The Blackfish Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 I wonder who Howie gets as his defensive coordinator? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUEagle Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 I kinda liked McDaniels but willing to give this guy a shot. He’s starting from just about rock bottom so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here comes losing for another 4 years before we get a new head coach. Lurie sucks, Howie sucks. I don't know why i even support this team. At the same time you have to remember that Andy was a QB coach and he was on nobody's radar. Nobody was on board with him being chosen. Andy had his flaws that drove me crazy, but he is made it as a HC. Same with Doug. Doug wasn't on anyone's list of candidates. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 I like it, young, comes from a creative offense that runs the ball, low turnover and sack numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike030270 Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 From a Colts message board Quote Boy. That’s... That’s weird. "Alright Carson, we cant get you Reich, but we CAN get you his secretary... eh? Ehhhh?” 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philafan4o8 Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 Trying to figure out how this JAG is more qualified than Byron Leftwich who can't buy an interview... Let me guess, Leftwich production as OC is a small sample size. Or Leftwich has Tom Brady this year. Wonder what the excuse is... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This guy seems to have been around the league a few years and been exposed to lots of different coaches and schemes. The only thing that pops off the stats sheet is that the Colts offense ranked #2 in number of sacks allowed, yet ranked #10 in passing yards. Great! Welcome aboard! As I understand, he was the only coach that Reich specifically requested when he arrived in Indy. If you remember, the colts had already hired most of the assistants for McDaniels and he accepted the majority of them. But he really wanted Sirianni. Since then, Reich has constantly praised him and credits him for his game plan. Other media members have praised him, including Orlovsky. Plus, the colts have been pretty aggressive callers, so we won't be missing that from Doug. Lastly, I have a couple of friends who are colts fans and they're pretty upset that he's leaving. So, all this makes me think he'll be a great coach for us. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vikas83 Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 I know less about him than guys like McDaniels, Daboll, Brady, etc. The small amount I have read is encouraging. Clearly they want to tap into someone who worked with Reich since Frank had success with Carson. Happy with the decision. Thrilled we didn't become a laughing stock by making Duce the head coach. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaliEagle Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 Nick's people skills are better than McDaniels' people skills. You can see that he is comfortable talking to players. So, that should help in terms of getting players to buy in to some degree. The unknown is how well he will do in creating an offense and how he will do overseeing the staff.
