no Greg Roman style offense in Indy.

To me when evaluating the accomplishments. He helped make Herbert into what he is. I like Steichen simply for what he did with Hurts. Everybody thought Hurts was a gasket player at best and they turned him into a franchise QB. I always read that Hurts was a great person with high character. Everyone loves him wherever he went, but they just couldn’t get him molded right. But the Eagles did it. Burrow was a more finished product. But that is just one aspect I’m looking at. Not sure how they interviews or what they had in plan.

I do imagine that Steinchen might align more with the Colts build strategy since the Eagles also emphasize strong line play. So a drastic overal wouldn’t be necessary, just he would be brought to help mold the QB of the future and get that final piece settled.
