Frank Reich fired

[Roundybout]

He went 11-5 with a competent QB. The organization gave him hardly anything to work with. 

[Livinginthepast]

Damn that sucks for him! He did really well in Philly and he had a good start with Indy but it just became untenable this year.  Always have a soft spot for Frank and what he did while he was here! I would definitely take him for an OC!

I was just thinking the same thing. Teams have figured out Dorsey.

I don't think anybody figured out Dorsey, including our team.

Hey Kelly… Pimp for the boy… Let’s bring Reich back as an Assistant… Give him another crack at a SB ring….

With a name like that, he might want to try college football.

Well the 4th Reich was better than the 3rd Reich for sure. 

You mean, umm, the Frankish one

Jeff Saturday 🤣

[78thealltimegreat]

I’d bring him in as an offensive consultant like yesterday.

Saturday in the stadium, I thought it was the 4th of November. 

[Steptide]

I hope the bills hire him in some capacity, but I know they won't. The current front office doesn't have an attachment to him the way us fans do. Wish him the best. Hope he ends up somewhere and has success

Close your eyes and imagine Frank Reich was not some sort of bizzare Buffalo legend.

If he was Tom Smith, you would not want any part of him near Allen or this franchise.

They should have actually tried to draft a QB instead of just going with old retreads every year.

Pretty sure their fanbase is clamoring for more running and smashmouth too.

Depends. He was outstanding with the eagles. I don't know how much of the Colts woes are him or upper management. He was a game away from being in the playoffs with Wentz last season. I think he's a good coach, just maybe not head coach material

I disagree. Poor guy had Carson Wentz when he was good (or he helped make him good), then one year of Andrew Luck, then a parade of losers:

- Brissette, after Luck retired DURING PRESEASON

- Ancient Philip Rivers, who he helped squeeze one more decent season out of

- The Ruins of Carson Wentz again, who he squeezed one more marginally acceptable season out of

- Ancient Matt Ryan, who no one can squeeze a decent season out of

They were primed - designed - to peak in that 2019 - 2021 window; he was just shite out of Luck when Andrew walked out the door with no backup plan in place. Now they have to start over, and that usually begins with the coach and the GM. 

Good coach, bad Luck.

That's like saying Bienemy is outstanding with KC. Nobody really knows. Doug Pederson was calling plays is my understanding

Oh they should have tried to draft a QB?   Same ownership that reached an AFC Championship game with a veteran QB and then positioned themselves a couple years later to draft Peyton Manning and then Andrew Luck and subsequently had almost 20 years of mostly All Pro level QB play should have drafted a QB?    If Josh Allen retires unexpectedly in July with an expensive veteran team having been built around him then I guess Brandon Beane should have drafted a QB in round 1 of the 2023 draft as well.   If anyone knows how to re-set their QB position.........it's the Colts.

What an idiotic statement. I’m sorry but that’s just pure stupidity. Let’s get rid of the coach who’s made us relevant after being doormats for how many years.

 

well, he did include Frazier in that list. 

[Nitro]

Frank went from hero to zero here in Indy.  Ownership and management hamstrung him with poor drafts.  Never went all in and draft a franchise QB.  Too many whiffs in premium draft picks.  Jeff Saturday will watch this team crash and become a top five drafter.
