No one interviewed him. That doesn't give Cardinals a pass when they ended up with the worst hire of all coaches hired.

His access for an interview was limited due to the Eagles making it to the SB, the only reason McDaniels was aligned with the Colt's HC job is that he was aggressively interviewed due to his golden boy status that he has enjoyed...

FR was fired as OC with the Chargers and the Eagles were seen as Pederson's offense and FR only being the OC in name only. In no way was he considered a hot runner as a candidate...he just happened to be the last candidate standing when McDaniels chucked dueces.

Goes to show you never that you never know until they assume the position.

Bickley likes KK and Gase.

Doesn't like Campbell or Taylor.

Caldwell is fall back option.

Missed the Schefter part.

Wasn't the rumor that Betcher would've had Turner at OC and Pagano as DC?

I think so. But we still could have had them is all I'm saying .

Would have been the safest hire.
I truly believe MB wanted to clean house and have BA’s influence far from the building.

Wilks was a completely incompetent hire. Way over his head, had no idea how to gameplan or X’s and O’s

How the hell did Bidwill and Keim did not even bring Reich for an interview? Freaking embarrassing for multi billion dollar organization.

Let’s be honest, Frank Reich isn’t really doing anything special in Indy. Luck and that o-line has that team rolling right now. They’ve now won 10 of their last 11 games. Most coaches would be successful in Reich’s position.

And they play smart disciplined football on both sides of the ball. Few mistakes.

Oh I agree, I think Kitchens would've been kept on as QB coach under Betcher

This is a bad post.

Colts were almost perfectly balanced today. 220 yards passing, 200 yards rushing.

Houston was the 3rd ranked rushing defense coming into today and it didn’t matter.

Most people don’t realize that the Colts have only allowed 18 sacks all season, including today.

3 of their starters on their O-line are 1st round picks, with their RT Braden Smith being a borderline 1st as the 37th overall pick in last year’s draft.
